What’s prime grid
So a hobby of number fans and mathematicians alike is looking for big prime numbers. Because if you find one, you’ll have a small dose of fame (and sometimes prize money). Of course, the prime numbers we know of are so large that you can’t feasibly check them all by hand anymore, so you have to get computers to run them.
There are two competing projects to find big prime numbers: GIMPS and PrimeGrid. GIMPS (Great Internet Mersenne Prime Search) is dedicated to finding bigger and bigger Mersenne Primes (2^n -1), because Mersenne primes are really easy to check—their sieve is really simple for binary computers.
PrimeGrid runs a bunch of other sieves looking for different kinds of prime numbers, like 321 primes (3*2^n ±1), Proth Primes (k*2^n +1), Cullen/Woodall Primes (n*2^n ±1), Generalized Fermat Primes (b^2^n +1), and more. These aren’t necessarily going to be the biggest, but they are mathematically interesting for other reasons. For example, there’s an attempt to solve the Sierpiński problem (is 78557 the smallest k for which no Proth Primes exist?), called “Seventeen or Bust” (because there were 17 candidates when they started), which had found the 7th largest prime number (since dropped down to 11th place) by eliminating one of those candidates (there are now only 5 candidates). Of course, you can try to find the biggest prime number with their “Do you feel lucky?” project (“a real long shot. It borders on stupidity”).
Both of these you can run in the background on your computer, donating your excess computing power to advancing mathematics. GIMPS is its own standalone program. PrimeGrid runs thru BOINC (Berkeley Open Infrastructure for Network Computing), which you may know from Einstein@Home, Rosetta@home, or World Community Grid.

:O I found out I'm on the top 100 Leading Contributors to Science United, which for those of you who dont know is a volunteer program (called Boinc) you install to run science programs on your computer (cpu/gpu) when you're not using it. So research studies that cant afford to rent super computers borrow a bunch of other peoples computers processing power.
so, like, since I'm not rendering jewelry *all day* I have most of my GPU doing like physics problems or something i dunno, but I'm in the top 100 of people :3
I think originally heard about this from Neil deGrasse Tyson? On his podcast Startalk he talked about having his computers running Boinc to search SETI signals for aliens. When that program concluded I signed up for other ones.

I just added NumberFields@home to my BOINC projects.  This is a research project that uses the idle time of Internet-connected computers to do research in number theory.  Also involved in five other ones.  It's easy and helps science.  Check out BOINC.

Hey! For comic reasons does anyone have any fucking clue what Schedar is even wearing? Or like, any suggestions for the NPCs clothing, like Rigel, Cas, Giana? We only get headshots and that's fine for the game, but I want more so shoot me with ideas please!

anyways im so obsessed with describing myself using the framework of "im like if [blank] was [blank]." I'm like if an animal was epic. I'm like if a freak was normal. I'm like if a cicada was a prophet. I'm like if a thing built by a high school robotics team had to answer phone calls. I'm like if cane's jawbone was a person

RIPPLE BOINC PC
RIPPLE BOINC FREE
The project is concerned with the determination of the three-dimensional forms of proteins in research that can ultimately lead to cure for diseases such as HIV, malaria, cancer or Alzheimer’s disease. The research partners have published more than 35 articles in scientific journals on the basis of research work from this project that promotes knowledge in the fields of health, poverty and sustainability. So far, scientific breakthroughs in cancer treatment and solar energy research have already been made possible. The project distributes millions of small data- and computer-based experiments to thousands of volunteer devices. The network generates approximately 50,000 Gridcoins each day through the Distributed Proof of Research (DPOR) reward mechanism.
RIPPLE BOINC PC
In principle, everyone with his or her private computer can participate and provide the unneeded computing power for research purposes and receives a GridCoin Coin in return. It’s simple: After installing Gridcoin client you can leave your PC perform calculations and receive Gridcoins as a reward. It is not limited to a program, an algorithm or some kind of hardware. The project is based on BOINC, the Berkeley Open Infrastructure for Network Computing. GridCoin researchers work on problems such as the search for cure of diseases, mapping of genomes or climate studies and are remunerated for their work through the system. GridCoin introduces a proof-of-research algorithm to make more productive use of the computing power of computers. Proof-of-work algorithms such as Bitcoin have the disadvantage that some of the energy is wasted on meaningless equations in the degradation process and transaction processing is increasingly centralized through mining pools. On its website, they say you can trade Gridcoins at BitSquare, Bittrex, BTSABC, BTSBOTS, Bitshares-Light, C-Cex, HolyTransaction, OpenLedger, Poloniex and RUDEX. This is done through cryptocurrency peer-to-peer transactions without the need for centralized authority to distribute rewards. The GridCoin Coin is paid as a reward to individuals for their contributions to scientific research.
RIPPLE BOINC FREE
GridCoin rewards volunteer computing on the BOINC (Berkeley Open Infrastructure for Network Computing) platform in a decentralized manner on top of proof of stake.īOINC is free and can be used to unlock many digital clock cycles from processors and graphic cards that are extensively used in cryptocurrency mining. What are the future prospects for GridCoin Coin?.
