Throwback to April fools day 2022, when I solo-submitted a paper with the word "esoteric" in the title *twice*. The editor carefully asked me if that was a joke. 🖖😆

Turns out I was totally serious, and that paper scored me the MDPI Computation 2022 Best Paper Award and ~500€ prize money.

The paper is about two weird algorithms I found to cut VRAM footprint in half for #LBM #CFD simulations on #GPU. A topic that couldn't be more relevant today with the DRAM crisis. 💾🔥

Je viens de capter ajd que mon GPU de 2016 est considéré trop vieux par NVIDIA pour continuer à le supporter au niveau de CUDA, du coup impossible de l'utiliser pour de la CFD...
Une journée de perdue à galérer entre drivers propriétaires, fin de support pour X11 dans GNOME, Wayland qui est incompatible avec les anciens drivers NVIDIA...
Quel enfer

Du coup y'a encore moyen de jouer avec, mais niveau taff ça y est c'est obsolescent faut croire
