A quick definition of HTTP:

HTTP stands for HyperText Transfer Protocol. It's a way for computers to talk to each other over the internet or a local network. When you visit a website, your computer sends a message to the website's computer asking for information. The website's computer sends back the information you asked for using HTTP. It's like asking a question and getting an answer back.

A more thorough explanation:

HTTP, short for HyperText Transfer Protocol, is a communication protocol used for transferring data over web servers on the Internet or on a local network (intranet). It is a part of the Internet protocol suite and defines the commands and services used to send website data.

HTTP uses a server-client model. When you access a website, your browser sends a request to the associated web server, and the web server answers with an HTTP status code. For example, when you type in a website address like "https://www.google.com" in your browser, your browser sends an HTTP request to the Google web server, and the server responds with an HTTP status code, which tells your browser whether the request was successful or not.

HTTP is the foundation of the World Wide Web and is used by web browsers, search engines, and other applications that access web resources. It allows users to access and interact with web pages, download files, and perform other web-related tasks.

@Law-Shark: they didn't say we had to go? and if they are willing to buy rooms for a bunch of people. they sent me a res because I was over 50 miles away but I didn't even ask for one

nattyalley

16:42

@Law-Shark: also kind of rude for you to be speaking to me like that, the event started at 9am and I had to wakeup at 4 to drive in. i was tired and couldn't even check in until 4pm if I wanted to so I just drove back. it's unprofessional to offer it the night before and not the day after. they also didn't feed us actual food and we were there until 2pm.

The fact you didn't think a reservation in your name is something you need to be responsible for and cancel if you weren't going to show up to by sending a simple email is absolutely iresponsible.

nattyalley

16:43

I didn't make a reservation tho?

ET025

16:44

Yeah, I would have definitely gone to the hotel if I knew they booked a room for me. At the very least, it would be proper to show up personally and explain your extraneous circumstances

Law-Shark

16:44

Nah but it's in your name. I went to an ASD. I asked the school for an extra night and they gave it to me. You just need to plan things better.

Law-Shark

This is like peak disconenct between the male and female brain.

nattyalley

16:45

i think that's where i was confused then

Law-Shark

16:45

disconnect*

Law-Shark

16:45

You live and you learn

nattyalley

16:45

because i did let one of the staff know i'd be leaving early and thought that would be enough

nattyalley

16:46

but i was confused why i got an e-mail with a room cuz I didn't ask for it at all

Law-Shark

16:46

Well, you know now what to do.

nattyalley

16:47

well on their end they prob shouldn't just be buying hotel rooms for ppl who don't request it and then getting mad I didn't go

nattyalley

16:48

goof

ET025

16:48

Did you get any materials for admitted students day explaining that they would be booking hotel rooms?

nattyalley

16:49

there was an opt in on the form but I didn't select yes

ET025

16:49

Hmm, that's weird

bigfatsloth

16:50

i think it's unprofessional of them to call you like what if you had an emergency and had to leave? why is it their business why you didn't stay? not like they're lacking money and $100.00 hotel room is gona make them bankrupt

nattyalley

16:50

i figured it was an error and I was on the road so I didn't read into it. plus it would make more sense for it to be the night before cuz it started at 9am? so I was like uhhh and paid it no mind

nattyalley

16:51

@bigfatsloth: that's what i'm saying, they were gonna pay no matter what

nattyalley

16:54

"This is like peak disconenct between the male and female brain." like bffr

ET025

16:55

It was probably an administrative error then. I can't imagine why they would book hotel rooms for people that didn't select yes. I would maybe follow up with them and apologize for the misunderstanding to avoid any awkwardness
