Hi everyone, as a software engineer, I wanted to know more about networking and BGP. So I started implementing BGP about two years ago. But it stalled at a message parser, because I had too much knowledge gap. I stopped. But late last year, I started again, this time with AI. I studied up the RFCs, designed the architecture and Claude did most of typing. I read every RFC and every code, which is where learning happened.

7 months later, it's live and I'm running AS4242423930 on dn42, carrying the full routing table (~2k prefixes) with two eBGP peers. I'm also running two "POPs" in US east and west coast, running iBGP. It doesn't actually program routes to kernel yet (it's just a speaker). I figured it's enough for route servers or software controllers that don't actually forward packets.

As for the project, what I wanted to focus on was observability. This natively emits operational metrics as CloudWatch EMF (for AWS), JSON (for other Cloud), and also Prometheus. Memory-safety and efficiency were also the goal (Rust). And the project is actually not just BGP, but a routing stack. Because I'm also curious about protocols other than BGP.. So I'll implement more routing protocols as I continue learning more. I named it Rogg ("Routing, gg") which consists of bgpgg ("BGP, gg") and ggsh ("gg shell"). I grew up a gamer and couldn't resist. Thanks for checking it out.

Hi everyone, I wanted to share a language I made that only uses a series of bracket characters. All operations are prefix-free, meaning one can follow another without ambiguity.

The following program prints "Hello, world!"

  (0)(10)(33)(100)(108)(114)(111)(119)(32)(44)(111)(108)(108)(101)(72)>><<[<><>><<>><<]>>><<

The following prints 25th Fibonacci number:

  (1)(25)(1)><>(1)(0)><>(1)>>>>>><<[(0)><>(1)>>>>>><<[>><>(1)><>>><<(0)><>>>><>(1)><><<<>><>>>><>(0)><>>><>(1)>>>>>><<](0)](1)><><><>><>>>><<

Same. Having finished the course years ago, I remember most vividly the following: never implement your own crypto. Not many details survived the time but it was intellectually rewarding.

Interesting point. While I sympathize with the cause, I personally wouldn't find it the best money spent, had I donated, because it is impossible to measure the impact of the money spent.

Thanks for the compliment. It is possible to use any other methods to synchronize notes because Dnote stores everything in a single SQLite file. The dedicated server becomes useful for providing a web interface and API access to the notes.

For me, Spotify's personalized recommendations (e.g. discover weekly, release radar) have been quite consistent in quality.

Adding lines such as "topic:..." sounds like a very useful and low key solution. I might start trying that. Thanks.

You can use Dnote web app on the phone to do full text search and list notes by book. You can also install the website as a progressive web app for usability.

On the downside, using this web interface subjects users to a third party system (albeit open source) and forces them to give up the autonomy that they enjoy by simply using plaintext files.
