Texas talked about joining the newly-established SCC Teraflop Club with their 1.07 LINPACK result and also discussed their strategy in approaching the task of cracking 4,000,000 passwords.
With FAMU, we talked with a very tired team member about their roller coaster journey at the show: how their hardware didn’t show up as planned, and how they managed to finish the competition on borrowed equipment.
With Stony Brook, we touched on light bedtime reading and the pros and cons of using DoD Military Grade caffeine during the competition.
Rounding out the night was a visit to the NTHU team, where I marveled at the durability of the school seal tattoo they had put on my hand a few days earlier.
