| ybit | anyone looked at the patents for rTMS and its application to treating depression? | 04:10 |
|---|---|---|
| ybit | almightly open rTMS leader, were you planning on using these patents to create the device? | 04:11 |
| ybit | hmm, is Thor the lead in this project now, because I just heard lightning. And now I'm confused, was that a yes or a no?! | 04:12 |
| ybit | lightning/thunder* | 04:13 |
| genehacker_ | I don't think Kanzure is here right now | 04:15 |
| ybit | gracias genehacker_ | 04:16 |

| genehacker_ | well I don't think that can be scaled up to scanning in brains | 04:32 |
| genehacker_ | The new device does not work like a conventional MRI scanner, which uses gradient and imaging coils. Instead, the researchers use MRFM to detect tiny magnetic forces as the sample sits on a microscopic cantilever essentially a tiny sliver of silicon shaped like a diving board. Laser interferometry tracks the motion of the cantilever, which vibrates slightly as magnetic spins in the hydrogen... | 04:43 |
| genehacker_ | ...atoms of the sample interact with a nearby nanoscopic magnetic tip. The tip is scanned in three dimensions and the cantilever vibrations are analyzed to create a 3D image. | 04:43 |
| genehacker_ | maybe a single neuron, but not a whole bunch | 04:43 |
| genehacker_ | hey kanzure, ultrahighres MRI made, only works on small samples though | 05:47 |

| kanzure2 | TechShop is seeking another round of funding, about $600k for machinery, and $2 mil for a "foundational base". Jim Newton doesn't get it. fwd'd to openmanufacturing. | 14:31 |
| kanzure2 | Hi worldmonkey. | 14:35 |
| kanzure2 | http://news.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=09/01/14/015210 Holy shit, my ISP has balls. Yay. | 15:02 |
| kanzure2 | http://heybryan.org/~bbishop/docs/comparison.html a poor comparison of fablab, techshop and emachineshop. | 16:09 |
| genehacker_ | could you arrange that inventory in videogame style? | 16:22 |
| genehacker_ | wow I didn't know e-machine shop did so much | 16:23 |
| kanzure2 | What would videogame style be? | 16:23 |
| genehacker_ | it's a joke | 16:24 |
| genehacker_ | http://www.wowinsider.com/media/2006/02/inventory.jpg | 16:25 |

| kanzure2 | http://www.wowinsider.com/media/2006/02/inventory.jpg | 16:25 |
| kanzure2 | sorry, new interface. | 16:25 |
| genehacker_ | you know supposedly e machine shop has an AI that figures out the manufacturing process | 16:26 |
| genehacker_ | nice comparison though | 16:26 |
| genehacker_ | might be useful if I ever want to get something made in a fablab | 16:27 |
| genehacker_ | I've also been trying to design a lego self-replicating automaton that assembles copies of itself | 16:29 |
| kanzure2 | no, emachineshop gives you this crappy proprietary software interface where you draw up your thingy, and then you select how you want it made from a list. | 16:29 |

| genehacker_ | what are you doing with IE? | 16:40 |
| genehacker_ | I wonder how e machine shop extrudes custom parts | 16:41 |
| kanzure2 | hopefully not manually. | 16:46 |
| genehacker_ | I guess they custom machine the extrusion die | 16:47 |
