Lots of folks are exasperated with the lead times for Infiniband, the requirements of the libraries for tightly coupled MPI codes etc. in terms of alternatives, have you evaluated other solutions without considerations of costs? I heard some folks talking up Ethernet/Slingshot/omnipath, but…

Ha, amazing! I better start contributing then.

This is a great paper for system designers that explains many of the key workload characteristics of large model training through the lens of system architecture. Tho written by DeepSeek, most insights apply more broadly. #AI

I have completed all nine of my SC25 paper reviews a full week early! To celebrate, I jotted down my thoughts on the peer review process (www.glennklockwood.com/garden/peer-...). I am curious how others approach this; it's not something widely discussed.

Had the great pleasure tonight of being with Brown CS professor Tom Doeppner, who is retiring after an extraordinary 49 years of teaching. Tom -- and his legendary OS course, CS169 -- inspired multiple generations of practitioners. Thank you, Tom!

Modern world is so cool, but so easy to take for granted. About to be over the north pole, was slightly concerned about the wifi dead zone above the pole. Caught myself realizing "I'm 10 KM in the air, crossing over the point of rotation of the planet, and I'm worried about my network access?"

The most underutilized #AVX512 instruction, VPSHUFBITQMB, is actually very useful for compactly generating a mask with arbitrary criteria based on b[5:0], e.g. to select special characters for parsing: if the second operand is a broadcasted 64-bit vector, where the ones represent the searched values

I'm writing an article about perf optimization and I wanna try to get some good branch prediction data. I've never tried to use this type of tool so im not sure where to look @geofflangdale.bsky.social tell me about x86_64-unknown-linux profiling using perf counters. where should I be looking?

I have two books here, on high dimensional statistics and high dimensional probability. I am specifically looking for a book that treats intuition around high-dimensional geometry, as I have a lot of high-dimensional polytopes to reason about. Can anyone recommend anything?

Rio Yokota from Tokyo Tech talks about scaling laws for #HPC, #AI training, inference, and spending 💸. We're in the exponential scaling part of a logistic curve - when will we hit the bottom? Nice discussion and analogies between the fields 🤔.

Faculty: please take note of this environment and review your department's reappointment and tenure guidelines. How will you support faculty who will be up for review without meeting historical funding norms? Revising those guidelines and recalibrating committee norms takes time so be proactive.
