Ask HN: Should I reprogram for NV memory

Somebody suggested I program my stack for NV using intels dev kit. I found lots of info on pmem.io. Seems all these options make our programs horribly non portable.

Way back in the day you'd have to reprogram for each type of memory/storage combination you had. Some embedded systems are still that way. It's an EXTREME pain. NV programming is a fad from Intel to lock people into a particular tech, just like memkind and the like. Don't do it!
