On another note... I'm curious if there are any projects or anything I could use my extra linux machine for as far as number-crunching goes. I don't have any research to be doing myself, but the box is on 24/7 and doesn't really do much. It bothers me to have all of those unused CPU cycles.
TopCoder has nothing to do with people accomplishing work. It's a competition, nothing more. Wrong. TopCoder is a gateway for many corporations to hire globally available programmers and designers. Most Algorithm matches bring a corporate sponsor there to recruit top-performing competitors.
In addition to Algorithm competitions, there are Design and Development rounds that let TopCoder members design and develop software (or bits of software) that TopCoder actually uses and sells to companies.
