> Why? When JavaScript encounters a line break without a semicolon, it uses a set of rules called [Automatic Semicolon Insertion](https://tc39.github.io/ecma262/#sec-automatic-semicolon-insertion) to determine whether it should regard that line break as the end of a statement, and (as the name implies) place a semicolon into your code before the line break if it thinks so. ASI contains a few eccentric behaviors, though, and your code will break if JavaScript misinterprets your line break. These rules will become more complicated as new features become a part of JavaScript. Explicitly terminating your statements and configuring your linter to catch missing semicolons will help prevent you from encountering issues.

> Why? The `parseInt` function produces an integer value dictated by interpretation of the contents of the string argument according to the specified radix. Leading whitespace in string is ignored. If radix is `undefined` or `0`, it is assumed to be `10` except when the number begins with the character pairs `0x` or `0X`, in which case a radix of 16 is assumed. This differs from ECMAScript 3, which merely discouraged (but allowed) octal interpretation. Many implementations have not adopted this behavior as of 2013.

## Methods
- Use arrow functions to close over local variables. It is handy when you need to pass additional data to an event handler. Although, make sure they [do not massively hurt performance](https://www.bignerdranch.com/blog/choosing-the-best-approach-for-react-event-handlers/), in particular when passed to custom components that might be PureComponents, because they will trigger a possibly needless rerender every time.

- Do not use underscore prefix for internal methods of a React component.
> Why? Underscore prefixes are sometimes used as a convention in other languages to denote privacy. But, unlike those languages, there is no native support for privacy in JavaScript, everything is public. Regardless of your intentions, adding underscore prefixes to your properties does not actually make them private, and any property (underscore-prefixed or not) should be treated as being public. See issues [#1024](https://github.com/airbnb/javascript/issues/1024), and [#490](https://github.com/airbnb/javascript/issues/490) for a more in-depth discussion.
