One fun note: generators are the foundation of async/await syntax. Under the hood, when you create an async/await function, the JS engine creates a recursive generator where all the awaits are converted into yields, and the promises you're awaiting get a .then tacked on which calls the generator's next() method. Without generators, async/await wouldn't be possible :)

That dynamic import part was mindblowing. I can see it being useful when you're making API calls to refresh the data of an application. There are many instances where the source is only updated weekly or monthly so instead of making API calls with every load. You could do some date checking first and then refresh the data if it is out of date. Great stuff as always Kyle!

Nice Video Kyle! Enjoyed it like most of them! 5:40 The in operator also looks at the prototype chain. Using object_name.hasOwnProperty(property_name) will search only for that property within the object. But in operator will search for the property within the object and if not found will search the prototype chain. In certain cases we need to consider that.

In the generator you could have just done `yield id++` since the ++ executes after the yield statement. You probably already know this but just in case, you can also reverse that syntax (`yield ++id`) to ensure the ++ executes *before* the yield statement :)

I get ragged on constantly for talking too fast; once I taped a kind of infomercial and they needed four takes at one point to get useful footage because even me purposely slowing myself down left them clueless at how to make me clearly enunciate. So I really appreciate that I can hear and understand you perfectly fine at 2x speed. It saves me time but also means that you're not losing people like I am with my meandering babble speed.

Regarding the first example about block statements. While nothing you say is wrong, sometimes it's a case of "Just because you can, doesn't mean you should". The part about "redeclaring" variables in a new scope with the same name as in the outside scope does work, yes, but once you start to think in the direction of Clean Code it's not necessarily good practice. Because it actually makes it a teeny tiny bit harder to understand that code for outsiders/other maintainers of that code. There is even an eslint rule that checks that. But the rest of the video and your examples were very good, thanks!
