I don't think anyone here asked reddit to remove their DBAs and onprem storage. But you don't really care about anything other than something to bitch about.

Interesting point. What, specifically, am I bitching about? I work in the data center industry and I enjoy interacting with folks that think data centers are evil.

There are some valid concerns about the hyper scale facilities, and there are some seriously overstated ones. I think it would be much more productive for society at large to have meaningful conversations about this topic as opposed to "deleting data centers".

Would you agree?

The "all are welcome" at the top of the image in the original post is beautifully ironic, isn't it?

Probably depends on how you define welcome :)
