Thank you.

Can you please add me? Thanks.

Throw on this the fact that some applications are license restricted, and again we don’t want a single user to take all the licenses.
All this means that simple metrics like wait times are useless. And you want to find the right mix of utilization and availability.

And then you have the power users that submit jobs with thousands of cores, and sometimes a lot of those. So they don’t expect all of those jobs to finish at once. Then you add to this that you have limits on users to make sure a single user on Sunday evening can’t take over the system for the week.

This is one of those things I struggle with a lot. Considering that we have a large user base with vastly different demands finding good metrics is so hard. Some users only need a few cores for an hour, others submit thousands of small jobs and don’t expect them to come back all at once.

A short Q&A about my job posted by SIAM:

Yeah, it’s funny when you talk to cloud providers about doing HPC and they are asking for forecasts. Why do you need a forecast when cloud is supposed to be unlimited?

In industry it is hard to find the funding to port to different architectures all the time.

Sounds like an interesting job.

Hey Bluesky world - the Princeton RSE group is hiring! We're recruiting a Research Software Engineer to build software for novel, AI-driven, hydrology research.

That is so ridiculous. Sorry that you have to deal with that. I thought our industry was better than this.

That is so true, especially for the national labs. We always looked at them to bring in the experimental stuff, and then a year later when a lot of the bugs and weird behavior was worked out we would get the smaller versions of those systems.

Some interesting jobs in #hpc.

A mastodon post from Alan Sill saying: If anyone in our #HPC circle of friends at #SC24 can spare a few items to help us out with a missed shipment, we'd appreciate a short-term loan of the following materials for at least a few days until we can get our shipment there: - AC power strips (preferably with long cords) - A couple of small computers to drive displays - Ethernet cables (at least 20' long) - A small network switch Again, look for a spare-looking metal frame with some forlorn Texas Tech people at booth 814.

Call for help #HPC/ #SC / #SC24 :

One of the crates for the TexasTech booth never made it to Atlanta; they’re in need of:

- AC power strips (preferably with long cords)
- A couple of small computers to drive displays
- Ethernet cables (at least 20' long)
- A small network switch

Booth 814

Yeah, hopefully next year I will be able to go.

Yeah, it’s weird not going this year.

Thank you.

Please add me as well. Thanks.

It’s weird not to be getting ready to go to Supercomputing this year. Everyone who is going have fun! #hpc #sc24

I would expect Azure again.

OK, let's try this to show the HPC community already has momentum and can thrive here on Bluesky ...
