Intel Kills Off All Optane-Only SSDs for Consumers, No Replacements Planned

Software hasn't improved in 40 years, really... and now hardware is starting its downhill slide as well.

Good grief.

I remember frequent “System Error Type 11”s from 20 years ago, and (almost!) nothing even equivalent to that in the last decade.

Software has improved a lot, even if UI responsiveness hasn’t.

The very HP Convertible I'm typing on has an Intel Optane drive in it.. for me, this really is the fastest computer I'll ever have, and it really is all downhill from here when this thing dies.

I really meant it, even if I was too grief stricken to express it better.

For me, this marks the end of Moore's law.
