I like the allegory called "The Choice of Hercules" . Handel composed an Oratio with the same name. My favorite aria is "Lead, goddess, lead the way!"

PrimeGrid should have an official account on Internet Archive
(Message 159057)

Hi,
As the title says, I believe that PrimeGrid (and all the other BOINC projects) should have an official archive.org account. The account should have relevant pdf files, screensavers and other types of files relevant to the project.
The archive is especially useful for projects that become inactive. The internet archive has the Wayback Machine, but an actual account would be more convenient and better for preserving useful files.
Overall, I think that more steps should be taken to preserve the history of each BOINC project.

The Ramanujan Machine
(Message 150307)
Posted 752 days ago by Dacicus Geometricus
Is anybody familiar with the Ramanujan machine project? The website of the project is http://www.ramanujanmachine.com/ . The Ramanujan algorithm tries to find continued fractions related to various fundamental constants like π, e and log(2).
It seems that the team wants to bring the project to BOINC. Maybe some of the veterans here can help them.
