Just in case anyone is concerned: if you’re interviewing with our facility, bring whatever beverage you like. If you’re lacking hydration, let us know and we’ll swing by the water fountains or the vending machines or the campus Starbucks. We want you to flourish, not fret about trivialities.

Every kid deserves a peaceful home where they can thrive. My brother has been working hard to build a loving, safe home for his two kids, but the financial burden of rescuing his children from the violence and substance abuse perpetrated by their mother still weighs heavily on his family.

Illinois respects the sovereignty and borders of Ukraine — now and always.
 Three years ago, Russia invaded Ukraine without warning or provocation. Peace and freedom requires resistance to tyranny and oppression. 
 Slava Ukraini!

Sometimes, you just have to walk over to your supercomputer and rip a power cord out to remind it who’s the boss. Take that, switch x6101c0r47b0! You will forward packets, and that’s an order!

In 5th grade, I told a kid who insulted me to “shut your big ugly mouth!” My teacher somehow heard “… big fucking mouth!” I was immediately suspended from school for a day and banned from performing in the choral show that week.

I had an emergency appendectomy 24 years ago, after it burst suddenly one night, with no symptoms or warning signs, my Freshman year of college: and it *did* bankrupt me. It nearly prevented me from continuing through school after my Freshman year of undergrad.

I kinda hate living in a time and place where I receive Black Friday Sale emails advertising deep discounts on routine and necessary basic medical testing, because a huge portion of the population may need those in order to survive.

I'm launching the hashtag #HPCTales to share ridiculous articles about #HPC. I'm starting with news from a French defense (!!) website that headlines: "The 2nd most powerful supercomputer in the world (Frontier) is now able to create its own Matrix-like universe thanks to Exascale" 🤦

The first known use of singular “they” is so old that not only does it pre-date singular “you,” it wasn’t even spelled with a “th” When William and the Werewolf, in 1375 CE, used singular “they,” it was spelled with a Thorn

I would like to speak up today for the trans community. You see, I know a bit of what it’s like to be politically scapegoated. When Japan attacked Pearl Harbor in 1941, suddenly anyone in America who had any amount of Japanese ancestry became suspect. Politicians preyed upon ignorance and fear. /1

Unpacked some new transceivers this afternoon. That’s 6.4Tbps one-handed!
Four clear plastic cases containing four silver metal optical network transceivers with green pull-tab handles in each plastic case, totaling 16 transceivers. These are QSFP56-DD transceivers for 400Gbps Ethernet.

Visualization of why I won’t be at SC24 (or many other conferences across a majority of states in the country), as rendered by erininthemorning.com - I expect the “light blue-grey” states will turn blood red when newly elected officials are sworn in come January as well. 15 states left for us.

LRP: I watched BigBoy roll through our town from trackside in 2019. We have a triple UP track here and multiple freight and Metra diesel-electric consists of similar size passed while we waited. One thing that stood out to me was how much quieter the steam engine was than all the diesel-electrics!
