Nice article! 👏

Btw just adding to the `~~x` tip, bitwise operators only work with 32-bit numbers, so if you have a number that could be greater than 2147483647, you'll likely get inaccurate results, and should use Math.floor.

Also an alternative to `~~x` is also `x | 0` (or `0 | x`, `x << 0`, etc.)
