I'm in no way an AI hater. It has some very good use cases. But in the commercial world, if you are promoting a product or service, the phrase "AI-powered" translates to "didn't read the room". The majority probably don't see that as a plus? (I could be wrong!)

Boost if you will to get coverage. The results will be interesting if enough people vote.

Hey #JavaScript hive mind! I once again seek advice:

Is there a way to tell the browser to hold the reflow? A callback maybe that's guaranteed to complete before reflow starts? I'm updating a bunch of flex elements' styles (including flex-basis) and I only want the reflow to happen once my code has completed.
