We were busy at ISC'26 in Hamburg, check out the blog post on EESSI-related activities there: eessi.io/docs/blog/20... #HPC

Last week, the EPI consortium held the final review of EPI SGA2 in Luxembourg The review included live demonstrations of the first Rhea1 silicon running a complete HPC software stack and five demos showcasing EPAC and RISC-V accelerator technologies on real hardware. 📸Photos from the demonstrations👇

Not a bad way to start the summer: saw Papa Roach, Linkin Park, Queens of the Stone Age, *and* the legendary System of a Down live, in two different venues/countries, just 5 days apart. Thank you past me for making this happen! #BeKindToYourFutureSelf

Spending the day in Paris today, with one clear goal… #SOAD

And there’s more… Some things are just too heavy and/or large to pack and haul with you on the train, so you need to get it shipped straight to Hamburg. Come join our tutorial at #ISC26 on Monday afternoon, and our Birds-of-a-Feather session on Thursday morning! #HPC

The open-source Chapel programming language project is seeking new sources of funding—or other creative ways of sustaining the project—in order to keep the technology going. For details, please see our announcement on the Chapel blog: chapel-lang.org/blog/posts/c...

This is a great talk! Even though I haven't programmed in Chapel myself at all, not have I done any in-depth hard-code parallel programming either, I've always wondered by we haven't seen broader adoption of it, since it has a whole bunch of interesting features... #HPC

This is one of my favorite talks from the past few years. If you've got 15 minutes to watch it, I'd be curious for your thoughts and reactions.

I got a guided tour of the ECMWF datacenter last Thursday by Martin Palkovic, Director of Computing, while I was in Bologna for an EasyBuild+EESSI+Spack tutorial/hackathon. Most interesting datacenter I've ever visited, featuring over 1 *exabyte* of tape storage, ... www.youtube.com/watch?v=iXC5...

Day 1 of the joint EasyBuild / EESSI / Spack tutorial at CINECA, co-organized with the MaX EuroHPC Centre-of-Exellence, starts with an introduction to all 3 projects, followed by an introduction to the EuroHPC Federation Platform. @easybuild.bsky.social @eessi.bsky.social @spackpm.bsky.social

Yeah, so, this. Again, today. #DirtyFrag #sigh
