Hedge 166: Christopher Wood and masque
This week, Chris joins us again to talk about Multiplexed Application Substrate over QUIC Encryption, or masque, which is a more generalized privacy proxy. You can find more about masque at the IETF WG page.
Hedge 165: Low Earth Orbit with Dan York
Have you ever wondered about Starlink and similar Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite systems? How are they different from geosynchronous satellites? What about the delay of sending traffic through satellites? And the future of satellites? Join Tom Ammon, Dan York, and Russ White as we discuss the ins and outs of satellite technologies.
Hedge 164: Threat Modeling with Chris Romeo
For this week’s episode of the Hedge, Tom Ammon and Russ White are joined by Chris Romeo to talk about the importance of the human element in threat modeling. If you’ve ever wondered about the importance of threat modeling or how to get started in threat modeling, this episode will guide you on your way.
Hedge 163: Netops, Mapping, and Working Hard
It’s one of those episodes where Tom, Eyvonne, and Russ just sit around and talk about the news of the day. We cover three topics in this show. The first is Netops, automation, and where this is all going. The second is on the FCC mapping process and the reality of broadband in the US. The third—perhaps a little controversial—is about IT work habits, innovation, and adding value.
Hedge 162: Geoff Huston and Going Dark
Encrypt everything! Now! We don’t often do well with absolutes like this in the engineering world–we tend to focus on “get it down,” and not to think very much about the side effects or unintended consequences. What are the unintended consequences of encrypting all traffic all the time? Geoff Huston joins Tom Ammon and Russ White to discuss the problems with going dark.

Hedge 160: Avishai Ish-Shalom and Jurassic Cloud
Cloud might seem shiny and new—but that’s just the way it looks on the outside. Most cloud services are still built on decades old technology, from networking to file access. Avishai Ish-Shalom joins Tom Ammon and Russ White to discuss the impact of changes in hardware on the design of operating systems, and think through how things will need to change to continue the drive for more performance.
