Project: Africa Rainfall Project

... Fortunately, Amazon Web Services (AWS) agreed to host the data, and thus began the process of moving the data. Since the move is complete, the ARP team has been taking steps to make the data more broadly accessible through the AWS platform, but this work is still in the early stages. Currently, the focus is on finalizing the preparation of new work units and generating the data needed to restart ARP.

... We have assessed that both approaches are feasible, and wanted to let volunteers know that we are on a defined path to restarting ARP1 in the coming weeks.


The timeline of a possible restart of this project depends on the information from the ARP team. If the code and data required is not fully available to us, we will need to build out the missing components of the pipeline for generating new ARP1 work and confirm that we are able to reproduce the same inputs as we previously received from TU Delft servers to validate the new pipeline. Regardless, there will be no change and no action required by volunteers to facilitate the process and when ARP1 restarts work unit distribution will be the same as before.

Can't connect to database

Project is down
The project's database server is either down or ran out of connections at the moment. Please check back in a few minutes. 

It'd be nice if there was a social media page for Rosetta, updated in the last 10 years, with a quick message to explain what's going on

On one task, the estimated time of completion has already passed and yet it keeps getting earlier!

Now who broke what at WCG? Tried to go to the forums..

Early-Adopter Problems
Since mixing different CPUs is a relatively new thing for x86 CPUs, there are some rough edges to be aware of in the early days. Developers of PC software previously haven't had reason to expect more than one type of CPU in a computer, so their software isn't aware of the difference between a P- and E- core. In general, this isn't an issue because the operating system assigns software threads to CPUs as needed, but there have been reports of some software (such as Denuvo) crashing or behaving strangely on these new CPU designs.

...

To sum it all up, here are the key facts you should know:

* Hybrid-architecture CPUs have both high-performance and high-efficiency cores.

* The efficiency cores save power and free up performance cores to concentrate on the most demanding tasks.

* PC software designed for traditional CPUs may get a little confused by hybrid CPUs until software patches arrive.

* You'll need the latest version of Windows to make the most of these CPUs, at least until older operating systems are updated

I wondered if it was the specific project that was broken but now I have seen it happen on different projects.

Don’t rip up your tickets yet!

Saturday night’s massive $1.3 billion Powerball drawing was delayed, putting life-changing dreams on hold for eager players.

The numbers were supposed to be drawn at 10:59 p.m. — but the numbers were still pending by 11:30 p.m.

Powerball said in a statement that the delay was due to one participating lottery needing “additional time to complete required pre-draw procedures, which have been enacted to protect the security and integrity of the Powerball game.”

Every single ticket sold nationwide must be checked and verified against two different computer systems before the numbers are drawn, Powerball said.

Magnitude 4.7 earthquake rocks New York City, tri-state area

A rare earthquake shook the New York area Friday morning, rattling parts of the Big Apple, Connecticut and New Jersey.

The preliminary 4.7-magnitude earthquake struck near Lebanon, New Jersey, around 10:23 a.m., according to the US Geological Survey.

Tremors could be felt as far north as New Paltz, New York and as far south as Delaware.
