15 open source applications for macOS

https://github.com/VCVRack/Rack is a cool one. I recently worked on getting it to auto-build for MacOSX & Linux after a friend that uses it said they were dependent on community to build. Anyone that knows how to build MSYS2 for Windows from Linux, hit me up, as the author is only interested in CI if it builds every single platform. :S

6 RFCs for understanding how the internet works

- 0114 : File Transfer Protocol.
- 4250 - 4256 : SSH
- 0097 : First Cut at a Proposed Telnet Protocol.

I think all have been revised, but I find internet history interesting. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_World_Wide_Web is also some good reading, as-is meeting or knowing a radio ham from the 70's or 80's.
