Drink: Aperol on Ice  |  Topic: JavaScript Closures and The Why of Programming

Many of us focus the majority of our time on learning solutions, tools, npm packages and the rest of 'The How'. In this episode I explain why it's drastically more important to be married the problem, rather than the solution, aka 'The What'. I use the example of JavaScript Closures to demonstrate why it's important to understand the problem before you even begin to discuss potential solutions.
