Fantastic to hear this is working well for you. What you describe is almost exactly how we ran http://www.BootCycle.com in Brighton back in 2009. We constrained it to just 10 weeks but I like the idea of making it more long term, I think it will need a few big deadlines to keep people motivated beyond 10 weeks.

Hello Ian! I’ve found you after almost an hour of trying to figure this out. I’ve seen the currency exchange column but the impression given is that under it there is only currency converter information. Even after I read your review I hesitated because I was sure that this column was only informational. But then I thought so many people are thanking him, so let’s give it a try! Thank you for sharing this with us!

Sorry, no idea. I don’t run CUDA on Windows, just Linux.

Thank you very much this had me totally stumped for ages. The second part of the diff
#define isnanf(X) isnan(X)
-#define isnan(X) __isnan(X)

may not be necessary now as seems to have been fixed in the latest released source with the comment

/* on some previous versions of OSX we seemed to need the following */
/* but not on 10.4 */
/* #define isnan(X) __isnan(X) */
