That would be my take as well, but feel free to read some of the sibling comments here, eager to bikeshed over the IPs of their equipment.

At the home level, you have a home router that can do mDNS out of the box. All devices are reachable by their hostname.

What kind of failure are you referring to? What would you want to tune? You can still easily locate all devices on your network.

I haven’t seen a bog-standard router yet that didn’t just do it out of the box.

That’s kind of my point, though. There is no reason at all to remember IP addresses.

This doesn’t change anything about the NAT or firewall story, and having two different connections is complex with IPv4 just as well. Aside from being a fairly exotic setup for personal use anyway. What would your ISP do with the informatio

The price you pay is that it's more difficult to reason about what is accessible from elsewhere, because all devices are represented by your router from the outside, and there are no great ways to opt out of that. With NAT removed, you

DHCP requires explicit configuration; it needs a range that hopefully doesn't conflict with any VPN you use; it needs changes if your range ever gets too small; and it's just another moving part really. With SLAAC, it's just

That applies to pretty much any reasonably complex idea. A new system requires effort to understand it. When you've expended that effort, it's not complicated anymore. I don't understand this sentiment—as if learning IPv4 was

You are allowed to state your opinion, as am I. My issue with your opinion is that is grounded in false belief and a lack of knowledge, and rehashing it here reproduces those opinions in others.

There are no more acronyms. SLAAC means automatic client configuration. That's the only one you need. > give up control of your home network. What does that even mean? What do you gain by deciding your Apple TV should be at 192.168.

IPv4 requires a DHCP server. It requires assigning a range of addresses that's usually fairly small, and requires manual configuration as soon as you need more than 254 devices on a network. The range must never conflict with any VPN y

> The whole SLAAC/DHCPv6/RA thing is a total clusterfuck. SLAAC is easily the thing I love most about IPv6. It just works. Routers publish advertisements, clients configure themselves. No DHCP server, no address collisions, no

If anything, IPv6 is extremely easy to use, especially with SLAAC: On any kind of standard network, you turn on IPv6 on your machine, and, given physical connectivity, bam! You're on the internet. It only gets complex if you try to mic

But that objective measure is exactly what we’re lacking in programming: There is often many ways to skin a cat, but the model only takes one. Without knowing about those it didn’t take, how do you judge the quality of a new model?

That ceased to be true a while ago since the ecosystem gravitated towards FrankenPHP, a stateful application server written in Go as a Caddy module. The performance is amazing, the Go Bridge allows easy extension, and it’s rock solid.

That doesn’t really apply in the EU, because your manager or even your org don’t have any right to read your messages, that would constitute a crime actually. I suspect the reason would be far simpler - people use what they are used to, and

Yep. You can also see that in the design language and the written English on their sites and blog posts. Something created by people with a Russian or Chinese background would approach a myriad of little things differently.
