It's not common, but it absolutely happens: https://www.courthousenews.com/man-behind-s-f-system-lockout...

Early in my career in the mid 2000s, the startup that was on the same floor as mine laid off a QA person, who then showed up the next day and fatally shot the CEO and head of HR. Our CEO called me and told me not to come in that day.

LAGs stripe traffic across links at the packet level, whereas QSFP/OSFP lanes do so at the bit level.

Different sized packets on different LAG links will take different amounts of time to transmit. So when striping bits, you effectively have a single ordered queue, whereas when striping packets across links, there are multiple independent queues.


DACs are usually twin-ax, which is just 2 coax cables bundled. The shielding matters a lot, compared to unshielded twisted pairs.

Faster parallel DACs require more pairs of coax, and thus are thicker and more expensive.


It has a client/server mode. I used to run the server on my wrt54g and the GUI client on my desktop.


There was this: https://www.servethehome.com/insane-48-port-2-5gbe-2x-25gbe-...

But I have not been able to find a place to buy one.


A HRV or ERV, depending on how humid it is where you live will help immensely. Unfortunately hard to retrofit into existing construction.


This is really easy, just use Linux.


Easy unless web services start requiring you to use TPM or other things that limit your possibilities further


"German pharmaceutical firm Bayer was forced to give up its rights to the Aspirin trademark in the Treaty of Versailles, in 1919, which followed its defeat in World War One (it also lost the rights to Heroin, but in hindsight it's probably not so upset about that).

The punishment only applied to aspirin's use in victor nations the USA, UK and France, leaving Bayer's trademark still enforceable elsewhere."

“Elsewhere” being literally meaning else where. I wasn’t alive in 1919, though my understanding from the literature is that “the American public didn’t like the German”. Like how they didn’t like the Irish before that. Then how they don’t like the Japanese in 1940s, the north Koran in 1956, then the Vietnamese in 1950-60s, then the Arabs in the 1970s-2000s, then the Chinese in the 2010s-today.


> In other words, homeostatic feedback causes salt consumption to stay about the same by increased consumption of salty-tasting processed food.

I'd imagine that McDonalds/Wendys/etc don't view that as a bad thing...


> want to play around with scraping LLDP data but our switch software stack has a bug

It's written for Cumulus Linux, but it should be adaptable to other NOSes with some work: https://github.com/CumulusNetworks/ptm

You give it a graphviz dot file, and it uses LLDP to ensure that reality matches that file.
