Although there are libraries that run it over UDP, SCTP is really a genuine layer 4 protocol, which means that it needs to be implemented in the OS and supported by NAT gateways. QUIC is intended to always go over UDP, so it can be implemen

All of what led up to that was labeled as unprofessional. That was the whole point of the post.

It might not be correct English, but it's not even remotely difficult to understand what was meant. (In fact, I didn't even notice it was wrong until you pointed it out.)

Well, you say you can kick a ball around in the street, but signs prohibiting ball games are a common sight in the UK at least.

Why didn't you call him out at the time? That's not a dig; I genuinely wonder why. Is he a friend? More influential than you? Did others seem to be agreeing with him?

He appears to answer a slightly different question to the one that was asked, but I agree with what he said in his answer. To be a really good programmer, you need to have a particular kind of brain, and if you do, you will pick everything

The worse thing is that he's saying "you shouldn't spend extra time to do the right thing", and then tries to justify that by giving examples of people doing the wrong thing. Nobody is calling spending weeks writing a ca

Cloud computing and time sharing are not the same thing, though. Time sharing was just a way for multiple people to access the same computer at the same time. In cloud computing, people aren't accessing a particular computer as far as

If a group of people want to be on the same page so they can discuss it, they can choose to watch it at the same pace. Just because a broadcast network isn't forcing them to do that, it doesn't mean they can't still watch i

They're not American in the same way that Canadian numbers are international and not American.

I performed a two-minute manual query on a MySQL database I was told was a backup. What I didn't realize was that it was a live backup, and that it would stop the production database from responding to queries for those two minutes, me

I don't like the bait-and-switch games, but I recently downloaded Avia for free and paid for the Chromecast feature. That seemed like a good use of IAP.

Half the posts on HN and Twitter make me feel excluded for not being a dick in one way or another.

I also can't think of any adult men who would be interested in a pissing up a wall contest, so it's a particularly pointless analogy.

Yeah, but he was right about one bit: "Tell the guy to get his hands off you, grab a seat, introduce yourself."

You'd have them think that a stranger was more important to you than them? I don't think I'd ever give up my own life for a stranger's. Even the thought of my six-year-old son trying to cope with that news is pretty un

Look, this isn't normal or typical behavior, and it doesn't represent how men in tech act towards women in tech. The guy was an asshole. The nature of the event is irrelevant.

Men are put off by nasty, aggressive vibes too. I don't know why you'd think that that's exclusive to women. Men want to work in a friendly, cooperative, supportive workplace where they won't be sworn at or have snide re

As a man, I wonder what makes me assumed to be so unfriendly to women.
