I like that we're all starting to wake up from this callback nightmare in pretty much every language. It's funny to me that it took us going through a full blown callback orgy for us to realize that all we wanted to begin with was an abstraction of spawning threads and doing non-blocking i/o (makes sense, having to reason about locking is, often, unnecessary). I realize callbacks/lambdas have their place, but it was really starting to chaff.
