applause 1,000,000 years milestone of total run time

Hullo,

as I boredly perused some parts of the web I infrequently visit, I checked my and the global WCG statistics.
I must say, I was a bit surprised when I realised WCG is just shy of the million years total run time mark. Sure, it is but a number, yet an impressive one nonetheless. So maybe, just maybe, it is a cause for celebration.

Just think:

We spent more years computing projects helping the whole of humanity than the existence of the species itself by a factor of seven; the diaspora beyond Africa by a factor of ten (a whole magnitude!); the first languages and agriculture by a factor of twenty(-five)!

So in a way, we done good, people.

Let's do even better.

Re: 1,000,000 years milestone of total run time

The target date for passing 1,000,000 years RunTime has been slipping.

In April when Ripple Labs started to decline it was Aug 8. By early June it had slipped to Sep 28.

It is currently Oct 22. (based on last 285days crunching)

One day faster, in 24 days the last 10k was completed, per the chart linked up in this thread.

(makes it 4 threads on the same topic, mainly because there's no active moderator admin to keep 'our' forums clean. There are admins, but they say they are too busy, yet again few days ago wink ).
