* I've been getting questions about neuroimaging environment on triton again. ([name=Marijn]). MNE-Python needs an update. But more importantly: must find a good way to sync workstation environment with triton environment +1
    * Maybe we can have Simo chat about that a bit, our software deployment updates are a really big deal
    * Unfortuately I have another meeting @14:30
    * Let's see if we can do it before then, probably we can...
* If modules are changing based on hardware, how can I make sure I have the software versions I need?
    * Installs are done for all hardware, so "module load" will load the optimal version for that HW

- how can I get a usage summary of a job after it finishes? 
    - seff jobID # check https://scicomp.aalto.fi/triton/tut/parallel/?highlight=seff#monitoring-performance
    - feel free to join one of our garages so we walk you through if you'd like

- What kind of hardware the new 2021 GPUs will be? NVidia or AMD? As far as I know the next CSC supercomputer (LUMI) might use AMD GPUs and that implies rewriting some of the GPU code.
    - We are on it, but we are waiting to hear the final specs of the LUMI hardware. If you end up in a situation that you need to rewrite code for different GPUs, come talk with us and with our RSEs. Press release on Wednesday.

- Online teaching vs contact sessions? Why not both?
- 
- Triton chat on some chat system?
    - +1 for triton chat
        - Find us on Aalto Teams for now, I think Aalto is soon providing access to official Aalto Zulip.
