Is there another alternative out there? I feel like the mozilla developer docs are the only thing that comes to mind offhand.

You answered your own question. MDN has far better docs.
htmldog: http://htmldog.com/ is good resource. i know this is a far stretch but they're some really good books out there for quick referencing...i know it's not as fast as opening a new tab, but some of the books: "the definitive guides" are great.

i generally write code at my desk more so then on the go, so i always have those books handy

Tizag, which is second in the results, is a pretty good resource.

Their Perl tutorial set is pretty terrible. They call it "PERL" (it's Perl), they believe the latest stable version is 5.10 (it's 5.14) and the code samples are simply awful.

The Opera Web Standards Curriculum, though it isn't a reference, is a fantastic resource for beginners.

Unfortunately they seem to have moved it onto w3c's domain and now it looks completely awful: http://www.w3.org/community/webed/wiki/Main_Page

http://javascripture.com is a pretty quick reference for just javascript. http://dochub.io has MDN docs plus some others in a nice, consistent view.
