Something that interested me this week

It’s hard to believe that I’m about to hit the one month mark at my new(?) job with Remote already. I’m both still drinking from the firehose, learning as much as I can, while also now getting into the swing of things.

I mentioned last week that I’ve been getting back into my side projects… this is pretty much how they’ve gone so far.

Last week, I had you find palindromes in files! Nice work https://twitter.com/leyanlo/status/1485495010191495172?s=20">Leyan, https://github.com/wperron/palgrep">Will, https://gist.github.com/les-peters/c8f0a98a8caa57f56abcc8e98cf609b3">Les, https://github.com/peterlopez/challenges/blob/main/cassidoo/2021-01-24/palindromes.py">Peter, https://twitter.com/rafaelmdribeiro/status/1487147232105279489">Rafael, and https://twitter.com/tzyinc/status/1487799836959453190">Ten!

This week’s question is sponsored by Sourcegraph!
Given an array of people and their timezones in UTC, write a function to return the local time for a given person. Extra credit: add options for a 12 or 24 hour clock!

Example:

let humans = [
	{ name: 'Clara', timezone: 'UTC−4:00' },
	{ name: 'Cami', timezone: 'UTC−7:00' }
	{ name: 'Ximena', timezone: 'UTC−5:00' }
]

$ localTime('Cami')
$ 10:26pm // This will change depending on when you run the function
