00:19 < ybit> hm, i take back what i said, there a few
00:19 < ybit> who know where this will go, so i´m sushing
00:19 < ybit> bullshit you say, explain if you have time
00:19 < ybit> i´m going to bed
00:19 < ybit> g´night everyone
00:20 < kanzure> you ask me to explain and leave a few seconds later?
00:21 < ybit> i´ll check in the morning, promise
00:22 < kanzure> because I can't prove its existence
00:22 < ybit> well, that was quick :P
00:22 < kanzure> yep

10:28  * fenn notes that the american economy runs on bullshit
11:04 < ybit> regarding bullshit: my friend gave a presentation at a well-known research university in cambridge, ma, and he told before the presentation that he had spent most all of his money on the latest clothes and the importance of presentation and bullshit, especially in the academic world
11:04 < ybit> i can see how that would apply in business, but in the scientific community?!
11:08 < ybit> i guess it happens though
12:18 < jm> who told him to do so?
12:18 < jm> the scientific community? we don't let you in because you don't look like us? ;)
12:30 < ybit> heh
12:39 < fenn> i've seen many distinguished professors in jeans and flannel (or whatever atrocious getup they can think of)
12:39 < fenn> its more like good manners than an absolute requirement
12:40 < fenn> but i dont think most scientists really care
13:13 < ybit> i never think about
13:13 < ybit> nor do i care
13:17 < ybit> for vacation, i want to visit CERN and lab AAB of the SG building at EPFL (blue brain!), just need to find a few beaches and spas along the way to satisfy everyone else :)
13:48 < kanzure> ybit: Good luck.
13:49 < kanzure> Take many photos.
13:49 < kanzure> btw, does it make me a geek if I spotted a freckle on Princess Leia's back and nobody else on the internet has mentioned it?
13:49 < ybit> haha, i´ve noticed it as well :)
13:50 < ybit> does it make me a geek to play back the star wars films to spot every easter egg? :)
13:51 < ybit> wouldn´t do it now of course since there´s so much for me to catching up to do in so many fields of science
13:53 < ybit> grr, grammar, [- first instance of ´to´]
13:58 < ybit> i think what makes you a geek is that http://heybryan.org/shots/inspiration/Superkuh_Jan22_06_desk_112956055_53fe3cf020.jpg is filed under inspiration :)
14:21 < kanzure> heh
14:22 < kanzure> yes, I do repetitively watch Star Wars
14:22  * kanzure still needs a new relayhost
14:50 < jm> Superkuh?
14:54 < jm> that's german. anyone german here or what is it?
16:24 < ybit> jm: superkuh is someone´s irc username 
16:25 < ybit> and he does weird things on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/user/Superkuh2
16:26 < ybit> weird in a good way of course
16:26 < ybit> ...i think :P
16:29 < kanzure> http://superkuh.ath.cx/
16:29 < kanzure> Hm. It's down.
16:30 < kanzure> He's stealing wireless from his neighbor, so.
17:29 < fenn> translates as 'super cow'
17:41 < kanzure> there's some german show that he claims it's not related to
18:12 < kanzure> grr
18:12 < kanzure> I should have listened to Jef
18:12 < kanzure> earlier this month, on the 5th, he mentioned that the problem I was going to hit was "Correlating data to the extent that you can extract semantics."
18:12 < kanzure> sure enough he was right
18:50 < kanzure> ffs, why haven't I written the wiki interface to git repos yet
19:14 < kanzure> ok, I'm successfully completely confused
19:17 < kanzure> somebody remind me why I had two concurrent strategies and where the first, the local augmentation bullshit, came from ? 
19:17 < kanzure> it was something about needing to break past some of the information input/output constraints
19:29 < ybit> who´s jeff?
19:29 < ybit> and can´t you just ask him for a log :P
19:32 < ybit> wow, i really need to take it easy with the emoticons
19:34 < kanzure> Jef is a good friend of mine from lists.extropy.org
19:34 < kanzure> I did have a log, that's why I said earlier this month
19:57 < fenn> jef is a logic nazi
19:57 < fenn> not that that's necessarily a bad thing..
20:03 < kanzure> he's fun to read
20:03 < kanzure> not to mention somewhat useful anyway
20:23 < kanzure> "The Google provides all. I am merely its proxy."
20:24 < fenn> proxying google eh? dont you know that's against their TOS? sinner!
20:57 < kanzure> how does one get over one's self? heh'
21:58 < kanzure> before I forget
