This error - which I've seen too many times to mention - is because the
file isn't visible to the node.

EG: If all the cluster share /opt and /home/ but not /root, and you run
"srun python test.py" from /root - then node1 can't find it (because on
node1, /root/test.py doesn't exist)

"The antidote to apocalypticism is *apocalyptic civics*. Apocalyptic civics
is the insistence that we cannot ignore the truth, nor should we panic
about it. It is a shared consciousness that our institutions have failed
and our ecosystem is collapsing, yet we are still here — and we are
creative agents who can shape our destinies. Apocalyptic civics is the
conviction that the only way out is through, and the only way through is
together. "
