University of Toronto ☛ Using IPv6 has quietly become reliable (for me)
I've had IPv6 at home for a long time, first in tunneled form and later in native form, and recently I brought up more or less native IPv6 for my work desktop. When I first started using IPv6 (at home) and for many years afterward, there were all sorts of complications and failures that could be attributed to IPv6 or that went away when I turned off IPv6. To be honest, when I enabled IPv6 on my work desktop I expected to run into a fun variety of problems due to this, since before then it had been IPv4 only.
To my surprise, my work desktop has experienced no problems since enabling IPv6 connectivity. I know I'm using some websites over IPv6 and I can see IPv6 traffic happening, but at the personal level, I haven't noticed anything different. When I realized that, I thought back over my experiences at home and realized that it's been quite a while since I had a problem that I could attribute to IPv6. Quietly, while I wasn't particularly noticing, the general Internet IPv6 environment seems to have reached a state where it just works, at least for me.

Bob Monsour ☛ Slashing by caching
And for each of these "appearances," or renderings a few things happen. I use the eleventy-fetch plugin to fetch the full html of the post. Each of these fetches is cached and their cache duration (set as an option to the fetch) is set to infinity as I do not expect the pages to change. They're blog posts after all and who changes their blog posts. I will admit that I, from time to time, make some minor changes to a post, but I don't expect that to happen often. And though a post may change, it is not often that the link to the post changes or the description of the post changes. So, I cache the fetches for a very long time.
