Building Software That Lasts

Setting up an IPv6 Tunnel with OpenBSD

Though IPv6 has been around for quite some time, its adoption is still not as widespread as IPv4. While IPv6 offers an almost unlimited number of addresses, support from major ISPs remains limited. One way to enable IPv6 at home is by using a tunnel broker like Hurricane Electric, which provides a routable IPv6 prefix to your home network. In this guide, we’ll configure an IPv6 tunnel on OpenBSD 7.5, using it as a home router.

My Journey from Oracle to PostgreSQL

From the start of my career, I’ve always been deep into Oracle Database, working on versions from 8i to 12c, all focused on online transaction processing (OLTP). Oracle is rock solid—safe, reliable, and, as Ask Tom will tell you, simply great.

In the OLTP world, you deal with loads that demand low latency and high transaction rates.

Rigging The Game by Dan Nicholson (1/N)

Dan Nicholson’s Rigging the Game offers a unique perspective on how to achieve financial certainty in a world filled with unpredictability. The core idea?

Nicholson invites us to reconsider how we approach decisions, especially in business and finance, and provides a set of principles designed to help us rig the game in our favor.
