India begins work on $2 Billion Exascale Supercomputer for Space & Meteorological Applications

[narcon]

because of the greater number of intel or ibm chips... that's why...

What makes you think Canada lacks it?

 

[kbd-raaf]

another nonsense "feel good" project... (1). supercomputers are actually useless, but useful only to mathematicians ( useless people ) and governments ( for self-congratulations ), (2). let me see infosys-iisc-cdac design a microprocessor and operating system.

WOLOL

Stupid people.

What makes you think Canada lacks it?

(a). not much money to spend on white-elephant projects, (b). no interest in nationalistic posturing on world stage.

Why do I have the feeling that reality will force the program to fall far far far short of the absurd target of 132 EXAFLOPS?

One exaflop is already like shooting for the stars, 132 is rediculous.

Unless India plans their own fusion reactor to power a 132 exaflop computer.

Only useless people on this planet are Humanities student and Teachers like you and your JNU buddies, who add nothing to society except useless rants.

Mathematicians, Scientists, Engineers, and Doctors add to net worth of civilization. They don't leech upon labour of better people than themselves.

And how is your post full of diatribe supposed to be any better than the one you replied to?

No matter where we are Indians will always have to show the world that we are Indians. Typical crab mentality.

mathematics is useful only in application, and that too minimized... there is no need to have an entire category of people called "mathematicians"... mathematics cannot be a science by itself... rules change in mathematics when better understanding in another field arrives... same case with grammer.

Good work, but our emphasis should be upon make affordable supercoumputer, such that it is no longer a monopoly of Govt research institutions but private companies and college can complement their R & D labs with the same

 

[he-man]

This is Numero uno project on the world scale in this game, they would not divulge an ABC of what they are up to.
What makes you think I know this.
Why ask such odd question to begin with?

They can't suddenly come up with a world beating processor in 6 years,,thats why

In this universe among all moving and immovable , living and non living objects
everything has purpose and meaning . Nothing is a failure or useless


You talk about student;s rants . what about your own ???

" humanities students and teachers do not add anything to society .. " .is that your discovery ?


If there existed Nobel prize for stupidity , you would have got it by now .

The motive of that post was to insult. I probably got a little too overboard in insulting.

Mathematics is the base of human civilization development as it theoretically proves/predicts scientific phenomenon.

This Socialist idiot does not know that Mathematics form base of any Science, including Social science.

Nobody could have a career in any Science, pure or Social, if he is not good in mathematics.

Only professional ranters whose job is to whine 24X7 about evil 1% find mathematics useless.

Mathematics is the base of human civilization development as it theoretically proves science.

But Canada makes NASA/USA shuttle's (world famous) cargo bay hydraulic arm...why?
And how is it a white elephant project when Canada is just under India in this game?
And Russia?

Are you serious ?!
