alt Hacker NewsEveryone benefits from focusing on efficiency and finding better ways of doing things. Those people with 4TB+ of fast storage can now do more than they could before as can the "bottom tier."
It's a breath of fresh air anytime someone finds a way to do more with less rather than just wait for things to get faster and cheaper.
Of course. And I am not arguing against that at all. Just like if someone makes an inference runtime that is 4% faster, I'll take that win. But would it be the decisive factor in my choice? Only if that was my bottleneck, my true constraint.
All I tried to convey was that for most of the people in the presented scenario (personal emails etc.) , a 50 or even 500GB storage requirement is not going to be that primary constraint. So the suggestion was the marketing for this usecase might be better spotlighting also something else.
