Quantum #38

Issue #38 of the weekly HPC newsletter by HMx Labs.

And relax. SC24 and the rush of news from that is over. AWS seem to have gotten all their important releases out the door in preparation for re:Invent so it’s a pretty quiet week in terms of news updates in the world of HPC.

We, on the other hand, have been pretty busy! Not only have we grown the team this past week (see below) but we’re still looking to add another engineer. So if this sounds like you

Not Dennis Ritchie but know malloc isn’t a type of duck
Not Bjarne Stroustrup but know that Boost isn’t just Cadbury’s chocolate bar.
Not James Gosling but Java isn’t just coffee
Not Vint Cerf but you understand why 10.1.1.1 is not a publicly routable address.
Not Jennifer Petoff but you understand resilience isn’t just having a spare laptop
Not Morris Jette but you know scheduling isn’t just about organising lunch.
Not a quant but know that a conversation about the Greeks with one isn’t about the Netflix show ‘KAOS’

You get the idea. Fit the mould? Want to shape the future of HPC? Give me a shout.
