What if you no longer have to install a broad range of scientific software from scratch on every laptop, #HPC cluster, or cloud instance you use or maintain, without compromising on performance?

How strong was the #earthquake today in #Myanmar, and how exceptional was it? Some #geological context on this devastating event in the news article below (in Dutch). 👩🏻🔬👇🏻⬇️
Similar to the events in #Turkey in 2023, the impact will unfortunately but likely be enormous... 🏚️💔
