I was an SSD fan ...
You can thank me later 
? ? ?
What was your involvement? NVRAM or controller development? Civil or military?
I realize SSDs date back to the late 1980s. I'm fascinated by the early history.
I always saw storage as the main performance bottleneck in any computer system. I figured when cheap low-power-consumption high-capacity dependable solid state storage was achieved, we'd see a whole new world of portable devices.
It's not surprising that the first netbooks and then smartphones and tablets followed closely behind the development of MLC and TLC flash and controllers with improved wear leveling and garbage collection algorithms. Sure, improved battery and radio technologies helped but the mobile revolution was spurred by SSDs.
Inb4 jbreher fully dox himself: He is a fucking good mass storage engineer/developer. Would love he tells us more details if he feels like. He may have a wrong view of what is the true Bitcoin but the guy really knows his shit and has more high stakes pro level technical background that most of us here. Respect.
To a man with a hammer, everything looks like a nail
I am retarded... what does that mean in this case?
Of course he believes in big blocks. He is a mass storage engineer. To him, the solution to all (most) problems is more storage.

Ask a lawyer how to fix Bitcoin and they will say you need to build in AML. Ask a banker how to fix Bitcoin and they will tell you you need a central permissioning authority. Ask an accountant and they will tell you you need an API to the IRS. Ask a mass storage engineer and get a mass storage solution.....
Big blocks are just another form of mass storage.
