Here's what's cool about the article:
- Presents some nice theories which make things hard to learn (infrequent use, poor tools...)
- Describes how DNS tools could be improved.
- Gives you a few gotchas for how one may shoot themselves in a foot with DNS.
Here's what's a bit (not much) less cool:
- I really have no clue if those things ACTUALLY make things hard to learn (because it's not a research paper on learning).
- It's a plug for other content on the side which actually describes the DNS protocol. I'll admit the sold content looks cool. I haven't purchased and can't vouch for the actual quality.
- dgb23 3y agoAs for the last point: Check out the author’s blog. She’s a real hacker and can convey technical things in friendly and simple terms.
- laserbeam 3y agoYup, I have no problem with the author or the work they do. I think it's cool. And there's still value in the article. My only point is it slightly undermines this article per se. Claiming that something is hard to learn and immediately providing a thing that can teach it well is usually marketing. And that's all ok :).
