- Registration for the Durham HPC Days is open: https://pay.durham.ac.uk/event-durham/durham-hpc-days-2025. The programme is also getting there: https://durham.readthedocs.io/en/latest/hpcdays/index.html We now have 4.5 days packed with talks, tutorials and workshops!
- I realise we've never published our SIAM BGCE contribution on arXiv. Here it is: arxiv.org/abs/2504.15814 We study stationary black holes phrased as wave equations over an adaptive mesh. The solution should be stationary by definition, but it is subject to numerical instabilities. https://arxiv.org/abs/2504.15814

- It is great to have several high profile speakers today at our AI for Science Day in collaboration with @nvidiaaidev.bsky.social and Dell.
- This is a preprint I'm not involved in directly, but it is "nevertheless" worth reading if you are into reduced and mixed precision: arxiv.org/abs/2504.06889 https://arxiv.org/abs/2504.06889
