 I'm starting to look at programming languages like vehicles. The older ones are much simpler and easier to hack around on, but this is probably not as 'safe' as a language like Rust. I'm generally in favor of *most* safety features they put on cars, but, speaking as a former mechanic, I can't say I agreed with all of them. 
 
 I think this may be similar to the arguments over languages like C/C++ vs Rust and Zig.

+I installed NixOS tonight because I have a WFH day at work tomorrow due to the heat. I've messed with Nix and building in the past and it's not gone well. Got this working it seems.

+After checking out the `nix` branch, run `nix-shell` in the cloned directory and then `gcc -o ip-reporter ip-reporter.c -lpcap`. Worked great.
