There are much bigger fish to fry when building a large network solution, most prominently getting the thing to be debuggable on live machines!
- GoblinSlayer 6y ago>large network solution You basically restrict networking to big monopolists, like Google, but Google likes binary protocols, like grpc, http2 and quic. And if you have a bug in a complex parser, having text won't help debuggability, because the bug is not in text.
- bullen 6y agoI make my own open-source systems, google is going down a very wrong path recently with defaulting to HTTPS and deprecating HTTP. GRPC, HTTP2, HTTPS, WebSockets, QUIC (HTTP3) are all desperate attempts for job safety. HTTP/1.1 is good enough for 99% of human network requirements. If you are depending on google, make sure you have alternatives because they are VERY unreliable long term.
