UniMOOC The Law of Leaky Abstractions by Joel Spolsky Monday, November 11, 2002 There's a key piece of magic in the engineering of the Internet which you rely on every single day. It happens in the TCP protocol, one of the fundamental building blocks of the Internet. TCP is a way to transmit data that is reliable. We use TCP for many things like fetching web pages and sending email. By comparison, there is another method of transmitting data called IP which is unreliable. Here's the magic part: TCP is built on top of IP. To illustrate why this is magic, consider the following morally equivalent, though somewhat ludicrous, scenario from the real world. Imagine that we had a way of sending actors from Broadway to Hollywood that involved putting them in cars and driving them across the country. That is, approximately, the magic of TCP. Back to TCP. This is what I call a leaky abstraction. Abstractions fail. During my first Microsoft internship, I wrote string libraries to run on the Macintosh. Next: Lord Palmerston on Programming
