Many people ask, "Just what is this Beowulf Bash thing anyway?"
I tell them, "It started with cigars and cognac and became a legend at SC". The story is best told by the invitations (see you there at #SC25)

Excited for this 😊
Say what you will about the hardware or the software, @tenstorrent.bsky.social's Blackhole QuietBox is a gorgeous bit of kit.

Very interesting to me that it will only be a 6 X increase in DGEMM.
Fugaku is famously under provisioned for low precision flops, I must wonder if this is an over correction?

This was super fun! Thanks to @nickbrown-hpc.bsky.social for the invitation and @epcc.bsky.social for hosting a lovely conference!
Was great fun teaching the @tenstorrent.bsky.social tutorial at @ieeexplore.bsky.social #CLUSTER with @fclc.bsky.social this week. And thanks Owain Kenway for finding (and fixing!) the bugs in the practical exercises ;) Great to introduce the architecture to new people!

I’m increasingly convinced by an argument I saw recently that LLMs are effectively power tools (apologies for not remembering the cite!):
- Incredibly useful for experts in a field that are able to correct for their errors
- Really dangerous for layfolk who don’t know what they don’t know
- Incredibly useful for experts in a field that are able to correct for their errors
- Really dangerous for layfolk who don’t know what they don’t know
