Happy Birthday dear @AeonComputing...🎂 We're 10 years old today! Founded Feb 13, 2009 #HPC #Lustre #DoAScience

Home and mini-golf with my daughter. #HPCMatters #FamilyMatters #SC18 #LifeAfterSC

Took my daughter to buy a new bike. She couldn’t decide between the pink or purple bike. I looked closely and told her she needed to choose the purple one just because. #Lustre #GoLustre #HPC thankfully it’s v2 and not v1.8. 😂

@jamesdotcuff @rdwrt Appears different. If true it would seem HPE isn't doing much security regression testing on iLO4.

For all of you running gear with iLO4 mgmt. #HPC twitter.com/marcan42/statu…

How about a new high-performance storage partner? Your current one is costing you and arm and a leg. Why pay minibar prices for your storage? @AeonComputing can help. #CallMe twitter.com/reuters/status…

@thedeadline @hpcprogrammer @HPC_Guru @intel We hatched an idea a few years ago for an SC booth stunt where we served coffee using water heated by copper waterblocks on a series of nVidia cards.

@AeonJeffHPC @hpcprogrammer @HPC_Guru @intel I have always had this idea to create a networked coffee maker that uses a OC'd processor for heat. To make coffee, you run a program called "coffee" that does MD simulating coffee. A geek can dream.

Intel's 28-Core 5GHz Processor And Test System Breaks Cover - however @intel wants to discourage use for #HPC tomshardware.com/news/intel-28-…

Ugh. Grumble. Everything they acquire becomes more burdensome. twitter.com/reuters/status…

I just used @SingularityApp for the first time for an internal project. So slick that I spent an hour debugging thinking there was no way it could be that easy. #hattip to @gmkurtzer

@HPC_Guru @OpenSFS question is....were you there? ;-)

@jamesdotcuff 😂😂😂

I’m in another country performing a #Lustre deployment on OVH (other vendor’s hardware). It’s nice to see what a shitshow other vendor’s gear is. Not naming names, wouldn’t be fair to companies that rhyme with Splenovo.

@glennklockwood Typical...around 8-9W depending on make and size. I was going to go for a Monty Python answer and ask African or European.

How many watts does your typical 7200 RPM SAS drive consume while writing?

@HPC_Guru @AMD @intel Intel poached a very senior architect from AMD.

For the first time in a long time, @AMD is mounting a credible challenge to @intel, and Intel is feeling the heat. This is both in consumer PCs and in the data center, including #HPC. Links to articles in this thread.

Ouch. That’ll leave a mark. twitter.com/hpcwire/status…

@jamesdotcuff @olexandr @HPC_Guru @TheNextPlatform @NicoleHemsoth @TDaytonPM James, you Nicole and I should talk offline. I have an idea for SC and our friend @HPC_Guru 😉

@jamesdotcuff @AeonComputing So the awkward question is....what would you pay to get your Lustre MDT unencrypted? 😳

@jamesdotcuff My thought as well at first. Half way down the thread I felt a chill. I don’t run HPE gear ::cough:: insert shameless plug for @AeonComputing server hardware here ::cough:: but still the encryption/ransom attack done successfully via iLO or IPMI is some next-level scumbaggery.

I know most of us run air-gapped but can you imagine your HPC resources getting this headache? Imagine seeing this on your HA-Lustre MDS nodes. twitter.com/m_shahpasandi/…
