Main takeaway: UDP is sexy, TCP not so much. Did I miss anything? 🤔
I’d tell you a udp joke but you might not get it.
I need to grow up some time. Shoot!

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.
TCP is for business (a.k.a. paying your invoice) and UDP is for fun (a.k.a. your voice chat).
business meetings have entered the chat
Could have been an email.
have a UDP joke, but I don’t care if you get it
wanna hear a TCP joke?
Ack
SYN
network guys have the best connections for these jokes.
Perfect for the laymen and expert alike. No notes.
Shutup UDP ur drunk
UDP by itself has no state management, but some protocols will do state management at higher levels while using UDP as the transport
Yeah, because ultimately UDP is just IP with ports and a checksum added on top, you can do anything with it you can do with plain IP, including reliable transport.
