When you realize that SMS is a hack and not a service that was designed from the ground up to do what it does it isn't all that surprising really.

- mikro2nd 5y agoThis is true. However, email is explicitly not a reliable/guaranteed delivery system, so, despite the fact that is is really quite reliable, we keep that in mind when designing systems that make use of that channel of communication. SMS? Not so much. Idiots persist in thinking of it as reliable/guaranteed.
