The Push to Ban Ransom Payments Is Gaining Momentum
Ransomware costs victims an estimated $30 billion per year and has gotten so out of control that global support for banning payments is gaining momentum.

Find the symmetric difference of two arrays of objects by comparing a a set of shared properties
Because before I was using ramda like so to calculate a symmetric difference: symmetricDifferenceWith(eqBy(props['a', b']))
. Turns out that when either one of the input lists has more then ~ 100 elements, ramda starts to get really slow when calculating the symmetric difference. I love ramda but the performance of this usage of ramda became a pain point for me recently and so I decided to roll my own with a specific focus on solving the symmetric difference between two arrays of objects by analysing a list of shared properties.
I have included some basic tests if you want to see for yourself just how much slower ramda takes for this with marignally larger arrays: Clone the repo, run yarn
or npm i
, then yarn test
or npm t
.
As a nice side benefit, this package is dependency-free. No getting tons of extra packages shoehorned in to your project just because you want to use this one.
npm i sym-diff-by-props
or yarn add sym-diff-by-props
then:
const symDiffByProps = require('sym-diff-by-props');
const list1 = [{ a: 6, b: 'foo' }, { a: 3, b: 'adderall' }, { a: 5, b: 'chocolate' }];
const list2 = [{ a: 3, b: 'adx' }, { a: 6, b: 'foo' }, { a: 5, b: 'chocolate' }, { a: 3, b: 'adderall' }, { a: 6, b: 'foo' }, { a: 50, b: 'crazy' }];
const symDiff = symDiffByProps(['a', 'b'], list1, list2);
console.log(symDiff); // [{a: 3, b: 'adx'}, {a: 50, b: 'crazy'}]
