All-day tutorial on Delivering HPC (Delivering HPC: Procurement, Cost Models, Metrics, Value and More) was really, really good. Got a bit less relevant to what we do in the afternoon since we're pretty small scale (aka commodity HPC), but still excellent.

Gabli tang at Park 27 Korean BBQ for dinner was kind of meh, as was the seafood pancake. Honestly the seafood pancake's first impression was quite good, but the deeper I got into it, the more indifferent it seemed.
