Huh. I believe that, but didn’t know it (I write apps for Apple kit). I have done low-level networking stuff that would definitely have run into issues, but that was over ten years ago. These days, I rely on the upper layer of the stack.
I really should try an exercise like the one the author did. I’m not necessarily against IPv6, but I’m still a bit skeptical of it. We’ll likely be forced into it, as there’s no alternative, but that’s not exactly a ringing endorsement.
