Have you noticed that clusters have naming schemes? For example:

And at Stanford, we have a series named after famous detectives! For this fun Friday Factoid, let’s share our cluster naming schemes with the community!
At Lewis & Clark College, we named our cluster after a sandwich: Bacon, Lettuce, and Tomato (BLT). We recently added a GPU node, and have named it Sprouts (though still refer to the cluster as BLT).
We have BLT hex stickers that seem to be a hot item on campus!
okay this is my new favorite! <3
Our clusters are named after killer whales from SeaWorld of Texas.
No way! This might be a winner! Do you have a link to a page with details, or could you share here?
We are definitely “fish” oriented here:
HPC clusters (and resources) - Shamu, Takara, Kamea and Sakari
Visualization cluster - Nemo
Dev cluster - Dory
