Show HN: Empirical – A framework for computational experiments

I built Empirical to address 2 major inefficiencies slowing down modern science: discovery and reproducibility of experiments.

I'd be happy to answer any questions.

Great work! A question: how do we scale the computations? I know how long my experiments normally take on a 40 core PC. How long will it take and how much will it cost if I use Empirical?

Thanks! Currently we're focusing on single host experiments. We provide an open source client for you to run the experiments on your own hardware, so it's free. The use of the platform is also free for open source.

At some point in the future, once we gather more feedback we'll let you to run the experiments on our servers for a fee.

Hi, I'm new to OSS, and would love helping empirical ci grow and become better. Where do I start?

Hey! just saw this message. Wish HN had notifications.

We're still putting together a roadmap for the open source project, but you can start by using the tool and filing issues that you find with the software or documentation. You can also file feature requests that you'd like to see.

Reach out via our Gitter chat: https://gitter.im/empiricalci/emp

Thanks for your interest!
