Tim Berners-Lee says the double slashes was a mistake and should have been left out. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-1220286/Sir-T...

But the // is useful.

Yes thats a good point, protocol-relative links are useful, but IMHO they don't necessarily depend on the "//". If URLs would look like "http:google.com/bla", a different syntax would have been invented instead, e.g. ":google.com/bla".

ssh should handle temporary interruptions today but for changing ip addresses, check out mosh! https://mosh.mit.edu/

And thus you earned my highly prized "Todays Most Valuable Posting" badge. Do you have any experience with it? Gotchas, potential security issues etc?

Mosh is great, seriously. It just works, of course not nearly as battle tested as SSH but it practically works very well.

I used it alot when I ran an irc client (I use IRCCloud now).
