What I Learned From Building A Network Tunnel
I’ve encountered several mentions of Wireguard on the net without being curious about its inner workings. I’ve come across multiple mentions of VPNs on the net without (again) ever being curious about their inner workings. This year, I decided to be curious about it. Since Wireguard has been touted as a simple VPN protocol and implementation, it seemed the perfect gateway to finally understand those sorts. Now, I believe that to strongly understand a computer-related topic, you should at least build a simple implementation of it. That is what Steve and I did.

Practical OAuth Part One
OAuth (Open Authorization) is an open standard for access delegation, commonly used for internet users to grant websites or applications access to their information on other websites without giving them the passwords.
