Wow. Now if they could just figure out why my news feed has said "Something Went Wrong" at the bottom for about the last year or so.

#42I am really happy Google and others are pushing QUIC, but for only one main reason: networks that disallow UDP will now be considered "broken." Without something to push UDP usage its possible we could end up with a TCP-only Internet that would make P2P connectivity more or less impossible.
I expect HTTP/2 and HTTP/1.1 will still be with us for decades; orgs that block UDP will be able to continue to do so, and the rare HTTP/3-only website will just be inaccessible.
Even if there's a new killer app that requires QUIC, I imagine an org backward enough to disallow UDP will just not care about that app.

Maybe someday a giant will push UDP broadcast. That would be neat.

Who disable UDP in 2020?
Schools tend to have it blocked.

#45I feel like I belong in the minority who like the new Facebook SPA. It loads shockingly fast on my computer, almost instantaneous even

It's almost like Windows 95! I click something and then it just happens, immediately!
Funny how people forgot that you actually can make (web)apps fast.

#48Earlier quoted context omitted.
I’ll take that bet and I will give you a generous 1:10 bet odds ratio. So, if you give me $1000 dollars as your stake then: - If you are wrong I get to keep the whole $1000 - If you are correct then I will give you $100 of your money back. (Leaving me with $900 of your money still hehe). In other words what I am saying is, I think you are correct in what you said ;)
FYI, what you wanted to say was 1 for 10, not 1 to 10. Like craps odds when betting on the don't side, where you win less than what you bet. But it's important to point out that even with 1 for 10 odds, you still get your original stake back plus the extra 1.
Thanks for clarifying. Guess it's a good thing I never tried to enter the betting industry haha

#49Nice, can we now make Facebook look not like it was created in the early 2000?
Am I the only one bothered by that? I rarely use Facebook (I used it only when I had to, and never created by own profile, always some temporary ones), so maybe the content is king there, but the UI is very dated.

On which platform is the ui outdated? IMO it looks pretty good
