QUIC connections can negotiate an idle timeout once during the handshake, and never change it. Perhaps it would make sense to make it mutable? I'm not sure! My slides from IETF 126 github.com/quicwg/wg-ma...

I'm watching Angel as a mindless guilty pleasure. In S2 E9, they seem to have forgotten to green screen the demon's lower half after it got chopped off. Not sure if this is due to 16:9 aspect or if the booboo was aired

Second patent cube has arrived, so I guess it can formally be called a collection.

Two metal and plastic cubes on a shelf. On the front of each cube is a printed Lava lamp, with patent number and inventor name.

That feeling when you spent weeks of people time investigating a problem, then find an open bug from ~10 years ago that sounds eerily the same: issues.chromium.org/issues/41161...

Imagine a world with a common stream multiplexing capability, usable over any reliable ordered substrate (TCP, QUIC, Unix sockets, etc), and decoupled from any specific application layer. Interested? See my slides from this year's HTTP Workshop at github.com/HTTPWorkshop...
