minus-squareValmond@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up8·2 months agoJust a couple of years ago I was sent a dataset by mail, around 1TB on a hard drive. Later I worked on visualization of large datasets, we didn’t have the space to store them locally because they were up to a PB.
minus-squareFuglyDuck@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5·2 months agoWe’re storing data in peanut butter? Please tell me there’s jam involved. /j it’s amazing we’re talking about petabytes. My first computer had like 600 meg. (Pentium 486 cobbled out of spare- old- parts from my dad’s junk”Parts” rack.)
minus-squareValmond@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·2 months ago😁 ya my first “computer” was a ZX-81 with 1kB of ram, type too much and it was full! A card with a whopping 16kB later came to the rescue. It’s been a wild time in history.
minus-squareuis@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·edit-22 months agoMail dataset in standard-compliant way. Like RFC1149. Don’t forget that carrier should be avian carrier. we didn’t have the space to store them locally because they were up to a PB. Local is very vague word. It can be argued, that anything, that doesn’t fit into L1 cache is not local.
minus-squareValmond@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·2 months agoLocal as not in the building in that case :-) RFC1149 lol yeah wasn’t that a norwegian experiment at some sub-bits per second? Thanks for making me remember!
