The Cray-1, designed by Seymour Roger Cray, was tested at Los Alamos (perhaps a mistake given that its high altitude, 2300 m above sea level, makes it even more vulnerable to cosmic rays).

Add climate change and we need to keep track of which decade these flood levels were determined. For example, with expected sea level rise over the next few decades what currently would be extreme coastal floods (50-year floods or a large flood with only a 2% chance in any given year) are likely to occur annually for most coastal U.S.
