    For a second I thought my github was going viral. ;)

    This is a hilarious (and interesting!) read.

    As a young(er) and slightly shittier web developer, before I really understood or could implement promises effectively (or when my code would ‘race’ and fail to recognize that the DOM hadn’t been loaded yet, so I couldn’t attach event listeners yet), I was known to implement a 2 second timeout.

    It wasn’t pretty, but it worked!
