A nice survey...

Performant computing...

You may want to use FP. (Unrealistic?)

You may want to care about memory bandwidth. (Only at purchasing time...)

You may want to understand memory. (Good paper. Linux/Intel specific. Would be nice to see a little more on AMD/NUMA systems...)

Scientists' interpretive dance...

I'm back in Chicago now.

How much does it suck to be a single middle-aged woman?

A lot. Should've settled for that guy that was just a little too immature.

On management

Zoos ain't easy.

Safe Haven

This is exactly how I feel about my 79 cutlass. Which is still for sale, by the way.

A misogynistic workplace is bad for male employees too

To quote a friend...

My brother is married.

The family is a haven in a heartless world

I saw my brother's new house this weekend. Quite nice! They closed on it the Friday before Labor Day but are still working on the painting and, this weekend, replacing doors. I hadn't seen it before this Saturday. There's a nicely sized backyard which abuts a wooded creek bed area. There's a fairly large unfinished area under the house. There's three rooms, one of which will be a study, and two which will be bedrooms. And there's one bathroom, a living area, the kitchen and a two car garage. Very cool.

The wedding's only 3 weeks away!
