Honoring Dave Täht and his contributions to a better Internet (video calls included)
Dave Täht died this week (August 11, 1965 – April 1, 2025), and Tom Strickx, Principal Network Engineer at Cloudflare, honors his contributions to help build a better Internet.
Dave Täht was an American network engineer, musician, lecturer, asteroid exploration advocate, and Internet activist.
Without his work, FQ-CoDel wouldn't exist — and low-latency networking, from Wi-Fi to Starlink and video calls, would likely be worse today.
