kanzuresplicer: I think you should try an experiment where you instantiate a version control system and then fork it and see what forking does.09:34
kanzurethe experiment should take about 5 minutes at most09:34
kanzuresplicer: the idea has already got traction from long before my birth09:35
splicerthis is not forking, it's evolution09:36
splicer(also worked since before you were born)09:36
kanzuresplicer: ok but what I'm saying is that when I say "forking" it has a very particular meaning09:37
kanzureand you can 'experience' this meaning in a more pure way09:37
kanzurethan trying to understand my pathetic and terrible explanations09:37
kanzureyou can experience it by installing a repository and doing it (forking it)09:38
kanzuresee here: http://web.media.mit.edu/~stefie10/technical/illicit_forks.html09:38
spliceryou miss my point09:38
splicermy point is don't tell others to do it, get it rolling yourself.09:39
splicerset up the mother of all repositories, if that's the way you think it should be done... avoid forking09:40
splicerlet others focus on what's important to them09:40

ybithttp://www.linuxworld.com/news/2007/051607-linuxworld-mail-madness.html?page=113:21
ybitSending Templated Mail13:22
ybitHere we venture into the gray area of templates and mail. Is it unethical to use Emacs to compose a large number of personalizable messages to people you know? Beats me -- but it saves a lot of repetitive text entry. Even if you cut and paste, even if you insert registers, even if you use keyboard macros, composing individual messages to lots of people takes a lot of time. That's why I wrote this little snippet that makes it easy for me to compose indi13:22
ybitFortunately, my friends can not only sniff out auto-generated mail but are also the sort to be amused by the Emacs hack behind it. When I used this to confirm the postal addresses of a large number of people (personalizing each message with a note), quite a few friends teased me about Emacs gaining even more artificial intelligence. I had shown them M-x doctor before, and they wondered if that was the logical next step. I also received one intentionall13:22
ybitIf you have friends who are likely to know and laugh at the automation, or your friends don't care if you use tricks like that to keep in better touch, go ahead and use the following code. Please do not use this for evil. 13:22

ybitLink to Gnus messages by Message-Id 13:25
ybitIn a recent thread on the Org-Mode mailing list, there was some discussion about linking to Gnus messages without encoding the folder name in the link. The following code hooks in to the store-link function in Gnus to capture links by Message-Id when in nnml folders, and then provides a link type "mid" which can open this link. The mde-org-gnus-open-message-link function uses the mde-mid-resolve-methods variable to determine what Gnus backends to scan.13:25
ybitIt has only been tested with a single nnml backend, so there may be bugs lurking here and there.13:25
kanzureis that lisp?13:25
ybitThe logic for finding the message was adapted from an Emacs Wiki article. 13:25

ybitBiomedical engineers combine biology, medicine, and engineering and use advanced knowledge of engineering and science to solve medical and health-related problems. Biomedical engineers design massive MRI machines along with the microscopic machines used in surgery. They research and develop prostheses, evaluate the use of artificial organs, and improve instrumentation used in hospitals and clinics.14:29

embraceunitywell15:10
embraceunityi intend to15:10
kanzurewe've been adding legos to skdb recently15:10

embraceunitywhich are close enought to legos15:10

* ybit doesn't understand how college students have money to make a reprap 15:15
kanzureybit: some college students have these things called "scholarships"15:16
kanzurefenn: DisplayColoredShape(shape,'RED')15:16
ybiti have a thing called grant, but even then i only get about 1,500 left over each semester15:16
ybittwo semesters could probably pay for a reprap15:17
kanzureybit: people who get full rides are getting $40k/semester apparently15:17
ybito.O15:17
kanzureI'm sorry15:17
kanzure$40k/year15:17
ybitbut that's for expensive schools15:17
kanzurenot really15:17
kanzurebut that's what I tell myself so that I can sleep at night15:18
ybitno? huh15:18
ybitevergreen state i think is $30k/year15:18
* ybit had considered going there sometime ago15:18
ybitwhen i didn't care about grades15:18
ybitstill don't but now i take it as an insult if i don't get an A15:19
ybitso i tend to bust my arse off15:19
embraceunityi was able to begin my reprap in college, because i have been frugal since the age of 715:22
embraceunityit is in my blood or something15:22
embraceunitybut cmon, repraps are cheap15:23
ybit$3k.. cheap?15:23
embraceunityno15:23
embraceunitymore like 50015:23
embraceunityif you build it yourself15:23
embraceunityand with this z-axis hack im doing15:23
embraceunityit is at least... 50 bucks cheapers15:23
embraceunityhaha15:23
ybitwasn't smari that said that it costs $3k... /me greps15:24
ybit+it15:24
embraceunitythat is totally wrong15:24
embraceunityi mean you can get a completely built one on makerbot15:24
embraceunityfor 2.5k15:24
embraceunitybut most of that is labor15:24
embraceunitythe full kit un-built is a little over 1k15:25
embraceunitybut that is because they are makerbot, and have special laser cut parts15:25
embraceunityi was shipped the 5th batch of reprapped parts15:25
embraceunityhttp://blog.reprap.org/2009/07/repstrapping-open-source-ecology.html15:25
embraceunityhttp://hydraraptor.blogspot.com/2009/07/hydraraptors-second-child.html15:26
embraceunitynot having to pay for those parts15:26
embraceunitybrought the cost down considerably15:26
embraceunitythe only thing that kind of sucked is that i didn't already have a soldering kit or surface mounting kit15:27
embraceunitywhich made it 100 dollars more15:27
ybithmm, grepping fails me15:27
embraceunitybut since im donating this reprap to Factor e Farm, and will begin another one for Jata soon afterwards, and maybe another for me.... im sure the soldering stuff will get good use15:27
embraceunityit is a fixed cost15:27
ybiti originally was thinking it costs $700 or so until i was told by someone who has one that it would costs nearly $3k15:28
ybit..usd15:28
kanzureembraceunity: jata said that a friend is shipping her a reprap 15:28
ybitmaybe that's for the bits and bytes laser cutting machine?..15:28
kanzureshe said that a few days ago actually15:28
embraceunity700 might be correct for someone who doesnt own any soldering equipment, isn't using the z-axis hack, and has high shipping costs15:28
kanzureare you sure that she doesn't already have one?15:28
embraceunitymaybe this is new15:29
embraceunityi havent spoken to her about it in awhile15:29
embraceunityin any event, Mendel will probably be out soon... so hopefully the next one I build will be a sexy version 2.0 one15:32

kanzureI meant the code, not you :p18:25
fenn"Sensitive files including Secret Service safehouse locations, military rosters, and IRS tax returns can still be found on file-sharing networks...18:25
fennIn many cases, that's because federal government employees or contractors installed peer-to-peer software on their computers without paying attention to which documents would be shared"18:25
drazakkanzure: can it pull all the reviews? on mesencyhmal stem cells and then name them via their titles?18:25
kanzuresome slashdotters thought it might be a hoax in an attempt to make up excuses for banning p2p whistleblowing on government networks18:25
fenn" That led some politicians to announce that new federal laws were necessary to stop inadvertent file sharing."18:25
kanzuredrazak: that's the idea.. at the moment it does not download PDFs from google. but it wouldn't be hard to make it do that18:25
kanzuredrazak: take a look at adl:/home/bryan/code/pyscholar/results/18:26

kanzuresome nice discussions happening on zotero-dev18:45
kanzureybit: will you post orgs-mode+gnus+bbds to diytranshumanist?18:46
drazakkanzure: could you parse the requests file so that I could have a section, you could, fenn could, etc, and then have it put them in ~user/public_html/papers ?18:49
drazakin a folder under the  name of the request18:49
kanzuredrazak: which requests file18:50
kanzuretests/requests.txt or /var/www/papers/to-get.txt ?18:50
kanzuredrazak: actually, why not put it in ~user/public_html/papers/requests.txt ?18:50
kanzureand then I'll just look for users that have requests18:50
kanzurenot sure about the "in a folder under the name of the request" part though.18:51
drazakthat'd work18:51
drazakok18:51
kanzureneat18:52
drazakso the request is, say, "mesenchymal stem cells" have it make a folder named mesenchymal_stem_cells and then put the scraped papers in tehre18:52
kanzureI think the request should be more specific18:52
kanzuregimme a sec18:52
drazakinstead of lumping them into ~/papers/18:52
kanzureoh, sure18:53
kanzureyeah there's also /var/www/papers/unsorted/ btw where humans have not ventured yet18:53
drazakthat's a good idea18:55
kanzureok check out adl:/home/bryan/code/pyscholar/doc/proposals/to-get.yaml18:55
kanzurehow about that format?18:55
drazakthere's no such file18:56

drazakneed to pull on the server18:58
kanzureno, I pushed from where I am at the moment to the server18:58
kanzurewhich usually works .. hrm.18:58
drazakwelllllllllllllll it didn't! :P18:58
kanzureok check again18:59
kanzurefor some reason "git status" on adl said "deleted: proposals/to-get.yaml"18:59
kanzureso I had to do "git reset --hard"18:59
drazakwe have to limit it to 10 results?19:00
drazakI wanted all of them :P19:00
drazakthat way I could get them instantly when I'm not at work19:00
kanzureI just randomly typed 10, sorry :p19:00
drazakoh, ok :)19:00
drazakcould 0 be all?19:00
kanzuregoogle does 10 to 100 results per page19:00
kanzurewhy not just say "all"19:00
kanzureinstead of "10"19:00
drazakoh, sounds good19:01
kanzure:)19:01
drazak:)19:01
kanzureon zotero-dev, bruce and I were talking about making a new standard for some scrapers19:02
drazakand the it'll put it into ~$requester/public_html/papers/19:02
kanzurethere should be a separation of the scraper that maps attributes to xpaths19:02
drazakand the it'll put it into ~$requester/public_html/papers/$query/ that is19:02
kanzureand then there should be a separate way to say, "this is how you clean up the data that you harvested"19:02
kanzurebecause typically there are certain special things you have to do with the data19:02
kanzureand in each language it varies slightly differently19:02
kanzurein javascript versus python, the string manipulation routines are different19:03
kanzuremaybe a regular expression would be adequate, maybe nto19:03
kanzure*not19:03
drazakkanzure: requester should be self evident though,  because it should pull the requester from the ~ that the request file is in19:05
kanzureokay19:06
kanzurein yaml, all of these attributes are optional19:06
kanzurethat's the beauty of yaml19:06
kanzureso you don't even need to have a "date" attribute there19:06
kanzurebut if you wanted a reminder for when it was put in as a request, well, there you go19:06
CIA-43skdb: kanzure * rb8dcd0d7fe8c /pymates/models/ (blockhole.yaml peg.yaml): got the rotations right this time I hope19:07

kanzureIan_Daniher: so, what equipment have you built or do you have laying around?21:09
Ian_DaniherOver the past few years, I've obtained 21:09
Ian_Daniher7 100ml beakers, a handful of pyrex testtubes, a 10ml and 100ml graduated cyl, a large selection of vacuum flasks21:10
Ian_Danihera 1L 3 necked flask21:10
Ian_DaniherI'm working on an overhead stirrer and a chloralkali cell 21:10
kanzurethere was this great article once about how to do easy glassblowing "in the name of science"21:10
Ian_Daniherhm21:10
kanzureso, quick question21:11
Ian_DaniherI have a couple dozen 10cm soda-lime glasses21:11
kanzuredo you use linux ever?21:11
Ian_Daniherfor glassblowing special apparatus21:11
fennit's not like you can't just use pyrex measuring cups21:11
Ian_Daniheryes, I use arch linux on my netbook21:11
Ian_Daniherand I use debian on my XO laptop21:11
kanzureIan_Daniher: do you know about "apt-get"? I don't know what arch has. archer, maybe21:11
Ian_Daniherand on my server21:11
Ian_Daniheryeah, I'm familiar with apt-get21:11
kanzureokay I'll take that as a yes21:11
Ian_Daniherand apt-cache21:11
kanzurewell heres the project plan in here21:11
kanzureapt-get but for hardware :)21:11
kanzureapt-get me a damn chemical vapor deposition machine21:11
Ian_Daniherhrm21:12
Ian_Danihercontent management system for FOSH?21:12
kanzurenot really a CMS21:12
Ian_Danihercoupled with a rep-rap type machine?21:12
fennany day now and we'll be able to print instructions for assembling legos :P21:12
fennbut it's general enough to expand to anything21:12
kanzureIan_Daniher: coupled to any type of manufacturing equipment21:12
fennso for instance if you don't have enough legos it will print them out on your reprap21:12
Ian_Daniherhuh21:12
Ian_Danihercool21:12
kanzureso yeah, chemical hardware would be awesome to add to the packages21:13
Ian_Danihervery cool21:13
fennwhat's a 3 necked flask for?21:13
fennall i know is they're illegal in texas21:13
Ian_Daniherany DIY Bio Bostonians in here?21:13
kanzureIan_Daniher: wrldpc and a few others21:13
Ian_Daniherfenn: used for some complex organic syntheses21:13
Ian_Daniherfenn: and, as with most pieces of labware, they're useful for the synthesis of amphetamine-class street drugs21:14
fennis there such a thing as a chemical experiment cell? so you dont have to stick your face right next to the boiling vat of explosive carcinogenic acid21:14
Ian_Daniherautomating chemical syntheses?21:14
fennideally i'd just program in some parameters and watch it go21:15
kanzurewell, there's a few ideas for doing that with microfluidics21:15
Ian_Daniherit's something I have a lot of interest in21:15
kanzurelike "print out a factory on a CD"21:15
Ian_Daniherexcept on a microindustrial scale21:15
kanzureright21:15
Ian_Daniherabove that of microfluidics21:15
kanzureIan_Daniher: do you know about retrosynthetic analysis?21:15
kanzureit's a way of figuring out how to go from "some complex gnarly chemical" to something simpler21:15
* Ian_Daniher googles21:15
kanzureso that you can go from simple compounds to more complex compounds21:15
kanzureso, with the right automated design tools,21:15
kanzureyou could literally "print" out a factory that synthesizes some gnarly chemical21:16
Ian_Daniherhuh21:16
Ian_Daniherthat's a really interesting concept21:16
kanzureit won a nobel prize in the 60s IIRC21:16
Ian_Danihercool21:16
Ian_Danihermy interests have been artificially focused around the synthesis of reagents due to the immense difficulties in procuring chemicals in today's day and age21:17
kanzuremaybe it's easier to have just a few square meters of chemlab than it is to duplicate Dow's hundred thousand acres21:17
kanzureright21:17
Ian_Daniherso the scale I've been studying most is the microindustrial scale of tens or hundreds of MLs21:17
Ian_Daniherstudying/working on21:17
kanzureIan_Daniher: http://adl.serveftp.org/papers/microfluidics/ might be of interest to you.21:18
kanzureMega liters?21:18
fennthat would be macro-industrial21:18
Ian_Daniherml21:18
Ian_Danihermea culpa21:18
kanzureshame on you21:18
Ian_DanihermL?21:18
fennml21:18
Ian_Daniherindeed.21:18
kanzureI'd prefer mega however21:18
kanzureso feel free to do that21:18
Ian_Daniherhaha. I see more merit in multiple ml-scale reactors in each household or lab than I do with a small handful of ML reactors21:19
kanzurepurification seems to be the bottleneck at the moment21:19
fenninstrumentation too21:20
Ian_Daniherthe loss in efficiency for downscaling is partially made up via reduced transportation costs, and a decentralized infrastructure is harder to hurt and signficiantly more conducive to the hobbiest21:20
Ian_Daniherkanzure: why did you ask about distillation apparatus?21:20
kanzurerecent obsession with purification equipment21:20
Ian_Daniherhaha21:20
Ian_Daniherwhy?21:20
kanzurebecause one of our projects in here is to do diy DNA synthesis21:21
fenndistillation is pretty easy21:21
fenni dont think it works for stuff like nucleotides though21:21
kanzureright21:21
* Ian_Daniher agrees21:21
Ian_Daniherreduced pressure steam distillation maybe?21:22
fenni think you need special "resins" whatever that means21:22
kanzurecolumn chromatography should be fine. but distillation was just a side-venture I guess.21:22

fennso, does the lego stuff go in pymates?21:33
kanzureor does pymates go into the lego stuff?21:33
kanzureI think lego->pymates21:33
fennoo that's deep man21:33
kanzureit's only 9 inches21:34
fenntypical philosopher turn you on your head technique21:34
kanzurewere you asking a different question?21:34
fennis pymates supposed to be a general purpose interface compatibility engine?21:34
kanzureyes21:35
fennerm. so, uh. shouldn't the general classes from lego go in pymates, and the rest get put into a new lego package?21:36
fennlego.py i mean21:36
kanzureyes21:36
kanzurelego should probably inherit from pymates.Part21:38
kanzureer, Lego21:38
kanzureand really pymates.Part should eventually become skdb.Part21:38

kanzurefrom pymates.part import Part21:50
fennyou'd put stuff in a separate python file?21:51

fennno i'd rather say from pymates import Part21:52
kanzurewhy would that work if it's in pymates/pymates.py21:52
