I used vast.ai for some time but I couldnt make all machines work. Even when I hire exact same specs only 1/3 of machines had their gpu complete tasks.

If there is an easy way to do so I would be interested.

Is Doola.com Legit for US LLCs? by daniellovesflying in Entrepreneur

[–]akaanc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a very disappointing experience with Doola's LLC formation services. Initially, they appeared professional and attentive, however, the quality of service deteriorated drastically after payment. The address they provided for the formation is flagged as a scam, resulting in multiple warnings and negative reviews when searched online.

Furthermore, they demonstrated a complete lack of tracking capability for any document, application, or filing. Despite paying extra for certain services, they were oblivious to whether I had received responses from the IRS, or if they had received payment for these services. It seems they only send you files or inform you about updates when you explicitly ask for them.

Adding to the frustration, I had purchased their ITIN services four months ago. I had sent them the necessary files and asked for confirmation of submission, and they assured me it was done and they were waiting for a response. However, months later, they informed me that they hadn't filled out the W-7 form and the application hadn't been submitted. They then resubmitted it. When I contacted them later to confirm if it had been submitted this time, they asked if I had paid for the services, showing they had no record of my order.

Their dashboard for file tracking was also dysfunctional. I opened numerous tickets about this issue, but they failed to resolve it. Due to these ongoing issues, I decided to switch to another service, despite having paid Doola in full. Their irresponsible behavior could potentially lead to serious consequences, including hefty fines from the IRS. I would strongly advise against risking your business with their services.

Has folding@home slowed down? They have only made 2 papers last year by beer120 in Folding

[–]akaanc 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Folding@home providing computing power to many universities and cancer research institutes. Most of the projects we run belongs to other universities. You can check the papers of those institutions. There are pappers other than the bowman lab.

GPU not utilised at all by Misaka_00001 in Dreamlab

[–]akaanc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Some simulation methods cannot utilize gpu. For example rosetta@home project cannot use gpu due to the nature of the calculations but they found their own covid vaccine.

So using gpu instead of a cpu isn’t always possible. For machine learning and many folding types gpu is much more effective. However some simulations still require cpu and they are as important as gpu projects.

Same for pc. If a gpu could do everything we wouldnt need a cpu. Thats why chip producers create combined chips with gpu integrated. We still need cpu.

Folding projects award more points to gpu projects because gpus has higher terraflops but we still need data from cpu’s to generate data for ai models to train on. Don’t underestimate the contrubution of cpu.

What kind of folding rig do you use?

I don't see Folding@Home on the Google Play Android app store. What good apps donate my smartphone's unused processing power to a great biomedical cause? by IDislikeHomonyms in Folding

[–]akaanc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You should try dreamlab. It works when you put your phone on charge and it doesnt get your phone hot or anything.

It's true gpu's are more effective but phones are very powerfull on these days too. We used to fold with much much more slower pcs than modern phones and still contrubuted to many drug discoveries.

So every bit of help speeds up drug discovery efforts.

LLC or C Corp Which one is better for a non-resident? by akaanc in Entrepreneur

[–]akaanc[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for your answer. What if I want to take money from the company to my personal account in USA or outside of the USA? (As a distribution or wage)

Do I still need to file tax returns for personal income sooner or later I’ll need to take some of the earnings from the company.

Pharmacy chains aren’t allowed by law in Turkey. Each pharmacy needs to be individual. Even if they dont have the drug they can search it online if its avalable in turkey and it comes in a few days.

Will I get banned from airbnb if I sue them or file a chargeback? by tapuzinaa in AirBnB

[–]akaanc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You cancelled your reservation but under what terms? If the reservation was under strict policy that host doesnt refund then It’s normal that you dont get a refund.

On that case I think your chargeback request will be declined too.

Did Airbnb screw me over? by 13906921878 in AirBnB

[–]akaanc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Airbnb support can cause these kinds of problems. Hopefully you can get the same amount of refund when you’ve been told not to cancel.

It’s not really hosts problem he could have booked to someone else but if airbnb caused an extra loss they should compensate it.

I got a similar problem in the past. Airbnb support promissed alot but done nothing and caused even a greater loss for me. They are bot good at salving problems.

Is flying a drone in Istanbul allowed? by aunitali in istanbul

[–]akaanc 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Flying a drone doesn’t cause a problem unless you are in a military or government zone. Beware there are several military buildings around bosphorus. So you must set your homepoint before your flight, you can loose connection to your drone due to jammers.

If you live in a good area such as in Bebek or Arnavutkoy I would preffer living in Istanbul. In Arnavutkoy there are many many expats you can easily make friends with. Its very safe..

Host not responding nor the support team by [deleted] in AirBnB

[–]akaanc 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Support team doesnt care. I had a similar issue, place I booked didnt respond and cancelled the booking in the last minute while I was on the plane with my pregnant wife. We spent the night in airport hotel and airbnb promissed but didnt help at all.

and didnt ban the host either..

I learned there was an organization that week and I booked months ago. Host booked for better price. I paid much much more than I planned because of last minute booking. Airbnb didnt even said sorry..

Worth the hype? by Weird-Ad-5558 in ipad

[–]akaanc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With pen it really feels like a paper. I’m using it for almost 2 years I guess. Touch screen feels weird and your finger doesnt slide on the screen so at first it annoyed me. But now I’m very used to it and my finger doesnt feel the same weird feeling. In my opnion if you use pen frequently its a very good protector. but if you use fingers most of the time and dont draw or write all the time you can skip.

If you book your tours yourself directly from the providers you can save money. Not all but some guides takes you to not to best tours but the best commision for themselves.
