@carolynzy , there's a temporary workaround. Go to the XML and replace ``` ``` with ``` ```

@carolynzy, If you just do the change I suggested above, do you still get the "getting stuck" problem?

@carolynzy Changing the priors should be done only for statistical reasons, never for computational ones. I suggest you change only the operators and see if solves the problem.

@carolynzy , it is most certainly a computational problem. The default priors, while not perfect, are designed to be reasonable for the vast majority of applications.

Hi, @mdhall272 , AFAIK @mandevgill is working out exactly what's going on. If you're interested in other priors for the precision, I had a play around with them [here](https://github.com/maxbiostat/CODE/tree/master/skygrid_hyperprior). The...

@carolynzy , First, here is a picture of the trace plot for context to others:  I don't know exactly what the problem is and it's hard to tell without...

Is the "location" of the message of relevance for debugging reasons? If yes, maybe keep a "backwards compatible" version that throws the warnings as they happen. I like the idea...

To reproduce this error, one must do `wget https://github.com/beast-dev/beast-mcmc/archive/46ca0687ef9ede34cafeca8721c1fe52b0e95547.zip`, extract, and compile (`ant`). This gets a snapshot of the repo roundabout the time this was reported.

We've found it works as well or better than the discrete representation, with potential to work quite well when sampling the quantiles with AVMVN. Happy to run some tests if...

I thought we switched to the `mu` parametrisation exactly to escape DeltaExchange with unequal weights. What am I missing?
