  1. 20 Jahre LRZ am Forschungszentrum: Im Mai 2006 zogen die Kolleg:innen von #munchen nach Garching. Die schnellste Methode, 1,5 Petabyte an #Daten zu transportieren, war der LKW. Er erreichte eine Transferrate von 7 Terabit/s. Das Rechenzentrum war innovativ: Rechnerräume mit Doppelböden, Computer und für Versorgungstechnik getrennt. 6 Jahre später wieder #baustelle zur Erweiterung und heute stehen Kräne davor, um Platz für die Versorgung der nächsten #Supercomputer zu schaffen.

  2. 🌍 #Zukunftstag in der #Klimaforschung!

    Gestern haben uns 18 Schüler*innen besucht, um am gemeinsamen #Girlsday & #Boysday in die faszinierende Welt der Klimaforschung einzutauchen. Gemeinsam mit dem #DKRZ haben wir vielfältige Einblicke gewährt: beim „Speeddating“ mit unseren Forschenden, am #Supercomputer & Klimaglobus im DKRZ und bei den Messeinrichtungen und im #Windkanal der Uni #Hamburg. #UHH
    🙌 Es war uns ein Vergnügen!

  4. Trump Administration Readies Plans to Dismantle Renowned #NCAR #Science Lab
    Proposals include transferring a #supercomputer to Univ of Wyoming and shifting #spaceweather lab to private company
    Founded in 1960, responsible for many of biggest scientific advances in understanding of #weather & #climate. Its research aircraft and sophisticated computer models of Earth’s atmosphere and oceans are widely used in forecasting weather events and disasters

  5. #NASA Launches Its Most Powerful, Efficient #Supercomputer bringing #Athena Online at #AmesResearchCenter
    Composed of 4 #HPE #Cray #EX4000 racks, with 264,144 cores, 768TB of memory, and a 20.132 Pflop/s theoretical peak! Likely placing it in the top 100 of the #Top500 list.

  6. In Zukunft wird die #TUM die Abwärme des LRZ zum Heizen und Klimatisieren der Räume am Forschungscampus benutzen. Dafür baut die Universität in Garching ein CO2-neutrales Wärmesystem auf, das in 3 Jahren mit #Geothermie sowie mit der Abwärme von #Supercomputer gespeist wird und pro Jahr rund 30.000 CO2 vermeiden hilft. 2022 verbrauchte die TUM am Forschungscampus 127 Gigawatt-Stunden #Erdgas für Wärme. ingenieur.de berichtet über das Projekt: tiny.badw.de/gRDflU

Of course, ASUS wants you to know it has everything, including "support support" because apparently, one layer of help isn't enough for this "tech marvel" 🤖.

  11. #ORNL Director Stephen Streiffer said the #Lux #supercomputer will deliver about 3X the #AI capacity of current supercomputers.

    The second, more advanced computer called #Discovery will be based around AMD's MI430 series of AI chips that are tuned for high-performance #computing. This system will be designed by ORNL, #HewlettPackard & #AMD. Discovery is expected to be delivered in 2028 & be ready for operations in 2029.

  21. #Europe’s #Jupiter #supercomputer hits #exascale threshold at inauguration
    The long-awaited Jupiter system was officially inaugurated on Friday at the Jülich Supercomputing Center near Köln (Cologne) in #Germany, and has surpassed the exascale threshold of one quintillion (10¹⁸) operations per second. It comprises roughly 6000 compute nodes, each featuring four of #Nvidia's #GH200 #GraceHopper superchips, built by #Eviden the compute division of #Atos Group.

  25. Voreilige Menschen kommen bei solchen Meldungen schnell zu der Ansicht, #KI sei Mist. Falsch! Die #Technologie kann nichts für die Skrupellosigkeit von #Kapitalisten.

    Im Süden von #Memphis sorgt der neue #Supercomputer von #ElonMusk​s Firma #xAI für massive #Luftverschmutzung. xAI nutzt dafür ein rechtliches Schlupfloch.

    35 mit #Methan betriebene #Gasturbinen stoßen ungefiltert #Stickoxide aus und belasten die Anwohner, viele berichten von #Asthma und #Krebs.

  26. If you asked Alan Turing (and his chums) to build this (using thermionic valves/tubes) in standard sized cabinets then *the memory alone* would take up floor space equivalent to the area of Spain and it would require 25000 times the total Earth's electrical power generation. I repeat - that is NOT counting the actual 11 million CPU cores.
