Not your everyday requirement, also ML is somewhat tolerant to small faults like that.

Not your everyday requirement, also ML is somewhat tolerant to small faults like that.
- bitL 9y agoDepends. If a bit is flipped in a dataset you are likely fine, if in code your computation might crash. If you use enterprise-grade software like ZFS filesystem that keeps a lot in memory, it's much better to have ECC and accept a bit slower memory access for a bit better protection.
- OoooooooO 9y agoZFS without ECC is pretty useless ...
- michaelmrose 9y agoZFS is no more vulnerable to corruption when running without ECC than any other file system. The developers of zfs suggest ECC because ECC is a worthwhile thing for those who care about their data. You should stop spreading misinformation.
