The QoS values are not standardized. IPv6 routers typically clear the QoS flag. It is also normal that only edge routers have QoS because they are choke points. Core routers rarely do any QoS. If your ISP was any good, the edge routers would all have dedicated bandwidth and QoS would be moot.
Why would I want to pay extra money to make sure my router puts my game traffic in front of my P2P traffic? I can do that myself for free. Ohhh wait.. you mean for the ISP to prioritize your traffic on their network for a premium. You mean they sell you X bandwidth, don't deliver, then charge your to prioritize your "high priority" bandwidth?
Personally, I would rather just pay the $70/m for a dedicated 70/70 connection that I can run at 100% 24/7 with no congestion at all, other than on my own dedicated link. Then I'll just QoS it myself. Actually, I don't even need to QoS because I can use an AQM, which is like zero configuration QoS.
I know, $70 is a lot for 70Mb, but at least my ISP does not oversubscribe their network at all. Well, except the trunk, but they don't let it get past about 20% utilization. I was strait up told by a senior network admin that all users could use their connections at 100% at the same time and the internal network could handle it, congestion free. Not to say their trunk wouldn't crumble.
Even if my ISP somehow managed to have congestion, I don't know, lets assume 6 of their 8 trunk lines failed. They were under a DDOS recently, even then, my 7ms ping would "spike" to 9ms. There was packetloss, a lot of packetloss, but the main point is even under a something like 100Gb DDOS, they still maintained a low ping. Even if they had congestion, my ping would still be low, just my bandwidth would be lower. The only reason there was packetloss was because the connection was being flooded, Normal good acting TCP, which consumes most of the bandwidth, throttles back.
Don't take this as bragging, take it as "your ISP is screwing you and stop being apologetic for them".
I believe all flows should get the same priority and flows that use less bandwidth should get higher priority that flows that use more. No point in classifying traffic, just split the bandwidth evenly. Of course software that uses a lot of flows can get more bandwidth, but that's less common than it sounds. I can maintain sub 1ms pings without using QoS and being at 100% link rate.
In case it wasn't clear, I can maintain 0ms pings even without traffic shaping. So even if I throw all of my traffic in the same queue, latency stays low.
QoS may be hard. But it's necessary, because streaming and TCP don't play well together.
I guess you haven't been keeping up in network technology. My ISP uses an AQM and I can maintain about 10ms of additional latency even when my connection is flooded beyond 100%. I have tested a DOS, and sending 105% my download results in about 5% packet-loss, but still around 10ms of latency at most.
When I manage my own AQMs on my network, I can maintain 0ms of additional latency, no QoS needed. Not only does it stability latency, but it stabilizes bandwidth. I can effectively run my network at 100%, maintain 100%, while keeping latency about 0ms, and still allowing bursts traffic like Video Stream Buffering, while not destabilizing bulk downloads.
The only QoS I use is traffic shaping, and the only reason for that is because I actually want to shape my bandwidth, not just maintain low pings.
1) The data catalog is so big that you need a huge cache to be anywhere useful. Netflix uses a 100TB cache, and they pin the cache because the there is so much random access, that it is constantly evicting records, only to reload them later. Random access is very high. Because of this issue, whatever "caching" device you use, it would just be constantly churning unless it understood the traffic pattern, which is random. This would just hurt everyone.
2) Netflix is going all HTTPS soon, good luck caching.
Of course effort, but rarely does anyone put in the effort unless they're motivated, and few people are motivated by anything except curiosity. My point is unless you're curious, you will not put in enough time or effort to be good. figurative "you": Ohh nice, you've been programming for 8 hours per day for 10 years. I've been putting in 16 hour days for 20 years and I'm younger than you. Good luck.
Plus, they younger you start, the more advantage you have because your brain is more plastic. If I started doing basic problem solving stuff when I was 2, how does that compare to someone who started when they turned 18? 2? yes. My mom tells me of when I was taking apart electronics and attempting to put them back together when I was 2, but close to 3.
I'm not special, I'm just different. I'm not good at most things people consider easy. Like an Olympian, I'm not gifted, I just put in more time.
A super nova that out shined the entire galaxy and the only way we get to see it is via light echos that only powerful telescopes can see. So no, we didn't get to see it with our naked eyes.
I guess I should have asked what the prices were like where you lived in the city. I'm sure prices can vary a lot depending on where you are.
other than housing the remainder is basically flat anywhere
Housing is a large portion of many people's incomes. Going from $500/m for a 2 bedroom 3 level duplex with a 2 stall garage where I live, to who knows what in a big city, is probably a big difference. Not to mention getting to/from anywhere in the city is about 5-10 minutes no matter what time of the day.
I understand not having a yard because mowing does suck, but I hate small places. Most people who have two kids and a wife probably think differently about having a small place to live, unless you want your kid's play room in your living room, which spills into your kitchen, then you invite friends over and they bring their kids.
I hate going out. Not much intellectually stimulating at most "fun" places. A lot more challenges my mind on the Internet.
What's the living cost where you were? All of that sounds like a lot until you hear that pre-housing crash, I could get a new 2500 sq-ft house on a 1-4 acre plot with access to high quality fiber Internet for about $150k. $72k would put you in the top about 10% around here. housing is cheap, internet is cheap, education is cheap, but we have some of the best housing, lowest crime, fastest internet, and best education.
Anita Sarkeesian has done many speeches where she talks negatively about making women "masculine", but if you look at her "research" papers, she defines masculine traits as "self confident", "control of themselves", "objective", "independent", "objective", and "rational". She describes listed under "values for a more feminist television landscape". Then promptly turns around and complains that video game designers are giving female characters "masculine" traits. Ohh lordy lordy, we can't have self confident, objective, independent, rational female characters!
Not to mention she seems to love wearing low cut shirts that show a lot of cleavage, and puts a lot of time into makeup and other superficial things. Don't you just love it when people fit they stereotype they're trying to attack? She's just making things worse for real feminists, but these are the kinds of people who get media attention. Ignoring her logic issues, she'd be much easier to listen to if she didn't dress like a 19 year old college girl going to a party. If you want to fight stereotypes, don't look like the one you're trying to fight.
He sounds about correct for what the prominent feminists are saying. That one feminist that did a Ted Talk has a research paper that categorizes "confidence" as a negative masculine trait, then does speeches about females characters in video games and movies are just female in body, but as given masculine traits. Yeah, like confidence. If you're a confident person, that's a bad thing.
QoS is an incredibly hard problem. Even professionals who are very good at their craft get it wrong on their own networks. What makes you think an ISP can properly QoS other people's traffic? ISP should be limited to purchasing more bandwidth and using anti-bufferbloat AQMs, but no throttling or QoS.
In my very limited experience, outsourcing was expensive, slow, and had a lot lost in miscommunication. We pretty much got a minimal viable product with very brittle code. Since they only focused on getting small sets of features at a time, they didn't ever look at the whole feature set. They effectively had feature creep even without changes to the specs.
In the end it was cheaper to hire full time programmers locally. Barrier to entry was much lower with outsourcing, but even within a year's time, the costs were much higher, and the quality was sub-par.
Local State uni. Lots of alumni in big companies or important government tech positions. When you graduated, you pretty much had a bunch of practice and theory to be a full-stack programmer, Database admin, network admin, server admin, and system's security. A very well rounded education. When I architect and design my projects, I consider all aspects, security, performance, maintainability, what systems it communicates with.
The most important thing I learned was how to think from other people's positions. I bettered my ability to both be critical and creative by learning other people's point of views. Because I can put myself in a DBA's shoes, or a network admin's, or the security team, my ability to program is much better. I also get a lot of slack from the admins since I do think of them and make their jobs as easy as possible for what needs to get done. For many other programmers, coordinating several admins to setup the environment is like herding cats. I seem to have little issue.
It's amazing how much of a difference small design decisions can make. Butterfly Effect applies to programming and being able to see the ramifications of minute design details helps a lot.
There's a theoretical attack on AES256 that if the attacker can get the target to encrypt several petabytes of known text with the exact same key, you could possibly analyze the resulting petabytes of data and reverse the key. Get the target web server to encrypt petabytes of data with the same session key, and... The key changed... damn.

This is a moot issue because they're fixing bufferbloat with new technologies like DOCSIS3.1 hardware. Look up PIE AQM.

Steam DRM is optional. Several games on Steam do not have any DRM at all. It is entirely up to the one selling the game to decide.
