Going to likely be moving back from a customer/relationship facing role, returning to actually doing engineering. Relying/Living off of adrenaline for the last 9 months has been pushing me to be less and less effective.

Hey friends! At #ALL.IN in Montreal, would Love to say hi!

I have taken the Tylenol that was in the medicine cabinet and which they think probably is the reason you like trains forgive me but that’s bullshit you got autism from your dad

Look what just landed in the lab

New #ISC25 podcast with Kevin Jackson on ISC highlights on connecting everything, #AI vs. #HPC? No! HPC is the Engine for AI and AI is HPC. Precision boosting, Ultra Ethernet, Reasoning Language Models, AI applications, and Supercomputing as driver for future societies!

Very interesting to me that it will only be a 6 X increase in DGEMM. Fugaku is famously under provisioned for low precision flops, I must wonder if this is an over correction?

This was super fun! Thanks to @nickbrown-hpc.bsky.social for the invitation and @epcc.bsky.social for hosting a lovely conference!

Was great fun teaching the @tenstorrent.bsky.social tutorial at @ieeexplore.bsky.social #CLUSTER with @fclc.bsky.social this week. And thanks Owain Kenway for finding (and fixing!) the bugs in the practical exercises ;) Great to introduce the architecture to new people!

The £750m UK Next National Supercomputer will be hosted by EPCC and is expected to launch in 2027. In his Universities UK article, EPCC Director Prof. Mark Parsons explains why supercomputers are vital for research and discovery, from designing aircraft engines to drug discovery: edin.ac/45XUwwO

Hey friends! Will be at #ieee #cluster next week in #Edinburgh hosted by @epcc.bsky.social! Would love to say hi!

I’m increasingly convinced by an argument I saw recently that LLMs are effectively power tools (apologies for not remembering the cite!): - Incredibly useful for experts in a field that are able to correct for their errors - Really dangerous for layfolk who don’t know what they don’t know

dear lady who's holding a soldering iron by the tip, and soldering a motherboard with no solder. i have guy for you

One of the biggest things missing from Bsky continues to be Polls. I use socials in no small part as a way to aggregate and share information. Polls are *easily* the easiest, lowest friction way of doing that. @jay.bsky.team please please please can that functionality be added?

💥Spack v1.0 is out!💥 This is a huge milestone. We reworked the core to add compiler dependencies, and we're introducing a stable package API. 🚀1.0 also adds concurrent builds, better includes, and much more -- read it all in the release notes! github.com/spack/spack/...

Hey folks! Will be in the Bay Area from ~25 of July to 2nd of August! If we can meet up, we should!!

Remember when defragmenting a hard drive was a thing that was important to do and you paid for software to do it?

Come see us at #PEARC25!

I have been convinced that Go is mostly an unserious language that should never have been allowed to escape the lab.

Glenn Posted his ISC recap, and as always, it's excellent. The exert on Mixed precision and Ozaki did have me giggling whilst reading. I think it's relevant to add some high level context on *why* we vendors decrease FP64; it's not just chasing AI, it's the shear *cost* of FP64. The short ...

We’ve got a request for information out on where we want to take Livermore Computing and other #HPC centers in the next five years. hpc.llnl.gov/fg-hpcc-rfi Check it out and send us your thoughts.

i am going to take @tenstorrent.bsky.social’s beautiful matrix-multiplying machine and make it do bizarre and horrible things

Here's my notes from ISC'25 in Hamburg: blog.glennklockwood.com/2025/06/isc2... #HPC

A nice summary, and a call to action, from the organisers of the PASC'25 Mini-Symposium on Application Perspective on SYCL, a Modern Programming Model for Performance and Portability youtu.be/4K612eNB6cI #APEROL #SYCL

Satoshi said this during his talk, but his explanation felt overly simplistic, and I didn't fully buy it. Felix's description makes more sense to me. This quadratic relationship between precision and floorspace is brutal. #HPC

It is perfectly OK to post Bait for 1-2 of your friends on main, and I will die on this hill

my "sacrifice everything, even your firstborn, for performance" is a bit of a minority opinion

Fun presenting with @fclc.bsky.social at #ISC this week, at the @riscv.org.web.brid.gy BoF and then today at the democratising #AI accelerators for #HPC . #RISCV continues with a workshop Friday afternoon, kicked off with keynote from @riscv.org.web.brid.gy CEO. riscv.epcc.ed.ac.uk/community/work…

It's been a while since I've written about the innards of @compiler-explorer.com. xania.org/202506/how-c... has the details, some statistics and some fun war stories.

FYI TPC25 - the AI for Science event, early bird prices end June 15 tpc25.org

Lots of folks are exasperated with the lead times for Infiniband, the requirements of the libraries for tightly coupled MPI codes etc. in terms of alternatives, have you evaluated other solutions *without* considerations of costs? I heard some folks talking up Ethernet/Slingshot/omnipath, but…

hpc.social does have an events calendar, the issue is primarily people have to add events to it. hpc.social/events/
