00:38 < archels> the Turing test is embodied insofar as any and all higher-level cognition is posited to be based on embodiment
00:39 < archels> (although not by Turing)
00:39 < archels> what were you thinking of--spatial nagivation/manipulation tasks?

08:32 < heath> jrayhawk: zoom out of your terminal if you are wondering if you have more hilights
08:32 < heath> otherwise, use weechat
08:33 < kanzure> ha zooming
08:33 < heath> the only other way is there's a shortcut in irssi for hopping to the next hilighted channel
08:34 < kanzure> one alternative to implementing vertical lists would be to reserve the right-most side of the window bar to be for highlights
08:34 < kanzure> and as more highlights happen they would expand leftwards until they take up the entire window bar (at which point you should probably deal with those highlights)
08:35 < kanzure> any highlighted window that is already in the visible range should probably stay in the visible range and not be moved to the right

11:35 < kanzure> "Interesting article in Nature.  Besides commenting on the incorrect equivalence of OA and online, I also commented on the increasing lack of accuracy and value due to decreasing attention to prior searching and the rise of “Google only” searching. ... 'As numbers of published articles rise, the scholarly review system must adapt to avoid unmanageable burdens and slipping standards, says Martijn Arns.'"
11:35 < kanzure> "The publishing explosion used to be easy to illustrate by walking young scholars past cumulative indices of Chemical Abstracts and Science Citation Index.  There have always been more demands on scholars' time than there are hours in the day."
11:35 < kanzure> "Unlike the commentator, I've spoken to numerous faculty at my institution about this.  More than a few have opted to stop reviewing for commercial publishers (Elsevier, Springer, Wiley, even NPG), and only accept requests to review for scholarly societies.  A substantial number have made similar commitments with respect to their submissions, as well."
11:41 < kanzure> maybe reviews should be split up more topically
11:41 < kanzure> so when a reviewer hits a paper that uses a statistical test to draw a conclusion, he makes some review decisions assuming both that the test is accurate and then that the test is totally broken.
11:42 < kanzure> then that segment gets sent off to someone who does statistics reviews more regularly.
11:42 < kanzure> (or possibly to some generic software tool that reviews the use and applicability of various bad ideas, once common themes and problems are detected and known)
11:43 < kanzure> although this wont stop the "everyone is spending all of their time reviewing and writing papers" problem
11:43 < kanzure> another possible solution is to not have papers reviewed so readily, and instead wait until peers cite the papers in giant bundles and the bundles get reviewed all at once
11:44 < kanzure> even if you decouple academic career metrics from publications i think you will still find this review overload problem
11:46 < kanzure> oh i suppose the review problem is less bad in academia because if the reviewers say it's shit then they can kill it there

Though it travels in a randomly twisted path, it heads straight home when it finds food. However, if the ant is picked up and released some meters to the east, for example, it heads for a location displaced by the same amount to the east of its home nest."

12:23 < kanzure> "The sentience quotient concept was introduced by Robert A. Freitas Jr. in the late 1970s.[7] It defines sentience as the relationship between the information processing rate of each individual processing unit (neuron), the weight/size of a single unit, and the total number of processing units (expressed as mass). It was proposed as a measure for the sentience of all living beings and computers from a single neuron up to a hypothetical ...
12:23 < kanzure> ... being at the theoretical computational limit of the entire universe. On a logarithmic scale it runs from −70 up to +50."
12:23 < kanzure> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sentience_quotient
12:23 < kanzure> i keep forgetting how old freitas must be :p
12:24 < kanzure> "According to Freitas, an alien civilization having their consciousness running on non-biological hardware (such as quantum-mechanical circuits) could have an SQ of 23+, 10 orders of magnitude more than the human SQ. Freitas states that such a gap in SQ "may affect our ability, and the desirability, of communicating with extraterrestrial beings...It may be that there is a minimum SQ "communication gap," an intellectual distance beyond ...
12:24 < kanzure> ... which no two entities can meaningfully converse." [1] For example, an alien civilization may form a Matrioshka brain or a black hole and communicate using neutrinos or gamma-ray bursts at bandwidths that exceed our receiving capabilities."

16:25 < superkuh> Easy to share.
16:25 < nsh> i mooted tabstate as git repo earlier
16:25 < fenn> surely someone's got a export-tabs-to-json plugin
16:25 < kanzure> the reason why i keep tabs open is not because i don't know how to bookmark
16:26 < kanzure> tabs2json is just bookmarking
16:26 < fenn> not if it includes page content
16:27 < fenn> bookmark is usually just url and timestamp (and favicon)
16:27 < superkuh> With Opera sessions it had per-tab history too.
16:27 < superkuh> You could open another person's session file, go to a tab, and see how they arrived there.
16:28 < fenn> i'd like to open my own session file and see what data was on the screen before the website went away forever
16:28 < ebowden> paperbot: http://www.nature.com/neuro/journal/v11/n1/abs/nn2024.html
16:28 < paperbot> http://libgen.org/scimag/get.php?doi=10.1038%2Fnn2024
16:28 < kanzure> i consider an open tab an attempt at hedging the expected disappearance of the page in the near future
16:28 < kanzure> usually because of high-traffic to the target iste
16:29 < kanzure> and because bookmarking requires actually looking at the content to make a better decision
16:30 < fenn> except not really
16:30 < superkuh> Bookmarking requires figuring out *one* place it fits in the folder hierarchy.
16:30 < fenn> or at least remembering canonical tags
16:31 < superkuh> At least in Firefox. Or you can put it in multiple places by appending nonsense anchors "#dafdasf" to make it a unique URL.

16:36 < kanzure> nice, i like the trend of computational neuroscience papers showing up on arxiv
16:38 < kanzure> "There is also evidence of a common cortical algorithm from surgical manipulation. Functional interchangeability has been demonstrated by an experiment in which visual input was surgically rerouted to auditory cortex in neonatal ferrets, and the mature animals were able to respond to visual stimuli, with retinotopic maps and typical visual receptive fields having developed within their auditory cortex (von Melchner et al., 2000). "
16:39 < kanzure> last quote is from "Towards a universal cortical algorithm: Examining hierarchical temporal memory in light of frontal cortical function" http://arxiv.org/pdf/1411.4702.pdf
16:44 < kanzure> "Lennie (2003) found that given its energy usage constraints, less than 2% of the brain's neurons could afford to be significantly active at any given time." well okay, but what counts as active..
16:48 < fenn> Scientists prove you only use 2% of your brain!
16:49 < kanzure> "Ferrier (1874) first mapped the motor areas using direct electrical stimulation. He found that stimulation of specific areas of motor cortex would produce movement in corresponding muscle groups, resulting in a rough somatotopic map. Brief stimulation would produce muscle twitches, while more prolonged stimulation would produce coordinated sequences of seemingly meaningful movements, such as stepping or reaching."
16:50 < kanzure> 1874.. hrm.
16:52 < kanzure> the failure modes described in the "Functions of the prefrontal cortex" section are pretty interesting
16:55 < kanzure> hmm nevermind. this is just a laundry list of things that brains do.
16:57 < fenn> "Suddenly, I was immersed in the brightest light I have ever seen.  I moved my head from side to side and all I could see was bright white light, similar in appearance to arc welding light.  This next part is strange.  I distinctly remember feeling weightless, and that my feet were no longer touching the ground.  For some reason, it felt like a number of seconds transpired, even though I
16:57 < fenn> realize that lightning strikes are instantaneous.  A deafening explosion followed, and I found myself on the ground with the others.  Sean was collapsed and huddled on his knees.  Smoke was pouring from his back.  I rushed over to him and checked his pulse and breathing.  He was still alive.  I put out the embers on his back and elbows and carried him down the path towards the parking lot,
16:57 < fenn> with the rest of the group following.
17:07 < kanzure> huh page 56 describes where exactly which neurons and projections are effected by reinforcement learning
17:10 < nmz787> kanzure: any ideas? http://paste.pound-python.org/show/TfYN7sFEjBTgTGTOzjoo/
17:11 < nmz787> forgot to add there that I am using ndk-r10c on Ubuntu 14.04 and tried with opencv 2.4.9 and 2.4.10 (and the respective versions of the opencv android download)

17:16  * nmz787 looks at that link
17:17 < fenn> you have a line there that says LOCAL_LDLIBS += -llog

17:18 < fenn> maybe add  LOCAL_LDLIBS += -llibopencv_nonfree -llibopencv_features2d
17:19 < nmz787> reading this now
17:19 < nmz787> http://docs.opencv.org/doc/tutorials/introduction/android_binary_package/android_dev_intro.html#ndk-build-cli
17:19 < fenn> to Android.mk
17:20 < nmz787> the weird thing is building the shared libnonfree.so didn't give errors, but was much smaller than the pre-compiled found on some blog
17:21 < fenn> compilation options could be different
17:22 < fenn> optimization often adds to disk size in exchange for speed
17:22 < nmz787> mm
17:22 < nmz787> and I am using a newer version of the library too
17:22 < fenn> did you try adding my line to the makefile?
17:24 < nmz787> yeah here is the result http://paste.pound-python.org/show/GlW157fFZhYfyqJ0oHdz/
17:24 < nmz787> still same
17:24 < nmz787> but i used the rebuild all and verbose options for ndk-build
17:25 < nmz787> it mentions something about your additions at the top
17:25 < fenn> it can't find the libraries
17:26 < nmz787> well the blog said to copy them to the source directory after building them
17:26 < nmz787> which i did
17:27 < fenn> oh, the error is occurring while building features2d so you wouldn't have that library yet
17:27 < nmz787> so the error is silent?
17:27 < fenn> no, i'm just mixed up
17:27 < nmz787> I added your changes to the app's Android.mk
17:27 < nmz787> not the libnonfree build's Android.mk
17:27 < fenn> the error is undefined reference to 'vtable for cv::SIFT'
17:28 < nmz787> oh, this is the blog https://sites.google.com/site/wghsite/technical-notes/sift_surf_opencv_android
17:28 < nmz787> yeah
17:28 < nmz787> when I use his pre-compiled ones it works
17:29 < fenn> precompiled whats
17:29 < nmz787> libnonfree.so
17:31 < fenn> you have two makefiles, Android.mk and Application.mk, yes?
17:32 < nmz787> 2 sets of those
17:32 < fenn> why 2 sets
17:32 < nmz787> one set for building the opencv library, and one for the program that is trying to use those libraries
17:32 < nmz787> to do some image detection and drawing features
17:32 < fenn> -_-
17:34 < fenn> this looks sketchy: LOCAL_SRC_FILES := libnonfree.so
17:36 < nmz787> why? i copied it into the source dir
17:36 < fenn> it's not a source file
17:36 < fenn> maybe "it works" but i have no idea what it's doing
17:38 < nmz787> ah
17:38 < nmz787> I tried copying the .so file to the opencv dir with all the other .so files
17:39 < nmz787> didn't work
17:41 < fenn> is the app supposed to even work on your PC?
17:42 < fenn> "Use "adb push" tools to upload test_sift, libnonfree.so, libopencv_java.so along with a test image to your device"
17:43 < kanzure> adb push works fine with emulated android devices
17:44 < fenn> maybe he hasn't gotten that far yet
17:45 < fenn> debugging cross-compilation over IRC, yay!
17:46 < kanzure> https://github.com/pdiasalmeida/openCVAndroid-ndkSample
17:47 < kanzure> downside is that this person uses eclipse so brace yourself for awfulness

17:47 < fenn> i once tried to use eclipse but my computer couldn't handle it
17:48 < kanzure> you'll have to wait until java bytecode can be JIT converted to thalamocortical inhibitory magic
17:49 < fenn> huh
17:49 < fenn> or i could use gcc and vim
17:50 < fenn> gcj
17:51 < fenn> or i could hire a dominatrix to whip my balls with a branding iron
17:51 < kanzure> i am reading http://psych.colorado.edu/~oreilly/papers/oreillyhazyherdip.pdf so it leaked through (it describes randall oreilly's biologically-accurate simulator, leabra)
17:54 < nmz787> well I found some info on building the complete android opencv libraries, rather than using the precompiled libraries and only compiling the nonfree library myself... I had already compiled opencv myself and have been using it, and the android stuff is compiling now
17:54 < nmz787> the android libs
17:55 < nmz787> so maybe I can make install when it's done, and remove that local_src reference
17:55 < nmz787> in the app's build .mk
17:55 < fenn> you still need that because it references the non-free shared library you built in the previous step
17:55 < fenn> i think all it does is copy it to ibs/armeabi/libopencv_java.so
17:55 < fenn> libs*
17:56 < nmz787> well that's what I'm saying, I'm not /just/ building the nonfree shared lib... i'm building all opencv for android libs (inclduding nonfree)
17:57 < nmz787> so if anything I expect it to work, or crap out even more later
17:57 < nmz787> when I try to build the app
17:57 < nmz787> i didn't even end up geting that $40 tablet, went back today and it was $50 and said screw it
17:57 < fenn> bah
17:57 < fenn> it's still cheap at $50
17:58 < kanzure> you can probably get it for $10 on alibaba
17:58 < nmz787> it would be pretty sweet to control the FIB with my phone though
17:58 < nmz787> i was looking at the arduino USB OTG driver for android
17:58 < nmz787> there was a nice make mag writeup with an app
17:58 < nmz787> http://makezine.com/projects/make-36-boards/android-arduino-led-strip-lights/
17:59  * fenn prepares to be underwhelmed
18:00 < fenn> "we fried a phone" really? really?
18:00 < kanzure> "The glass brain visualization on the upper left projects simulated neural activity into the anatomical locations of simulated brain areas, for easier direct comparison with neuroimaging and other data."
18:00 < kanzure> was this really disputed? "Thus, we reject the notion of a neural code that posits meaning in individual neural signals, and accept the consequence that it is not possible for neurons to rapidly change what they encode — that would just confuse the other neurons (O’Reilly, 2010). Instead, neural representations must be relatively stable over time, to enable a given receiving neuron to properly learn the statistics of the patterns of ...
18:00 < kanzure> ... activity over its inputs."
18:02 < fenn> presumably the phone doesn't power the LEDs so why not run the arduino on that power supply also
18:02 < kanzure> i could maybe accept something about neural ensemble code stuff near inputs, at most
18:04 < fenn> was MAKE always this bad?
18:06 < kanzure> i hear that the first five or so issues don't tend to induce cancer as much
18:08 < fenn> nmz787: i'd recommend ignoring anything those people have to say as they are clearly a) irresponsible b) don't know what they are doing and c) write bad code
18:08 < nmz787> lol
18:08 < nmz787> it works
18:08 < nmz787> good enough to get me started
18:08 < nmz787> maybe
18:08 < fenn> until you plug in the wrong phone and it burns out the usb port
18:08 < nmz787> nah
18:08 < fenn> nah man, NAH!
18:08 < nmz787> that seemed to be their fault for using a non-otg device
18:09 < fenn> it's their fault for doing it wrong
18:11 < kanzure> https://lucien0maverick.files.wordpress.com/2014/07/squidward1.jpg
18:11 < kanzure> "Moving down a level in the hierarchy, the equivalent of posterior cortex in the affective domain is the basolateral amygdala (BLA), which is anatomically at the same level as the hippocampus in what is known as the “archicortex” or ancient cortex. The BLA is densely interconnected with the OFC and the ACC, and it is known to encode both US’s and CS’s."
18:11 < kanzure> death by acronyms
18:15 < nmz787> fenn: ok so how do I find all the opencv ldlib inlcludes I need? is that what pkgconfig does?
18:17 < fenn> this sounds like some awful redhat thing
18:17 < nmz787> (opencv compiled successfully with nonfree as part of it, so now I shouldn't have to reference any local modules, I would assume I should be able to just reference the opencv libs dir at once, since it has them all)
18:17 < fenn> sure, okay
18:18 < nmz787> now it's just complaining about all the opencv calls :P
18:18 < fenn> obviously it can't find the libraries
18:19 < nmz787> how did you come up with -llibopencv_features2d
18:20 < fenn> i made it up
18:20 < nmz787> how can i find the rest with that syntax?
18:20 < kanzure> ld
18:20 < kanzure> ldd
18:20 < nmz787> but where does the path get specified?
18:20 < kanzure> LD_SOMETHING_PATH
18:20 < kanzure> probably LD_LIBRARY_PATH
18:20 < kanzure> or LD_LOAD_PATH
18:21 < nmz787> oh, I have to export that?
18:21 < fenn> this is android crap
18:21 < kanzure> android linux probably has a few default places to find shared libraries

23:20 < nmz787> wait
23:20 < nmz787> let me try again
23:21 < nmz787> that time seemed more like a minute
23:22 < nmz787> ok started fresh, and there are timestamps on the logs

23:23 < nmz787> so I guess 44 seconds
23:24 < nmz787> but it definitely seemed much faster to find keypoints between two images and print their offset, like a few FPS
23:26 < nmz787> this is the run_demo c++ function http://paste.pound-python.org/show/bg5vDq0cU3WIzBfB1xnB/
23:26 < nmz787> let me find the example that comes with opencv
23:26 < fenn> only needs a few keypoints to do that
23:27 < fenn> the real beef is in the GPU or whatever it's called in a mobile processor
23:27 < fenn> i know people have done GPU SIFT on a mobile device, but how...
23:28 < fenn> too many layers of semi-intentional obfuscation
23:30 < nmz787> I wonder if I was using SURF then

23:30 < nmz787> yeah I don't think I compiled GPU opencv, if that exists for my phone
23:31 < nmz787> there is some way to change what instruction set it uses, which may support higher performance

23:37 < fenn> hmm i may have misunderstood.. it was from the oxford active vision group, they had some papers like "Simultaneous 3D Tracking and Reconstruction on a Mobile Phone" and "Fast Feature Detection with a Graphics Processing Unit Implementation"
23:38 < fenn> but these are different projects

23:41 < fenn> .title http://aut.researchgateway.ac.nz/handle/10292/7991
23:41 < yoleaux> GPU accelerated feature algorithms for mobile devices
23:41 < nmz787> anyway I was using the demo from the opencv samples directory
23:42 < nmz787> whichever one used the baboon image
23:42  * nmz787 sleeps
