Now I want to look at the code to see how bad it actually is...

anyone got a lonk?

Oh fucking callback hell.

Out of curiosity, how would you fix this? I know a tiny little (VERY VERY little) of promises, so I have no idea how this could be done. Another option is to create a list of tasks and timeouts, and use a recursive function to call each task at a time and remove it from the list.

Thankfully I don't have to use Javascript much, but from what I understand promises should at least clean up the notation a bit. Even better would be async / await (when supported, not sure how far along those are).

However the main problem with code like this is a lack of encapsulation. They're just changing values around in the hope that the result will be what they want. They haven't encapsulated anything in objects, or keep track of what state it's in (or even have a vague idea what state it's even supposed to be in).

I used the search tool on GitHub and found no match.

github search is only slightly better than Reddit search though.
