[RakeSearch] Processing of the square # 8 completed

Dear participants, yesterday, processing of the square # 8 is fully completed!
1185453085 orthogonal mates and the six place in rating for that square:

0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 A B
1 2 0 4 5 3 8 9 A B 6 7
5 3 4 2 0 1 7 8 9 A B 6
B 7 9 8 A 6 5 1 3 2 4 0
A 6 8 7 9 B 0 5 1 3 2 4
6 8 A 9 B 7 1 3 2 4 0 5
2 0 1 5 3 4 A B 6 7 8 9
4 5 3 1 2 0 B 6 7 8 9 A
3 4 5 0 1 2 9 A B 6 7 8
9 B 7 6 8 A 4 0 5 1 3 2
7 9 B A 6 8 3 2 4 0 5 1
8 A 6 B 7 9 2 4 0 5 1 3

With your help, we have strictly established that there are not one or two squares with such large number of orthogonal mates, but at least a set!

Thank you for participation and donation of CPU time!

[Milkyway@home] Introducing Myself

Hey everyone,
My name is Dylan DeNicola, and I recently joined the MilkyWay@home project as a Project Developer and Project Tester, so I wanted to introduce myself. I'm currently an undergraduate sophomore at RPI, and I'm working towards a computer science major. I plan on working on the development of the BOINC software for the project, and for now, I will be working on updating the server to the latest version of BOINC, getting our GitHub repos up to date, and doing general bug fixes. It's a pleasure meeting all of you, and I look forward to contributing to this project!

Thanks,
Dylan

BOINC in Astronomy
From the National Academy of Science's decadal review, "Pathways to Discovery in Astronomy and Astrophysics for the 2020s":

"Software and information technology are other areas where the footprints of astronomy have left clear marks. Grid computing is a prime example. The open source infrastructure “BOINC” developed in the Space Sciences Laboratory at the University of California at Berkeley for volunteer and grid computing was developed to search data obtained with radio telescopes for signals from extraterrestrial life (SETI@home). It has since been used in many other areas in astrophysics (LIGO (+Virgo) application of BOINC is looking for evidence of continuous, monochromatic gravitational waves from non-axisymmetric, unknown single neutron stars in the Milky Way galaxy and LIGO noise diagnostics, for example) but also in many non-astronomical contexts including medical, environmental and humanitarian research sponsored by IBM Corporate Citizenship in the non-profit “world community grid”, and even has been used for COVID-19 research"
