Going though my Computer History Museum photos and I found the original copy of this 1971 Telnet system diagram from RFC 158. Now you can compare the charming pencil on lined notebook paper to the official scanned version that's been the only one available for decades.

I love this stuff, it reminds me that the internet was invented by humans jotting things down on whatever paper was at hand and not godlike programmers planning everything exquisitely.

Congratulations to Katie Bouman to whom we owe the first photograph of a black hole ever. Not seeing her name circulate nearly enough in the press.

Amazing work. And here’s to more women in science (getting their credit and being remembered in history) 💥🔥☄️

Photographer Rebekka Guðleifsdóttir who lives in Ísafjörður in the West Fjords of Iceland wanted to show her husband, who was in the capital, how much it had snowed overnight and posted a photo of herself hanging out the washing on FB #womensart t.co/pAl43kPBWH

Today I learned about gdb-dashboard.

It is a ~/.gdbinit file which will add some nice fancy bells and whistles to to our out-of-the box gdb experience.

A brief write up on the network in 2019 t.co/s51lhBf0lW

TLDR version: majority IPv6-native clients, VPN clients stuck on dual stack, most traffic was encrypted, best guess: 10% more visitors then 2018

Currently we have 3143 IPv4 DHCP clients and 6306 Reachable IPv6 neighbours. So far today we had a peak bandwidth usage of 631Mbps down and 147Mbps up at

Started the new year by repairing our drier. The seal had worn out.
Seems a success: no extra pieces, the shape is about the same, the barrel turns. Now to check if it still make stuff dry... 🤞

Still semi asleep I went on the scales to check the damage done by all the heavy meals recently and got a surprise when the LCD showed 88.8.
As someone who worked with AIX that was a *bad* diagnostic readout to get...
