This reminded me of a random HN submission. Someone was reading a terms of service agreement out loud. And I think that audio was like 20 minutes long, and only a minor joke in the background of a webpage that was an even bigger joke or parody. Does that sound familiar to anyone?

I didn't know RFC 2119 by number, but it was the first one I ever read. What was your first RFC experience?

  • luckystarr a day ago

    RFC 821, the original. I operated a mail relay some lifetimes ago and I knew this one by heart.

    RFC1459, the IRC one. I wrote the QuakeNet channel services once upon a time.

    POP, for which I implemented a client. A webapp to read your mail. In C. Awful to our modern ears, but the functionality was something of an achievement at the time.

    RFC 1034 for me.

That was hilarious. Also kudos for paying a person instead of using AI to generate it.
