My perspective is that they're trying to get the same talent for less money. If it didn't save money compared to doing something else, or if they didn't at least think it did, they wouldn't do it. This isn't even complicated, it's business.

It used to be that business worked with education in order to foster the kinds of skills that would be needed in the future, then trained employees for specific jobs as needed. But the quality doesn't drop enough for the average customer to notice when they use the current method of firing long-term employees in favor of some new guy who has the new thing on his resume already. This is the only thing needed to explain why it's all outsourcing and H1Bs. Nobody wants to invest in a country any more, all of the corporations think they're above such petty things... until a war starts for economic reasons they caused.

So, at first when they were introduced they were faster, because they used cores comparable to your CPU. That's why they were expensive. Then cheaper ones were introduced, they did less of the work, they were slower. In that case more of the "RAID" magic is happening in the driver instead of on the card. But expensive RAID controllers with full offloading were still fast. Eventually our CPUs got to be fast, and now software RAID is usually faster.

In the case of hwraid vs swraid, there is another reason not to use the hwraid — your devices get married to that controller. There are utilities which can convert the data to work with another controller, but what a hassle.

Anyway yes this technique currently requires a CXL controller, it seems as though it is really just a way to reduce the latency penalty for using one.

Sure, if you have no experience and want to share your feelings about it.

This is a matter of perspective. Where you're shipping many units and want to save money, it can easily be false, as it was in both of my examples.

The technique is especially useful on even more constrained systems, like embedded controllers in 3d printers and such. The only places I've ever needed ZRAM were on a phone with 512MB and on my 3d printer with 256MB.

Sure I did. Everybody knows what a clueless loser you are, son, with your r(etared)silvergun(shooting blanks) sock puppets are. But if it makes you feel like your penis isn't quite so small to lie to yourself, you be you.

Not run along and have some sock puppets downvote me, and maybe your Chinese mommy will give you a cookie.

Nope. Such beliefs are just your Pizza-Gater mentality manifesting itself.

Nope. You are bigoted against those who believe differently than you politically. Who you falsely imagine are criminals as a pretext to rationalization your bigotry. You are ironically the mental equivalent of a Pizza-Gater.

Nope. Since the birth of their Islamic Revolution in 1979, when they removed the Shah that had ruled since 1941 (installed by the British and Soviets by pressuring his father to abdicate), when they decided they wanted to evangelize their form of Islam and control the region, and need the US to leave the region to accomplish that. The coup you referred to was in 1953 (British and US backed) and removed the Prime Minister when he got into a power struggle with the Shah. That PM was not an islamic revolutionary, he was oil focused, was failing to manage the industry properly, was losing popularity, tried for a power grab himself that failed, etc.

Yes, that's pretty much all you say.

I see you've never been involved in hiring. I'm not surprised, I wouldn't involve you either.

If you were a native English speaker you would understand it immediately, Ivan.

You mean since we did a coup in their country? I wonder what about that could upset them. Stupid fucking maggot.

I am not thankful you have outed yourself as a fan of child rape. I wish you would stop supporting it.

I admit I'm bigoted against racist child rape enthusiasts

"Israel's more ethnically diverse than any European country"

Sure, it's filled with Europeans.

Taking that tack will always be disappointing because maggots still are observing the command to ignore the evidence of their eyes and ears and believe all that dear leader tells them.
