We should definitely be switching to the specification in RFC 6214. IPoACv6 is the latest standard.

IPv6 is great, but NAT is quite functional and is prolonging the demise of IPv4.

This is so obvious. I don't understand why I don't see it being reported on more often.

Puppy Linux was my first ever Linux distro. Great memories.

You don't?

Not starving is considered splurging now, got it.

My last job they really didn't like us doing nothing during down time, they really wanted us to be sweeping the floor or some other busy-work. There was a lot of work to be done like that, so it got boring, fast.

Now I have a job with tons of downtime and my boss is explicitly fine with us reading books, playing video games, watching Netflix, etc. as long as we are responsive when customers come in. It's a great gig (although low-paying), especially for a college student.

Now if I get bored it's my own fault.

I like the ten hour shifts. More money for me.

I love my 4-day workweek. My company still gets 40 hours of work out of me each week (minus mandatory breaks) and I get a bit of overtime on some of those hours. Better still, two people can cover an entire day, whereas three were needed back when we worked 8 hour shifts.

Can confirm that Windows Server is taught in school IT programs, and can confirm that Windows Server is still being used for both Active Directory and on-premises virtualization (Hyper-V). I interned at a large international organization with networks on 6 continents and it was moving its server infrastructure back to its own datacenters because of rising costs of cloud hosting. It used Hyper-V on Windows Server to host every thing.

From what I've seen unpaid internships aren't nearly as common as they used to be, but are still concentrated in certain white-collar fields such as law and finance.

I don't think I saw a single unpaid internship when I was searching for my senior internship in college.

And yet, half of my website is hosted on Azure Storage. That little unsolicited remark about Microsoft's valuation at the bottom is clearly the result of smoking too much copium by the biased author.
