  • So you can likely earn in another role. The key is to make them believe that you chose to be here, rather than anywhere else. And that may involve lying because management don’t want to hear it’s because of your short commute and relatively easy workload. But, maybe you are there because you think that they are doing good work in whatever field? Maybe they do offer you great experience for your career. Maybe you do have a great team?

    And maybe you don’t. In which case it is platitudes time, tell them what they want to hear and volunteer for things more. But also, maybe time to get that CV brushed up too?






  • Logs, logs, logs, you’ll pour over logs anyway. Hands up anyone who has run GraphQL over anything but http? Won’t be many. And then another show of hands please: who’s written a basic request using http tooling instead? Bet there’s tons!

    They threw away loads of tooling for the sake of vanity imo










  • You might be able to do mac address cloning for fiber ports, if you have openwrt or similar it usually offers it.

    A firewall may not offer full routing and NAT though for ipv4 devices, or wifi if you need it, or ipv6, or many other features. I’ve also used a cable modem and stuck the router in the dmz which essentially makes it a passthrough device also in the past

    Basically, play with it and good luck!



  • If you don’t have ipv6 internally, you probably can’t access ipv6 externally. 6to4 gateways are a thing. 4to6? Not so much.

    And this is why ipv6 will ultimately take another 20 years for full coverage. If it was more backwards compatible from the starting address-wise then this would all have been smoother. Should have stuck with point separators. Should have assumed zero padding for v4 style addresses rather than a prefix
