Don't know about TCP. In the 90s, I hand implemented a data/file transfer protocol over trunking radio - a very data unfriendly medium with pretty bad loss rates. I thought about "I lost a packet" message, but if it got

I had similar experience. Had a quintuple bypass at 36. Lots of emotions and reevaluations of things. Will I see my kids grow up - things like that. I had to relearn walking. But it also served as a good kick in the behind in terms of ta
