I have this problem with splice and slice too

[galaxyLogic → kondrei]

I try to get by with slice() since it is simpler to understand. Semantics is "taking a slice". splice() has a meaning of not only splitting but also putting slices back together, and is used less often. I too always have to look up its definitions from docs, partly because I use it so infrequently.

Oof same, I'm always going back to the docs for these

I somehow remembered that with : splice is more „evil“ because it changes the original. I know, it makes no sense ..

MAC address is unique but I think this is not send across the internet. I don’t know want do you want and how you will use it.

Since recently, you can't obtain the Mac address through iOS system APIs, you'd have to make a network request to retrieve it.
