[climateprediction.net] Linux work *perhaps* coming up in quantity

From thread "New work discussion" at the CPDN message board, message 66477 and later. This discussion branched off of the ages old question of whether the reporting deadlines shouldn't be shortened a little nowadays. My understanding of the CPDN tasks is that there are no "urgent task...

Re: Weekly DC Stats scripts

The only differences are between my Folding stats and yours, but I believe this may be because they update more often than the other stats. True; they update every 3 hours. I admit that I am not consistent at what time of day I pull the stats. Added in 11 minutes 26 seconds: I edited dnet_weekly_st...

Re: Weekly DC Stats scripts

I looked at the BBcode of your June 19th post and it did have the dots coded for italics, but as far as I could see the output of the rc5-72_weekly_stats_dump.sh was not giving me that.

What do you mean by "doing this manually"? The BB code which the script inserts into the RC5-72 output has always been sufficient for me to suppress the anandtech.com board's subsequent automatic linking.

Bonus stats! This script works much like the main script for TeAm AnandTech's stats, except for team Ukraine. There are no Folding@home stats or RC5-72 stats provided here. One extra step which is implemented in here is that guest crunchers get the name of their team of origin attached. Well, where ...

Re: Feed Bot Issues

Every now and then the feed bot is blocked by iThena. (Most of the time iThena does respond, but eventually it doesn't and then the bot needs manual intervention to get going again.) So I would rather like to leave the two iThena newsfeeds disabled for now.
