BTW , the TCO for allflash is really close to hybrid at this point . Pure Storage does a really good job with TCO from a sales point with their Evergreen Storage guarantees free controller upgrades and disk equity . A hyperconverged solution does the same thing , but without having to worry about replacing the controller or disks at all . For example , look at the TCO of your system over 5 years . If you buy an allflash hyperconverged solution , you just add more nodes over time . So perhaps in 5 years you store a few less VMs on a node that you did when it was new , but it ' s still extremely viable . <| sep |> Depends on whether you stand by the saying the enemy of my enemy is my friend . I ' ll always find at least some common ground with people who oppose SJWs . It ' s an Enemy Mine situation . I am concerned about their hiveminded nature . I wouldn ' t call the altright something to be admired . It ' s not exactly an intellectual movement . They ' re the jesters of the rightwing you admire their humour and passion , but you ' re not gonna ask them about the truly deep questions , because they usually won ' t have any refreshing or insightful answers . You ' ll mostly get to hear it ' s all a Jewish conspiracy . Which isn ' t entirely false , but it ' s not the magic answer to every problem of the 21 st century . Many of them seem to think that it is . In simple terms They challenge things , but do not provide solutions . If they were to somehow get exactly what they want , they ' d be in a what now ? situation . They don ' t look ahead , only focusing on past current events . Outrage is what fuels them . If they run out of steam , there ' s not much for them left to do . And without an enemy to focus on , they ' d be lost . The movement is all about conflict . Not all of them are stooges of course , but nevertheless , the general themes patterns of the altright are obvious to me .
