  1. I'm fortunate enough to have been born in a period where the internet did not exist. So I saw everything from the beginning as it was being set up in my section of Terra. The internet was such a peaceful place; we could transmit UID PASS information in ASCII text!

    In the period I was born, the smart network people were not even talking about milnet / arpanet

    I'm one of the three persons who is also fortunate enough to build the architecture of the internet in my country of SR SA. At that point in time our phone company had high level Engineers who did not even know the difference between an IP address and a physical House address, let alone know how to ask through Archie.ans.net what a specific RFC is and how it should be downloaded with [email protected].

    None of them could speak Hayes commands like ATX3DT ATA

  4. От «LO» до WWW: История создания Интернета

    Мы пройдем по самым интересным техническим граблям создателей сети: от концепции «Галактической сети» Ликлайдера до первого в истории упавшего сервера и того дня, когда интернет чуть не стерла уборщица с пылесосом в CERN. Разбираемся, как зоопарк несовместимых машин превратился в нервную систему планеты.

  5. Случайный апокалипсис: Как 99 строк кода Роберта Морриса навсегда изменили интернет

    Представьте себе интернет 1988 года: всего 60 000 узлов, ламповая атмосфера полного доверия между университетами и военными базами, а пароли спокойно пересылаются открытым текстом. Никаких шифровальщиков, ботнетов и DDoS-атак. Но 2 ноября 23-летний аспирант Корнеллского университета Роберт Моррис запустил безобидный исследовательский скрипт, в котором таилась одна математическая ошибка. За считанные часы эти 99 строк кода положили 10% всего тогдашнего интернета, вызвали панику в MIT и Пентагоне, и заставили сисадминов физически рубить кабели маршрутизаторов.

  8. You may have seen a "today in history"-type toot going around that talked about ARPAnet switching to the IP protocol, effectively being the birth of the internet. It was a long time ago.

    And it made me realize that the internet per se was only 3 years old when I first experienced it.

  13. Vor 43 Jahren: Wie TCP/IP aus ARPANET das Internet machte
    Am 1. Januar 1983 startete ein Protokollwechsel, der das Fundament für das heutige Internet legte. ARPANET stellte schrittweise vom Network Control Program (NCP) auf TCP/IP um.

  15. Happy birthday to the Internet!

    On this day in 1983, the ARPANET network officially switched to using the TCP/IP protocol, effectively creating the Internet. usg.edu/galileo/skills/unit07/

  19. With Netrunner

    Telehack is a simulation of a stylized arpanet/usenet, circa 1985-1990. It is a full multi-user simulation, including 26,600+ simulated hosts from the early net, thousands of files from the era, a collection ofadventure and IF games, a working BASIC interpreter with a library of programs to run, simulated historical users..

  20. I've had this book in PDF format for a few years, and I'd forgotten about it.
    I stumbled across it again while browsing telehack.com/

    A very interesting read!

    If you're into the internet of the '80s and '90s, I highly recommend checking out #Telehack. It's pretty wild!

  21. Une conférence datant de 2023, mais riche en informations et en échanges : “Internet, histoire et enjeu” par Gérard Le Lann. La présentation aborde également, avec un regard critique, le rôle de Louis Pouzin dans le projet #Cyclades et le développement du #datagramme.

  22. Das #ARPANet, der Vorgänger des #Internet, wurde mal entwickelt, um im Kriegsfalle einen kompletten #Systemausfall durch Ausfall von Teilsystemen zu verhindern. Das Routing setzt dann dynamisch andere Wege um, so dass das verbleibende Netz ungestört weiter machen kann.

    Gestern musste ich sehr dringend noch einen
    #Kickstarter, an dem ich teilgenommen habe, mit einem Eintrag im #Bakerkit finalisieren.

    Auf beide Services konnte ich nicht zugreifen, weil eine kryptische Meldung des Services
    #Cloudflare mir dies verweigerte.

    "Das Internet" ist irgendwann total falsch abgebogen, als Services auf einmal alle zentralisiert wurden..

  24. There's a mantra about the importance of redundancy that originated a long time ago in the military but applies in many contexts, including system and network administration.

    "Two is one, and one is none." 🖥️ 🖥️

    It's the design concept of the Internet itself—when it was still called "ARPANET". The idea was that in the event of a nuclear strike where a large part of the country was wiped off the face of the Earth, surviving systems and 'inter-networks' in other geographical regions would still be able to communicate with each other with little or no manual reconfiguration.

    Resilience in the wake of failure was the goal, communication was to be ensured at all costs.

    RAID, failover WAN, BGP (and TCP/IP routing in general), server clustering all mitigate downtime in the event of failure of a single component (or even scheduled maintenance where pieces must be taken offline).

    It's a practice that I won't say I'm *obsessed* over, but I absolutely enjoy employing it wherever I can, even if it seems overkill. ✅ 💙 😎 Call it my inner-prepper, I dunno 😂

  27. Die 1. eMail wurde in 1971 verschickt.

    Historischer Moment ✉️ Die erste #eMail wurde 1971 von #RayTomlinson verschickt – ein unscheinbarer Start einer globalen #Kommunikationsrevolution.

    Technisches Experiment 💻 Damals gab es kein Internet, wie wir es heute kennen, sondern nur das #ARPANET, ein Netzwerk weniger Rechner.

    Das berühmte @-Zeichen 🔤 #Tomlinson entschied sich spontan für das @-Symbol, um #Nutzername und #Rechneradresse zu verbinden. (1/2)

  28. "The first two-network TCP/IP transmission was between the [Packet Radio Van] and ARPANET on August 27, 1976; the van was parked next to Rossotti's (since 1956, officially the "Alpine Inn"), a well-known Portola Valley, California biker bar, and wires were run to one of the picnic tables."

  29. @carlmalamud we have never met - but I wanted to say I was listening yesterday to the Geek of the Week conversation town.hall.org/radio/Geek/09299 with Robert Braden. as I was trying to figure out how #ARPANET worked on System/360 computers.

    Thank you!
