You can buy an 8 GPU node for the cost of renting on AWS for about 2 months. It’s amazing to me how many companies and labs get sucked into the expensive trap of cloud compute.

Congratulations to @SIGHPC Treasurer @ItsHarveyTime on her "Becoming Everything You Are" award from @MITREcorp. She's definitely led the way with @StudentsSC, and is a great mentor and supporter of diversity in the HPC community.

It was 1951 and this is Theseus by the amazing Claude Shannon of @BellLabs.
It is a maze-solving mouse with 99 relays for its brain—mouse of X-Y motors & reed switches.
It is the antecedent to all machine learning and AI we have—today.
Astonishing...

I am so impressed (and grateful) for Karikó's doggedness in pursuing mRNA technology, despite being repeatedly shit on by UPenn for doing something outside of the mainstream. I can't imagine I would have stuck with it in her shoes.

A future where air taxis traverse our skies is taking shape today. We're working with the @FAANews and the aviation industry to explore approaches for integrating Urban Air Mobility operations safely and efficiently into the National Airspace System. bit.ly/3aSri7x
