Black Friday reminder: one of the most important things you can do to help our planet is not to buy things you don't need. And "eco-friendly" things are still things. So don't be sucked in by "offers" and "deals" unless you already needed that thing. Please.

Earlier in 2021, tech leaders including @truepic, @adobe, @microsoft, @intel, & @Arm announced the formation of the C2PA—an open standards body that aims to create a common format for infusing provenance data into content. Today the C2PA released a draft spec for public comment.

We’re unveiling the initial tech specs for @Arm Confidential Compute Architecture (Arm CCA) - a key feature of Armv9-A. We're making the benefits of confidential computing accessible to all developers - protecting data & code wherever compute happens. bit.ly/3qkRxcn

From an internal discussion, apparently derived from Peter Drucker: "Leaders focus on doing the right thing, managers focus on doing things right" That is going to stick with me.

I am concerned that a lot of computer systems research is solving problems that only huge tech companies have (eg. fast datacenter networking, big data analytics systems), rather than working on technologies that empower individual users and the underprivileged.
By the same token, it should be a sobering moment for computer science academia. With few exceptions, work that tries to bring accountability to big tech companies is relegated to the fringes of our discipline. CS these days cozies up to power far more than speaking truth to it.

We just announced the Fugaku config at a press briefing. The whole system is 158,976 A64FX nodes, and running at 2.2Ghz peak performances for 64bitFP/32bitFP/16bitFP/8bitINT are 537Peta/1.07Exa/2.15Exa/4.30Exa (FL)ops respectively, as well as the total memory BW 163 PetaByte/s.

COVID-19 is causing academic/technical conferences to be canceled. If this goes on for a while, we will develop increasingly viable non-travel alternatives for doing and sharing our work. Will these (presumably greener) alternatives remain the default after the pandemic passes?
