15:28 travis__ hi. I have a question that is regarding REST api.. I do not really understand what does the stateless principle mean. Suppose we have an application (REST) where users can create messages.
15:28 travis__ Does the fact that each message can be edited or deleted just by its owner break stateless principle?
15:31 pdurbin I don't think so.
15:32 asdf the communication needs to be stateless, the application of course must keep state to be useful
15:32 asdf this is as opposed to the old (java) web applications that would have you start and stop a session to work with the application, which sometimes even started a process on the server for that session
15:35 travis__ is the communication stateless if it contains an authentication key?
15:36 asdf usually you'll have the server authenticate each request the same, based on the key
15:43 travis__ thank you
