39.1.3 Callback-based asynchronous functions :

In the code snippet the second parameter of the callback is named result. But later on in the text, the parameter is called r:

A result r: Then the following task is added to the queue.
taskQueue.enqueue(() => callback(null, r));

I'd suggest to use result in both places.

@AndiPersti True, thanks! Fixed in next release.

In 39.2 "The call stack" section:

Error.prototype.stack is non-standard:

It's implemented in all platforms though. Maybe mention this fact a little bit?

@0fye Yes! Mentioned here: https://exploringjs.com/impatient-js/ch_exception-handling.html#error-stack
