Is it possible to abstract the compute or memory of hosts in a data center? I'm thinking of a compute/memory version of a storage array.
Yes, you can virtualize and cluster resources using a hypervisor and all that, but, from my experience, the memory and compute of the physical host are still married together. A VM on host A only has those compute and memory resources available. It could move to host B but then it's limited to those resources.
Also, in a storage array you can replace a failing disk, add a disk, or even add an additional chassis. With the current model you're going to buy an entire additional host if you need additional memory and get unnecessary compute thrown in as well instead of just adding extra sticks of RAM.
So you end up with a physically deconstructed server (memory, compute, and storage) that is then logically reunited in a software-defined sort of manner

@Chris Fisher needs to chill and embrace openness and transparency re: these Flock cameras. The cops are busy and need this tool. That's fine. They can simply produce evidence of their productivity to the public. We can install employee monitoring software on their computers/phones and every week they can publicly report on what they worked on. If they're not doing anything wrong then they won't have anything to worry about after all

Ever vanish mid-conversation? We debate the ethics of ghosting, and Chris confesses he’s an accidental serial offender. Plus, why he's a big fan ...
Cooked up some beef heart for lunch

Dang. All the topics I followed went bye-bye. No wonder nostr seemed so quiet. How does this happen?

Idk if this is an unpopular position but the fetishization of blue collar work is cringe
In the market for a new-to-us car. Used salesmen just ain't made like they used to be. Half were so low energy and seemingly disinterested in our money. That's what happens when coke is no longer a socially acceptable industry standard

I need help!
Our [OXO coffee grinder](https://www.oxo.com/conical-burr-coffee-grinder.html) seems to be not long for this life. Had it 5 years but am having issues with it now.
So what do y'all grind your beans with?
