I have a silly question to discuss:
is there any chance that a Coronavirus vaccine can be found by brute force?<p>The world already has a pretty good infrastructure (Seti@Home) for that, and media all over the world already informed everyone about the threat. Participation in saving the world from the plague could be a very good motivation to join distributed calculations.<p>Or it makes no sense at all to try the brute force?
