github.com/rse-standrewscs/shallow-water TL;DR: Rewriting isn’t always bad, Amdahl’s Law is important and memory bandwidth is a potential bottleneck when doing many simple double precision math operations Introduction As part of an Undergraduate Research Assistant Scheme in my first year of university I was tasked with parallelising a piece of shallow water simulation software written in FORTRAN by Dr David Dritschel of the Vortex Dynamics Research Group, under supervision of Dr. Alexander Konovalov, at the University of St Andrews.
In the 1990s, a troupe of hippies spent two years sealed inside a dome called Biosphere 2. They ended up starving and gasping for breath. As a new documentary Spaceship Earth tells their story, we meet the ‘biospherians’

Wealthy men turned the famous Paris Opera Ballet into a brothel.
One day Alan Eliasen read a fart joke and got so mad he invented a programming language. 20 years later Frink is one of the best special purpose languages for dealing with units. “But why do we need a language just for dealing with units?” Glad you asked! Intro to Units A unit is the physical property a number represents, like distance or time. We almost always are talking about SI units, or Système international.
What seemed to enrage a former inmate most was the mutual consent of the men he lived with.
In a lot of legacy code, I've come across "integer dates". It's a pretty common way to store dates in a compact format: an integer in the form "YYYYMMDD", e.g., 20200616 It's relatively compact, it remains human readable (unlike a Unix epoch). It's not too difficult to play with the modulus and rounding operators to pick it back into date parts, if you need to, though mostly we'd use something like this as an ID-like value, or for sorting. Thanks to Katie E I've learned about a new format: decimal years. The integer portion is the year, and the decimal portion is how far through that year you are, e.g. 2020.4547. This is frequently used in statistical modeling to manage time-series data. Once again, it's not meant to be parsed back into an actual date, but if you're careful, you can do it.
For years, neo-Nazis in northern Germany have been trying to turn the village of Jamel into their own little paradise. A husband and wife who are trying to stop them now have to live with police protection.
