1. I promise you shouldn't fear rejection January 2025

   Pop quiz for node.js users — what does this program output if the promise resolves, and what is different if it fails to reject through its else branch?

   async function main() {
   	const promise = new Promise((resolve) => {
   		setTimeout(() => {
   			if (Math.random() > 0.5) {
   				console.log("We win");
   				resolve();
   			} else {
   				console.log("We lose");
   			}
   		});
   	});
   	await promise.catch(console.error);
   	console.log("Looks like we made it");
   }
   
   main();
