Exaflops/s : WTF are Exaflop accelerating?
Exaflop is 1 quintillion flops (floating point math operations in a second.). Yes, probably can run DOOM.

That's the joke. The table has Exaflops/s => Exaflop /s^2^ => acceleration. Ah, no it doesn't, it has Exaflop/s rather than the normal Exaflops. My bad. Funny how you see what you expect to, no?

You don't like run ons?

I'll help with a layman explanation in addition to what op already defined.
Teraflops is a measure of raw compute power often used to measure GPUs(but isn't really accurate to use to compare 2 different kinds, but that's a whole nother conversation). Exaflops are a million times more than teraflops.

Right, but flops is floating point operations per second. Adding another /s makes it acceleration.

Where is the other s?
Edit: I'm not very observant. I was reading too fast and saw "ac..." and my brain filled it in as "actually".

People constantly mix these up and it's been shorteningly my life considerably

I've heard it said that when you have the fastest supercomputer, you have the advantage on running computations and simulations that are only accessible by future hardware. The country that has the fastest supercomputer is therefore the most advanced.

If it's any consolation. I got the gist of joke.
