@h3artbl33d There are a lot of ZFS myths that need to die. No filesystem is perfect, and yes, you can lose data with ZFS. You can get bad performance with ZFS. It's not a magic wand that makes your system flawless forever.

42 year old me wishes 21 year old me hadn’t been talked into doing a PhD in AI and machine learning. I’d really like to be excited about all the AI/ML work going on at the moment, but all I’m seeing is the same problems/mistakes of 20 years ago, but with more CPU resources.
