The annual Lustre Community Survey is wrapping up. This is your chance to share information about how you use Lustre at your site (whether community or vendor supplied), and to help steer the direction of future Lustre development.

Thanks for attending the Lustre BOF. High performance storage is a small world, and look forward to seeing you again soon.

Andreas Dilger is now working for The Lustre Collective (https://t.co/dVrNzS6WUz) after leaving DDN. Glad to see his leadership continue to drive Lustre into the future. Say what you will about it, Lustre is the standard to which every other #HPC file system is compared.

[Andreas Dilger @lustre_one]

Heading to @Stanford University for the 2025 #Lustre User Group to meet with the users and developers for the filesystem that powers the largest #AI and #HPC systems. Looking forward to seeing everyone there.

@DDNintelligence is a Platinum Sponsor.

Only a few days left to participate in the annual OpenSFS Community Lustre Survey. This is your chance to provide feedback to developers on your site's usage, versions, feature requests to help steer future development.

@echo5juliet These are not mutually exclusive goals. 4.5T in tax cuts will benefit the wealthy that can afford it the most, while only increasing the debt. There could have been fixed to these issues under either president if there was a political will to do so.

[Andreas Dilger @lustre_one]

@echo5juliet Canada doesn't allow advertising both the name and what the drug does in the same ad. I would be OK with banning all drug advertising.

[Andreas Dilger @lustre_one]

@echo5juliet Yeah, not collecting any taxes will do wonders for the country...

@ihsan63 @glennklockwood @insideHPC Probably a good place to start is https://t.co/vX6uHilv98 and where you go from there depends on your interest. Development or storage system administration? The ORNL "Lustre 101" course is currently offline, but I've put in a request to bring it back somewhere.

@echo5juliet I thought prank calling died when call number display became widespread? I suspect lots of people didn't notice their refrigerator leaving the kitchen as a result. 😀

@s_thiell announced at the Lustre BoF that #LUG2025 will be held at @StanfordCompute on April 1-2. Save the date!

@echo5juliet @netflix I suspect that the rest of the content adds minimal load to their servers, since it is already replicated across the globe. The issue is likely only with live events that cannot be pre-staged...

[Andreas Dilger @lustre_one]

@echo5juliet @nytimes I stopped playing this game. Too many random "connections" that you can only figure out after you already know the answer.

@darewecan @omead @DirtyTesLa There may be many factors contributing to this due to a car brand, like age, wealth, education, etc. that can reduce collisions. Older drivers may be less likely to buy a Tesla due to "high tech" user interface, but may be more likely to have accidents, etc.

[Andreas Dilger @lustre_one]

Thanks to the contributors to the IO500 this year, and all those who attended the BOF. There was a great turnout.

[Andreas Dilger @lustre_one]

Thanks JD for the very interesting presentation. I agree it's been great visiting Texas Tech.

[J.D. Maloney @JDMaloney]

Enjoyed giving a site update today for @NCSAatIllinois at LUG 2024, great turnout and Texas Tech has done a great job hosting the conference! #hpc #hpcstorage #lustre

@calgaryherald If they keep beer in the warehouse, they can call it ColdAle. :-)

Heisenberg and Schrödinger get pulled over for speeding.

The cop asks Heisenberg "Do you know how fast you were going?"

Heisenberg replies, "No, but we know exactly where we are!"

The officer looks at him confused and says "you were going 108 miles per hour!"

Heisenberg throws his arms up and cries, "Great! Now we're lost!"

The officer looks over the car and asks Schrödinger if the two men have anything in the trunk.

"A cat," Schrödinger replies.

The cop opens the trunk and yells "Hey! This cat is dead."

Schrödinger angrily replies, "Well he is now."

@KleinCasan24527 @echo5juliet A dozen people at each location do the count, with a vested interest to get it right. Those numbers are published from each station in a district, so they can verify their numbers, and everyone can add them up to get the final result. It is all transparent.
