Middleware is a great answer if you are talking to a software engineer but its like trying to explain "what is light" or "what is time". If your audience doesn't have previous exposure

It is possible to crunch solo and for a pool at the same time on a single computer, the BOINC client will treat each project/account combination as a separate project and split time between them using

I am having solar panels installed tomorrow and I have been planning to change my BOINC usage as part of my own power optimization strategy. With a grid connected solar system and an feed-in rats less

I started out pool mining, I think most Gridcoin miners do, I went solo after a few months of collecting the pool rewards. I set up a Gridcoin wallet and transferred my pool earnings to it until I had

Go right ahead. I often overlook some of the newer shortcuts since I have been working with Windows for a long time and have gotten used to the classic ways of doing things. It has taken me a while to

There is also a check box to quickly toggle visibility of hidden files/folders located on the view ribbon in File Explorer (Windows 10).

Today I used Chocolatey GUI to update Grodcoin Wallet to version 4.0.0.0. So far so good.

I'm up to date and ready for v10 blocks.

The chocolatey package will be a useful tool for maintining the research wallet software particularly since it is not capable of updating itself at the moment. I hadn't considered using a package manager

I shall return the favor with an up-vote for what it's worth :) Happy Birthday!

I run "CPU always" with 75% CPU usage and GPU only after 4 minutes of inactivity. Those settings aren't too intrusive on my i7, even when playing some games. My computer is turned on for

Is the market response commensurate to the delisting news? In short, is Gridcoin really worth 30% less now? I don’t think so. Clearly the value intrinsic to the blockchain itself is unchanged, since nothing

Thanks for the link! I connected DHEP on a client without any other projects so it seems the CPID split was guaranteed. I hadn't ever noticed having a split CPID before because I have always signed up

I noticed that my cross-project ID for Distributed Hardware Evolution Project is not consistent with other projects with the same email address. *Has anyone else noticed this issue? *Would this be a problem

Have you done any research on Amorphous solar cells, a third variant that has advantages over crystalline cells but requires more surface area for similar power output?

You might find this post from @ilikechocolate interesting. It looks at the idea of normalizing BOINC credit based on estimated power usage per operation (FLOP), there are some calculations for common

I knew there was something odd when they didn't display a sender address in the Recent Transactions list. Thanks for the information.

Thanks for the tip, I noticed that the work units have a 6 month deadline so I didn't worry about the pace of work. I did think it was strange that an evolutionary algorithm would have such long deadlines

Nice badge ideas, although I admit it took me a while to see the 4-dimensional shape in badge 6. I guess I am used to seeing the 4-dimensional hyper-cube depicted as a cube moving along an axis rather

If your other solar panels are 12V then you might be able to use a USB car-charger. You should check the maximum voltage the cell provides because Photo Voltaic cell voltages can vary quite a lot from
