1) Message boards : Cafe CPDN : Climate model code is so outdated, MIT starts from scratch (Message 65363)
Posted 14 Apr 2022 by Dr Who Fan
Post:
Another one bites the dust. Guess they don't teach FORTRAN in programming classes anymore.

Climate model code is so outdated, MIT starts from scratch
Julia replaces Fortran as the basis for Earth's new digital twin.

When faced with climate models coded in Fortran in the 1960s and 70s, MIT decided there wasn't any more cobbling together left for the ancient code, so they decided to toss it out and start fresh.

... CLiMA made the determination that old climate models, many of which were built 50 years ago and coded in Fortran, had to go if there was going to be any progress toward better climate models. Now that he's working at MIT on the CGC project, he's realized that "traditional climate models are in a language [MIT] students can't even read."

Will let BOINC retry on its own. The server/connection is probably overloaded right now.

Not sure what, but something still not working. Fresh W/Us, PCs on 24/7... and nothing. Can't upload the trickles. Sometimes they get to 100% but then... nothing.

Did you read what Les Bayliss / Volunteer moderator posted several posts prior above that this has been addressed and will be looked into after the responsibile people return on Tuesday.

I use https for all CPDN web pages in web browsers with NO ERROR MESSAGE and as previously noted in this thread project was detached / exited BOINC / re-attached using HTTPS on my 2 PC's.

MAIN web page requested as https://climateprediction.net loads to that page.

DID NOT WORK FOR ME... As I posted just a few days ago:
Message 59255
The message:
climateprediction.net: Notice from BOINC
This project is using an old URL. When convenient, remove the project, then add https://climateprediction.net/

is still around.

I had detached and re-attached (MANUALLY since the LATEST BOINC still has it as http) using https://climateprediction.net/

Received 1 task each for the 2 PC's re-attached and are crunching away OK.
* BOINC 7.14.2 x64 / Win 7 PRO/x-64 & Win 8.1/x-64. *

I know the message is "cosmetic" in nature. Decided to let the project know it still is around in case they forgot about the error message.

When the project servers resumed stats export on 2018-06-29 EVERYONE LOST CREDIT.
I personally lost 15,959 credit/points.

I then ran top to try and see what was actually happening and it informed me that the three CPDN tasks were stopped and the usage figure for the amicable numbers task indicated it was indeed using all four cores.


BOINC has ALWAYS been this way as far as I recall - ALL CORES or NOTHING for Multi-task projects.
