HTTP-Protokoll

[pne]

I must admit I find it slightly annoying how the trainer keeps going on about "das HTTP-Protokoll".

People in apihna would call this sort of thing "PNS syndrome" -- an abbreviation for "PIN number syndrome", from people who talk about "PIN numbers", which are "personal identification number numbers". Similarly with the "Hypertext Transfer Protocol Protokoll".

Yes, I suppose. (And sometimes we guess wrongly -- for example, I thought "YES scheme" was such an error, but it's not: it expands to "Youth Employment Service scheme", apparently.)

Maybe I should just shut up for the rest of the day; I seem to be unreasonably worked up. (See also my later entry about HTTP refresh header -- or better, don't.)
