All-day workshop on Best Practices for HPC Education and Training was not as good as the tutorial the day before, but still useful.

I meant to go to the first gala, the exhibitor's gala that was tonight in the exhibit hall, but I realized I forgot to pack some stuff, so ended up going shopping instead over in the Beltline. Since I was already there and the food options downtown were not exciting, wandered around a pair of food halls as well to find dinner. Hawkers Asian Street Food was kind of meh, but they at least did a good set of chicken wings, and the Betline trail is a nice pedestrian mall.
