Posted 26 Oct 2022 by Jim1348 It shows 0 now, though maybe a few are still being generated. And Rosetta is out too. It is time for me to convert another machine to Folding. |

Posted 14 Sep 2022 by Jim1348 COVID-19 mutations accelerated by virus-fighting enzyme in human cells Researchers have found the first experimental evidence explaining why the COVID-19 virus produces variants, such as delta and omicron, so quickly. The findings, published Sept. 13 in the journal Scientific Reports, could help scientists predict the emergence of new coronavirus strains and possibly even produce vaccines before those strains arrive. https://dornsife.usc.edu/news/stories/3758/covid-19-variants-caused-by-virus-fighting-enzyme/ |

Posted 18 Aug 2022 by Jim1348 Researchers discover 'weak spot' across major COVID-19 variants Researchers have discovered a key vulnerability across all major variants of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, including the recently emerged BA.1 and BA.2 Omicron subvariants. The weakness can be targeted by neutralizing antibodies, potentially paving the way for treatments that would be universally effective across variants. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2022/08/220818091240.htm |

Posted 7 Aug 2022 by Jim1348 My point is energy efficiency, not run time. It won't change it that much, a few watts. Anything in your system will use more. Do you have high-efficiency power supplies? (It will take more than that to save the Louisiana Purchase anyway.) |

Posted 7 Aug 2022 by Jim1348 Can you run SSE2 on a Windows AMD PC and does anybody know if it brings the runtime down from around 3 hours? On a AMD 5900 X CPU The best I can tell you is that running the fma on a Ryzen 5950X under Ubuntu 20.04.4 takes 2 hours 27 minutes. And SSE2 is a little slower than that, while as I recall Windows is a little slower than Linux, but not by too much. I think 3 hours is about what you should expect. |

Posted 31 Jul 2022 by Jim1348 Well, by driving it is more than 440Km (fastest route, around 4 hours) I have other criteria. I was at Aviano Air Base for two years, which is approximately half-way between them. It is geographically balanced for me. |

Posted 22 Jul 2022 by Jim1348 A good point, but FMA is working for me well enough. It is mainly west of the Mississippi River that they have the problems. We may need to give up the Louisiana Purchase. |

Posted 11 Jul 2022 by Jim1348 BA.2.75: A Dark Horse In The Covid Pandemic To have such unique mutations at this stage of the pandemic when the virus has mutated into hundreds, even thousands of competing strains is astounding. These mutations likely have health officials on high alert, as a wealth of new mutations could indicate increased transmissibility or immune evasion if the variant catches fire like its predecessor. https://www.forbes.com/sites/williamhaseltine/2022/07/11/ba275-a-dark-horse-in-the-covid-pandemic/?sh=3de22fa55985 That is interesting. |

Posted 24 Jun 2022 by Jim1348 We just started another heat wave here. Do you have a feel for the percent Wattage reduction? No, I just look at the temp. I was running on all cores of a Ryzen 3950X, and it was getting up to 84C, which is near the danger zone when I pick up errors. I like to keep it below 80C. But for the moment, I have achieved that by under-volting and setting the clock speed to what it can handle. I am now good at 77C even with the fma when running at 3900 MHz and 1.25000 volts on the CPU (each chip is different as you know). However, I know from past experience that SSE2 will run several degrees cooler with only a small loss in performance, if I need it. It probably is only a 5 watt difference in power on that chip though. |

Posted 20 Jun 2022 by Jim1348 Blood Test Aims to Measure COVID Immunity A small blood sample and 24 hours might be all that's needed to find out how strong your immune system is against a first or repeat coronavirus infections. Scientists created a test that indirectly measures your T-cell response -- an important, long-term component of immunity that can last long after antibody levels fall off – to a challenge by the virus in whole blood. https://www.webmd.com/lung/news/20220615/blood-test-aims-to-measure-covid-immunity https://www.nature.com/articles/s41587-022-01347-6 |

Posted 28 May 2022 by Jim1348 What will be the next variant of COVID-19, according to science Scientists from the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard and the University of Massachusetts Medical School, in the United States, developed a “machine learning†model that can analyze millions of genomes from coronavirus samples and predict which viral variants will dominate and likely cause new waves. The model was called PyR0 and could help researchers identify which parts of the viral genome are least likely to mutate. and thus are good targets for vaccines that will work against future variants. The results were published in the journal Science. https://argentina.detailzero.com/news/3258/What-will-be-the-next-variant-of-COVID-19-according-to-science.html |
