> If you connect to a Wi-Fi network that isn't your company's, Teams will simply display the name of that network. So if you decide to take a "working lunch" and connect to "Starbucks_Guest_WiFi", your boss sees it instantly.
Looks like I need to rename my home wifi to "Corporate Network."

It's not that hard to create your own search engine, office suite, and school ecosystem. I mean, no single one of google's services isn't replaceable, especially if a country sets its mind to it. Just do that if you're worried about it.
> Instead, just look at go.mod. It lists the precise version at which all dependencies are built.
No, it does not. Minimum version selection means that the libraries will at least be that version, but it could be substituted for a later version if a transient dependency asks for such.
That I'm reading this blog post at all suggests there is a "market" for a single checksum/version manifest, which data is currently housed in go.sum . This is sad, but, Hyrum's Law and all that.

The fact that this comments section indicates such a yawning chasm of gaps in knowledge (much less, understanding) - in a forum whose users are generally known to be more technically savvy than most - is exactly why IPv6 is still not widely adopted. There is confusion about the less obvious benefits, confusion about how it works, confusion about the dangers (how do I adjust my well honed IPv4 spidey senses?), and confusion about how I transition my current private network. An epic failure of change management.
Here’s a prediction. Linux on the desktop will have >50% penetration well before IPv6 does.
No. It's not adopted everywhere because it's awful. At least on the data center side.

IPv6 has already won on mobile and been gaining fast traction in IoT space with Matter. The reason IPv4 is still around everywhere else is because we came up with ingeniuous techniques that squeezed the heck out of IPv4 address space. Also, IPv4 addresses are easier to type. That's pretty much it.
I had mentioned some of that in my post: https://ssg.dev/ipv6-for-the-remotely-interested-af214dd06aa...
Everyone who says this is a web developer. I have yet to actually meet someone with networking experience who has this opinion.
The reason it's not winning in the other places is because Network engineers hate IP version 6 as a rule .
It makes sense that it's won on mobile. In that scenario, NATs are stupid and lots of addresses are needed.
In the data center, fewer addresses are needed and NATs are vital for security.

NAT accelerated hardware exists almost everywhere now. But yes NAT is a pita overall. CGNAT is even more of a problem.
Not really, this is only true for mobile devices.
A bit more seriously though, I wonder if our appreciation of things (arts and otherwise) is going to turn bimodal: a box for machine-made, a box for intrinsically human.
