Added handling for `onerror` to log on the `error` stream of the console by default, maybe not the best possible behavior, but good for starters. If you have a better idea for this, please change it accordingly.

httpGet
Makes a GET request to the passed URL.
Use XMLHttpRequest web api to retrieve data from the given url.
Handle the onload event, by running the provided callback function.
Handle the onerror event, by running the provided err function.
Omit the third argument, err to log the request to the console's error stream by default.
const httpGet = (url, callback, err = console.error) => {
const request = new XMLHttpRequest();
request.open("GET", url, true);
request.onload = () => callback(request);
request.onerror = () => err(request);
request.send();
}
httpGet('https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts', request => {
console.log(request.responseText);
}) // 'Array of 100 items'
