RAF also stops executing when tab is inactive. Sometimes we don't want our loop halted and that's where setTimeout comes in as the better alternative to setInterval.
- franciscop 5y agoThis is the perfect example of why it says not to ask why you were downvoted in the FAQ, and the last time I try to help. You literally asked, I just tried to give a plausible explanation. Instead you rant back, scream and insult those literally answering your question. Not the right behavior for HN.
- beebeepka 5y agoI provided a real world example that you haven't considered before. Your condescending responses are hardly genuine attempts at finding a plausible explanation for me being downvoted by people who can't think that pointing out thing A is better than thing B even though thing C exists and is the correct approach most of the time.
