Formed in 2009, the Archive Team (not to be confused with the archive.org Archive-It Team) is a rogue archivist collective dedicated to saving copies of rapidly dying or deleted websites for the sake of history and digital heritage. The group is 100% composed of volunteers and interested parties, and has expanded into a large amount of related projects for saving online and digital history.
History is littered with hundreds of conflicts over the future of a community, group, location or business that were "resolved" when one of the parties stepped ahead and destroyed what was there. With the original point of contention destroyed, the debates would fall to the wayside. Archive Team believes that by duplicated condemned data, the conversation and debate can continue, as well as the richness and insight gained by keeping the materials. Our projects have ranged in size from a single volunteer downloading the data to a small-but-critical site, to over 100 volunteers stepping forward to acquire terabytes of user-created data to save for future generations.
The main site for Archive Team is at archiveteam.org and contains up to the date information on various projects, manifestos, plans and walkthroughs.
This collection contains the output of many Archive Team projects, both ongoing and completed. Thanks to the generous providing of disk space by the Internet Archive, multi-terabyte datasets can be made available, as well as in use by the Wayback Machine, providing a path back to lost websites and work.
Our collection has grown to the point of having sub-collections for the type of data we acquire. If you are seeking to browse the contents of these collections, the Wayback Machine is the best first stop. Otherwise, you are free to dig into the stacks to see what you may find.
The Archive Team Panic Downloads are full pulldowns of currently extant websites, meant to serve as emergency backups for needed sites that are in danger of closing, or which will be missed dearly if suddenly lost due to hard drive crashes or server failures.
Question 1
What is the purpose of the setTimeout function?
Executes a function repeatedly at fixed intervals
Executes a function once after a delay
Executes a function immediately
Cancels a delayed function
Question 2
What does the then() method of a Promise do?
Handles rejected promises
Cancels an unresolved promise
Converts a callback to a promise
Handles fulfilled promises
Question 4
What does async do when used with a function?
Makes the function synchronous
Automatically wraps the function's return value in a promise
Stops the execution of the function
Immediately executes the function
Question 5
What is the purpose of the await keyword?
Delays code execution indefinitely
Converts a promise into a callback
Pauses execution of an async function until a promise resolves
Handles rejected promises
Question 6
What is the difference between setTimeout and setInterval?
setTimeout runs once, while setInterval executes repeatedly at intervals
setTimeout executes repeatedly, while setInterval runs once
Both execute functions immediately
Both are used for canceling asynchronous tasks
Question 7
What is the event loop's role in JavaScript?
To execute synchronous code
To prioritize promises over callbacks
To manage and execute asynchronous operations in the call stack
To handle HTTP requests
Question 8
Which queue has a higher priority in the JavaScript event loop?
Callback queue
Timer queue
Render queue
Microtask queue
Question 9
What is the output of the following code?
console.log("A");
setTimeout(() =>
console.log("B"), 0);
Promise.resolve().then(() =>
console.log("C"));
console.log("D");
A, B, C, D
A, D, B, C
A, D, C, B
B, C, A, D
Question 10
What is the purpose of Promise.finally()?
Executes only when a promise is fulfilled
Executes only when a promise is rejected
Cancels unresolved promises
Executes after a promise is settled, regardless of its state
There are 10 questions to complete.
