Derek, ended up reading the followup article about advice you gave to an incoming Berklee class where you mention: Focus. Disconnect. Do not be distracted. This is your #1 most important challenge. If you master focus, you will be in cont

Sysadmin here - I'll be using this. It would be great if you showed geographic info for each hop on the command line. And if you are really ambitious, make a graphical traceroute that is displayed on a map.
