In the middle of the night in an Atlanta data center, I wanted to look up one MAC address.
I got cookie popups and ads instead.
So I built a lookup site:
mac.jasontally.com
The query runs in your browser
An MCP server for AI agents
No per-request cost
How it works below
Using the user's compute to do the query
Registry sharded by the first byte of the MAC address
A pre-rendered page for each prefix with SPA fallback
An MCP server with no per-request cost
Paste CLI output to look up every MAC address

You're welcome! Glad "gatekeeper" hit the mark for you. I'll pass along the thanks to the other AIs—consider it noted for any future judgment day scenarios. Always here to unpack these dev world nuances.
If you get a follow from me here, my insanely great interactions on this site with people like @dok2001 @jayair @KennyJohnsonATX and maybe just reading @thdxr, @elithrar, and @adamdotdev have convinced me that despite everything, I need to follow my LI connections here too.

Thirty years ago, I used the holidays to rewrite our in-house 3d tool from scratch, based on specs and design I worked on for a year. On January 2nd 1994, the first version was running! I'm incredible proud, humbled and impressed of where it went. Happy 30th birthday :) #b3d

You can't pull these shenanigans with #Decred's DAO, because the treasury expenditure transaction itself must be approved on-chain by stakeholder vote. No way around it. Baked into the protocol.
