    1. Today's #WTF #JavaScript snippet. The following code loops infinitely. Apparently the Set iterator dynamically updates with new data added to the Set. This applies *even* when you explicitly call .values() before iterating.
      A JavaScript code snippet which reads: ``` const set = new Set([1]); for (const value of set.values()) { console.log(value); set.delete(value); set.add(value + 1); } ```

    You have to do Array.from(set.values()) to fully snapshot the state first, before you can safely iterate over it with mutations.
