News on the future of MLC@Home (the BOINC portion) available below. TL;DR: We're shutting down for now, because we've completed all our desired research goals! 🎉 Until new experiments are proposed, we'll be archiving the project. #ML #boinc mlcathome.org/mlcathome/foru…

MLC's server suffered a hard drive failure today and will need a day or two to recover and restore from backups. It isn't believed any actual data was lost, but we're still investigating. Sit tight! #boinc

MLC@Home is entering an analysis phase and WU generation will be burst-y and inconsistent for a few months. But we are *not* shutting down! Read more at mlcathome.org/mlcathome/foru… . #boinc

MLC@Home is proud to announce that our volunteers have completed the project's DS2 milestone, and the immediate availability of all DS1 and DS2 datasets for download! #boinc #ml #NeuralNetworks News update: mlcathome.org/mlcathome/foru… Dataset download page: mlcathome.org/mlds.html
It's been a while since our last update, but MLC's been chugging away, with DS2 at 99%, and DS4 WUs out in testing. Expect a new news update before the end of the month. Today we ran into a little glitch with disk space, but should be back up within the hour. #boinc

We're back, and should be set for a while longer now until a more permanent solution can be put in place. Until then, happy crunching!

MLC@Home's network will be going down in an hour or so for some brief preventative maintenance. The website and project site will be inaccessible, but should be back within an hour or so. Will update here when completed! #boinc

We're aware of the current issue with WUs coming from the server.. this is a server-side issue, nothing a user has done (aka, our fault, not yours!). We're triaging and working on a fix. Thanks for your patience. #boinc

Coming back online now. New/fixed WUs flowing again, but the post-mortem continues on our end to make sure this doesn't happen again. Note it may take several days for existing WUs to work their way through the system. #boinc

Dataset 1 is now complete! Download links coming soon, along with DS3, which is also complete. DS2 now crunching, and DS4 will begin soon! #milestone #boinc

Tracking an issue with memory usage on the new client causing failures. Temporarily bumped minimum memory requirements per WU as a workaround while we debug.

We're updating to a new client version tonight that's incompatible with the current crop of WUs, so expect some inconsistent availability of WUs over the next 24 hours as we transition.

All complete. Other than a misconfigured minimum memory limit for a few WUs (now fixed) we're back to normal operating cadence. Now to port the GPU clients....

We've hit over 10,000 separate computers crunching away to help us understand machine learning models! You can help out too, learn more at mlcathome.org/ #boinc #ml
