on a somewhat related note: if you're reading this and you use OpenSSH, you really ought to donate to the OpenBSD project via their foundation. And you should band together with the rest of your technical team(s) who most likely also u

despite best efforts, sometimes the generators don't kick in. sometimes not all of them kick in. sometimes one ATS in one feed in one section that just happens to house one half of an important switch chassis doesn't work as it di

wouldn't you rather do that at home? or outside the office, at least? but since you're working 60 or more hours a week, I guess in the office is the only opportunity...

it's far easier and more accurate to track someone based on browser fingerprinting and a few other features than any IP address -- period. IPv6 in no way makes this worse or better than IPv4.

in a MDU, the owner owns the common spaces. that includes risers and inside wiring. they're free to sell, lease, or restrict the rights to whomever they please. just like wifi ratings for hotels have become a "thing", so must

you designate an MPOE (minimum point of entry) and then have cabling/conduit installed from the MPOE to units/residences/NIDs. then your HOA owns the "inside wiring" and, with the right amount of lawyer magic, each

CDNs mostly use network-level data to find the "closest" and/or highest performance cache, not geography. if your server is in Asia, most CDNs will be able to calculate that Singapore, Tokyo, Hong Kong, etc. have a lower late

they start with WHOIS data and add what they can from there to improve accuracy. Quite a few residential ISPs register blocks of IP addresses (subnets) to a city, town, neighborhood, etc.

I'm always intensely curious what residential (and these days, even business) customers want with a dedicated, publicly routable IPv4 address. why were you disappointed?

Hi! I'll admit it's poorly worded. My intention was to say there was an economic value in providing less-than-cost (or even free -- only you and your accountants knew) bandwidth in order to scale out your network and increase valu
