If you're 20-30 & your main circle doesn't even have 10 Gigabit Ethernet, then it's time to find a new circle! Your network is your net worth!

@niconiconi
Most of the IT people I currently work with don't know half of this- and actively work with it.

Am I the only one who pays attention???!!!!

@lucifargundam This is just a mockery of the "your network is your net worth" cliche, which has become a meme in recent days. So far my version is the only one with a punchline about literal computer networks.

Seriously though, I think this knowledge is arcane and only known among those who work on big network backbones or related software. I had to search Hacker News and LWN for background to make this meme.

@niconiconi
I know for a fact this tech is old because the company I currently work for has EoL this stuff internally already and had started transition a few years ago.

Ironically, they still use py2 instead of py3 because they don't want to pay anyone to rewrite everything. The few people who tried used a conversion script that broke everything anyway.

That being said, said tech is still expensive as demand is still low- typical consumers don't buy XDP to MIPI adapters or get excited over additional features in oscilloscopes they stole from other groups.
