pro tip: anyone who thinks legacy ip could have been replaced in a less impactful manner than ipv6, please understand that people reinvent this idea frequently, & it has the exact same flaws every time.
ipv6 isn’t perfect - far from it! - but there was no “easier alternative”.
@szarka@noIPv6 10 years ago, i would say ok, fair, but now it's time to complain i think, considering that your teaching is impacted by this
now it's more likely that somebody in the IT department said ONLY OVER MY DEAD BODY and others surrendered, than "just not having the resources"
Did I really want to read these university slides today?
It's 30+ years since CIDR and 25+ years since IPv6.
There are ~60 slides about IPv4 and NAT and then 6 slides about IPv6 … why can't they teach IPv6 first? 😭

@nywelendengu those three guys aren’t “iana” 🤦🏻
prior to actual iana runout in 2011, a /8 lasted 4-6 weeks
0/8 theoretically being reclassified as global unicast address space isn’t the magic bullet you imply it to be 🙄
saw a post elsewhere referencing a transparent, intellectually dishonest attempt by the owner of this site to influence politics, with the caption “anyone still active on twitter needs to take a long hard look at themselves”
yea
can’t argue w/ that 😒
