* `setTimeout()` schedules a script to be run
after a minimum threshold in ms has elapsed.
The order in which they are execute varies depending on the context in
which they are called. If both are called in the main module then you
are bound to how fast your process go, which is impacted by other
programs running on your machine.
For example, if we run the following script which is not within a I/O
cycle (i.e. the main module), the order in which the two functions are
executed is non-deterministic as it is based upon how fast your process
goes (which is impacted by other programs running on your machine):
The order in which the timers are executed will vary depending on the
context in which they are called. If both are called from within the
main module, then timing will be bound by the performance of the process
(which can be impacted by other applications running on the machine).
