TCP and the Berkely Sockets API should have included message chunking out-of-the-gate.
The very first thing anybody using TCP has to do is invent their own chunking. Every time. It's ridiculous.
HTTP deadass does chunking by writing the ASCII string "\r\nContent-Length: ". That's EIGHTEEN BYTES.
The internet is made out of fucking twine.
