Having a hard time positioning image

I have the following layout (first picture is actual, second is Figma). I want the image to bleed to the edge of the screen. I'm having trouble making this image look good when I do that. It's an svg with a clip path. I've made a grid element that 'breaks out' of the container. grid-template-columns: 1fr 800px 800px 1fr...

What is a proxy in JavaScript, why is it useful?

From what I've read, a proxy is just an object that "wraps" another object and do things on its own and decide whether or now to use the initial object. But this is still vague in my mind it's not clicking, proxies are just like proxies in general, like when someone does an action on your behalf, right? Here, why is it useful, what kind of things can we do with it please.

Understanding Promises

Hey guys, I don't quite understand this, it seems quite cyclical? It seems to be defining a term using the term itself?

Promises have two possible mutually exclusive fates: resolved, and unresolved. - A promise is resolved if trying to resolve or reject it has no effect, i.e. the promise has been "locked in" to either follow another promise, or has been fulfilled or rejected....

Confused about APi term

I never quite understood the definition of "API", it's been years now For me in the beginning, it was fetching data from some server like twitter api, discord api, and reddit api, API acts the bridge. But then in MDN docs, some stuff (maybe methods i dont remember) is declared as API. Also, now im reading about promises, its called an API too: https://davidwalsh.name/promises ...

What should the new masonry syntax be called?

The CSS Working Group has resolved to add a new display type for what we've been calling masonry, but it will not be display: masonry. I plan to submit a comment on the issue (which you can find here, but I'm curious what others think about it as well. One thing they have agreed on is the word "grid" should be be included in the name, and at this point I believe there is no fighting that (I also think it's a good call for a few reasons, but I won't worry about those yet)....

Angular 20: Standalone + Zoneless New Standard or Project Specific?

With Angular 19 making standalone the default and v20 pushing zoneless change detection, do you see this combo as the new go to for most projects, or still a case by case call? I’ve found modules great for big apps with heavy navigation and varied UIs, while standalone components really shine in smaller apps or those built from many independent pieces rather than full page to page flows. It goes without saying that you can achieve the same build with either approaches and i am aware of that, tha...

defer vs async keyword in script tags

Hello, quick question, I know that both defer and async will load our external javascript file at the same time as our HTML parser is working. The difference is that defer will only be "triggered" after the HTML parser has been completed. On the other hand, the async keyword would mean that "run the external file whether or not the HTML parser has completed". I always make use of the defer keyword, so I wanted to know some use cases where async is used, any idea please....
