I believe at some point people would, I don't know if I would. With the usage of Chromebook's and lite laptops that depend on the cloud for most of the work it definitely looks like its trending there. Maybe if they made a 'dev' lite laptop I'd be sort of interested.
- Roybot 8y agoThanks for the thoughts. I didn't know Chromebooks didn't ship with a hard drive.
- Piskvorrr 8y agoThey do have some storage, sure, but it's there mostly to bootstrap for online operation. I have been running diskless nodes for some time (no storage media at all, netboot all the way), and IMHO we're getting to the point where it could be practical to do that even with a Chromebook.
- Roybot 8y agoGot it. Yeah the idea of a no local storage world sounds interesting. Haven't taken the time to sit down to think about what that implies, like what can we build in that world that couldn't have existed otherwise.
