Show Notes

On this week’s podcast, we talk about the Met Office’s newly announced supercomputer. The project is funded by the British government, in partnership with Microsoft, and we delve into what the goals might be and the upshots of a project like this.

We also take a look at some of the world’s most powerful supercomputers. We run down the world’s top 11 most powerful supercomputers; where they are, who made them and what their purpose is.

Finally, we get into things with Steve Szamocki, EVP of Sales & Marketing at Feyen Zylstra. We chat about everything from leadership to what the business landscape will be post-COVID.
