Here at the amazing @cern.bsky.social globe of science and innovation in Geneva for Cephalocon 2024. It's the largest Cephalocon yet!

Easily accessible recordings of the BoFs would be a huge win if possible!

If you need something on the expo floor, there is a little Asian food stand near the Papa John's where you can get fried rice and vegetables. They let one of my coworkers just ask for extra fried rice and vegetables instead of meat. Good luck!

Congratulations to Alex Upton from CSCS for winning first place in our #sc24 Super Mario Kart tournament! He beat the next highest time by 4 seconds!

The prize is pretty awesome guys.

I was going to say, for anyone that was around when apt came out, it was like magic technology. Remember this was back before yum existed on the RPM side too. It sure beat managing Slackware (or in my case Yggdrasil!) in the early days!

Pot pie at Gibney's pub:

Ok #sc24 peeps, I'll be at Gibney's pub for dinner and a pint. I'll let you know how it goes.

Everyone must already be at the bars. 🤣

Ok #sc24 and #hpc folks, just landed. What's the consensus on good food options so far?

Any idea if slides will be posted?

I still hope we can make fuse faster. I had high hopes for ZUFS a few years back before NetApp canceled it.

Aaaah, sure. Makes sense!

Interesting. I suppose you could run a VM or whatever if you really needed it. I'm blissfully or (cursedly) stlil running linux on my laptop. I just stay closes to outlets. ;)

What's the ratio of Microsoft employees using Macs? 😼

Flight delayed 2.5 hours. Not a great start #sc24! 😭

If you are a bored #HPC person waiting for the #SC24 expo to start, read up on @clyso.bsky.social's journey to hitting 1TiB/s with Ceph! If you have questions, I'll either be at booth 4509 or running around the expo. Feel free to reach out!

Yikes!

See you soon my #hpc and #sc24 people!

...For Chroma and Magic you mean right? 🫠

Wish I could join you guys, but just an exhibitor this year. Maybe next year!

Hey folks! #SC24 will soon be upon us! Come visit us at booth 4509 to hear about what we are doing with Ceph. @markhpc.bsky.social will also be giving a lightning talk on how the IO500 is improving CephFS. Join us in Room B20 at 12:15PM on Tue, Nov 19th! lnkd.in/gNC77kpz

Don't feel bad, I'm having ChatGPT teach me how to lay out PCIe traces and I don't know enough to be able to correct it. 😂

Did you watch one of my old Morrowind play-throughs?

@walkingrandomly.bsky.social Please feel free to add me too!

Hey, fellow Minnesotan!

Won't be in until tomorrow night, but have fun!

Does 13 years ago count? 😂 The pay is much higher, but so is the stress. No more tea and cookie hour. If working remotely remember to leave your residence at least once a week. You'll miss parts of academia. Don't stay somewhere too long if your soul is dying.
