The best ES6 Promise.delay functions

es6_delay.md

Hello future self, here's the TypeScript version for your copy/pasting pleasure:

const delay = (ms: number) => new Promise(_ => setTimeout(_, ms))

and your favorite JS version:

const delay = ms => new Promise(_ => setTimeout(_, ms))

and a Node.js (>= v16) only variant:

import { setTimeout } from "timers/promises"
await setTimeout(3000)
