  3. CW: Flashing Lights - Super Computer - Big Clive Style

    I have just put the finishing touches to my BC36 #supercomputer

    Installed the bottom two rows of LED's attached a permanent USB power cable and hot melt glued the hell out of the underside to hold the jumper leads and LED's in position.

  7. I have added another row of lights to my Big Clive #supercomputer #electronics

    Here are a couple of pics. One is the computer in action and the other one is the messy underside that is hidden from the viewer.

  9. 🤯 Behold, the Seiko 1984 wrist-sized "supercomputer" that bravely paved the way for today's tech-loving hipsters who can't tell time without a digital display. Marvel at how this marvel of engineering sits alongside historical fashion disasters, while promising to revolutionize the way we... check the time? 🕰️😂

  11. I am going to build a supercomputer*

    *A big Clive dot com type.

    I have purchased 100 flashing blue LEDs and I am gonna mount them on some spare laminated flooring I have.

    The LED's automatically flash at (around) 1.5hz. I will apply 5 volts via USB with each LED having a current limiting resistor - probably around 220 ohms.

    The final effect relies on the fact the LED's will actually all flash at a slightly different rate due to manufacturing tolerance.

  13. Für eine Simulation eines G-Protein-gekoppelten Rezeptors (GPCR) arbeiteten das UCL London, die TUM, das LRZ mit IQM, QMatter und NVIDIA zusammen. Dafür wurde #HPC mit #Quantencomputing verbunden. Der #Quantencomputer rechnete den chemischen Teil, den Rest erledigt der #Supercomputer. Das Ergebnis sind Erkenntnisse zum Zusammenspiel von Proteinen und Molekülen. Zum anderen entstand aus Software und Algorithmen ein quanten-klassischer Workload: lrz.de/news/detail/bessere-pro

  16. PrismML unleashes Bonsai 27B, the magical 1-bit wonder that can supposedly run on your phone... because who needs battery life anyway, right? 🚀📱 With claims as inflated as a soufflé, they're here to prove that yes, you too can have a pocket-sized #supercomputer. Just don't expect it to do much... besides draining power faster than a toddler with a flashlight. 🔋💥

  19. #China’s #LineShine #supercomputer, installed at NSC Shenzhen, is the world’s fastest, achieving 2.2 exaflops on the HPL test. It uses the LX2 CPU, designed by NSC Shenzhen and Huawei, featuring 304 active cores per socket and a proprietary interconnect. The system’s architecture prioritises performance per watt, utilising slower clock speeds and a combination of HBM and LPDDR5X memory. nextplatform.com/hpc/2026/06/2 #tech #media #news

  21. Könnte ja sein, dass die ISC26 in Hamburg Lust gemacht hat auf einen Job mit Supercomputern: Das LRZ sucht HPC-Spezialistinnen für die Administration seiner #Supercomputer auch in Verbindung mit #quanten und #KI -Systemen.

    Forschende mit ersten Einblicken ins Management von Projekten können ihre Erfahrungen als Assistenz am LRZ vertiefen.

    Und sowieso suchen wir immer studentische Hilfskräfte für den Servicedesk und andere Aufgaben.

  22. China's LineShine Supercomputer: A Sense of Scale ⚡🖥️

    China's LineShine 灵晟 supercomputer is the most powerful supercomputer in the world 🌍, delivering a verified 2.198 exaFLOPS on the TOP500 benchmark. That means it can perform more than 2 quintillion (2×10¹⁸) calculations every second 🚀. The system consumes 42.2 megawatts of electricity ⚡ and is powered by more than 13.7 million conventional CPU cores 🧠.

    The Scale of Its Computing Power 📊

    Compared to Humanity 👥: If every person on Earth performed one mathematical calculation every second, without stopping ⏱️, it would take the entire global population about 4 years 📅 to equal the amount of computation LineShine completes in a single second.

    Consumer Hardware 💻: Matching LineShine's sustained performance would require more than 20 million of today's fastest consumer graphics cards 🖥️, such as an RTX 5090, working together in perfect synchronization 🔗.

    LineShine demonstrates the extraordinary scale of modern high-performance computing (HPC), enabling scientific calculations that would be practically impossible using conventional computers 🚀.

  24. A Deep Dive On #China’s “#LineShine” All-#CPU, #Exaflops-Class #Supercomputer
    LineShine is based on an Armv9.2 CPU core that has SVE2 vector units and the relatively new SME matrix math units as well as integer processing units. #LingKun #LX2 CPU has 304 cores/socket. LineShine machine has a proprietary #LingQi #LQLink interconnect which I am reasonably sure is based on a variation of InfiniBand technology but it could be a jacked-up and stripped-down version of Ethernet.

  35. Chinas neuer Supercomputer LineShine erreicht die Spitze der Top500-Liste und schlägt die USA. Das Besondere: Das System kommt komplett ohne spezialisierte KI-Chips aus. #Supercomputer #Technologie winfuture.de/news,159540.html?

  36. Surprise! #China's #LineShine Takes Number 1 on #TOP500
    The #supercomputer in Shenzhen was declared the world’s fastest. It uses only standard microprocessors (#CPU) and not the special-purpose chips called graphics processing units. These chips are an original design based on a set of instructions licensed by #Arm Holdings. The Shenzhen scientists have also sought recognition for the new machine through 14 submissions for the #GordonBellPrize.

  37. IT Bros und führende Ingenieure hierzulande (wie ich sie schon so oft auf Sommerfesten und Firmenabenden labern hören habe):

    »Die Chinesen [Subtext: dieses niedere Buschvolk], die haben von nichts Ahnung, außer nachmachen. Sie verstehen aber nichts davon, was sie nachmachen [Subtext: von uns Westliche-Welt-Herrenmenschen], daher müssen wir uns keine Sorgen machen. Die hängen uns 20 Jahre hinterher, und das wird sich auch nie ändern, weil die quasi intellektuell eine IQ-Sperre eingebaut haben. So ist das!«

    Ich übertreibe nicht, das bekommt man von durchaus fähig erscheinenden Leuten zu hören, die auch direkt mit chinesischen Kontraktoren zu tun haben. Ja, ja!

    Die Chinesen derweil so: Hold my Yanjing!
    Zitat:

    »Erstmals reicht die Volksrepublik China wieder ein Ergebnis für die Liste der schnellsten Supercomputer ein. Lineshine belegt mit Abstand Platz 1.«

    Well played #China. Gute Nacht dann.
