HTML

What is an HTML attribute? Attributes provide elements with additional information. An example is placing the cursor over an image and reading a text descriptor for that image - that is an attribute for the image element. 
What is the difference between a class and an id? When would you use one vs. the other? A class is used to group a number of elements that will all have similar design characterists. ID is used to target a specific element.

What role does empathy play in your life and how has it helped you?

If I can better understand what somebody is thinking or feeling, their motivations and actions make more sense. As a result of understanding them better, I can develop a better social connection with them. A strong connection is the basis of a friendship or a relationship. In work, a strong connection is the gateway to help foster trust with coworkers.

How does empathy help you build better software?

Active listening is vitally important to making sure you understand project requirements before digging in. Being able to give and receive good feedback is critical when working with a team. It's a great way to keep everybody accountable and to make sure everybody is working toward a common goal.
