The entire cloud movement is recapitulating the development of the mainframe: containers, io budgets, metered usage, etc. Our industry has the memory of a bright dog.
- imtringued 5y agoWhat's wrong with adopting a model that works? It's not like IBM was trying to make it accessible in the first place.
- michael1999 5y agoMy complaint is that we ignored these lessons for 40 years, not that we are finally beginning to take them seriously now.

- michael1999 5y agoThat we let Intel turn ecc into a premium feature to support market segmentation for a generation, and completely ignored data integrity in our storage systems while disk capacities reached terabytes was definitely a bad thing, and that’s on us as an industry.
