Not entirely dev related, but fuck this shit. My thesis' deadline is next week and I still have a lot to write. And today my instructor found a mistake in my geometry. (I am making CFD simulations with Ansys btw).

My poor computer worked for 3 days non stop at maximum load. And now that it finished it can start once again from the start. That poor bastard... One case takes almost 16 hours to calculate and I have eight from them.

We have a beats with 16cores and 128GB RAM in the office, but it's pretty much almost occupied, and its only 2 times faster than mine at home. (This calculation only eats CPU not RAM)

All I can hope for is, that I would be able to setup a working distributed parallel interface so I can utilise my fathers PC as well so that I will have 16 cores to run my calculations.

    Well the thing I am calculating is proprietary, so sending it to myself was only possible with distinct authorization. Basically nothing should leave our intranet.

    The company also have its own HPCC (High Performance Computing Cluster), but we don't have access to it here.
