"networking" in the social sense or in the administration/programming sense?
Good one π€£ I don't think I have ever used the word to mean "managing social networks" or the likes π€£
It's a trick question anyway, most programmers are probably bad at both Γ
Except Lain οΊ
I am so going to start to use computer networking terminology when talking about social networking from now on.
ACK
200 OK
Connection Timeout
502 Bad Gateway
ARP ARP ARP ARP ARP
(like a socially acceptable seal)
Cicadas be like
SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN SYN
I would ping her, but I have no handler in the event of NACK
It is very common to use ACK in social contexts as well if you work in IT I have found. Like "had a meeting about that issue, awaiting ACK from John"
Yes, and there's "tACK" and "uACK" for tested and untested acknowledgements of patches. Slightly shorter than "lgtm, your call".
She was SYN flooded, if y'know what I mean...
RST + complementary shoulder to cry on
TCP RST, find it what it means to me, TCP RST, Take out UDP! Socket to me, socket to me...
I proposed to that girl, she sent me a 403 code
403 connection not found.
