fennwhat disk is wiped?18:22
kanzurewubi installs a disk but as a file under NTFS on windows18:52
kanzureso if you're stupid enough to boot into Windows and shutdown improperly, you have this non-zero chance of losing the file beyond the ability of the fsck equivalent18:52
-!- xp_prg [n=xp_prg3@98.234.52.78] has quit ["This computer has gone to sleep"]18:53
fennare you talking about the tablet computer?19:04
kanzureno, the (working) laptop19:33
kanzureso essentially I've lost my zotero collection but other than that everything was backed up19:34
kanzureexcept my edits to adesign, but they don't matter much anyway19:34
fennmy condolences19:38
fenni suppose the answer is to not use wubi19:38
kanzurethat, and another "back up more often or else" lesson19:39
fennthat only goes so far19:39
kanzureI still haven't given you Nature yet19:39
fennmy 'git everything' and clone between all your computers seems to be working fine so far19:39
kanzureI noticed.19:39
fennof course i only have two computers19:40
fenndoesnt work so well for huge data though because git will duplicate everything in the archive itself19:40
fennso i guess something like rsync is for that19:41
fennalso i figured out why i was having problems with kde.. turns out you have to do 'apt-file update' to get relevant current results19:41
fennso i was missing the package that contained the file i wanted19:42
kanzureto search for files within the kde packages?19:42
fennwithin any package19:42
fennfor example i was looking for 'systemsettings' which is the new kde control panel; it's in package 'systemsettings' big surprise19:42
fennbut apt-file didnt see it because it's a new package19:42
fennbtw did you know apt-get had tab completion for package names?19:43
fenni think i should sleep over there tonight (or try to) so you can kick my ass in the morning and drag me to the bus stop19:45
fennoh wait is it one of those 31 day months19:45
fennnevermind19:45
kanzuretoday is saturday19:46
fennwell tomorrow won't be any different19:46
kanzureI was going to invite you over to watch anime for a few hours this morning19:46
kanzureor at least "stuff I didn't select that happens to be on television"19:46
kanzureI don't mind you hanging around, although I do have to figure out my dinner tonight19:47
kanzurethis is more complicated than catching a Raiku19:47
-!- jm [n=j@p57B9FAA2.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #hplusroadmap19:51
kanzure*this coming morning (1 to 5)19:54
fennunderstood19:54
fennthese industrial monitors kinda suck19:54
kanzure?19:55
fenneh. my lcd for the tubputer died beyond my ability to resuscitate it again, so now i'm using a panel from some industrial dumpster in cleveland19:56
kanzureI have a 15 inch CRT in the closet that my mom would love for me to magically get rid of19:56
kanzureI was using it to monitor HTTP requests to the server previously19:57
* kanzure wanders19:57
fennfare thee well19:57
kanzurehuh I just got a job doing pcr primer design21:36
kanzureI wonder why21:36
fennhow did that work?21:43
fennand isnt that completely automated now anyway?21:43
-!- kanzure- [n=chatzill@cpe-72-177-123-170.austin.res.rr.com] has joined #hplusroadmap21:45
fennleon neihouse is such an idiot.. i can't believe he's serious21:46
kanzure-someone from infochimps.org named "flip" emailed me looking for people interested in doing contract work with 150 GB+ sized data sets21:46
kanzure-also something about bayesian filtering engines is involved21:46
fenn"my grand new plan to store all US nuclear waste on barges floating IN THE PACIFIC OCEAN"21:46
kanzure-he's apparently a local21:46
fennbayesian filtering has something to do with pcr primer design?21:46
kanzure-no, this is from the guy named "flip"21:47
kanzure-"someone from infochimps.org named 'flip' emailed me .."21:47
kanzure-the pcr primer design stuff is one of joseph's gigs re: the money he has spent aquiring the TAMU $10 thermocycler patent bullshit21:47
kanzure-http://twitter.com/mrflip21:48
fenni must admit i'm surprised there's a patent on a $10 thermocycler21:49
kanzure-so guido wants to do some open source software community stuff with the thermocycler project21:50
kanzure-his plan was revealed at biobarcamp 2008, blah blah blah21:50
kanzure-cheap primer design and shipping of the thermocyclers to people in third world countries (or anybody else for that matter)21:50
fennthat's wonderful~~21:50
kanzure-what?21:51
fennwell. um. is there anything more than just buzzword stew?21:51
kanzure-money21:51
fennok what am i missing here? primer design is automated. $25 pcr is easily made from local materials21:52
fennthere's really no profit in it, so why would non-profits be putting money into it?21:52
kanzure-his non-profit isn't.21:52
fennisn't what?21:53
kanzure-isn't putting money into it21:53
fennthen where's the money coming from?21:53
kanzure-I think he's loaded or something21:53
fennok let me rephrase that21:53
fennwhy would someone donate money to build and distribute cheap pcr machines?21:54
fennbtw i hate these names "$25 thermocycler, $10 thermocycler"21:55
kanzure-not sure I remember the evil scheme that he has here21:55
kanzure-he might not have one since I don't remember one21:55
fennoh i guess i should have flown out to biobarcamp to bask in his godliness21:55
fenndo you have any links or anything?21:56
kanzure-so I think I need to start keeping better track of all of these jobs that I'm supposedly doing or something21:57
fenni assume it's related to this somehow http://freedomofscience.org/?page_id=2221:57
fennbut that's about ELISA21:57
kanzure-nothing is popping up from my inbox21:57
fenni remember that email from diybio: noalaignorancia21:58
kanzure-huh?21:59
fennhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/1438909269952584867321:59

kanzure-"a la" ?22:00
kanzure-although that's french22:00
fenntypos arent entirely rational22:00
kanzure-at least my typos have a reasonable IQ22:01
* fenn briefly considers starting a new mailing list named 'oh-pun duh-velopment' which would function as a buzzword sink22:07
kanzure-how would you attract buzzers?22:07
fennby advertising our latest buzzwords of course22:07
kanzure-free open source hierarchical bayesian ajax network systems 22:08
fennusing the latest in social semantic desktop software22:08
kanzure-and commons-friendly totalitarian ethics engines22:08
fennmeshwork.. yeah22:09

fenni wonder about these "people" who are following 300+ twitters22:10
fennis there some sort of twitter priority filtering bayesian ajax network system?22:10
fennmr. flip is following rauchwerk22:13
kanzure-hm.22:13
fennwhatever that means22:13
kanzure-rauchwerk isn't exactly publicizing himself much22:14
fenni think infochimps' data hoard has grown beyond its puny web interface's ability to handle22:20
fenn'page 1 of 8483 showing data fields'22:20
fennah well at least they recognize the problem and claim to be working on solutions22:21
kanzure-flip describing his project: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IIuqJ1QZpvI22:26

drazak_back from prom23:27
