Since Bob is back to using milkyway as a desktop I removed the splitter from that machine and put it back on penguin. Not sure if we need it, in all honesty. In any case I hope penguin doesn't freak out again.

Spent the day working on the new multibeam splitter - mostly implementing changes in a large body of code I've never touched before, which means I'm largely spending time figuring out what this code does. This is a good exercise as me, Jeff, and Eric are ramping up on several big programming projects and we've been working separately for a while.

Not so much else newsworthy today.

What most people will never see nor do they want the details, is the "splitter" is working Seti Beta... Now to understand/move it to Seti Main! The Seti Beta Application was just released as MultiBeam 5.20 in Seti Beta... It incroporates some of the advances from Joe and Simmon (the Chicken Coup Crew) as the basic application. So Yes, many are working to help it get here as fast as it can.

In the light of recent events, Matt, I think it's fair to point out that Slow News is Good News.

Back in the middle ages, a court jester was so infamous and annoying with his puns that the king finally got fed up and sentenced him to death later that week.

As the axeman was preparing to deliver the fatal blow at the execution, a rider came up from the palace with news of a pardon for the jester.

Sighing with relief, the jester quipped "No noose is good news!"

So they executed him anyway.

[edit] Sorry, that should read Hangman, not axeman. [/edit]

Thanks for that... you're next!

It appears that Berkeley's download point is having connectivity problems this afternoon. Intermittently not available.

no evidence here perhaps another intermittent problem elsewhere on the net...

It's not too many computers, it's a lack of circuit breakers for this room. But we can fix it :)

The graph that that link points to is updated constantly, so what you were seeing when you posted on June 17th is completely different than what the graph showed back on June 7th.
