There’s also Rosetta@Home for those running BOINC (SETI@Home and similar efforts).In conversation permalink Douglas A. Whitfield likes this. -

That is more powerful than the world's top seven supercomputers, combined! " -- https://folding.extremeoverclocking.com/ In conversation permalink Attachments

(The B is Berkeley and I think the NC is Network Computing; beyond that, I don't know.) In conversation permalink Douglas A. Whitfield likes this. -
Douglas A. Whitfield (musicman@nu.federati.net)'s status on Thursday, 26-Mar-2020 18:57:21 UTC Douglas A. Whitfield marginally relevant to this thread, but we decided in standup today to figure out if there was anything we could do. We've got an #OpenVPN article coming out to help companies struggling with remote work, but it is hard to image the business case for doing something with Folding@Home or BOINC.
I guess I get to play biologist in the meeting. I quite the microbiology lab in 2006, lol.In conversation permalink -
