Whew! I took the ends off three fingers on my left hand in a woodworking accident a few years ago, and boy did I learn to type quickly with just my right hand. In retrospect, I really should have just gone all-in on a chorded keyboard then. But I wasn't quite foresightful enough.
...or EUR 44k for the Ioniq 6, which is also a _really nice_ car, and is the second fastest charging, by one measure, getting 253km of range in just ten minutes. They're very pretty, I've seen quite a few around Paris already.
It looks like a BGP hijack to me. Orange Cote d'Ivoire are just announcing the 38.230.3.46/24 more-specific from their AS29571, and nobody's filtering it.
Cogent is in the midst of three different peering disputes, with Tata, NTT, and HE, so their connectivity is pretty limited at the moment. Most people cannot reach https://http://c.root-servers.org for instance.
There's been a lot of conversation in different channels about whether this is sufficient to call their competency to run a root into question.

Bill WoodcockFor anybody who hasn't seen it yet, Key Bridge collapsed, in Maryland / DC. Fortunately it was the wee hours of the morning, but still more than a dozen vehicles in the water, and people, to be recovered. Looking closely at the vehicles on the center span, it seems like they were stopped, with flashing lights, so perhaps the bridge was already blocked and they were emergency responders?
Careful repeating this, it contains a lot of misinformation; perhaps disinformation. The only source for the attribution to the Houthis is a single anonymous Twitter account. It's actually three cables not four (Seacom and TGN are the same cable on that segment) and the interarrival time of these outages is not out-of-the-ordinary.
Also, there's no observed effect yet, in the sense that all traffic observed thus far is being successfully re-routed, so there's no "harm" in the sense of public impact.
To my view, the most important issue is that cable repair ships are, while well-insured, also slow and expensive to build, so it may be that the reason we've stacked up three outages at once is because nobody feels like risking the future revenue of a cable ship that ventures into an area with live anti-ship missile fire.
Also worthy of note that we've been in exactly this situation before, in 2008 and 2011.
The Optus outage was indeed iBGP, and it affected the underlying data routing across their network. That was visible in their Internet service. Have you seen any reports of AT&T fixed broadband having been affected? If it had anything to do with peering, that would also have been down. The fact that AT&T was urging affected customers to switch to "wi-fi calling" and that that was mostly working, would seem to indicate that there were not problems on the data network. That some "wi-fi calls" were not going through can be attributed, like the people complaining to T-Mobile and Verizon, to people trying to reach AT&T mobile customers.
Again, I don't yet have a theory that I believe holds water, I'm just trying to rule out things that appear to be contradicted by the facts as reported thus far.
