Man, I used to love the times when try/catch was used to exception only, and with exceptions that leaves the program in a bad state, I used to think when you see a throw something really bad is going on, not just a simple ajax fail.

Dont know why people love so much async/await. In the end of the day, this all (in node land, for instance) will be just a function call in the libuv, this will never change, this is because the pattern is really good.. Why overcomplicate that?
