Yahoo, Google, and eBay were built with gasp spinning hard disks.
But fine, if you don't believe it I will happily extend an invitation to come see in person my racks of spinning rust and 10 year old servers in Los Angeles or Fremont that are running services that are used by millions of end users. My email is in my profile.
- PragmaticPulp 5y ago> Yahoo, Google, and eBay were built with gasp spinning hard disks. Which they ditched as soon as physically possible. The internet has changed a lot since then. That much should be obvious. You can't reduce this article to "millions of end users" and then equate it with every other service. There's more to this article/service than you're suggesting, and there's more to a website than just users/month.
