Here's an internet hidden gem for y'all
So I'm fucking around in the network section of Firefox's developer's tools because I'm taking a Django course and I'm looking at the instructor's samples as part of a lecture and I spot this little thing:
and I'm like ????? Sir what are you doing in my browser???
The instructor of this course likes making little references all the time (for example he often uses "42" as a value because of Hitchhiker's), so my first thought was that he is also a Terry Pratchett fan and added him as a value in his sample code, but what is "x-clacks-overhead"?
Well, let me share with you what I found on the X-Clacks-Overhead website:
In Sir Terry's novel "Going Postal", the story explains that the inventor of the Clacks - a man named Robert Dearheart, lost his only son in a suspicious workplace accident, and in order to keep the memory of his son alive, he transmitted his son's name as a special operational signal through the Clacks to forever preserve his memory
[...]
As a way to preserve the memory of Sir Terry Pratchett, the users of the SubReddit for the Discworld series came up with the idea behind the X-Clacks-Overhead HTTP Header. It allows web authors to silently commemorate someone through the use of a non-invasive header that can be transmitted from server to server, or server to client without operational interference.
[...]
At the time of writing, Mozilla.org (makers of the Firefox web browser), the makers of Debian (a popular Linux Operation System), and Xml.com (a major repository of standards information) are examples of some of the backbones of the Internet who transmit the Signal "GNU Terry Pratchett".
It's not that the instructor is making a hidden little reference to Terry Pratchett. It's so much more than that. And I think it's beautiful :')
EDIT: There's more information in the GNU Terry Pratchett website if anyone is interested

For this year's October drawing challenge I'll be drawing my characters I and O going through some HTTP status codes, mostly client errors
I got the idea some months back and thought it would be fun to interpret these in wacky ways

خطای 429 چیست؟
خطای 429 چیست؟
این خطا به شما میگوید که سرور شما چقدر ظرفیت درخواست را میتواند در یک بازه زمانی هندل کند. اگر سرور شما نتواند حجم درخواستها را هندل کند با این خطا مواجه میشود و باید درخواستها بعد از مدتی دوباره ارسال شوند. برای رفع این مشکل توسط کاربر عادی اینترنت راههایی وجود دارد، یکی از این راهها را گفتیم و یکی دیگر تماس با مدیر وب سایت است.
