> But her managers are not fools, and they immediately sent her home to rest and take care of her loved ones.
Damn, did I tell that I like this part of european work culture? No 996 or overtimes as usual thing, only the attention to the your own employees
Thanks God, I'm working in the same company. One minus – we don't have sabbaticals – but this is because Labor laws in my country completely ignore that people may burn out.
At least we don't have a criminal punishment for being late for work, like it was in USSR since 1940 till 1956…

@wschenk I'm sorry that happened to you.

Your Supercomputer Arrives in the Cloud
For as long as there have been supercomputers, people like us have seen the announcements and said, “Boy! I’d love to get some time on that computer.” But now that most of us have computers and phones that greatly outpace a Cray 2, what are we doing with them? Of course, a supercomputer today is still bigger than your PC by a long shot, and if you actually have a use case for one, [Stephen Wolfram] shows you how you can easily scale up your processing by borrowing resources from the Wolfram Compute Services. It isn’t free, but you pay with Wolfram service credits, which are not terribly expensive, especially compared to buying a supercomputer.
[Stephen] says he has about 200 cores of local processing at his house, and he still sometimes has programs that run overnight. If your program already uses a Wolfram language and uses parallelism — something easy to do with that toolbox — you can simply submit a remote batch job.
What constitutes a supercomputer? You get to pick. You can just offload your local machine using a single-core 8GB virtual machine — still a supercomputer by 1980s standards. Or you get machines with up to 1.5TB of RAM and 192 cores. Not enough for your mad science? No worries, you can map a computation across more than one machine, too.
As an example, [Stephen] shows a simple program that tiles pentagons:
When the number of pentagons gets large, a single line of code sends it off to the cloud:
RemoteBatchSubmit[PentagonTiling[500]]
The basic machine class did the work in six minutes and 30 seconds for a cost of 5.39 credits. He also shows a meatier problem running on a 192-core 384GB machine. That job took less than two hours and cost a little under 11,000 credits (credit cost from just over $4/1000 to $6/1000, depending on how many you buy, so this job cost about $55 to run). If two hours is too much, you can map the same job across many small machines, get the answer in a few minutes, and spend fewer credits in the process.
Supercomputers today are both very different from old supercomputers and yet still somewhat the same. If you really want that time on the Cray you always wanted, you might think about simulation.

If we do not stop to help each other, what will we become?

@quephird huzzah for antiseizure meds and cats!

@jackemled @danirabbit the law of mechanical reproduction also applies here: if you take something apart and put it back together again enough times eventually you will have two of them.
