GoGaRuCo 2014- The Short and Happy Lives of TCP and HTTP Requests

By, Starr Horne As Rails developers we depend on the network. But if you're new to web development, it's probably a mystery. That's a problem. Knowing how the network works is critical for fixing certain types of bugs and for diagnosing performance issues.

Finally, we'll discuss how this knowledge is used to fix common bugs and increase app performance. Help us caption & translate this video! http://amara.org/v/FTeu/
