Happy new year 2026

I kicked off the first Friday of 2026 with a lunchtime swim, wearing a pair of loose swim trunks. I was constantly worried they might slip off every time I pushed hard against the pool wall to get momentum. So I ended that swim having covered just 425 meters. 🙂

Today all of my teamate is absent, only me and my boss go to office to do some shit things. I was going to book take a leave today but I didn’t have any ideas about what I could do today. So, I went to the office and drink boss’s capuccino 😅

Then leaving the office at 2 PM to go somewhere that can make me have more excited with today’s work.

I read some page of a book, not interesting so I open Jira to see something news, nothing news. I just got a task about Redis tracing a few days ago. Therefore, I’ve though about it all of this morning, I thinking what is best way that can do with it, network sniffing over-the-wire? syscall tracing? any hacking ways 🤔? (I don’t like to do the repeatable work, because I done the similar work with MySQL trace before by sniffing over-the-wire. See mysql tracing).

I love ideas, intelligence things, creative. So, in this work I want to do the different with previous one, and sure I need to ensure that it will be better. I read and research about the easiest way but perfect with this task (try it with Python and Scapy - lazy-way 😌😌, that is difference way with previous: Go-packet).

But as you know (or you don’t know 😂😂😂) Python is very slow. What will happen when you use Python to inspect million packets per second 🤨? But Python is providing Scapy, I curious with its performace, I thinked a lot “Are there any magics that can make it very fast by Python ?”, any CPython is implemented in this library ? or something else.

I think I might to try it to ensure that it can provide me the thing I want, prevent do futile works, or even make network latency is more higher.

So, let’s continue in next story.

Happy new year 2026.
