Conductors union could clearly organize a strong opposition to this change. At least in France they proved they know how to do it.

I have some previous experience in calculus and GPU, hopefully my memories of computer graphics classes will help me in this journey.

A huge thank for your advices and the methodology shared!

The company did not hire me to do scientific computing, rather build the beginning of an ambitious software platform which, beside other things, will leverage a scientific computing component. As we are a start up, I'm more than happy to go out my comfort zone to work on the first steps of this component, before we hire specialist in the years to come.

Thanks for your advices on MATLAB and Python, and I'll take a look at OpenMPI. Who knows, maybe I may have the option to understand what the code is doing if I put some work into it :-)

"And quite frankly, I hope I don’t have to give another live lecture ever again. I’ll tape it; I’ll have them watch it — I know most of them are going to watch it at 1.5 or 2x speed. I’ll sound like Alvin and the Chipmunks, but that’s OK. Then we can spend the time in class actually working on problems or discussing some of the issues that I brought up."

Beside the joke, I find the concept of ingesting content at your pace and then talking about it in class very interesting. No idea if the knowledge will stick in mind as well as classic lectures, but I would definitely have been seduced by this proposition when I was a student.

What kind of specialist does a broken iOS app consult?

An orthoplist.

NB: my coworkers gave me a weird look when I told them this handmade nerdy joke, hope it will pull one or two smiles here
