"Programming SCI Clusters Using Parallel CORBA Objects"
That's the title of one of the papers in the book "SCI: Scalable Coherent Interface" and pretty much everything in this title is vintage. #vintagecomputing #hpc

I never imagined getting used to a new #HPC infrastructure would be such a pain.
I got used to cli, ssh access, bash scrips before, but suddenly everything is handled via a GUI, everything is containerized.
AND ALL MY WORKFLOWS ARE BROKEN!
I don't even manage to set up a simple #conda environment.

I refuse to read OOM errors as anything else but "Out of Mana".
Computers are magic, so it makes perfect sense they have a limited Mana pool.
Yes, I'm trouble shooting on the #HPC , why are you asking?

I was yesterday's years old when I learned that applying for and accessing #HPC infrastructure directly via the #EU ( #EuroHPC_JU ) is, at least on paper, much easier than going via the national resources in #Denmark.
It's great, but figuring that out earlier could have saved me easily 3 months of writing emails and waiting.
