I presume ISO-NE is ISO New England. I know there are probably other areas of the country with more expensive power than us, but I've heard expensive power is why datacenters aren't usually built in NE. An exception would be MGHPCC. www.mghpcc.org

Those were the days of 1200 baud over the air, with latency measured around 8-15 seconds for RTT. The TCP/IP stacks were tuned to not time out due to the longer latency. I once downloaded a 300k pkzip installer in about 3-4 hours. Took a long time but was successful!

My advice would be to leverage the digital experience if a room is crowded, and if you want to meet with someone, schedule it before going to SC if possible. The conference is large so it is challenging to meet up.

Atalian was great

Thanks for posting the schedule!
