Looks like we'll have another engineer in the family. Tonight our daughter will be inducted into the Order of the Engineer, and tomorrow will be her official graduation ceremony at the University of Kentucky.

Order of the Engineer

Order of the Engineer | Upholding Devotion to the Standards and Dignity of the Engineering Profession
And I also, with #Claude's help, created MACWatch to solve a huge multi-branch network problem. Utility camps out in my office, scans my entire SD/WAN and uses #SNMP off my #Cisco #Catalysts, tracks everything it's seen in #Sqlite DB, and that gives me a solid place to investigate what my coworkers have plugged into my network. Rogue AP? Not anymore! It tells me what switch, what port, the MAC, and the #OUI manufacturer based on the #IEEE database. No hiding, no lying, no problem!
@fivetonsflax @SystemsAppr @ricci The #IEEE #802.1aq rollup spec definition of a Two-Port MAC Relay #TPMR is really quite insidious and bothersome to follow. I consider it a litmus test for how much an LLM will actually #HALLUCINATE when faced with a human-written specification. Calling everything a switch... Danger, Will Robinson, special cases abount. #OpenBSD notably has its own software stub driver to model this class of network element.
[1/7]📍 Meet our researchers at #ICDE2026 in Montréal, Canada (May 4–8)! BIFOLD's DIMA group (Volker Markl) and D2IP group (Ziawasch Abedjan) are contributing across multiple sessions this year. 🧵 @[email protected] @[email protected] #nebulastream #DataEngineering #DataManagement #IEEE

"The FPGA earned the Milestone designation because it introduced iteration to semiconductor design. Engineers could redesign hardware repeatedly without fabricating a new chip, dramatically reducing development risk and enabling faster innovation at a time when semiconductor costs were rising rapidly."

Reviewing as a committee member: my inbox is filling up with Jon Doe declines to review #1234

Dear authors, congratulations that you submitted three half-assed papers from the rubble of your student projects, but please do not set your review settings to 0 so that we as committee have to guess if you really can't or do not want to bothered with reviews. I see plenty of young researchers, especially from China chipping in heavily. That is not a healthy reviewing process anymore

@dougmerritt I did not, although I heard @JensGustedt on #ieee Software Engineering Radio podcast. I should read Gustedt's new book and write an @ACCU review.
