- The Curse of Unreasonably Sized Networks
Avery Pennarun, Tailscale
What does IPv6 have in common with String Theory? How big can an internet get before parasites use it to destroy democracy? When you're building infrastructure, should scale-invariance be the ultimate goal? Can you give people a useful, verifiable identity without building a panopticon? Did you ever notice that Dunbar's Number fits comfortably in a /24? And what does NAT have to do with anything? We'll answer some of these questions!
Avery is co-founder and CEO of Tailscale, which is the opposite of Internet scale, and it shows. His open source projects include wvdial, netselect, git-subtree, bup, sshuttle, and redo. Once, on vacation, he wrote a visual simulation of wifi beamforming radiation patterns. Nobody knows why.
