Woa? Crazy to see how well they are correlated. Anyone an explanation for that?

Anyone knows how much of that can be attributed to the change to GPUs? 5 years ago some supercomputers had GPUs but not all, now it’s hard to find the CPU-only ones!
How much more efficient have supercomputers become over the last 5 years? Just analysed the top 100 of top500.org : 4x for the most efficient supercomputers in the world, what was top in 2020 is now at the bottom of that Green100 list. Total energy consumption has increased nevertheless

I didn't know the world largest offshore wind farm Dogger Bank is being built off the coast of Yorkshire, 4GW!!! It's huge, so cool

Big oil has always been lying to us.
A new Nature article using GEM data (@globalenergymon.bsky.social) found that the top 250 oil and gas firms own just 2% of the world's renewable power. #renewables 💡🧪

You think ripples in spectral models are weird? Yes, step functions in spectral models are represented with many "weird" oscillations. Sea level will be negative next to big mountains, etc. But that's just the equivalent of representing something smooth with little discrete steps, which arguably 🧵

Is it professionally acceptable to not have MS Word/Powerpoint/Excel etc and ask for other formats? Maybe just me but I find this software exceptionally fragile: A powerpoint presentation created with powerpoint cannot be opened with powerpoint with a hint to open it with powerpoint, wut???

First attempt at writing a sea ice model 🧊🌊 Only uses sea ice concentration not thickness so there is not enough "memory" of thick ice to retain some sea ice cover during summer. Not bad for zero tuning though, I find! Will be in the next release of SpeedyWeather github.com/SpeedyWeathe...

Car drivers criticise cyclists for jumping red lights. If it’s busy or in any way potentially dangerous I 100% agree. But in other situations I also understand cyclists thinking: I don’t kill people, cars do, most road infrastructure (🚦🔄🛑⛔️…) is built to safe people and cars from cars (🤯) so I can go
