Anybody in web development should read this book. I can feel the eye-rolls. I have done web development since the late 90s, and it is amazing how little I know about HTTP 1.1, let alone the recent HTTP 2. I like to do deep dives into all kinds of topics, so I recognize that many web developers may not want to spend time on this.
Let me just say that it is short, although not always easy to read. It gets into some details that most of us won't need to know, but the overarching ideas we will need to know. I suppose many folks can get the big ideas from blog posts and articles already on the internet. I just like having all the details in a book on my shelf with a familiarity of what is in the book in case I want to deep dive on a nuance at a later date.
I am nuts about books. I read on all kinds of topics. I attempt to review each book I read for the sake of my own enrichment as well as conversation starters with others.
You never know what you will find in an attic! Usually there is a hodgepodge of things buried under dust.
Most of what is included here are notes to myself. The majority of folks will not find interest in these posts.
