oh this one was just talking about Nvidia and Slurm in the context of FOSS and AI coding but i've posted a fair bit about using AI assisted coding in HPC in other posts before too.

I mean .. i know like EDM I'll probably get told by some that's not real music either anyway so liking AI generated music was bound to happen... but still!

also in my defence i do also listen to classical (especially like some of the neo classical like Einaudi) and a bunch of other stuff too.

i think i might have been sneakily #aimusic pilled by spotify.

you know how it keeps playing random stuff after you playlist ends... well it ended up playing some fusion viking/ EDM/ hip hop stuff. I quite liked it!!

all the artwork is def AI though... and I'm now wondering if the music is too?

Maybe there are some very angry calls from the hyperscalers going to ARM in private.

Agree that RISC-V seems unlikely. Too soon.

Seems odd no one else has queried/ complained about that so far.

Hiring: Growth & Relationships Coordinator We’re looking to hire someone to help us get our house in order in terms of managing our client and partner relationships and our sales and marketing functions.

Something slightly different this time. We’re hiring in #HPC but this isn’t a technical role this time

Know anyone that might fit the bill?

No. So long as you can explain how you set those proportions and why.

Ingredients of a Benchmark How would you go about creating a single representative benchmark for all your different workloads. This isn’t a rhetorical question where I give you the answer at the end. I’m genuinely asking!

ok let's see if bsky #HPC can live up to its name.... how do you create a representative benchmark?

that's a pretty cool map

Interesting that its noisy. what are the primary sources of noise in this?

Founder’s Dilemma What do you do when your job outgrows your own capabilities?
