- One of the big differences is that we didn't write out code in an IDE but rather did it all in the terminal. The process of designing these pipes though drew on the skills of functional programming. - I'm used to writing these kinds of programs in a language like python or java but it's honestly much easier to use the command line tools. - The last exercise tripped me up because I wanted to do it in a way that would for any word, but I wasn't sure how. Is there a way to sort the letters in each word? My solution only works because 'sidebar' doesn't have any repeated letters. - Yeah, I've engaged in the group chat a bit but I don't want to flood the chat. It's hard to gage how helpful my input actually is since we all have differing backgrounds.
