using LABjs to load from a CDN, with simple error detection (& timeout), and a local load fallback
function test_jQuery() { jQuery(""); }
function success_jQuery() { alert("jQuery is loaded!");
var successfully_loaded = false;
function loadOrFallback(scripts,idx) {
function testAndFallback() {
clearTimeout(fallback_timeout);
if (successfully_loaded) return; // already loaded successfully, so just bail
try {
scripts[idx].test();

You're Missing the Point of Promises

This article has been given a more permanent home on my blog. Also, since it was first written, the development of the Promises/A+ specification has made the original emphasis on Promises/A seem somewhat outdated.

You're Missing the Point of Promises

Promises are a software abstraction that makes working with asynchronous operations much more pleasant. In the most basic definition, your code will move from continuation-passing style:

getTweetsFor("domenic", function (err, results) {
 // the rest of your code goes here.

BLOCK

Block encapsulates a standalone entity that is meaningful on its own.

While blocks can be nested and interact with each other, semantically they remain equal; there is no precedence or hierarchy.

Holistic entities without DOM representation (such as controllers or models) can be blocks as well.
