Added a newsletter option for those of you that would prefer a weekly digest. It's at the footer of thedailyflop.com

Fernanda Foertter @hpcprogrammer.bsky.social · 08/09/2026

You can read more about the methodology here. It's still very much a work in progress and still dialing in the sources, what's relevant and what's not, how often to pull info, what other sources are needed and missing. thedailyflop.com/methodology #HPC

Had to cut my #SC25 attendance short thanks to a pothole on the streets of St. Louis breaking my foot. Shout out to Supercomputing conference for making electric chairs available to anyone who needed it. I was able to à participate a day longer because of them. #accessibility

Yes I’ve had this issue. Unfortunately manufacturers dont do a great job at labeling. You can sort of tell (sometimes) by the thickness of the cable if it’s thunderbolt

The singular most useful piece of technology that has improved my life for the better in the last 5 years is the USB-C cable. May the computing gods bless those who worked on this standard.
