Not really a problem with UDP itself, but with some very old protocols like DNS that rely on UDP but can’t be changed because of compatibility. If you’re writing a new service that uses UDP, there’s nothing stopping you from designing it so that it doesn’t provide an opportunity for bandwidth amplification.
Not quite; movie’s only 35 years old. First colonoscopy is recommended at age 45.
I find it ironic that Linus’s explanation for ENOENT
being invalid for an ioctl given its meaning of “No such file or directory”, while simultaneously ioctl can return ENOTTY

Primates, including humans, evolved to be omnivorous. In the 200,000 year history of the homo sapiens species, only the most recent 3% have had the benefit of agriculture. Even then, only 0.1% have had the benefit of the industrial revolution which could in theory provide enough calories and nutrients for all humans with a purely herbivorous diet.
