Developer's Corner / Re: Resources for learning git?
« on: October 04, 2015, 07:14 PM »
I found the explanation of rebase in terms of cherry-picking to be useful and diagrams seemed appropriately employed in explanations (will there be a UI at some point that allows manipulation of repositories via graphical means? [1]).

In general I found the order of presentation to be sensible.  A bit odd at times where things that seemed quite basic were explained given the title of the talk (e.g. about abbreviating commit hashes), but found it worth watching.

Thanks again, phitsc.

Hadn't seen that one.  Thanks for sharing!



Here might be the slides:

FWIW, the fourth side gives an overview of what's covered.

Temporary Address Parameters
---------------------------------------------
Use Temporary Addresses             : enabled
Duplicate Address Detection Attempts: 3
Maximum Valid Lifetime              : 7d
Maximum Preferred Lifetime          : 1d
Regenerate Time                     : 5s
Maximum Random Time                 : 10m
Random Time                         : 5m27s

I tried the command for a Windows environment and observed "enabled" as well.

when I check out ipconfig /all, I see my MAC in my IPv6 address...

FWIW, for ipconfig /all, when I look at the value for "Physical Address" and compare it with "Link-local IPv6 Address", I don't see much similarity.

Thanks for the links.

IIUC, it may be relatively straight-forward to check from a terminal app in Android whether privacy extensions are in use:

ip a

The result may show information for various network interfaces -- for WiFi, a typical interface name is wlan0.  Examine the displayed MAC address and IPv6 address -- roughly, if the last 3 bytes are the same in both, I think it's a good bet that (at least for that interface) the extensions are not in use.
