Industry Out of Phase With Supercomputers (IEEE Spectrum)

An article in IEEE Spectrum covers a recent report by the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA): 

NNSA has developed massive and sophisticated codes that run on supercomputers to verify the continued security and performance of nuclear weapons designed decades ago. Keeping them up to date requires new generations of supercomputers that can run more complex models faster than the months required on today’s machines. But industry, which has shelled out big bucks for state-of-the-art fabs, is targeting big, profitable markets like cloud computing.
