Old school recommendation, but the O’reilly book “Network Warrior” is actually a good read. It walks through common networking technologies, explains why they’re needed and how they’re used. Provides an excellent foundation of knowledge.
I could, but the community is pretty good for the most part. I’ve only had the one issue with the mod, and I plan on starting a conversation post to try and have the community weigh in on what they think the rules should be going forward.
Sorry, was trying, and failing, to be clever. Was referring to Reddit.
I love the goal this port is trying to achieve, and I try not to be negative about content. But lately I’ve seen the kind of gate keeping that is souring people on that other site.
I’ve had 2 fairly recent examples of it. In one case, the community pushed back on the poster for being an ass. They repeatedly doubled down, and were repeatedly called out for it. It was good to see.
The second was a mod applying a definition to a community that doesn’t exist in its stated rules. I haven’t finished with that one yet, but depending on how my response plays out, I’ll be done with that community, and I’ll just go back to that other site. The particular community is excellent both here and in R-world, so I won’t miss much by saying goodbye to it on Lemmy. I’ll be sad, though.
With AI wedging its way into everything, need to have a representative of tech billionaires working the crank. Also probably some more tech billionaires peeing in various parts of the stack.
Upvote for the Network Chuck reference.
Exactly. Humans are wasteful and expensive. One day, capitalists will realize if they don’t hire any humans, nobody but the capitalists will have money to buy anything.
That’s a bold statement!
