Hello! I'm Kae, neurodivergent trans woman, enjoyer of HPC, lover of TTRPGs and games in general, and a member of Developer Relations @VoltronData! Until I have a website, this is where I'll be cataloguing my adventures with C++, Apache Arrow, and whatever catches my interest!

[Naty Clementi @ncclementi]

After 1 year at Voltron Data, I found myself along with my teammates and 50+ people in need of a job

I have plenty experience building OSS Python data tools, presenting at conferences and OS community management.

If you think I'd be a good fit for a job please let me know

[Ktisis Lockheart @kae_suarez]

Reading https://t.co/RgND1gdiGZ and absolutely delighted by it. It has everything I could want -- examples with reasoning, a full reference guide for all methods in the book, and a web version that expands with time/outside of print constraints.

You know a field is taking off when you regularly see multiple order of magnitude improvements in performance. Thats whats happening in deep learning for molecular simulation. This field is going to be transformed. Latest example: 1/n

[Ktisis Lockheart @kae_suarez]

Surprisingly fun to learn from textbooks after academia. I'm being reminded *why* I like code so much.

I don't have any insider info - 👇my guess to the 4 questions by @agamsh

1. No

2. Hope so - it's their last chance before #ElCapitan

3. Yes

4. No, but it needs to use another metric besides HPL. #AI systems need something better than # of H100s!

[Ktisis Lockheart @kae_suarez]

This is a really exciting day, because I love talking about things, and now I can! Theseus ties back so well to my HPC background with its accelerator-native nature!

In other words, I'm at GPUs again, but this time for data analytics!

Buildup to #SC is always exciting! Had to pick up some new clothes, though, my wardrobe is desert-oriented.

I don't think Denver will be kind on that front.

[Voltron Data @VoltronData]

In the NEW #ComposableCodex chapter we make one thing clear: Don't move your data. No really, don’t do it. Learn how composable connectivity standards for data format, access & transport help systems rise above the data sprawl. #ComposableDataSystems

https://t.co/KvUkoTcsBD

[Voltron Data @VoltronData]

What’s your love language? Ours is #ComposableDataSystems powered by #OpenStandards. This is clear in the NEW #ComposableCodex chapter: Bridging Language Divides – out now!

If you work in #Python #Rstats #SQL or any other language, give it a read! 🕊️ https://t.co/3vPfhPPovP

[Voltron Data @VoltronData]

New #ComposableCodex Chapter is OUT now! #OpenStandards for data memory layout, connectivity & query plans take center stage (cc: @ApacheArrow @substrait_io). Check out 01: Standards Over Silos & learn the fundamentals for #ComposableDataSystems. https://t.co/S50PyCG0YL

Want to leverage #GPUs and optimize workflows for #analytics and/or #MachineLearning? We set out to see if we could achieve both throughput AND high compression ratio without compromising one or the other..…and we did. Read this post to learn how!
