In this Live Stream, I cover a wide variety of topics. I first experiment with the CodePen online editor. Then, I take on a (awfully long) Coding Challenge to make "Smart Rockets" that steer based on a genetic algorithm (edited version coming soon). Finally, I discuss how the JavaScript "arguments" array can be used for function and constructor overloading.

50:02 - Coding Challenge: Smart Rockets
2:01:43 - Discussion on Machine Learning
