flat. Let us also assume that we can ignore the first order effects of accelerating enormous masses at huge speeds (which are likely to produce enough heat to melt the whole thing). Instead, we now have a layer cake with the Earth's crust on top of a cylinder of mantle on top of a cylinder of core. The thickne... 10:05 < kanzure> ...ss under the flat top is a third of the original radius, 2123 km. f we assume the world is now roughly cylinder-shaped the gravitational acceleration at the centre will be weaker than on Earth--there is less stuff below your feet to pull you down, so gravity will be about 30%. However, near the edge of the flat Earth gravity will be weaker and point downwards towards the centre - it will be s... 10:05 < kanzure> ...lanted relative to the surface. This spells trouble: essentially the edge regions are like immensely high mountains, and the air will rush down toward the centre of the flat surface. Crazy storms and suffocation will ensue. A bit more slowly the oceans will be arriving. And after that, the rocks. There is a maximum height for mountains in a given gravity set by the strength of rocks. On Earth ... 10:05 < kanzure> ...it is about 10 km.

Anyone know anybody I can pay to design one? 22:21 < kanzure> maaku: tryfind a qr stamp on etsy or something 22:22 < kanzure> oh, programmable. 22:22 < maaku> Yeah, I want to send a string and have it raise and lower 25x25 pistons 22:24 < maaku> I thought this would be a thing for sure, but either it is not or I failed at google. 22:24 < kanzure> try asking in #reprap 22:24 < kanzure> they should have someone. 22:25 < maaku> Portable QR code printers (on little stickers), yes, but this use case requires an old style stamp not a sticker. 22:25 < maaku> ok 22:27 < kanzure> nothing on thingiverse.. wouldn't expect this one to be, though. 22:28 < CaptHindsight> what would you use for actuators? 22:28 < kanzure> maaku: CaptHindsight is inkjet wizard, if you could form your question to ask about inkjets, i am sure you would have a solution quickly 22:28 < CaptHindsight> heh, I think inkjets are <5% of what I usually do 22:29 < kanzure> that just makes you 20x the wizard 22:30 < CaptHindsight> a programmable QR printer would have to work similar to a braille display 22:30 < kanzure> you could use a braile display probably 22:30 < kanzure> they sorta suck though. and they cost a lot. 22:31 < kanzure> (they are the sort of devices that are "WindowsCE required".) 22:31 < CaptHindsight> was working on a low cost one using wax + graphite actuators 22:32 < CaptHindsight> http://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/0960-1317/20/8/085039/meta 22:32 < kanzure> .title 22:33 < yoleaux> An in situ heater for a phase-change-material-based actuation system - IOPscience 22:33 < CaptHindsight> not sure why maaku needs it to be mechanical 22:34 < CaptHindsight> maaku: how often does the code change? 22:36 < CaptHindsight> https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/41pABlB2jzL.jpg with a lock for the pins after they are set 22:37 < CaptHindsight> the piezo actuators in the braille displays are pricey 22:41 < kanzure> we need to find an asteroid made out of piezo and then mine that thing. 22:41 < CaptHindsight> pzt is actually pretty inexpensive 22:42 < kanzure> before i sleep, just want to pose a question, which is whether anyone knows what precisely is the method that fat earthers are proposing to convert the earth into flat disc shape? 22:42 < kanzure> *flat earthers 22:42 < maaku> Sorry, kid started fussing. 22:43 < CaptHindsight> I like fat earthers better 22:44 < CaptHindsight> maaku: no problem, that goes on about another 30 years 22:44 < CaptHindsight> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amplified_piezoelectric_actuator 22:45 < maaku> So I'm more the business and software guy for this project. The only real requirement is that it be from 0.5 to 2cm square, and apply red ink to paper. 22:45 < maaku> Configuring a new QR code can take up to ~1s, and it is done fairly infrequently (human use, not industrial) 22:46 < CaptHindsight> maybe a dot matrix printhead? 22:46 -!- JayDugger [~jwdugger@47.185.237.246] has quit [Ping timeout: 260 seconds] 22:46 < CaptHindsight> but they are only 9 pins 22:47 < CaptHindsight> sorry 24 pins, so close to the 25 you need 22:47 < maaku> Maybe, but the specific use case is traditionally done with analog stamps with a special type of ink. It would be preferable to replicate the physical act of stamping with an ink well, if possible. 22:48 < CaptHindsight> fast robot arm 22:49 < CaptHindsight> with a small porous tip 22:49 < CaptHindsight> load the ink through it 22:50 < maaku> There's a 24x24 QR code standard. Maybe I could start there at least for a prototype 22:50 < CaptHindsight> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5E5-jNhNDrY 22:51 < kanzure> (presumably the flat earthers wish to consume the planet's core for its heat and resources, i can't think of a reasonable place to put it once you flatten out the surface of the planet) 22:52 < CaptHindsight> kanzure: maybe a sandwich? 22:52 < kanzure> like a giant calzone? alright i'm too tired for this. 22:52 < CaptHindsight> yeah 22:52 < kanzure> good night people 22:53 < CaptHindsight> maaku: or a fast delta https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0-Kpv-ZOcKY 22:54 < CaptHindsight> but over a short distance you could use a Cartesian setup with linear servos 22:57 -!- yashgaroth [~yashgarot@2606:6000:cd4d:3300:f5e0:f867:a11d:8d52] has quit [Quit: Leaving] 22:57 < CaptHindsight> https://youtu.be/xVfJThhBC20?t=44s this is about the size of your code 22:57 < maaku> That's more or less what I was imagining in my head, but cost is probably prohibitive. Needs to be under a few dollars in parts, ideally 22:57 < CaptHindsight> good luck 22:58 < maaku> Yeah that's why I'm interested in hearing alternative methods :) 22:58 < CaptHindsight> something that falls off a truck 22:59 < CaptHindsight> that just happens to do what you want is a few $$ 23:00 < maaku> Oh sorry I mean a few $$ at the scale of producing these by the millions 23:00 < maaku> Could be $50 or more for small batches 23:01 < CaptHindsight> https://s3-eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/centaur-wp/theengineer/prod/content/uploads/2014/05/16131100/TE_Braille_reader.jpg 23:01 < CaptHindsight> ^^ possible using this method if you can stamp by hand 23:03 < CaptHindsight> printed resistors on a pcb with a polymer film covering the drops of paraffin+graphite 23:03 < CaptHindsight> still take a few seconds for the mixture to phase change 23:12 -!- poppingtonic [~brian@unaffiliated/poppingtonic] has joined ##hplusroadmap 23:46 -!- archels [charl@toad.stack.nl] has joined ##hplusroadmap 23:46 < archels> http://spectrum.ieee.org/robotics/artificial-intelligence/henry-markram-talks-brain-simulation 23:56 -!- poppingtonic [~brian@unaffiliated/poppingtonic] has quit [Ping timeout: 260 seconds] --- Log closed Thu Jun 22 00:00:29 2017
