call them _Node.js style callbacks_ so let's take this opporutnity to
keep things a bit more concise

<!--type=misc-->

Most asynchronous methods exposed by the Node.js core API follow an idiomatic
pattern referred to as an _error-first callback_ (sometimes referred to as
a _Node.js style callback_). With this pattern, a callback function is passed
to the method as an argument. When the operation either completes or an error
is raised, the callback function is called with
the `Error` object (if any) passed as the first argument. If no error was
raised, the first argument will be passed as `null`.
