All new HPC Club T-Shirt design just landed

Issue #129 of The SC. Weekly supercomputing news. Navier Stokes got solved but what does that mean for you CFD runs. Nvidia racks with third party accelerators? WTF?

Are LLMs to software engineering what digital cameras were to photography?

Issue #121 of The SC. Weekly supercomputing news. TSMC invests in more capacity, Nvidia claim they are on track with NVL144 and is quantum computing starting to cement its position as the next accele...

We now have compute futures, something I’ve been wanting for year. But they suck.

My funniest conversation from HPC Club: HPC is like poker!

Issue #120 of The SC. Weekly supercomputing news. More heterogeneity, more AI accelerators but also, maybe, a way to deal with them all? But should you even bother? Maybe you just pick your poison and...

That’s a wrap on HPC Club with Lawrence Livermore National Lab. Amazing presentation from Vanessa and Dan on Flux Framework, Agentic workflows tied in with their use in financial services.

Issue #118 of The SC – An ISC26 Special with updates not only from the world of supercomputing from last week but also from ISC26

Issue #117 of The SC. ISC26 kicks off in Hamburg. My barber gives me quantum computing stock tips. LLNL picks Cornelis over Nvidia for networking. 80.000 cores in a rack? Yes please. FP64 and PF8 squa...

How do we solve for open source software in an age of AI. I don’t know but I thought I’d share some half baked ideas anyway.

This time last year, social media feeds and even industry headlines were filled with what’s to come at ISC. This year you’d barely even know it’s happening.

Issue #116 of your weekly supercomputing news but freshly rebranded. ISC, ARM CPUs, AMD faces off to Nvida and Weka proves the bottleneck is still not compute.

We’re integrating new benchmarks into FLOPx. What data would you like to see?

Want to come along to HPC Club on 8th July? Better book your spot now

A little bit more detail on what’s coming up in the next HPC Club

I’m running a logo contest on 99designs. Designers have submitted 679 designs so far. Please vote on your favorite as I’d love to receive your feedback.

Mark your calendars, book your babysitter, HPC Club is go for 2026.

We’re looking for someone awesome to come help us shape the future of HMx Labs

Introducing Noteworthy, release notes about HPC and AI that are actually worth your time to read.

Issue #110 of the weekly HPC newsletter by HMx Labs. A new Exascale supercomputer, silicon still running short and yet we still haven’t figured out how to do heterogenous compute.

Does using Kubernetes to run HPC workloads really make sense? I have an opinion that I don’t usually share online for fear of being ridiculed. But yesterday I shared it with a stranger and lived. Plu...

Automating the weekly HPC release notes process which means it can get more comprehensive!

Issue #109 of the weekly HPC newsletter by HMx Labs. Cerberas files for an IPO, Google gives us TPU v8, Meta adopts Graviton, Bolt Graphics tapes out their first GPU and we try and make workloads a ti...

Can LLMs fix numerical stability problems in your code. Let’s design a little experiment to find out and how much would you just like a way to just validate your numerical stability across CPU generat...

FINOS announced the Open Resource Broker yesterday, an adaptive layer to allow HPC schedulers to control cloud capacity designed to work across multiple clouds and schedulers. We’re all on in and are ...

Issue #107 of the weekly HPC newsletter by HMx Labs. Slurm got a bit of attention this week from Nvidia and the analysts but I think the bigger picture here is being missed. AWS gave us another way to...

What benchmarks should we add next to FLOPx?

90% cheaper compute that feels like On Demand VMs but is built on unused spot capacity across multiple providers.

Issue #105 of the weekly HPC newsletter by HMx Labs. ARM makes a CPU, LLM-D goes open source, HPSFCon gives us hours of useful content, we give you a way to save money on cloud VM and vibe coding amus...

A non-update but still an update on HAL, our vibe coded HPC scheduler experiment

Issue #104 of the weekly HPC newsletter by HMx Labs. Updates from HPSFCon and GTC. A new GPU VM from Azure.

Issue #102 of the weekly HPC newsletter by HMx Labs. More details and benchmarks on the HPC8a and H4D VMs. The GPU/Accelerator space looks more crowded and time to check your cloud continuity planning...
