Choosing between RStudio Community OR StackOverflow OR Research Computing Q&A site for posting a question

[aculich]

While working with the academic research computing community to build a Q&A site using Discourse, I came across this RStudio Community Discourse site. We asked a similar question to the thread you started here: Choosing between this site and StackOverflow for posting a question.

So, we wanted to start a new thread here to ask a similar question about our Research Computing Q&A site: https://ask.cyberinfrastructure.org/ or for short https://ask.ci/

An example of a question on your site that might be well-suited for our site is this one:

Parallel for loop on linux cluster - How to?

I have a loop, where each iteration takes ~1 hour. As each iteration in the for loop is independent, I would like to perform this in parallel on a linux cluster, such that runtime will be ~1 hour, rather then 1h x n_iterations. Pseudo code: for( i in interations ){ do time heavy iteration independent calculation save results to file go to next iteration } Read in and concatenate results write concatenated results to single file I am looking for experience in running such parallel loops?

Or other questions with keywords such as hpc: Search results for 'hpc' - Posit Community

We welcome you and your community to check out our site, to encourage people to ask questions with us where you think it makes sense to do so, and to help us define guidelines to direct people to your site or StackOverflow as appropriate.
