Today marks the fourth straight day of nonstop “FUN!!!” this week. At least I got to work from home, but yeesh.
In theory, worked on the 240 node cluster all day. In reality, that was interrupted by (a) the guy from that famous place out East, (b) that other guy with a cluster at another big name university, (c) a presentation to Big Pharma number 2 (they bought my stuff on the spot. Go me!) and (d) vicious pummeling on the support lines.
The 240 node cluster people are screwed. It’s sad, but true. We’ll get them to functional, but they were sold the wrong pieces for their $500,000 machine. Bad. Network round trips of over a second sometimes.
Back to it, I suppose. Need to find a break in here sometime to bottle my beer.
