I don’t normally impulse buy things, but I’m a recovering NetEng who’s been meaning to upgrade for a while, and in the time it took me a Buy it Now they went from 12 left in stock to 10 to 8.

Ocean telemetry tip: preserve raw measurements before normalization, then track sensor identity, schema version, queue age, validation state, model version, and citation resolution. #OceanData #Telemetry #NetEng #AI #DataGovernance

A green WAN dashboard cannot prove a sensor is calibrated, and a valid measurement cannot prove an AI cited it correctly. Keep transport, scientific quality, and model evidence separate. #OceanData #AI #NetEng #DataProvenance #Observability

Or the flipside, recruiters being impressed with your neteng chops so they want to know if you want the $20/hr desktop support gig thats only a 6mo contract, requiring you to move to like Philly or some shit without relocation help
And then there’s the rando nursing ones because of your *C*CNA

Well, huh. Retrofitting #MikroTik equipment on a PPPoE WISP for #IPv6 and labbing out the design. The PD for the clients can be handled entirely through RADIUS and the PPPoE server. CE still needs a separate PPPoE and DHCP-PD client configuration, but everything on the PE is simple. Liking. #NetEng

There is a bar right across from Texas A&M called "Dixie Chicken." It was expected to hear that song in that bar every night.
After I moved to MA, at my 1st job, we hired a neteng who had gone to TAMU and been a bartender at "The Chicken," and whose aux responsibility was feeding the pet snakes.

In a former life, I did neteng for a university, including wifi. RF management is difficult enough when you control all of the APs in an area, but basically impossible when you don't. Not surprising you have wifi probs in a densely populated area. You either block other RF or have a louder signal.

Love seeing the "Network as Code" momentum. Real scale happens when community insights turn into shared, intent-based workflows. That’s the key to bridging NetEng and DevOps. 🚀
