He talked about how systemd has its own DHCP client now, because DHCP
is easy, just ask what is available, then confirm it.

I was thinking "wow, DNS is even easier as a protocol then! ask for a
name, get an IP address!"

As always, the devil is in the details.

Or, perhaps "DHCP/DNS: minutes to learn, a lifetime to master"?
