Human: I'm hoping to get some job interview practice and I'd like you to act as a panel member in my interview. The interview will be on web development and will mainly focus on knowledge of Javascript, but will also touch on CSS and HTML. Please provide me with 10 questions that I can answer.
Assistant: Sure, I can help you practice your interview skills. Here are ten questions that you might be asked during a web development job interview:

1. What is the difference between null and undefined in JavaScript?
2. How do you implement inheritance in JavaScript?
3. What are the differences between == and === operators in JavaScript?
4. How do you handle errors in your JavaScript code?
5. What is a closure in JavaScript and how is it used?
6. How do you organize your CSS code?
7. How do you optimize website performance?
8. What are the differences between CSS Grid and Flexbox?
9. What is responsive design and how do you achieve it?
10. Can you explain the box model in CSS?
Human: Thanks! Can you provide short answers to question 5, 7, and 9, please?
Assistant: **"What is a closure in JavaScript and how is it used?":**

A closure gives you access to an outer function's scope from an inner function. In JavaScript, closures are created every time a function is created, at function creation time.

Here is a code snippet that may help you understand what I mean:

```
function init() {
  var name = "Mozilla"; // name is a local variable created by init
  function displayName() {
    // displayName() is the inner function, that forms the closure
    console.log(name); // use variable declared in the parent function
  }
  displayName();
}
init();
```

init() creates a local variable called name and a function called displayName(). The displayName() function is an inner function that is defined inside init() and is available only within the body of the init() function. Note that the displayName() function has no local variables of its own. However, since inner functions have access to the variables of outer functions, displayName() can access the variable name declared in the parent function, init().

In this particular example, the scope is called a function scope, because the variable is accessible and only accessible within the function body where it's declared.

There are a variety of ways you can optimize website performance, such as:

- Compression, such as image compression for large image files
- Optimize the user interface & menus

**"What is responsive design and how do you achieve it?":**

Responsive web design examples:
- Dynamically changes a site’s page layout based on a device’s display type, width, height, etc.
- Uses CSS media queries to change styles such as light/dark modes
- A designer creates one flexible layout that changes according to a device.

It usually works best for larger sites that are being designed for the first time.

Here are some options to get started with responsive web design as designing a responsive system all on your own can be challenging.
