22:09 <zombie67> so what's the deal with milkyway?
22:12 <PovAddict> zombie67: pong :P
22:13 <zombie67> hi
22:14 <zombie67> help me decode DA'e email
22:14 <zombie67> change in RAC->FLOPS
22:14 <PovAddict> still can't quite believe it
22:14 <zombie67> what does it mean?
22:14 <PovAddict> but I don't think it matters at this point
22:14 <zombie67> credits at SETI were too low or too high?
22:15 <PovAddict> possibly... however:
22:15 <PovAddict> - since in theory other projects were syncing their credit rates to SETI, all would be high
22:15 <PovAddict> (that's his argument, not mine :P)
22:16 <zombie67> sure
22:16 <zombie67> but which way were they wrong?
22:16 <zombie67> "SETI@home was computing credit based on (integer OPS + FLOPS)/2."
22:17 <PovAddict> - it's not like SETI is/was counting FLOPS accurately anyway (I don't think that's technically possible especially in modern CPUs), so whether a credit is 100 or 200 flops doesn't matter much IMHO :P
22:17 <zombie67> "This was incorrect"
22:17 <zombie67> but he doesn't way what he thinks *is* correct
22:17 <PovAddict> I think without the /2
22:17 <PovAddict> so it was too high?
22:18 <zombie67> "If your site shows FLOPS anywhere, please fix also."
22:18 <zombie67> uh, how?
22:19 <zombie67> maybe he meant it should be /200 instead of /2?
22:19 <zombie67> whatever difference that means
22:19 <zombie67> he already completely screwed up the credits on his own project
22:19 <zombie67> and I mean COMPLETELY screwed up
22:20 <PovAddict> I think SETI was computing credits based on "total operations = (integer ops + float ops) / 2" (later doing some factor like '100' on the total ops) when that /2 shouldn't have been there
22:20 <zombie67> Guh. Why can't he be clear?
22:21 <PovAddict> "If your site shows FLOPS anywhere, please fix also." that means if a site like boincstats is dividing credits by a factor to show how many FLOPS the project is doing, they should change that factor
22:21 <zombie67> so what, are the seti credits going to drop even further now, and expect everyone else to still follow?
22:22 <PovAddict> no, credits aren't going to change
22:23 <zombie67> "SETI@home was computing credit based on (integer OPS + FLOPS)/2."
22:23 <zombie67> "This was incorrect"
22:23 <zombie67> ***was***
22:23 <zombie67> means he changed the credits
22:23 <PovAddict> credits were defined as "1/100th of a CPU-time day on a 1000-FLOP computer"
22:23 <PovAddict> SETI had a /2 division that it shouldn't have, making it not match that definition
22:23 <PovAddict> he changed the definition to match SETI mistake
22:24 *** jadeia has joined #boinc
22:24 <zombie67> no, he changed how it is "computed"
22:24 <PovAddict> http://boinc.berkeley.edu/w/?title=Computation_credit&diff=2818&oldid=prev
22:24 <Romulus> <http://tinyurl.com/2c5kp4u> (at boinc.berkeley.edu)
22:24 <zombie67> either that, or he did not write what he did
22:24 <PovAddict> see first line changed
22:25 <zombie67> so he is cutting the credits by half
22:25 <zombie67> CS was 1/100, is now 1/200
22:26 <PovAddict> SETI was mistakenly calculating credits as if they were 1/200 CPU-day, so he changed the documentation to match the long-standing error (now documents reality)
22:26 <zombie67> that is a huge change
22:26 <zombie67> oh!
22:27 <zombie67> you are suggesting he is changing just the docs?
22:27 <zombie67> because his email does not say that at all
22:27 <PovAddict> his email is on the boinc_stats mailing lists
22:28 <PovAddict> so that stats sites showing "number of floating-point operations per second this project is doing" as a curiosity (like boincstats) fix how they calculate that number based on credits
22:28 <zombie67> yes, stats = credits...not docs
22:28 <PovAddict> he didn't care about anyone else :P
22:29 <PovAddict> his mail is addressed to admins of boinc statistic websites
22:29 <zombie67> yes, which is what I would expect if he was going to change how credits are awarded
22:29 <zombie67> otherwise, why would they care?
22:29 <zombie67> why would they care about the docs changing, I mean?
22:30 <PovAddict> http://boincstats.com/stats/project_graph.php?pr=sah
22:30 <Romulus> <http://tinyurl.com/36mkue3> (at boincstats.com)
22:30 <PovAddict> "Average floating point operations per second: 718,966.9 GigaFLOPS / 718.967 TeraFLOPS"
22:31 <PovAddict> in theory, that number is wrong by a factor of two (unless Willy read David's email already and fixed it)
22:31 <zombie67> so you are saying that his message was meant to tell willy to change his conversion formula?
22:31 <zombie67> and nothing more?
22:33 <PovAddict> and any other stats site that shows such a "FLOPS" number
22:33 <zombie67> wow, that is not how I read his email at all.
22:34 <PovAddict> "I fixed this on the BOINC site, where it shows total FLOPS and per-user FLOPS." refers to eg. http://boinc.berkeley.edu/chart_list.php
22:34 <Romulus> Title: Top 100 multi-project BOINC participants (at boinc.berkeley.edu)
22:36 <zombie67> Still, he says that SETI credits were wrong. And then that they have been fixed.
22:37 <zombie67> nothing about just changing the FLOPS calc.
22:37 <PovAddict> he didn't say he fixed SETI credits
22:37 <zombie67> [19:23] <zombie67> "SETI@home was computing credit based on (integer OPS + FLOPS)/2."
22:37 <zombie67> [19:23] <zombie67> "This was incorrect"
22:37 <zombie67> [19:23] <zombie67> ***was***
22:38 <zombie67> meaning they are different now
22:40 <zombie67> anyway, as long as he meant something different from what he wrote, and SETI credits are not changing, then no issue
22:41 <PovAddict> wow, Sudoku is retired?
22:41 <zombie67> yeah....it shut down a LONG time ago
22:42 <PovAddict> I still remember the list of retired projects in boincstats having like 5 projects
22:42 <PovAddict> and the list of active projects being as long as the list of retired ones is now
22:42 <zombie67> \march 2009
22:42 <zombie67> yeah
22:42 <zombie67> he could help fix that if he carried more of the projects
22:43 <PovAddict> PicEvolvr didn't last long...
22:43 <zombie67> like free-dc
22:43 <zombie67> long enough for me to get a 250 megamilestone

23:44 <jadeia> I am receiving the following error: Internet access OK - project servers may be temporarily down - but had it for several days... I'm guessing that can't be right?
23:46 <jadeia> I have tried detaching from the project and reattaching to it (as per help files) but no dice
