Let me know if it works. I'd have ordered one, but forgot that I had a semi-annual car insurance payment this week. 08:56 < JayDugger> I assume so. I remember a podcast where Charles Ostman talk about similar things. 08:57 < JayDugger> If you know someone working at a chip fab, or who works on equipment for such places, they can probably tell you in great detail. 08:58 < ThomasEgi> 250 bucks for a bluetooth controlled one-transistor device.. is so.. meek^ 08:59 < JayDugger> Agreed. If the market will bear it, then good for them. I find it awfully pricey. Thus my comments about upverter and circuitlab. 08:59 < ThomasEgi> i mean. sure if you need it to fully comply with medical grade standards it can get expensive. but if you don't care about operating it along with half a dozen other devices strapped to your body. you can get away on a budget 09:00 < JayDugger> Exactly. What would a one-off cost, assuming you handled it all on-line? 09:00 < JayDugger> As in, 1) draw schematic. 09:00 < JayDugger> 2) click make 09:00 < JayDugger> 3) provide shipping address and billing information 09:00 < ThomasEgi> not worth making on-line 09:01 < JayDugger> Hands up who doesn't have the parts necessary in their home. 09:01 < ThomasEgi> hands remain down. 09:01 < JayDugger> Mine are up. L) 09:01 < ThomasEgi> if you battery operate it, the most expensive part is the battery 09:01 < JayDugger> If foc.us can sell them for $250, I think you could make them on-line. :) 09:01 < ThomasEgi> bill of material ranges in single-digit dollar. 09:02 < ThomasEgi> matter of money. 09:02 < JayDugger> I'm listening. 09:02 < ThomasEgi> with basic soldering skills it's easy to make one yourself 09:03 < JayDugger> Agreed. I can go to work and build one. 09:03 < JayDugger> I am trying to avoid doing that. 09:03 < ThomasEgi> afraid of building a constant current source? 09:03 < JayDugger> Afraid of getting fired. 09:03 < JayDugger> (More accurately, afraid of yet another nasty conversation with my 09:03 < ThomasEgi> ask for permission to solder some circuits? 09:04 < JayDugger> boss about why doing something unrelated to work with company 09:04 < JayDugger> on the clock, with com;nay 09:04 < JayDugger> company supplies should get ignored.) 09:04 < ThomasEgi> whatever. i mean. it's not like soldering iron are hard to source 09:05 < JayDugger> Fair enough. I get your point that they are easy to build. I want to buy one to save my time. 09:05 < ThomasEgi> time= money 09:05 < ThomasEgi> 250 bucks to be precise 09:05 < kanzure> delinquentme: there are many cheap tdcs things that are working, dunno what you are talking about.. 09:06 < kanzure> the foc.us site suffers from evil marketing and non-existence 09:06 < JayDugger> Please show me one for sale cheaper than $250. 09:06 < ThomasEgi> in the end. it's just a controllable current source. 09:06 < kanzure> oh please, if it happens to be $300 who cares? 09:06 < kanzure> you can already build your own for less than 250 anyway, not sure why 250 is your magic number for not wanting to buy one 09:07 < JayDugger> Okay...one last time. I want to buy 09:07 < ThomasEgi> JayDugger, http://home.arcor.de/positiveelectron/files/controllable-cc-source.png one example of an simple constant current source. may not comply to medical standards. but if you add a 10mA fuse in series with the electrodes. it should work for simple tests and not instantly kill you. 09:07 < ThomasEgi> shrug. well. then. buy one^ 09:09 < kanzure> ThomasEgi: we could sell one if you want. i could also dump in money for pre-order/parts/supply reasons. 09:09 < kanzure> ThomasEgi: but you might have different priorities 09:09 < delinquentme> kanzure, awesome yeah i just found out aout this :D 09:09 < kanzure> ah. well, if you look at their marketing closely, you will see that they are completely full of shit. 09:09 -!- FooQuuxman [~test@c-98-215-254-55.hsd1.il.comcast.net] has joined ##hplusroadmap 09:10 < delinquentme> soooo bio-nano-particles for thermal transfer liquids ?

Personally, I think it is hubris to think those of us in this thread have the right to solely decide how to shape ... 17:33 < kanzure> ... this regulatory space because that is what we will be doing shaping this regulatory space. It includes a lot more stake holders. We hope BioCurious will be a partner to help shape that regulatory space. It is clear, however, BioCurious is uncomfortable over the Glowing Plant Project's release of seeds. Glowing Plant Project understands this and, rather than having editorial control exerted over Glowing Plant by BioCurious, is now ... 17:34 < kanzure> ... looking to conduct the work elsewhere. Hopefully, this will allow BioCurious to focus on a plan for long-term sustainability and the structural changes needed to implement it." 17:34 < kanzure> "Finally, the Bioluminescence Community Project, Plant Biology Group, and Golden Braid Group have all been instrumental in the Glowing Plant Project origins. Glowing Plant was planning on supporting these groups by providing funds for memberships, training, and contracting out parts of the project to these various groups. Glowing Plant is currently rethinking how to support these projects and groups. I am personally sorry for not having a ... 17:34 < kanzure> ... more satisfying answer at this time especially given my close ties to each of these groups." 17:36 < kanzure> heh "has decided to release seeds in a safely and ethically" 17:36 < kanzure> i mean, "ethically." 17:37 < juri_> methinks that word might need finer definition in his vocabulary. 17:37 -!- delinquentme [~asdfasdf@66.233.132.203] has quit [Ping timeout: 245 seconds] 17:37 < kanzure> no, i think he is just bad at writing sentences 17:37 < kanzure> his grammar is all over the place 17:37 < kanzure> "in a safely and ethically." is no way to end a sentence. 17:38 < juri_> still, one cannot decide on ethics. one can only set your own morals, and discuss ethics with the community. 17:38 < kanzure> huh? 17:39 < juri_> I always took ethics as being the agreed to upon standards, where morals were personal. 17:39 < kanzure> i don't know why you are typing these sentences 17:39 < juri_> its perfectly ethical to do a lot of things i'll drop dead before doing. 17:40 < juri_> oh, that was just what stuck out at me. 17:40 < kanzure> "that" is what? 17:40 < juri_> the use of the term ethics there. 17:40 < juri_> ethical would be to simply comply with 'industry practice' whatever that is. 17:40 < kanzure> because of bad grammar, you assume he has a different concept of ethics than you do? 17:41 < kanzure> uh, that's appeal to authority. industry practice is not necessarily ethical. 17:41 < juri_> no, because he's discussing a field that is in development, and which he personally seems to lament exactly what-went-on, i'm saying that the term ethics may be a little premature, as there is no 'community' to decide what ethical practices are. 17:42 < kanzure> uh, there is a huge global community of biological organisms already 17:42 < kanzure> way way way larger than any computing subculture 17:42 < juri_> you're right, it is appeal to authority. thats how i've had ethics explained to my by those with PHDs, that take apart brains. 17:42 < juri_> they wash their hands, by appealing to the authority of the ethics board. 17:46 < juri_> I would welcome a better definition myself, if you have one. 17:51 < kanzure> logs/2008-08-03.log:15:39 < kanzure> ' For the transhumanist attitude, the reality of “working code” has a reality that other assertions about the world do not. Extreme transhumanism replaces the life-world with the world of the computer, where bad (ethically bad) ideas won’t compile. 17:54 < kanzure> logs/2012-11-05.log:08:09 < brownies> how ethical is my toothbrush? 17:54 < juri_> this is the same sort of logic that ends in the invisible hand of the market. 17:56 < kanzure> which logic? 17:56 < juri_> you know, i'm minorly comforted that you don't have a good canned statement about ethics. it leads me to believe the difference between ethics and morals is not often debated here, which is a good thing, time-wise. 17:57 < juri_> the first statement, about hoping to create a situation where unethical actions won't compile. it reminds me of the calls for a self-regulating market. 17:58 < juri_> bad business decisions are made every day, but the market magically regulates, by eliminating any nonproductive decision makers (companies). 17:58 < juri_> regulation through selection. do we want that in producers of artificial organisms, where their work is quite likely to out-live the company? 18:01 < kanzure> regarding time-whatever, yes it's because we mostly ban discussion about ethics/morals because everyone is really bad at it 18:01 < juri_> feel free to tell me to STFU then. :) 18:01 < kanzure> no, it's not about hoping to create a situation where unethical actions don't compile. there are truly wrong things that will absolutely not work because they are physically impossible. 18:02 < kanzure> i was just picking out quotes from the logs 18:02 < kanzure> for some reason i thought jrayhawk had left a reasonable summary of the shared ethics in here, but instead it was only blurbs about self-agency. oh well. 18:03 < juri_> well, if theres a standard, other than 'what my agency will let me get away with' practiced (voluntarily of course) here, i'd be interested in seeing it. 18:09 < brownies> kanzure: what? 18:10 < kanzure> i am just busy being disappointed in my memory, that's all. in case it's not clear please do not break out into a debate about ethics of bacteria killing you or something. 18:11 -!- Proteus1 [~Proteus@75-163-64-40.omah.qwest.net] has joined ##hplusroadmap 18:14 -!- Proteus [~Proteus@unaffiliated/proteus] has quit [Ping timeout: 276 seconds] 18:18 -!- ThomasEgi [~thomas@panda3d/ThomasEgi] has quit [Remote host closed the connection] 18:37 -!- Charlie [~quassel@74.63.212.44] has joined ##hplusroadmap 18:45 -!- augur_ [~augur@208.58.5.87] has joined ##hplusroadmap 18:46 -!- augur [~augur@208.58.5.87] has quit [Ping timeout: 276 seconds] 18:47 -!- Urchin[emacs] [~user@unaffiliated/urchin] has quit [Ping timeout: 245 seconds] 19:00 -!- augur_ [~augur@208.58.5.87] has quit [Ping timeout: 240 seconds] 19:06 -!- augur [~augur@208.58.5.87] has joined ##hplusroadmap 19:07 -!- Juul [~Juul@199-188-193-9.PUBLIC.monkeybrains.net] has joined ##hplusroadmap 20:00 -!- FooQuuxman [~test@c-98-215-254-55.hsd1.il.comcast.net] has quit [Ping timeout: 245 seconds] 20:05 -!- lichen [~lichen@c-24-21-206-64.hsd1.or.comcast.net] has joined ##hplusroadmap 20:39 -!- plqsmq [~plqsmq@75-136-136-186.dhcp.gnvl.sc.charter.com] has joined ##hplusroadmap 20:41 -!- jk4930 [~jk@p57B72AEC.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has quit [Remote host closed the connection] 20:44 -!- Juul [~Juul@199-188-193-9.PUBLIC.monkeybrains.net] has quit [Ping timeout: 248 seconds] 20:49 -!- plqsmq [~plqsmq@75-136-136-186.dhcp.gnvl.sc.charter.com] has quit [Quit: Leaving] 20:51 -!- Burninate [~Burn@pool-108-18-159-219.washdc.fios.verizon.net] has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer] 20:52 -!- Burninate [~Burn@pool-108-18-159-219.washdc.fios.verizon.net] has joined ##hplusroadmap 20:57 -!- Adifex [~Adifex@71-211-218-4.hlrn.qwest.net] has quit [Quit: Adifex] 21:06 -!- Juul [~Juul@199-188-193-9.public.monkeybrains.net] has joined ##hplusroadmap 21:07 -!- DoktorUnicorn [~DoktorUni@c-76-27-127-22.hsd1.ut.comcast.net] has joined ##hplusroadmap 21:13 -!- Viper168 [~Viper@unaffiliated/viper168] has joined ##hplusroadmap 21:19 -!- helleshin [~talinck@69-61-156-24.ubr1.dyn.lebanon-oh.fuse.net] has joined ##hplusroadmap 21:21 -!- hehelleshin [~talinck@69-61-156-24.ubr1.dyn.lebanon-oh.fuse.net] has quit [Ping timeout: 246 seconds] 21:53 -!- lichen [~lichen@c-24-21-206-64.hsd1.or.comcast.net] has quit [Quit: Lost terminal] 22:02 -!- Juul [~Juul@199-188-193-9.public.monkeybrains.net] has quit [Ping timeout: 268 seconds] 22:27 -!- wozbri [~emankcin@c-76-23-254-105.hsd1.ct.comcast.net] has quit [Ping timeout: 252 seconds] 22:34 -!- hehelleshin [~talinck@69-61-156-24.ubr1.dyn.lebanon-oh.fuse.net] has joined ##hplusroadmap 22:37 -!- helleshin [~talinck@69-61-156-24.ubr1.dyn.lebanon-oh.fuse.net] has quit [Ping timeout: 252 seconds] 22:50 -!- JayDugger [~jwdugger@pool-173-74-74-243.dllstx.fios.verizon.net] has quit [Quit: Leaving.] 22:50 -!- hehelleshin [~talinck@69-61-156-24.ubr1.dyn.lebanon-oh.fuse.net] has quit [Ping timeout: 245 seconds] 22:51 -!- helleshin [~talinck@69-61-156-24.ubr1.dyn.lebanon-oh.fuse.net] has joined ##hplusroadmap 23:16 -!- yashgaroth [~ffffff@cpe-66-27-118-94.san.res.rr.com] has quit [Quit: Leaving] 23:39 -!- hehelleshin [~talinck@69-61-156-24.ubr1.dyn.lebanon-oh.fuse.net] has joined ##hplusroadmap 23:41 -!- helleshin [~talinck@69-61-156-24.ubr1.dyn.lebanon-oh.fuse.net] has quit [Ping timeout: 240 seconds] 23:52 -!- Juul [~Juul@static.3.202.4.46.clients.your-server.de] has joined ##hplusroadmap --- Log closed Sun Jun 16 00:00:58 2013
