It's gotten to the point that the moment I see "Rust" and "TUI" together, I immediately assume it's vibe coded. The combination just seems to be vibe coders' favorite, for some rea…

It is disturbing, and it is hard to blame them. Given the political climate nowadays, I guess it's really hard to tell what is satire and what is real anymore. Sometimes I see bats…

Did you just miss the headline a few days ago, that IPv6 adoption has reached 50%? You might be right if IPv6 adoption stayed at 10% or so. But the current trend suggests that soon…

I doubt it honestly. Most people are connecting to sites like Youtube, Instagram etc., which do actually support IPv6. It's how I get 60~80% IPv6 traffic on my home network. A grea…
