| kanzure_ | I wonder why this is taking so long to compile. | 00:14 |
|---|---|---|
| kanzure_ | Hi world. | 00:16 |
| wrldpc | hey bryan. | 00:17 |
| wrldpc | bryan, do you game? | 00:18 |
| kanzure_ | Anything in particular? | 00:18 |
| wrldpc | mmorpg | 00:19 |
| kanzure_ | Nah, I haven't played an MMORPG in years. | 00:19 |
| wrldpc | play Go? any history with game design? | 00:20 |
| kanzure_ | Lots of history with game design. | 00:20 |
| kanzure_ | Love affair with game design. | 00:20 |
| wrldpc | :D http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Go_board_game | 00:20 |
| kanzure_ | Ah, it's hanging on the perl compile. | 00:33 |
| wrldpc | I am cultivating my programming ability. | 01:30 |
| kanzure_ | Are you? | 01:43 |
| wrldpc | Very .. slowly. | 01:51 |
| wrldpc | I am, by and large, uninitiated into such pursuits. | 01:52 |
| kanzure_ | You're initiating only now? | 01:53 |
| wrldpc | LOL no. | 01:54 |
| kanzure_ | Then why did you just say that you aren't initiated? | 01:54 |
| wrldpc | I took a Pascal class in high school LOL ... Basic in elementary .. hahaha ... | 01:54 |
| kanzure_ | You took classes? | 01:54 |
| wrldpc | aye | 01:54 |
| kanzure_ | I don't think classes count. | 01:55 |
| wrldpc | agree | 01:55 |
| wrldpc | it's all personal pursuit? | 01:55 |
| kanzure_ | Yes, but no, there's some sort of reality distortion field caused by 'formal education'. | 01:59 |
| bkero | http://learnyouahaskell.com/chapters | 02:00 |
| bkero | Learn yourself a haskell for great good. | 02:00 |
| wrldpc | copy | 02:01 |
| wrldpc | i agree, bryan. | 02:01 |
| wrldpc | "zencat: Women can go thru cubic stacks of money, especially with the princess complex" LOL! | 02:05 |
| wrldpc | hey splicer | 02:13 |
| wrldpc | How does haskell set me up for perl? they seem functionally equivalent. | 02:14 |
| kanzure_ | Haskell equivalent to perl? | 02:14 |
| kanzure_ | Advantages of perl include http://perlmonks.org/ and http://cpan.org/ and http://slashdot.org/ .. what does haskell have? Atoms? | 02:15 |
| bkero | Er | 02:16 |
| bkero | perl is kind of functional | 02:16 |
| bkero | Haskell is a functional language. Perl is mostly procedural. | 02:16 |
| kanzure_ | I don't know if he was referring to it in formal terms. | 02:16 |
| bkero | If you've ever written object-oriented perl you'd know what I'm talking about. | 02:16 |
| bkero | I'm learning haskell so I can write better perl. :) | 02:17 |
| wrldpc | cool. | 02:17 |
| wrldpc | thank you. | 02:17 |
| wrldpc | who programs the programmers? | 02:17 |
| bkero | Metaprogrammeres | 02:18 |
| kanzure_ | http://heybryan.org/quotes.html | 02:18 |
| bkero | http://bacongeek.com/ | 02:18 |
| kanzure_ | "I am programmer, program, and that which is programed." | 02:18 |
| wrldpc | I hate myself. | 02:18 |
| kanzure_ | Re: metaprogrammers, see Metacoders.mp3 | 02:18 |
| kanzure_ | wrldpc: ? | 02:18 |
| wrldpc | heh | 02:18 |
| bkero | bkero has not been recorded in quote. | 02:18 |
| kanzure_ | bkero: Pardon? | 02:19 |
| wrldpc | I can't fit these blocks into the holes!!! ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh | 02:19 |
| wrldpc | ;P | 02:19 |
| wrldpc | epic | 02:19 |
| kanzure_ | Was there a bkero quote that I should have on therE? | 02:20 |
| kanzure_ | *there? | 02:20 |
| bkero | Of course | 02:20 |
| bkero | I'm great. | 02:21 |
| Splicer | hi wrldpc.. sorry for the lag | 02:30 |
| Splicer | hehe.. not here any more I see | 02:30 |
| bkero | Of course we are. | 02:42 |
| wrldpc | They're arguing about cars in #electronics. | 02:47 |
| wrldpc | I'm like, "none of these cars can even hover." | 02:47 |
| bkero | Do you know anything about electronics and programming? | 02:48 |
| bkero | I'm looking to get the contents of a register from my chipset. | 02:48 |
| bkero | I have a memory offset for the register, but I can't find out where the memory region of the chipset begins. | 02:49 |
| fenn | is there a datasheet for the chip? | 02:51 |
| fenn | should be several hundred pages of dry technical detail | 02:52 |
| bkero | Looked it over | 02:52 |
| fenn | celldesigner.org looks pretty cool, why dont we just use that | 02:53 |
| Splicer | Interesting licence: http://celldesigner.org/license.txt | 03:02 |
| Splicer | It looks like a very cool piece of software though | 03:03 |
| bkero | Warning: Shitty license alert. | 03:15 |
| wrldpc_ | What's a name of clear fluid that is highly acidic? | 03:16 |
| fenn | wrldpc_: "acid" | 03:18 |
| wrldpc_ | heh | 03:18 |
| fenn | they're mostly clear | 03:18 |
| wrldpc_ | fenn you're so trite ;-) | 03:19 |
| fenn | hydrochloric, acetic, sulfuric | 03:19 |
| bkero | lysergic | 03:20 |
| kanzure_ | fenn: I wouldn't mind stealing the methods in their source. | 03:22 |
| gene_ | http://arxiv.org/abs/0810.3035 | 03:24 |
| gene_ | hasn't been tried yet | 03:24 |
| gene_ | wonder if it works | 03:24 |
| gene_ | HOLY CRAP | 03:24 |
| gene_ | http://arxivblog.com/?p=684 | 03:25 |
| gene_ | screw biobricks | 03:25 |
| gene_ | let's play with amoebas | 03:25 |
| fenn | what does slime mould have to do with biobricks? | 03:25 |
| gene_ | it looks like they got some sort of circuit?? | 03:26 |
| * fenn waves hands frantically | 03:26 | |
| fenn | so does every other lifeform | 03:26 |
| gene_ | I guess neither you or I understands the paper | 03:27 |
| Splicer | "A few years ago a Hungarian team showed that slime mold was able to find the shortest way through a maze." | 03:28 |
| Splicer | I think I want to try with snot | 03:28 |
| gene_ | amoeba are fairly smart | 03:30 |
| gene_ | maybe more so than your snot | 03:30 |
| kanzure_ | What the hell is smart? | 03:33 |
| Splicer | I wonder what use an amoeba in the wild would have of remebering intervals | 03:33 |
| kanzure_ | Argh. VH1classic ad for "help us cure autism" sponsored by KISS .. grumble grumble | 03:33 |
| kanzure_ | Anyway, | 03:33 |
| kanzure_ | I was going to complain about something else, but then I got distracted with circuit handwaving. | 03:35 |
| Splicer | (I thought Jenny McCarthy had already cured autism) | 03:38 |
| kanzure_ | Who now? | 03:38 |
| Splicer | She used to be in playboy I think | 03:38 |
| Splicer | ..married to Jim Carrey | 03:38 |
| kanzure_ | Anybody know about Cloud Cult? | 03:45 |
| Splicer | Cloud Cult-Chemicals Collide: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KMskKuG6Vsc | 03:50 |
| fenn | i dont see what is so amazing about marcin's 4 page word doc | 04:27 |
| kanzure_ | "open source ecology" mention on openmanufacturing? | 04:27 |
| fenn | ya | 04:29 |
| kanzure_ | me either. I just ignored it. | 04:29 |
| kanzure_ | it looked like a money request | 04:34 |
| fenn | it's "gimme $20k and i'll give you a fork() button" | 04:37 |
| fenn | in this case the process you're forking is "how to make the tools to make a brick press" | 04:38 |
| kanzure_ | if it forks down to the root, and he has evidence of this, then that's grounds for starting a discussion of course | 04:38 |
| fenn | he doesnt have a working design yet(?) | 04:38 |
| kanzure_ | sounds like a pre-emptive hostage scenario | 04:38 |
| fenn | rational street performer protocol, sloppily executed | 04:39 |
| fenn | hey, how big is books/bio? | 04:58 |
| * kanzure_ checks | 05:03 | |
| kanzure_ | 3.8 GB | 05:04 |
| drazak | kanzure_: can you send me the rest of the chem books, when you get a chance? and probably the bio books? | 05:07 |
| kanzure_ | drazak: http://heybryan.org/books/chem/ | 05:07 |
| kanzure_ | drazak: http://heybryan.org/books/bio/ | 05:07 |
| kanzure_ | How do I symlink a dir? Regular ln never works for this. | 05:10 |
| drazak | ln -s | 05:10 |
| kanzure_ | ah, ln -s | 05:10 |
| kanzure_ | crap | 05:10 |
| drazak | although, iirc | 05:10 |
| kanzure_ | drazak's answer doesn't count because of alt-switching-lag. | 05:10 |
| drazak | apache doesn't recognize symblinks all the time | 05:11 |
| drazak | I had issues with it a coupla times | 05:11 |
| drazak | ok, I'm going to rape your upload later tonight | 05:14 |
| fenn | you need Options FollowSymLinks in the directory with the symlink | 05:15 |
| fenn | everyone gang-bang kanzure's server! | 05:15 |
| gene_ | ewww | 05:17 |
| gene_ | gross | 05:17 |
| drazak | fenn: yeah | 05:19 |
| drazak | fenn: it decides to work without that sometimes | 05:19 |
| kanzure_ | fenn: yes, I have FollowSymLinks turned on | 05:28 |
| kanzure_ | fwiw. | 05:28 |
| kanzure_ | http://heybryan.org/books/ now has an index. small slice of the goods. | 05:29 |
| kanzure_ | ybit: http://heybryan.org/books/ | 05:36 |
| * kanzure_ is fixing the SPOF issue. | 05:36 | |
| ybit | hi kanzure | 05:37 |
| ybit | that's a new link to me, thanks | 05:38 |
| kanzure_ | It's not quite everything. Feedback welcome .. I cna go dig around for Other Stuff. | 05:41 |
| gene_ | anyone know a cheap photoresist? | 05:53 |
| gene_ | and where to get a lot of copper coated polymide? | 05:53 |
| kanzure_ | Added some more to the directory index. Have fun. | 05:54 |
| drazak | gene_: if you're making circuit boards, glossypaper+laserprinter is almost as good as photoresis, and cheaper | 05:56 |
| wrldpc_ | Awesome! You have fusionanomaly .. is this updated anymore? | 06:03 |
| kanzure_ | I suspect atomjack is dead. | 06:04 |
| kanzure_ | He never replies to emails, and his site doesn't appear to be updated. | 06:04 |
| wrldpc_ | Did Aubrey ever answer your question about Sci-Fi? | 06:04 |
| kanzure_ | Scuse me? | 06:04 |
| wrldpc_ | http://heybryan.org/books/Aubrey/kanzure_questions.html | 06:05 |
| kanzure_ | Oh, no. | 06:05 |
| kanzure_ | The Damien Broderick thing. | 06:05 |
| wrldpc_ | nd. My interactions with him .. aye yea | 06:05 |
| wrldpc_ | My interactions with him went from cool to clipt ... if that's even a word. | 06:06 |
| wrldpc_ | Which it's not. | 06:06 |
| wrldpc_ | clipped. | 06:06 |
| kanzure_ | ? | 06:07 |
| kanzure_ | I don't grep. | 06:09 |
| drazak | kanzure_: the word is grok | 06:10 |
| kanzure_ | grep as in parse | 06:10 |
| kanzure_ | grok != parse | 06:10 |
| drazak | http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/grok&usg=AFQjCNH0ShPvJHH4oOtXs3j47Hggpo_1Lg | 06:11 |
| wrldpc_ | He was very GTTFP I could be in the lab right now, in fact, I probably am. | 06:12 |
| wrldpc_ | http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/grok | 06:13 |
| kanzure_ | Even more added. | 06:20 |
| kanzure_ | http://heybryan.org/books/fakemon/ heh' | 06:32 |
