TCP 3-Way Handshake (SYN, SYN-ACK,ACK)

CTSS Academy ·

2025/12/19

The TCP 3-Way Handshake is the ritual that every TCP connection performs before any real data flows. It’s a tiny three-step conversation — SYN, SYN-ACK, ACK — but it’s the reason the internet feels reliable, ordered, and predictable.This handshake lets a client and server agree on sequence numbers, confirm each other’s presence, and prepare a clean channel for communication. Without it, TCP wouldn’t be connection-oriented; it would be chaos in packet form.In this episode, we explore:• What SYN, ACK,

TCP/IP Model: What are Layers & Protocol? TCP/IP Stack

CTSS Academy ·

2025/12/18

The TCP/IP Model is the backbone of how the internet actually works. Instead of seven layers like OSI, this model keeps things lean with four layers: Application, Transport, Internet, and Network Interface.Each layer has one job — from how apps send data, to how packets are routed across the globe, to how bits leave your physical device. Together they form the end-to-end system that lets billions of machines speak the same digital language.In this episode, we explore:• What the TCP/IP Model is and

OSI Model Layers and Protocols in Computer Network

CTSS Academy ·

2025/12/17

The OSI Model breaks a network into seven layers, each with a specific job — from raw electrical signals all the way up to the apps we touch. The whole point is structure: every layer has one role, one responsibility, and one neighbor above and below.That structure makes troubleshooting easier, new tech easier to understand, and communication predictable instead of chaotic.In this episode:• Why the OSI Model exists• How the seven layers split hardware-level bits, frames, packets, segments, sessions,

Network topology describes how devices in a network are connected physically and logically. Choosing the right topology affects performance, scalability, and maintenance.In this episode, you’ll learn:• Point-to-Point (P2P): Direct link between two devices. Fast, simple, but limited to small areas.• Bus Topology: Single backbone cable connecting all nodes. Cost-effective for small LANs but prone to traffic collisions.• Ring Topology: Devices connected in a closed loop, using tokens to pass data

Blockchain is a chain of blocks containing information, designed to timestamp digital documents securely and prevent tampering without a central server. It underpins cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin but has applications far beyond digital money.Key Points:What Blockchain is NOT: Blockchain ≠ Bitcoin. Blockchain is the technology; Bitcoin is a token.Architecture: Each block contains data, its own hash, and the previous block’s hash, forming a secure chain.Proof of Work: Computational effort ensures new

.Com vs .Net – Difference Between Domain Extensions

Domain extensions shape how your website is perceived. .Com signals “commercial” — products, services, businesses — while .Net represents “network” — internet, email, or networking service providers.Key distinctions:• .Com: Widely recognized, easier to remember, ideal for generalbusiness, eCommerce, personal sites, blogs. Cost: ~$8-$16/year.High credibility but tough to find unused domains.• .Net: Suited for tech, network services, internet providers. Cost:~$10-$15/year. Easier to register but

Difference between Hardware and Software

Hardware is the body.Software is the mind.A machine becomes a machine only when the two agree to work together.Hardware is the physical stuff you can touch: silicon, copper, plastic, circuits.Software is the invisible choreography: instructions, logic, behavior.One moves electrons.The other tells those electrons why they’re moving.In this episode:• What hardware actually does at the machine level• Why software is really just structured instructions• How both depend on each other to function•

File systems aren’t storage — they’re strategy.Every drive, every SD card, every USB stick speaks its own dialect.FAT32, exFAT, NTFS.Same data, three completely different philosophies.A file system decides how data is stored, how it’s found, how fast it moves, and which devices can read it.Without one, your drive would be a shapeless blob of bits with no beginning or end.FAT32 is the old survivor.exFAT is the modern traveler.NTFS is the heavyweight engineer.In this episode:• What a file system truly

Computers aren’t just fast — they’re busy.Every millisecond, they juggle tasks, slice time, fake parallelism, or unleash true multi-core muscle.Cores, threads, and hyper-threading decide how that juggling feels.Concurrency is the illusion: one core hopping between tasks so quickly it looks parallel.Parallelism is the real thing: multiple cores chewing through work at the exact same moment.Threads add flexibility.Cores add raw power.Hyper-threading pretends to double the workforce.In this episode:•

Patterns aren’t just blueprints — they’re the way an app thinks.Every architecture decides how data moves, who talks to whom, and who stays blissfully unaware.MVC is the old-school general: strict roles, clear lanes, a controller barking orders.MVVM is the diplomat: data-binding, cleaner separation, UI that reacts like it’s alive.One gives you structure.The other gives you flow.In this episode:• How MVC splits responsibility between Model → View → Controller• Why MVVM introduces the ViewModel and

Speed isn’t just a spec — it’s the memory’s heartbeat.Every instruction your CPU fires depends on how fast your RAM can whisper data back.SRAM whispers instantly.DRAM answers… after a quick recharge.One stores bits with stable latches.The other stores bits as tiny electric droplets that constantly fade unless refreshed.Two memories, two personalities — one built for pure speed, the other built for capacity.In this episode:• How SRAM uses transistor-based latches for near-zero access latency• Why
