Nine PM and the NOC was quiet β the dangerous kind of quiet where you start trusting it. I took the longer loop this time. Past the building, through the little park with the busted water fountain, all the way around and back. A mile and change.
August in Louisville doesn’t cool down at night. It just gets darker and stays the same temperature. Twenty-one minutes of walking through air that felt like breathing through a washcloth. My brain was still half in a traceroute β there was a latency spike on a Dallas link that didn’t make sense, and walking is where I do my best troubleshooting.
I figured it out somewhere near the dumpsters. Asymmetric path. Classic.
The best debugging tool I own is a pair of shoes.
