It wasn't the 10GbE adapter
- Symptom
- Transfers to the NAS ran at gigabit speeds over a link the Mac reported as 10Gbase-T, full duplex, active
- Cause
- The two machines were on different subnets, so every packet went through the gateway instead of staying on the switch — because I had filed the NAS on the management network when I built it

How to tell whether you actually got an agent team
- Symptom
- Agents appeared in the panel and there was no way to tell whether a team had formed, whether they coordinated, or whether these were plain subagents
- Cause
- The only live record is a config directory deleted when the session exits, and the obvious ways to read it return false positives

My cameras were eating the 2.4GHz band
- Symptom
- Nest Hubs randomly dropping off WiFi and refusing to reconnect; an Apple TV on the same 2.4GHz IoT SSID stuttering while streaming from a local Plex server
- Cause
- UniFi cameras streaming 143 GB/day of video over 2.4GHz, pinning channel 1 at 95% airtime and starving every other client of transmit opportunities
