Finally something where my constant impulse to go "do I really need a heap allocation here?" comes in useful.

I've been trying to dig deeper into ZFS internals lately. Found some questions asked a couple years ago that looked promising, only to find out that those questions were answered back then. By me. This has happened five times now.

I really need to figure out how to break this cycle of just… having one or two people I can talk to and then being hit by crippling loneliness whenever I don't

Would probably help if I had any motivation to fix it whenever it's not crippling, too

Last week at work I got to play with a bunch of routers and switches and do BGP stuff for a future project. Definitely the most fun I've had at work in a while.

Do worry that I've somehow become the resident BGP expert in my team now, considering all my experience stems from playing around a bit with some people through tunnels.
