Ah! my missing (404) subscribers.π€£π€£π€£π€£
Just joking.
Do you know the stories behind 404? No, don't worry, I am here to explain.
ONE of the most irritating things on the internet has to be the β404 Not Foundβ error message.
The message is a HTTP standard response code generated when a user attempts to follow a broken or dead link.
There are 2 stories behind this error that why this error was named as "404 Not Found".
1. At 07:36, the flight took off from the northern city of Gilgit, Pakistan on its way to the national capital Islamabad. One of the pilots of the aircraft made a routine radio call at 07:40; this was the last communication with the aircraft. The aircraft is thought to have crashed in the Himalayas, but the wreckage has never been found. It is speculated that the civilian aircraft was deliberately shot down by the Indian Army with an anti-aircraft missile, fired from a base along the Line of Control.
The aircraft was a Fokker F27-200 Friendship turboprop airliner, c/n 10207, built in 1962 and registered as AP-BBF. It had accumulated approximately 44,524 hours of flying time; and 41,524 cycles (the number of times the aircraft had been pressurized) at the time of the accident.
2. The origin of the error message has a very interesting story dating all the way back to the 1980s when a group of scientists at CERN (Switzerland) started working on what would become the World Wide Web.
The World Wide Webβs central database was located in the office on the fourth floor of a building β room 404 to be exact.
Inside the office, two or three people were tasked with manually locating requested files and transferring them over the network to the person who made the request.
But not all requests could be fulfilled, because of problems such as people entering the wrong file name.
When these problems became more common, the people that made the faulty request were met with a standard message: βRoom 404: file not foundβ.
Hope you enjoyed these stories.β€β€
