@avery have I mentioned how much I adore the remarkable tablet?

@jakob @uint8_t the hyperscalers really want silicon photonics since they forecast that almost all of the power consumption in future switches is just heating up the copper traces (current switches are already over 1/3)

@uint8_t reading the other replies, I see you already figured that out and are planning on SFP+...

@uint8_t for that sort of scale SSD + RAID6 is feasible, so you don't need to go fancy with the drive controllers. One caveat for 10Gbase-T is that the phy alone can consume multiple watts per port, so if you multi-home it you might be close to your power budget just from the network stack.

@uint8_t have you looked at the Knox cold storage nodes? They only spin up one disk at a time and can run an entire multi-petabyte rack in less than a kilowatt.

@futzle @david last year, against astronomical odds, I encountered *two* black swans.

@yaelwrites I've switched back to one of my favorite analog watches that encourages you to feel what time it is, rather than look at the dial.

@GNUxeava @avery even Apple, despite controling their entire hardware and software stack, says that USB-C is not actually universal.

@avery "*It's always a USB-C problem*" is the local version of "*It's always DNS*".

@mcc every commerce site should be required to license McMaster-Carr's parametric search backend.

@mcc @_benui also Ada, although the integer range checking can be turned off.

some days the weather is just to nice to go to the gym to use the rowing machine.

@mxshift our place was wired with Cat5 and works with PoE, which does require a slightly fancier switch than usual home gear.
