Dear everyone who helped with these videos, I'm amazed at how awesome your videos are. I'm so amazed, that I'm sad now that I have to wait a whole other week for a new episode. I've been binge watching these episodes for almost a week and a half now. Also, Carrie Ann, you're such a great person and teacher. Please don't ever quit explaining things. Or talking. I love everything about the way you convey information in these videos.
The world wide web is what got me into computer science. A friend showed me the basics of writing HTML in 1994 during my Freshman year if college. I changed majors and have been a web delevoper ever since.
Dear Carrie, I really like the way you pace your videos - normally I can't stay focused on a technical video but yours are great - my attention is held and i am remembering what I learn - thank you!
The issue with the claim that competition would discourage bad behavior among ISPs is that they often operate as oligopolies and/or local monopolies. When you only have one or two choices of where to get your internet, it's very easy for a small handful of corporations to collude for their mutual benefit, working against the consumer's best interests. If you look at two of the most unpopular industries in America, cable companies and airlines, you can see the oligopoly model in effect. When Comcast and Time Warner only have to worry about competing with each other, it's not difficult to see why both can get away with treating their customers poorly.
The issue you brought up was created by the government restricting ISP competition. Net neutrality calls for the governemnt to fix a problem created by the government.
I sincerely appreciate the effort you put into creating these informative videos! I love learning and I firmly believe the basic concepts that you explain should be common knowledge in todays highly digitalized world. Once again, I extend my heartfelt thanks for your invaluable contributions.
It probably would've been a good idea to point out that HTML files are divided into and . The stuff you see on the "webpage" are all encapsulated in the tag. Meanwhile, the sends implicit information to your browser like the webpage's title, author, and other metadata like language scripts (UTF-18, etc.) that helps the browser understand and render webpages properly.
+blauerninja To be completely pedantic, was actually made optional in HTML5. You can write, e.g. Page Title Some paragraph text and that completely conforms to the HTML5 specification (but not HTML4), even though there's no tag, and even more disgustingly, appears outside of a scope! Furthermore, was introduced in HTML2, and so is not one of the 17 tags in original HTML that Carrie referred to, and seemed to restrict herself to using in the examples.
Yup, that last bit is the important bit. Historically, these are the only HTML tags that existed when HTML was first created: www.w3.org/History/19921103-hypertext/hypertext/WWW/MarkUp/Tags.html
Seriously speaking, this stuff is unnecessary for her purpose, which was to simply have some basic output on the browser, for the newbies' pleasure. In fact, she didn't even enclosed the paragraph in a p tag. She only used a few html tags which have a visual effect on the page.
I'd like to point out some of the flaws in the competition argument: 1. the EU tried it for about a year or two...it didn't go well 2. some ISPs have virtual monopolies of coverage in some places where they have no competition 3. even with competition bigger richer companies still have an advantage they can pay to prioritise themselves 4. un-throttling a website could be seen as a business opportunity likely only doing so in pricier networking plans 5. if ISPs ACTUALLY believed this argument repealing net neutrality would change literally nothing to them the rule change would be inconsequential and they wouldn't be lobbying the goverment so hard to get rid of it
God, I remember learning this stuff in, what, the year 2000? 1999? The high school I went to INTRODUCED a Computer Studies subject that taught this stuff. No other school in the area did. I didn't think much of it at the the time, but my school really was ahead of its time.
Where are you posting from? In the small town where I live, there's a wide choice of providers, even though there's only a single network of connections.
It's bizarre to me that you decided to present net neutrality ... Naturally. All puns aside, net neutrality is essential to a healthy internet. Even with net neutrality in place, ISPs have been caught violating it for their own financial gains.
Competition takes care of it if the government stays out of it. Unfortunately, the government grants ISPs monopolies, so this is an example of asking government to fix a problem created by government.
Great video! This is the stuff my professor was talking about in my CS class last week. Also I hope you guys can make a separate video about net neutrality.
Another oddity I spotted was the sample page address, ending "/courses" without any specification of filetype. That suggests it's really the name of a folder, not an actual page.
+PastPresented Yeah, but that's common practice for hyperlinks to lead to folders with an index file. I wouldn't say it's an oddity, but yeah could be slightly misleading if someone knows nothing about the subject.
+PastPresented +snowdudelester or it could be a site that says "since we don't allow folder indexing, anyway, we may as well alias 'no file type' to '.html'" - especially common in sites that have a single gateway program and have something like this at the very bottom of their rewrite list (in apache): RewriteRule /(.*) /content.php?page=$1
Yes it could, but as an example of how html (by itself, and, by implication of the preceding couple of sentences in the narration, as originally conceived) works, that's not helpful.
The point is that thecrashcourse.com/courses is the *actual* url of their example page - thecrashcourse.com/courses.html gives a (custom) 404 error. So I was just speculating as to why.
If you escalate bad behavior, it eventually works. You usually need to directly affect your customers first, though. And they need other easily-accessible options if you want the market forces to act quickly.
In theory it would in a perfectly competitive market. Most markets today (and especially the ISP market) are not perfectly competitive, indeed the ISP market is an oligopoly.
Timothy McLean Except there is no competition for ISPs to begin with. The telecommunications and information market has long been rum by these companies that work together to reduce competition by dividing up the country into regions where only one service is available. It allows them to rake in money hand over foot while disregarding any form of customer service.
As a lifelong web developer, it pains me to suddenly realize that I am literally as old as HTML itself, and older than all search engines... ...I thought I wasn't supposed to feel old until at least age 30?
You mention competition as a possible discouragement for bad behavior but do not bring up that there is often at best little to no alternatives to customers, especially at cable or fiber speeds.
I think net neutrality could have been it's own video or just a tiny comment... a political and philosophical 4x4 just hit me in the face after a load of raw facts...
It probably should be its own thing, since it's a bit complex but I do commend CC's attempt to tie history and technical info into current events--it's all related and important. But I won't pretend that both sides of the argument are equally valid here.
I'm just the guy who doesn't want all of the keys to net neutrality in the government or any dedicated government branch. They might be neutral in the proper setting, but all it takes is time, and corruption can make it not so neutral anymore.
Agreed; whilst it's nice to initiate a discussion, this is supposed to be a purely informative series, and so such additions start to date the video over time, when perhaps net neutrality is a topic of discussion lost to history.
Could you explain web development furthur please? The way you put it makes it so much easier to wrap your head around complex matters. If you could talk about the corporate languages or whatever they are supposed to be called like React, Angular, twitter bootstrap and why they were made available it would be so amazing. You are making smarts sexy again btw.
"I want to reiterate, this is just conjecture." If there were to be some kind of anti-alchohol legislation passed, Al Capone could make a lot of money from illegal booze sales, and probably wouldn't want to declare that money on his tax returns. This is just pure conjecture, though.
Matthew Mather I mean, _technically_ we don't know what a lack of net neutrality in an uncontrolled market would do. We're just confident about what would benefit corporations, which lines up with what they were lining up patents for once the future of net neutrality started to be questioned. It's more like "Our models indicate that it wouldn't be healthy to visit Mars without a space suit, but this is just conjecture."
Yeah, it's not conjecture. Comcast has been caught several times violating net neutrality. This whole public push for Net Neutrality rules started in 2013 when they throttled Netflix for all of their customers until Netflix paid a ransom.
Yup, that was a mess. I was working for another ISP at the time that was happening and unofficial word at the water cooler was they were waiting to see how the case turned out before they decided to whether or not to try something similar. It's not just Comcast. It's ALL the ISPs that need to be dealt with, but Comcast is pretty much the leader in unpopular decision making that other ISPs watch and learn what they can get away with.
It was repealed. Nothing happened. Comcast would be really dumb to throttle websites, given they have a lot more competitors these days than they used to. People would obviously just switch ISPs, and any ISP who didn't would have guaranteed customers. I know some people can't switch, and that's a huge problem (although luckily shrinking due to satellite and cellular based ISPs), but it's a separate issue with totally unrelated solutions.
"Would leave their ISP and get another." Like who? The big boys have it locked up, and they don't play fair. You are stuck with one ISP, maybe 2 if your lucky.
Here's a very basic yet common interview question for getting into the IT industry: Explain the difference between HTTP and HTML. Better know the difference, lol.
Need some Quotes around those HTML Links. The Net Neutrality probably could have been left out and more information about the web could have been used for more Web info. Apple's Hypercard Released in 1987 could have been the first web browser, but apple never saw its potential.
I am really glad to hear you offered the con side of the net neutrality debate. I've come to expect a very socialist and big government leaning from Crash Course commentary, and pretty much anything presented or influenced by the Vlogbros. When you started talking about net neutrality, I expected you to simply say something like "without net neutrality, unscrupulous ISPs could control what you see and how, and no one really wants that, do they? Moving on..."
If I had a choice in internet provider, do you think I would be paying $70/month for 10 Mbps? The US internet industry is uncompetitive in many places.
In Spain, we pay the same for 300mbps simmetrical (so 300mbps down, 300mbps up). And that's with each company (mostly foreign companies) setting up its own fiber network infrastructure; they only borrow lines from the national company for long-reach ADSL. We get 20mbps ADSL for around 30 dollars at out summer home. Oh, and that's for commitment-less contracts; one-year contracts are even cheaper.
The idea that both sides of any argument have an equally valid point is a fallacy, and drives me nuts. I understand CC wants to be neutral and let people think for themselves but in this case, CC was overly kind to the anti-NN side. The idea that traffic shaping/QoS is a "pro" for the anti-NN side is preposterous. ISPs can and do (and should) throttle traffic based on data/application TYPE. Live video and real-time applications (e.g. gaming) should be given priority over something like email. NN doesn't want to take that away. NN prevents ISPs from throttling traffic based on factors such as source (partners vs others), subscriber status (unsubscribed, subscribed, premium, etc), and content TYPE (such as political viewpoints that special interest groups dislike), which as you can understand is fertile ground for abuse. This is equivalent to the ridiculous scare tactic of shouting "Obama is coming to take ALL of yer guns away!!!"
I know CC wants to be neutral and present two sides to any particular issue, and let people figure it out for themselves but NN is not a good example. The recent anti-NN crusade is pushed by lobbyists influencing politicians, and supported mostly by fear mongering. Most people see right through the "BUT, FREE MARKET" argument because the monopolies are pretty obvious, but I do worry that some people will think that anti-NNers are *actually* interested in "speeding up the Internet."
I appreciate the effort to be (heh) neutral in this debate but I do think it crosses a line into being objectively misleading to present the claim "you can quit your ISP if you don't like their practices" without mentioning the fact that in many areas certain ISPs are monopolies with no competitors. Sometimes it really isn't a "one side says this but the other says this" thing, especially when one side is being deliberately misleading...
html was a simplification of sgml, developed by the DoD, so it's incorrect to say http was developed for the worldwide web. Markup languages, it could be said, really evolved from copyediting and compositing/phototypesetting, or for that matter, hot metal typesetting.
Another major danger of killing net neutrality is the potential for ISPs to throttle the content of sites they don't like for political reasons. You could have one ISP with a conservative owner throttling left wing sites, one with a liberal owner throttling right wing ones. You could have companies with ownership from China or Russia throttling information on stories about them to spin it one way. The implications are far-reaching and extremely dangerous.
I would have really felt better if you had kept the net-neutrality bit out. This should be a series on how computers and the internet work, not how companies are treating the infrastructure. I am pro Net-Neutrality, but this is not the forum for it.
If the old addresses don't redirect to the new ones, they messed up. I hate when old sites link to urls that get redirect to homepages. Adds an extra wayback to what should be one click navigation.

Gopher never gets any love. Poor little guy. Thank you for distinguishing between Web and Internet.
I love gopher... while it can't do advanced things, theres a lot to appreciate about its consistent interface and lack of bloat.

Just wanted to say how helpful and well made this series has been. I never comment on Videos, so you know how much I think of CCCS :) Thanks!
The argument that customers would providers that played fair would work if most people actually had a choice in provider.
Where are you posting from? In the small town where I live, there's a wide choice of providers, even though there's only a single network of connections.
donciclon yeah I only have two
It's fabulous that they've, unlike many a UA-cam channels, provided two sides to the question of net neutrality.

Agreed; whilst it's nice to initiate a discussion, this is supposed to be a purely informative series, and so such additions start to date the video over time, when perhaps net neutrality is a topic of discussion lost to history.
I don't trust either of them.
The thing is in some places the ISPs are a duopoly. And they collude on pricing and net speeds etc.
kd1s Or even rural areas some have monopolies
When you say switches it makes me smile. :) pretty great.
This series is amazing
"A tad more complicated". Understatement of the century

I like the design of that spider.

If I had a choice in internet provider, do you think I would be paying $70/month for 10 Mbps? The US internet industry is uncompetitive in many places.
In Spain, we pay the same for 300mbps simmetrical (so 300mbps down, 300mbps up). And that's with each company (mostly foreign companies) setting up its own fiber network infrastructure; they only borrow lines from the national company for long-reach ADSL. We get 20mbps ADSL for around 30 dollars at out summer home.
Oh, and that's for commitment-less contracts; one-year contracts are even cheaper.
Interesting video and information given, thanks.
The idea that both sides of any argument have an equally valid point is a fallacy, and drives me nuts.

NN prevents ISPs from throttling traffic based on factors such as source (partners vs others), subscriber status (unsubscribed, subscribed, premium, etc), and content TYPE (such as political viewpoints that special interest groups dislike), which as you can understand is fertile ground for abuse.

Can you do a literature video next about Great Expectations?
you are awesome
In theory, we would shop around the ISPs. In practice, oligolopies rule the United States and form local monopolies.
