> If you ever see packet loss in a trace at one step but the steps after it aren't showing it, you can ignore that packet loss, it's likely a CPU limitation on a busy router. Trippy now includes [0] forward loss (Floss)…
I’ve recently been building a similar tool [1] which defines a specification for CLIs, though the goals are slightly different to the tool you mention I think. I just added support for fish as it happens. [1]…
Something I’ve been working on recently is a command line tool [1] to bring clap declarative command line parsing to shell scripts. Unfinished WIP but largely functional. [1] https://github.com/fujiapple852/claptrap
It’s not guaranteed to be accurate, but tracing using the UDP/dublin strategy with a fixed dest port and varying src port per round can help to identify and visualize valid ECMP flows. I recently wrote some guidance [1]…
Exploring adding the (novel?) concept of forward and backward packet loss heuristics to Trippy [1] as discussed here [2]. [1] https://github.com/fujiapple852/trippy/issues/860 [2]…
I recently tried Zulip [1] again after a few years and the UX is much improved on web and mobile, worth a look (it is OSS and you can self host). [1] https://zulip.com/
This Tailscale blog [1] from 2020 has been posted on HN many times before I’m sure but is worth highlighting again as it does a great job outlining the technical complexities that CGNAT (and NAT in general) introduce. I…
What is the state of the art for running NetBSD (and other *BSD) in CI such as GitHub actions? Edit: to add a bit more detail, I maintain a cross platform tool [1] on GitHub and require a way to build and test it in CI…
Thanks! I’ll take a look
Thanks for that, I'll give this some thought and write a proposal in this [0] placeholder issue. [0] https://github.com/fujiapple852/trippy/issues/860
Something I intend to add to Trippy, but have not got around to it yet; is to codify the "If a packet takes the path A -> B -> C and pings to B have 50% loss but pings to C have 0% loss, then the path is perfectly fine"…
Thank you, I'll look into those RFCs.
That looks great, seems like they've raised the bar for GeoIp accuracy, kudos to them. It looks like they provide mmdb files (for a fee) which should be compatible with Trippy. I'd love to be able to test it out, the…
Thank you for adding Trippy to your list. > how did you accomplish all the package managers? In most cases I didn't do anything! I've discovered that there are many kind souls out there who are willing to give up their…
The TUI is built with the awesome Ratatui [0] library (formerly tui-rs [1]). UX is certainly not my area of expertise and I would not have been able to create Trippy without this library. [0]…
Yes, in my experience GeoIp is _highly_ unreliable, alas Trippy can do no more than report the location from the provided mmdb file. I'm aware of some interesting techniques which use timing measurements from multiple…
Author here, thanks for posting this (i’d meant to do a show HN post at some point). Trippy is a modern, cross platform, feature rich alternative to MTR with a fancy TUI. And yes, it’s written in Rust.…
"Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity"
Very little coverage of this bill passing in the UK mainstream media that I have seen.
This is great, good luck with the inevitable NYT buyout :) One nit, the letters could snap the grid a bit more aggressive, I found I frequently had letter “miss” the grid and have to drag them again (on an iPad).
Seems to be recovering. What fallback plan does your organisation have for slack outages?
Thanks for the history, really interesting. > Surprisingly forward looking for any government department! Indeed!
Story time: When the BBC micro arrived at my tiny rural school the elderly teacher had been given instructions for how to type in and run a simple "hello world" style program to demonstrate what this amazing machine…
