You can leave the HDD, replace Windows with #Linux and probably still be under 10s

@Goldiez2599 @Cloudflare @eastdakota @zatlyn @icqheretic pls, don't spam me

@ignatkn @Cloudflare @eastdakota @zatlyn @icqheretic Oh thats cool

PSA: after incredible 10y 10m I'm leaving @Cloudflare to try something new. This journey was incredible and probably made me who I am today Thank you so much for this opportunity @eastdakota, @zatlyn and @icqheretic and I will continue to help build a better Internet on the side

@Goldiez2599 @Cloudflare @eastdakota @zatlyn @icqheretic Yes, you should see my new cool email git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/…

@ignatkn @Cloudflare @eastdakota @zatlyn @icqheretic Ooooo 🫵 you stealing Linux

@Goldiez2599 @Cloudflare @eastdakota @zatlyn @icqheretic oops? github.com/ignatk/linux (did I just leak #Linux source code again?)

@ignatkn @Cloudflare @eastdakota @zatlyn @icqheretic As long as you don’t fork a repo, good luck to you!

@hibakod @Cloudflare @eastdakota @zatlyn @icqheretic As far as I know Vercel does not have their own infrastructure, so my skills are not useful to them

@ignatkn @Cloudflare @eastdakota @zatlyn @icqheretic If you defect to Vercel it would be like pouring gasoline on a campfire

@0xRapid @Cloudflare @eastdakota @zatlyn @icqheretic There is a lot to do still to make the Internet a better place. I will probably retire when all the bugs in the Linux kernel will be fixed...

@ignatkn @Cloudflare @eastdakota @zatlyn @icqheretic Holy, 11 years! you can possibly retired with the amount of stocks 😂

@carste1n @Cloudflare @eastdakota @zatlyn @icqheretic

@ignatkn @Cloudflare @eastdakota @zatlyn @icqheretic "probably made me who I am today" Hey, you can't blame Cloudflare for that! :P And on the more serious note - I really enojyed working with you and best of luck in future adventures.

@ishanjain28 @Cloudflare @eastdakota @zatlyn @icqheretic Thanks! Will try to post more tech stuff then

@ignatkn @Cloudflare @eastdakota @zatlyn @icqheretic (although there weren't any new posts in a while) I loved reading your blog posts on CF's blog and tech tweets here. Best of luck in your new role, wherever you go! :)

Love the food, but the dirty bill on a plate and the seller touching it with the same hand as they touch food makes me want to vomit

Make sure to watch my talk online from #NDCSecurity when it is up. I accidentally stage-dived during my presentation and flipped a table with glasses. So if not for the content, at least for the laughs.

My team @Cloudflare is looking for an Engineering Manager! This is THE BEST position to help build a better Internet, because the Internet runs on #Linux job-boards.greenhouse.io/cloudflare/job…

Oops, I did it again!

TFW you've managed to fix a stuck key on an outdoor security keypad by fully disconnecting, disassembling, cleaning, reassembling and connecting it. And it still works!

@Soulfoodiiee Where does one get "organic water"?

@popovicu94 Well, it was (I hope not "is") "do one thing (encryption) and do it not so well"... blog.cloudflare.com/speeding-up-li… But you're right - it tried to do more than one thing

Full disk encryption on Linux scrambles most of the bytes on your partition, including the filesystem metadata. Most because it encrypts everything except for the LUKS header itself, which stores encryption metadata. If you look at the raw disk, you won't see file headers, directory structures, or even what type of filesystem is installed. You just see encrypted noise. This happens because LUKS sits at the block layer. It creates a virtual device (via the device mapper) that sits on top of your physical disk. Write: The kernel sends data to the virtual device -> LUKS encrypts it -> writes encrypted bytes to the physical disk. Read: You read from the virtual device -> LUKS fetches encrypted bytes -> decrypts it on the fly. This architecture provides flexibility. Because the decrypted virtual device looks exactly like a standard hard drive to the kernel, you can format it with anything. You can put ext4, XFS, or something else inside a LUKS container. The filesystem doesn't even know it's being encrypted. It’s a perfect example of the Unix philosophy: do one thing (encryption) and do it well, then pipe it to the next tool.

Merry Christmas, #Linux nerds! 2026 Year of Linux desktop FTW!

@brankopetric00 why not just install glibc into your alpine?

Alpine Linux images are great until a dependency needs glibc instead of musl. Start with Alpine. Switch to Debian slim when it breaks. The 50MB you save isn't worth the 6 hours debugging why your Python package won't compile. Pragmatism over purity.

@majek04 Not really... It is about your old job...

@ignatkn British vs American English? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capitaliz…

The internet has been a mess since I left. Should I go back to my old job and turn it off and on again for everyone?
