Notes
September 9 Node
Web Browser <-talks to-> Server
how? http <-- Stream of text or data byte stream from tcp and puts syntax on it tcp <-- turns packets into continuous stream, controls sending, reordering etc ip <--packet based ethernet/wifi/...
now: Browser <-talks to-> Server program talking to program (embedded in html document that was loaded)
most of data on internet is encoded in http or smtp code that runs inside of browser is known as sandboxed everything you care about is in the sandbox
google tracks and monetizes you you are the product
bandwidth: how much can I get at once? latency: when I make a request, how long does it take for me to get the first bit
gmail has all kinds of code built in to predict what you want and predicts which emails you're going to want to read constantly modelling your behaviour to work well
Server (not actually going to learn any of these languages)
PHP
servlets
apache
rails
node.js is javascript
Why? runs pretty fast
chromes v8 javascript engine and stuck on the server
on browser access the DOM
browser manipulates the DOM
no DOM on server
learning javascript running on server first THEN on the browser Server puts together an HTML document that it sends to the browser and then using this they talk to each other - can't trust the browser. - browser keeps no secrets - any data sent to server has to be appropriately validated
Database is persistent data structure for servers -relational database
callbacks -> asynchronous I/O - here is some code, do this when ...
processes threads : -start new thread - heavier weight than you want - not efficient
