Fun to watch NASCAR from above (my first). Though they keep wiping out taking a left off Columbus onto Balbo and I have to say I’ve taken that turn countless times without any issues. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

A new article from @ChicagoMag details the efforts to build @argonne's Aurora #exascale supercomputer and how it will help drive advances in science and technology. https://t.co/0nHG3y0v4P

Very sad to lose Jeff Beck - one of the greatest guitar players and a musical pioneer.

Was great to join @SecGranholm, @SenatorDurbin, @RepBobbyRush & WH officials at @Argonne to highlight funding for our national labs featured in the #InflationReductionAct. These investments will accelerate scientific discovery to help us build a cleaner, stronger economy!

If you paid a fortune at the pump this weekend, we recently voted to crack down on gas price gouging and every single republican voted no.

I posted "The History of the Grid" on Arxiv. This 2011 article reviews the work that, from the 1990s onwards, pioneered on-demand and federated computing and data over then-new high-speed networks. https://t.co/XTpWnpmWkH

Congratulations to Jack Dongarra for well-deserved Turing Award. His use of mathematics, in particular linear algebra, as a language for programming increasingly complex computer architectures has lasted 30+ years and enabled scaling by billions.

Excellent quick summary of increasing powerful computational capabilities for climate modeling!
Underpinning the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC)'s 6th Assessment report are climate models run on huge parallel computers. Today, those computers are close to exascale; 25 years ago, they ran around one billion times more slowly 1/5 https://t.co/Q6ILsXvdkT

Cancelled my @yourKarma account after eight years. Two experiences where they demonstrated that their company name is just a gimmick. No integrity.

Wastewater’s gone mainstream. Epidemiologists and public health officials are using Chicago’s labyrinth of century-old sewer lines to track and even predict COVID-19 pandemic trends.
