    Closing the IPv6 First-Packet Gap with Grand

    GRAND (Gratuitous Neighbour Discovery) fixes an asymmetry in IPv6 where newly configured hosts can reach routers but routers may not yet know how to reach the hosts, causing latency or packet loss on first return traffic. The mechanism makes hosts proactively advertise their addresses via unsolicited Neighbour Advertisements instead of waiting for routers to discover them reactively. The author implemented GRAND in FreeBSD following RFC 9131 guidelines.

    Influential people don't network, they build social capital

    Building social capital—treating relationships like a bank account where meaningful interactions create deposits—is more effective than traditional networking. By genuinely helping others and providing value without expecting immediate returns, you accumulate the ability to make requests when needed, while maintaining a positive reputation and enabling ideas to spread through your network.

    Pihole and IPv6

    A user configures Pi-hole with IPv6 support on a home network despite ISP router limitations. By enabling Router Advertisements with high preference on Pi-hole, devices prefer the local DNS server over the ISP's DNS, effectively circumventing the locked-down router's IPv6 restrictions.

    Will There Be a 7G?

    A research paper examines whether 7G wireless technology should become a distinct mobile generation beyond 6G. Rather than treating 7G as inevitable, the authors propose a readiness framework evaluating demand, system discontinuities, coordination value, sustainability, trust, and geopolitical viability across candidate technologies like agentic networks, RF-native computing, and quantum interworking.

    GameMath

    GameMath is a self-contained C math library derived from FreeBSD's msun that provides consistent floating-point results across platforms and compilers for networked games using lock-step simulation. It replaces platform libc math functions with software implementations prefixed with gm_ to ensure reproducible binary-level floating-point operations and prevent simulation desynchronization.

    How to Detect Residential Proxies

    A technical analysis of detecting residential proxies by comparing TCP and UDP IP addresses obtained through WebRTC. The method identifies proxy usage by examining IP address discrepancies across different networks and analyzing TLS handshake duration relative to TCP round-trip time, which reveals when connections are split at proxy exit points.
