I love the act of writing code, it clicks well with me. I love the feeling of my brain solving problems, figuring out how something works, and then finally understanding it. I love debugging. I love having built something that people love,

I've seen a lot of posts like this one, but this is the first to encapsulate how I feel so well. Honestly, I don't really know what to do. I spent my whole life (so far; I'm still very young) falling in love with programming,

Anecdotally, I've run a bunch of traceroutes and reverse traceroutes to different locations and they tend to follow the same AS paths — although sometimes the traceroute will surface more routing through your ISP (especially from colle

This is awesome! To anyone interested in learning more about this, I wrote https://cpu.land/ a couple years ago. It doesn't go as in-depth into e.g. memory layout as OP does but does cover multitasking and how the code

This is pretty cool. Worth noting that Git does not actually only store full copies of files every time you make a change, this article I found does a really good job at explaining Git's packing: https://gist.github.com&#x2F

"Reliable" may have been crufty wording but I did get more responsive results using it. MTR uses ICMP by default. Definitely want to do a hybrid thing in the future though!

Ooh, that's compelling. I wonder how that would work for an actual traceroute.

BGP looking glasses are very fun, although a bit of a different concept. And WOAH, that's really interesting about TTLs. Thanks for sharing! That's awesome and terrifying!

1. ICMP seemed a lot faster / more reliable, but you're right that UDP does sometimes bring out better results. Something I want to do is make it use a hybrid approach — sending both ICMP and UDP packets and using the best of bo

Yeah, there is actually a whole section about this in the article! Called "Front to Back, Back to Front". tl;dr in my experience the networks traversed are usually very similar, and the content is relevant and interesting either w

Should work a little better now! It's still chugging, but I made the rest of the article load (although now it's a bit janky when you have JS disabled, but not much I can do)

Shouldn't have anything to do with Enhanced Tracking Protection, but my server is buckling under the traffic pressure! I'm working on it, maybe check back in 40m or so (SORRY!)
