Posted 4 Sep 2011 by Butteroven Post: Steady on, John. LHC@Home's been quasi-dead for years: the new admins haven't had a week to get the out-of-the-box web interface ironed out, and already we're comparing CERN to mere rocket scientists? Admins, a working forum index would be a great help. Thanks. |

Yes. Let\'s get back to the completely rational discussion of how we\'re fobbed off with meaningless busywork while CERN process all the GOOD data in a super-encrypted science-theft-proof bunker... |

Posted 19 Nov 2010 by Butteroven Post: I doubt we can claim any input, as it\'s not actually a LHC experiment. http://public.web.cern.ch/public/en/research/ALPHA-en.html http://alpha.web.cern.ch/alpha/ Nevertheless, GO CERN! It\'s always good to see particle physics in the news. I like to think it means a few more people taking an interest in fundamental research, a few less people blindly fearing The Black Hole That Will Eat Us All. |

10 second work unit (Strange Quirks - Not Quarks)
(Message 22451)
Posted 8 Aug 2010 by Butteroven Post: I have also (luckily) picked up a handful of new wus this month, all of which have terminated in seconds with \"Compute error\". The same units re-sent have sometimes failed similarly, but have all eventually come back \"Success\" after short or long runs. (A quick look suggests to me processor type wasn\'t a factor in whether they ran or failed, for the record.) I\'m used to wall-crashing micro-runs, but compute errors have been uncommon (certainly not this common). I\'d say the latest Sixtrack has picked up a bug or two. I suspect these little work batches have been teed up specifically to find them. |
