    Main takeaway: UDP is sexy, TCP not so much. Did I miss anything? 🤔

          That was the joke. Data sent through UDP might be lost in transport and there’s no mechanism in the protocol to catch that fault. Whereas TCP does have a way to recover from such an event.

          I’m so confused as to if this is a “whoosh” or if I’m the one "whoosh"ing.

        True, yeah, that stateful back and forth communication elevates it to a whole other level. “Harder”, “more”, “stop it!”, “don’t!” and so forth.

          UDP is bacteria, TCP is eucaryptic cells. More organized, less random stuff floating around.

          enables higher levels of organization and more complex systems.

            UDP packets are suicide bombers and TCP packets are undercover operatives.
