What blowup factor between code and documentation does your work project have?
(i.e. how many lines of documentation do you generate per line of code?)

@mxk is that factor an integer?

It's official now: I hate and variable frequency.

This is re: https://fediscience.org/@giuseppebilotta/111818775682992930

It might just be that I'm more proficient analyzing and working around quirks (happens, when you do mostly for more than a decade) than , but there's so many weird things happening on this machine that I don't know where to start from.

@giuseppebilotta @rmsilva @jannem to add to this, the drop above 16 threads can be the memory bandwidth saturated, which is typically shared per socket/tile. Bandwidth intense codes may hit that ceiling with fewer cores than available. With perfect load balancing this should flatten the scalability graph but in practice may actually reduce performance.

Spotify needs a "private" mode, for whenever your child gets hold of the phone.

Can anyone recommend good ethical online bookstores that operate in/deliver to Europe? Meaning of course not Amazon, Book Depository etc. Thanks!

@astro_jcm Not sure if it counts as ethical but I liked Thalia (https://www.thalia.de/) when I lived in Erlangen. They have an online store but also physical branches. Still buying my ebooks with them for the Tolino reader.

Interesting report: "An evaluation of risks associated with relying on Fortran for mission critical codes for the next 15 years," Los Alamos National Lab. Finds that it's very likely they will be unable to staff projects with top computer scientists/engineers, and even chance they can get computational scientists…
