Another great tip! Bitwise operators are underrated and forgotten most of the time. Thanks for reminding us that they exist. ...and as always thanks for teaching

I always imagined something similar if I had to write a permission system. Very neat idea. Unix continues to inspire with its clever Ideas 😃. Thanks

Wow !! Never knew the power of bitwise operators. This is 🔥. Would love to see more content like this.

This is the best way to save permissions, if you slit it into categories, each category can have at least 32 permissions. I'm starting to use it cause i have 11 categories and each one has about 10 permissions. This is exactly what I needed to get me started. I'm using arrays for each category :)

Insightful. Thank you for this lesson!

Another very cool tutorial!

Back when the cost of memory was exorbitant, any coder worth his/her salt (myself included) was encoding data like this.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THiS!

This is super confusing that such a high standard of quality for the content didn't attract an appropriative amount of followers, regardless of how the channel has been promoted since its creation. You're a great teacher and I am happy that I found this channel. I will definitely recommend it to everyone who's interested in learning JS. Is there a chance to see some videos on built-in Data Structures in JS and its core mechanics?

this.access &= ~perm can also be removed

Steve and Joanne out here dying of thirst

for remove function, this.access &= ~perm does the job without checking it

Hi Steve, was trying this out along with the vid and I figured maybe we could check for presence of a permission before removing with XOR this way: if (this.access & permission) { this.access ^ permission } Not sure but seems to make sense. Quick question to go along with this, though: How come you choose to not go with labels for the console log of available permissions? Is there any advantage to having nums there which we'd have to look up to know what they reference?
