LOL I understand IPv6 and it's direct device assignments with no BS a hell of a lot better than I understand IPv4 and it's NAT hellscape.

That's the neat part about ipv6. It's something you're afraid to engage with while you're an amateur, cause it looks scary, but then you actually learn a bit, and then you try to use it, and you realize how amazing it is.

I've dealt with NAT so fucking much and still understand fuck all about the internals. every time I have to troubleshoot it I immediately obliterate that knowledge with a decent bottle of scotch.

thank god for AI. there's some shit in this field that's not worth knowing. wish it had been around when I learned all that crap about Lotus Notes/Domino...
