Last year I raised the idea of Open Source Quality Institute: https://www.tbray.org/ongoing/When/202x/2024/04/01/OSQI
Today, I’m wondering if anyone has tried to launch an Open-Source-Maintainer guild or union or whatever? It could set rates and draft contracts…

If you are planning anything in Denmark that is more long term than about 5 years, then you should definitely be using the Climate Atlas to check your climate adaptation impacts...

It has generally been reported that no significant irregularities was seen during the 2024 presendential election, but not everyone agrees to that.
I wonder if there is any substance to the statistical analysis provided by https://electiontruthalliance.org/2024-us-election-analysis/…

Phase transition properties via partition function zeros: The Blume-Capel ferromagnet revisited
Since the landmark work of Lee and Yang, locating the zeros of the partition function in the complex magnetic-field plane has become a powerful method for studying phase transitions. Fisher later extended this approach to complex temperatures, and subsequent generalizations introduced other control parameters, such as the crystal field. In previous works [Moueddene et al, J. Stat. Mech. (2024) 023206; Phys. Rev. E 110, 064144 (2024)] we applied this framework to the two- and three-dimensional B…

Svalbard lost 1% of its ice in the summer of 2024, more than any year on record #Svalbard

Svalbard lost 1% of its ice in the summer of 2024, more than any year on record
Svalbard, an Arctic archipelago that is technically a part of Norway, lies about halfway between the northernmost part of Norway and the North Pole. Currently, about 60% of Svalbard's surface is covered in glaciers, but these glaciers are melting rapidly. During the summer of 2024, Svalbard experienced a record-breaking heat wave that melted more of its glaciers than ever before.

Institutional Research Computing Capabilities in Australia: 2024
Institutional research computing infrastructure plays a vital role in Australia's research ecosystem, complementing and extending national facilities. This paper analyses research computing capabilities across Australian universities and organisations, showing how institutional systems support research excellence through local compute resources, specialised hardware, and cluster solutions. Our study finds that nearly 112,258 CPU cores and 2,241 GPUs serve over 6,000 researchers as essential bri…

GPU Programming for AI Workflow Development on AWS SageMaker: An Instructional Approach
We present the design, implementation, and comprehensive evaluation of a specialized course on GPU architecture, GPU programming, and how these are used for developing AI agents. This course is offered to undergraduate and graduate students during Fall 2024 and Spring 2025. The course began with foundational concepts in GPU/CPU hardware and parallel computing and progressed to develop RAG and optimizing them using GPUs. Students gained experience provisioning and configuring cloud-based GPU ins…
