Widescreen Wonder: #LasVegasSphere
54,000 m2 (~3.67 acre) interior LED display (16x16K) and an exterior LED display (‘Exosphere’) consisting out of 1.23 million LED ‘pucks’. Driving all these pixels are around 150 #NVidia RTX #A6000 #GPU, installed in computer systems which are networked using NVidia #BlueField data processing units (#DPU) and NVidia #ConnectX6 NICs (up to 400 Gb/s), with visual content transferred from Sphere Studios in Cali. All this hardware uses 45kW.

Since then I’ve done a bunch of #sysadmin work (mostly #Solaris) followed by OS (#solaris #illumos #smartos #zfs) development and more recently various storage stuff (#nvme #nvmeof #roce #spdk #bluefield #dpu #smb).
I love #hiking through the #wilderness and other natural areas.
