It's kinda a wild fact that there are these Internet Protocols that are used extremely widely, but knowledge how they work is scarce.
For reasons, I just wondered a few things about OCSP. That's part of TLS, and, idk, most people would probably attribute "knowledge of TLS" to me.
Yet... I kinda know what OCSP does, but... I don't really know how the protocol works.
And if I google for something like "easy explanation of OCSP", I don't find a…

TIL: Besides UTC, there also is TAI – Temps Atomics International aka International Atomic Time. And well … TAI currently is UTC 37s 🤯

And everyone from tech enthusiasts to Mark Zuckerberg and Jack Dorsey seem to want in.

DeltaChat is a cool idea but should be cranked to the max. Fuck protocols, instant messaging has never been been about the protocol but the network effect.
Not everyone knows how to login to their email outside of the web browser, a chat client should facilitate speech between you and your friend’s favourite app.
