Dear SiDock@home community,

Just a little update on the development of our CmD software. We were planning to release CmD 0.1.5.; however, we decided to wait a bit. Namely, we want to implement a robust testing (regression, unit) pipeline and lay the work for future software optimization. Therefore we would like to implement a cross-platform consistent pseudo-random number generation that would mean - write once, compile and test everywhere... We think this can be achieved relatively quickly.

On the other front, Mac builds are being tested and we will provide the community with Mac builds through homebrew platform. We will publish the news on future release here.

All the best,
Marko

On 19 June 2022, 04:26:15 UTC, PrimeGrid’s Sierpinski/Riesel Base 5 Problem project eliminated k=63838 by finding the mega prime: 63838*5^3887851-1 The prime is 2,717,497 digits long and enters Chris Caldwell's “The Largest Known Primes Database” ranked 99th overall. 58 k’s now remain in the Riesel Base 5 problem. The discovery was made by Scott Lee (freestman) of China using an AMD Ryzen 5 2600X Six-Core Processor with 32GB RAM, running Microsoft Windows 11 Professional x64 Edition. This computer took about 4 hours, 34 minutes to complete the prp test using LLR2. Scott is a member of the team, Chinese Dream. The prime was verified on 19 June 2022, 22:29 UTC, by an Intel(R) Core(TM) i3-9100F CPU @ 3.60GHz with 16GB RAM, running Linux. This computer took about 11 hours and 57 minutes to complete the primality test using LLR2. For more details, please see the official announcement.

The fifth challenge of the 2022 Series will be a 3-day challenge celebrating the day that our arbitrary measurement units for the Earth's rotation align to numerically resemble the fraction 22/7, which approximates the value of the infamous circle constant 'pi' with an error of 400ppm! Honestly, I'm not sure why March 14th gets all the love -- 3.14 is a much worse approximation for pi! The challenge will be offered on the PPS-LLR application, beginning 22 July 22:00 UTC and ending 25 July 22:00 UTC. To participate in the Challenge, please select only the Proth Prime Search LLR (PPS) project in your PrimeGrid preferences section. For more info, questions, and lively debate about the best approximation for pi (it's 3 😁), check out the forum thread for this challenge: https://www.primegrid.com/forum_thread.php?id=9959&nowrap=true#156359 Happy 22/7!
