Hello everyone, We are planning our next Ampere Community Conversation\*, so please save the date of December 9th at 8:00 am Pacific Standard Time (17:00 CET). Building on the two great speakers we had in October, we have two more equally as good, Lars Wiken and Erik Benner. The next one will be in January 2026. We will do these at least once quarter, although we have enough fun topics to do this once a month. \*\* Lars’ talk: _While it is quite nice to run ARM64 in the cloud, I usually work with ARM64 devices in more of an embedded Linux context. When I had the opportunity to try some things with the 192 core AmpereOne I realized I could blend the two worlds. I grabbed my preferred high-level embedded framework, Nerves, which runs the battle-tested Erlang VM and went in trying to see how many virtual embedded devices I could get going._ _This talk should have something for everyone. Fun demos. Full CPU utilization. Massive load averages. Terrifying overprovisioning. Firmware updates on virtual devices. And the joy of open source._ Erik’s talk: Will be on Java performance on Ampere (Arm64) vs. x86. (he will get us a more descriptive description soon, I forgot to ask). The format will be the same as last time 20 min talk, 5-10 min for questions. At the end, we will keep the room open for a while to let people chat. \*We are working on a name for these events, if you have a better idea, please let us know by replying below. If you see a name you like, click the heart next to it. You can vote as often as you would like. \*\*Please suggest new topics by replying to this post. Don’t worry if you think that it might be a duplicate. ---
