#hpc — Public Fediverse posts

For the past year, BayernKI – the Bavarian AI infrastructure for science – has been available for use in research at the LRZ and NHR@FAU.

We asked computer scientist Gerhard Wellein, a professor at @FAU and Dr Nicolay Hammer, head of the Big Data & AI team at the LRZ, about the adoption of BayernKI and plans for the future.

You can read the full interview on our website: https://www.lrz.de/en/news/detail/one-year-of-bayernki

I can confirm the Nvidia CMP 170HX GPU exploit works on Gentoo (the leaked version was leaked too early, now the official exploit is stable). I have a fully-unlocked mining GPU with 64 GiB of RAM and 12 TFLOPS FP32. 📈 🚀 #hpc #gpu #nvidia

Everything (almost 😁) you need to know to effectively plan, buy & manage #HPC/#AI infra services. Plus networking with peers doing the same.

That would be > 500 k via #PyPI and > 100 k via #Conda (got the number with `condastats`)

That, of course, includes all downloads over all versions and including CI usage.

However, there are ~5,000 downloads per relevant version update for Conda alone. This fills me with pride and gives some ammunition for the "for admins" part of my #Snakemake #HPC tutorial. 😉

#SLURM

Whenever I learn about a new statistical method:

Do I know what I'm doing?
- Highly debatable

Do I hope for the best?
- 100%

It's not helping that I need to run things on an #HPC, so my failing forward is hogging resources.

I sincerely hope #Reviewer2 is not reading my toots, but at least the results look plausible.

I see why programmers get a shot of dopamine after reducing overall LoC. I just shaved off ~200 lines of code by reducing redundant calls in an epilog script.

🧪 Almost 20 years ago, I realized I didn’t just want to build supercomputers. I wanted to use them to solve problems that mattered. Great to talk with TheScientist about that journey and our work using HARVEY to build vascular digital twins. www.the-scientist.com/digital-twin...

Free for participants from European countries: Multi-GPU Programming Bootcamp. 29 to 30 Sept 2026, online.

Scale #CUDA and #MPI codes to multiple #GPUs and nodes, use #Nsight Systems, #NCCL and #NVSHMEM, with hands-on access to an A100 cluster.

#HPC

General #HPC people question: what is your site policy for users on using coding agents on the cluster via VSCode or similar?

"It's their stuff, they can do whatever."? "Begone, foul shades!"? Something in between?

Today I was knee-deep in #Python dependency hell.

At some point I used my browser to access the #HPC, to emulate #KDE, to launch another browser with #Jupyter.

It still did not work.
Current solution is to try making a minimal bundle and run on #GoogleCollab.

Luckily it's only a tiny piece of the pipeline, that has to run interactively.

I can't wait to get back to my lovely #rstats

Everything is GREAT, now we just need a customer!

BitCoin miner "BitFarms" completes data center transitions to now take on AI and HPC (high performance computing) workloads.

The data center developer currently has no operating bitcoin business in the United States and no signed AI tenant - but is sitting on ~$819M of total liquidity. https://unchainedcrypto.com/keel-completes-shutdown-of-all-u-s-bitcoin-mining-as-revenue-halves-and-operating-loss-hits-141-million/ #BitCoin #Crypto #BitCoinMiner #BitFarms #Keel #DataCenters #AI #AIDataCenters #HPC #BlockChain

There we go. Another rack anointed in blood. May Khorne be appeased.

Guess I'm literally giving my blood for this job that isn't even mine anymore (well, soon)

So günstig kann #Schnellladen DIREKT AN DER #AUTOBAHN sein – trotzdem fehlt etwas!

Kann Schnellladen wirklich schon ab 25 Cent pro kWh funktionieren?
Der Vispiron Ladepark in Schäftlarn zeigt, dass intelligente Ideen den Preis beim Laden von Elektroautos deutlich senken können. Das Konzept "Preis nach Sonnenstand" wurde weiterentwickelt: mehr #HPC-Ladepunkte, eine deutlich bessere Lage direkt an der Autobahn und jetzt sogar Stellplätze für Fahrzeuge...

I’m not telling you, I’m asking you (yes, you)!

1. What do you predict will be the biggest single #HPC or #supercomputing story at #SC26?

2. What will be the main theme or buzzword of the overall week?

Join us in Vienna for IWOMP 2026!

Join us October 7–9, 2026 for the 22nd annual IWOMP event in Austria. IWOMP is the annual workshop dedicated to the advancement of all aspects of parallel programming with OpenMP. It is the premier forum to present issues, trends, recent research ideas, and results related to parallel programming.

August 14th is the last day with the early-bird pricing -- full pricing starts on August 15
