I had fun the whole time!

Mentally I don't really suffer anything, though I did cry like a baby while riding through misty valleys at dawn the third day. I had realized I'd crossed into Normandy, and got emotional from working out from first principles why I new that detail of french geography. In the first town I passed through in daylight the locals were hanging up large banners for their 75th Anniversary of Liberation by the US Army.

I had a few serious physical setbacks from my ankle, losing a cleat bolt, a wrong turn — but it was easy to run into old friends out on the course to regroup and make new friends along the way helping each other out of predicaments.

I lost a lot of my endurance abilities from Covid, so when I do it again I will definitely be shooting for a different goal: https://adrianhandssociety.com/

I hadn't done much riding that summer because of a broken ankle and actually re-fractured it mid-ride from vibration/stress while descending into Brest. The biggest trouble was that it was impossible to get any ice for it, but I found nice self-adhesive bandages to immobilize it the next day and was fine completing the ride.

I'd done many 600km brevets before that comfortably in 35-37 hours with a ~4hr sleep in the middle, but at PBP there were thousands of other strong riders and it was fun to work together.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Randonneuring is a lot more "normal" of a way to ride your bike all day than the Ultracycling approach in the article. Instead of grinding out laps of a racecourse solo, ride from town to town on pleasant backroads socially.

If you've received emails, Cloudwatch events, or SNS messages where the body starts with the string "EC2 has detected degradation of the underlying hardware hosting your Amazon EC2 instance" and wondered what those sparing words are describing, you will find these roles compelling.

8-socket CLX nets you 1.75x the cores, and 3x as many memory channels vs. a 2-socket Rome system. It also scales to a single system image with 32 sockets if you use a fabric to connect smaller nodes:

* 4-socket nodes: https://www.hpe.com/us/en/servers/superdome.html

* 2-socket nodes: https://atos.net/en/solutions/enterprise-servers/bullsequana...

That's 48tb of DRAM with all 128gb DIMMs, or 12tb+128tb when using 512gb Optane PDIMMs.

It is explicitly the role of a Prophet, Messiah, Bodhisattva, etc. to do such things — introduce new evidence that overturns or convolutes current beliefs

The day to day practice of all established religions involves reasoning through a historical lineage of commentaries on existing evidence and continually appending to it with new instances. Religion exists at the intersection of jurisprudence (what should be?) and the scientific method (what is true?). Both Law and Science are human philosophies that directly descended from religious primitives.

Running Windows VMs as kernels for Cygwin environments felt less weird than most modern container architectures.

It was also independently implemented in POWER and ARM A75

The constant feeling of "hey my eyes are down here buddy" in public proves that it works!
