contact the author of HA node and warn them that as of Node-red 4.0 the callback function will be required to be asynchronous

> tada We have now published the second beta release of Node-RED 3.1. Node-RED 3.x requires at least Node 14.x, but that reaches end-of-life in a couple months. These days you should really be using Node 16 at least or even 18. Having considered 3.1-beta.1 to be pretty complete, we've managed to squeeze in a few new useful features. The [Change Log](https://github.com/node-red/node-red/blob/940a246160f83c534cae26fc1d8c36197cf0033b/CHANGELOG.md) has the full list of changes. You should also checkout the [3.1.0-beta.1 release post](https://discourse.nodered.org/t/node-red-3-1-0-beta-1-released/74644) if you haven't already seen what was in there. And don't for…

Scroll down to `Deprecating synchronous access to JSONata`

I have no idea how to "identify the node from the following stack." Where is the stack? What stack? lol  
please let me know if there is documentation so I can read how to do this. Or it may be faster letting me know IDK. thanks.

Tells you module in second warning  
`opt/node_modules/node-red-contrib-home-assistant-websocket/dist/nodes/poll-state/controller.js:82:30)`  
Find contrib node in flow library, there will be a link to the github page. There you can raise an issue.

You don't have to do anything but let the author know, so they can fix it before Node-red 4 is released.
