Mensa

I scored high enough on an official IQ test (as in, from a clinical psychologist who tested me professionally in person, not some illegitimate online test) to get accepted into Mensa. Should I do it? Some people love it, others claim that it's just a bunch of pretentious cunts playing board games and bragging about how smart they are. What do you think? What have your experiences in Mensa been like?

Being smart autists, I figure that at least some of you might know what Mensa is like. I would appreciate any and all serious insight.

Each compute node may consist of only 512-1024 CPU cores with shared memory using a custom inter-connect.
This is a childish number. Compare it to number of cells in human brain, all working in parallel.

It just goes to show that you don't even FUCKING understand the general topology of modern super computers.
I were talking about "massively parallel" architectures, like Connection Machine, not your "modern super computers".

In essence, they are massive clusters of compute nodes networked together with things like ethernet or a faster custom inter-connect.
This is traditional inefficient von Neumann shit.
