drazakmmm elisa and pcr10:14
drazakAT THE SAME TIME BITCHES10:14
drazakI forgot how much I can get done if I spend a whole day at the lab10:14
drazakI can run the gel for the pcr today, perfect10:15
genehackerdamn10:15
genehackerthat's productive10:15
drazakand I can go out to lunch while my elisa incubates and my pcr runs10:15
drazak:D10:15
kanzuretwiddling your thumbs while the pcr runs isn't what i call being productive :)10:34
ybitany67878480: madison is about one hour east of me, right beside huntsville. i must have slept through the storm.10:35
* ybit is off work today for columbus day :P10:37
ybitthink the bosses were taking off to do something today, so they needed me to. you know it's not very important if google doesn't change their logo :)10:38

ybitwhat do you guys do away from the computer? do you allot some time for play?10:40
fennno. fun is prohibited10:41
ybithehe, seriously, i feel like i'm unproductive by just sitting at the computer 24hr/day, my mind starts to wonder and i lose motivation to do what it is that i started out to do10:42
ybitso i thought that maybe splitting my day into chunks would help, 3hrs of productive work, 1.5 hours of playtime away from the computer, repeat 3x10:43
fenndoes anyone else find it ironic that they only broadcast "sunrise earth" around dawn localtime10:43
kanzureno we just find it sad10:43
fennybit: try tai chi10:44
ybitfenn, thanks for the reminder, i forgot to look that up. some guy @ a hackerspace was mentioning that to me. very interesting guy who graduated from g.tech a long time ago studying a.i. and worked at nasa ames10:45
ybithe was also big into chinese medicine10:45
ybitfenn: but what do you do?10:46
ybitalso, some guy gave me an email address to some transhumanist girl in washington or maybe it was oregon, i should probably email her and get her in here 10:46
ybitbkero, drazak, kanzure, what about you guys?10:49
ybitdrawing on his 35 years of training in qigong and his western scientific background as a physics professor and PhD in ME...10:54
ybithttp://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=7268914786991911921#10:54
ybitspiritual enlightment..well that just ruined it10:54
fennybit: cry myself to sleep, mostly10:56
fennqigong is all about spiritual crap10:57
fenntai chi is strictly practical, unless you're american10:57
kanzureybit: s/wonder/wander/ ?10:57
fennybit: also it's quite possible you have an unproductive environment.. TV going, people interrupting or even just in the same room can be distracting10:58
fennor IRC that blinks at you whenever some idiot says something10:59
kanzurei feel like i'm tripping over myself when writing code with django10:59
kanzuredjango is not pythonic, i'm sorry10:59
fennanyway computers are time sinks, so you probably are wasting your life if you try to use them meaningfully10:59
fenndjango sucks11:00
kanzurei have all these hacks11:00
kanzurewhat are these people thinking though?11:00
kanzurethere's so much hype around this11:00
fennwhat are you thinking? why are you using it?11:00
kanzureif i wanted to hack together spaghetti code, i could just spit out bullshit php11:00
kanzurei'm using it because people have recommended it to me i guess11:00
fennhow about something like cherrypy11:00
kanzurewhat happened to pyjs and pyjamas-desktop?11:01
fennthats just for fancy UI desktop metaphor bullshit11:01
fennmaking HTML is altogether different endeavor11:01
fenn(imho)11:01
kanzurei looked at it the other day and it wasn't what i expected11:02
kanzurei thoguht it had some way to generate gtk guis from something, and then generate html from that same something11:02
fennit's basically python bindings to google web toolkit11:02
kanzure*thought11:02
fennand it's really slow, which i guess doesn't matter really11:02
ybiti'd always thought that if i were to use a python web app framework, i'd go with pylons.11:16
ybitfenn: crying yourself to sleep doesn't sound like a fun activity :P11:16
ybiti don't have blinking lights or beeps on this computer, i get to highlighted messages when i feel like it11:17
ybit+for IRC11:18
drazakkanzure: I wasn't really twidling my thumbs, I did some of the ELISA and then ate lunch11:33
drazakboth are noble causes11:33
ybitmore suggestions for acitivities which help to refresh the mind?11:38
ybiti don't advocate it, nor do i plan on doing either, but the day after being high or spending the entire day gaming, you feel like such as waste of humanity, the next day you (or at least i) spend the entire day being productive11:39
fenndon't take it for granted11:40
fenni can go weeks without doing anything productive :P11:41
drazakI can't go more than a few hours without doing something productive11:41
bkeroybit: sure11:43
ybitbkero: go on..11:43
bkeroybit: Invite her in here?11:54
ybit:P12:06
ybiti thought you were about to comment on 10:49 < ybit> bkero, drazak, kanzure, what about you guys?12:06
drazakwhat was all that about12:06
drazakI missed the question12:06
drazak:D12:07
ybit10:40 < ybit> what do you guys do away from the computer? do you allot some time for play?12:07
ybit10:42 < ybit> hehe, seriously, i feel like i'm unproductive by just sitting at the computer 24hr/day, my mind starts to wonder and i lose motivation to do what it is  that i started out to do12:07
ybit10:43 < ybit> so i thought that maybe splitting my day into chunks would help, 3hrs of productive work, 1.5 hours of playtime away from the computer, repeat 3x12:07
drazakI dunno man12:08
drazakI just do whatever crap I have to do whenever I have to do it12:08
drazakI set timers12:08
drazak"need t4o change antibodies in an hour"12:08
ybiti think the problem here is that i'm not seeing progress. i probably should use org-mode more thoroughly to chart out my progress. right now, i'm disappointed in that i don't see many projects being completed. 12:10
drazakdude12:10
drazakI don't even know what projects I'm working on12:10
drazakI come in and every time dr. lee changes his mind12:10
ybitwhen i mention productivity, i'm referring to coding, designing, experimentation, and reading/acquiring knowledge 12:11
drazak"lets work on x" next week "lets work on y" the week after "I wanted to look at Z" the week after "lets loook at X again"12:11
kanzuregoalism is over rated12:12
ybitbut i suppose there are more ways to be productive, that's all i'm listing atm.12:15
ybitdrazak: i suppoe what you are saying is you just do and don't think too much into how productive you are12:16
ybitkanzure: and you are saying that becoming too goal orientied can waste in itself, aka meta-rot12:16
ybitbe wasteful*12:16
fenn<- goalie12:16
fenni was the star of my soccer team in first grade12:17
drazakif you have like 6 goals that you work on relatively simultaneously then you're nmot being wasteful12:17
kanzuredon't goalies *stop* goals from being achieved?12:17
fennkanzure: why do you have to be so negative!!!12:18
kanzuremaybe you were a bad player12:18
ybithe was the star for the other teams ;)12:18
fennit's true... i made it all up12:18
fennthose bastards never kept any records.. how am i supposed to brag about my accomplishments if they won't even publish my victory?12:19
ybitthey published my stats online and then deleted them12:19
* ybit had one of the top 5 batting average in the southeast junior olympic league at one point :P12:20
ybityay! i can brag now and look idiotic, w00t12:20
ybitmore braggin? okay. i had a baseball scholarship and lost it because i was showing off my dunking skills and ruptured a disk in the lower back region, probably the best thing that ever happened to me12:23
fennhttp://fennetic.net/irc/album_0093.jpg  see see i'm a real human, honest12:24
ybit..because i realized i wouldn't be playing sports and started pursuing my other passions: science.. read all i could and got up to speed on a lot of stuff those months while lying in bed, it helped that the local library would bring me books whenever i needed them (was a ref. librarian at the time of killing my back)12:25
ybithehe12:25
ybityour pads are on backwards :P12:25
ybitwere you in the 'special' league ;)12:25
* ybit also played soccer growing up12:26
kanzurewe all played soccer?12:27
ybitit doesn't matter, but at that age, you should be playing with a size 3 ball12:27
kanzure.. why?12:27
ybitparents pushed for it12:27
* ybit guesses12:27
fennbecause they didnt do kickball in little league?12:27
fenni think i started playing soccer with the international grad students from the chemistry department12:29
fennpostdocs and stuff, at summer barbecue12:29
ybiti remember mentioning some really cool science projects to my parents several times and each time i was told "oh that's nice, shouldn't you be outside playing some ball" no lie. 12:31
ybitwanted to build a hoverboard once when i was ~7 and my grandfather just lied to me instead of explaining to me that he didn't know.. i eventually figured it out and wanted to plug a small motor to the skateboard, and they wouldn't go with it. 12:32
ybitbut you can't blame the parents for everything, i could have found interests in other things i suppose, which i did: videogames > computers > programming12:32
* ybit did have a chem set growing up, and a basic electronics kit as well. so it all wasn't put to waste, just not very efficient12:34

ybitkanzure's presenting a better way of doing thing things imho, though it simply is just an alternative to what you recommended drazak. there are over 900 people on the list, i'm sure some will prefer your method drazak14:39
drazakI'm not saying to nto add the functionality to add programs and all that14:40
kanzurehttp://www.moonsociety.org/moonbasesim/moonbase_analogs_net.html14:40
drazakI'm saying that her idea of making ti select different running variables based on the primers is retarded14:40
kanzure"A Team of Advisers, including from the Moon Society, is assisting the Air Force in Chile in designing a modular analog research team to simulate activities on both Moon and Mars in the Atacama desert near the growing complex of world-class observatories there. This collaboration has been arranged by TATA, The Astronaut Teacher Alliance based in San Diego, already involved in planning outreach for the new Inca del Sol Observatory.14:41
kanzureThe command module will be the wingless fuselage of a surplus Hercules C130B cargo plane. Additional modules may be soil-shielded Quonset huts (simulating buried cylinders). The design is in flux, but they have a firm target date for initial deployment of March 2010. "14:41

kanzurehttp://heybryan.org/chats/chats/agaboogamonger_Mar5th02005.html14:43
kanzurebut don't bother reading it, it's really not that good14:43
kanzureanyway the plan was to go to the atacama and rebuild most of civilization from scratch14:43
kanzureit was part of a philosophy (calxism) that roughly translates as "goalism"14:44
kanzureso i and two others (sean, kurt) werew orking on this full time for a while14:45

ybitcalxia.com is dead14:50
kanzurebut srsly, thanks lazyweb14:50
kanzureyeah it's been dead for a while14:51
ybitso this calxism is?14:51
kanzurewhat?14:51

kanzureyep14:55
kanzurebasically if i was to go back now and redo the idea of calxia i'd basically say "ok implement a space habitat on earth, using skdb as the backend"14:56
kanzurethat's basically the idea.14:56
kanzurebut i got into the calxia idea before i was thinking straight about skdb14:56

kanzurethe last few comments get pretty sophisticated20:52
kanzurefenn: it wouldn't be the end of the world if different developers put their skdb packages in different repositories20:56
kanzurebut are you going to insist that all packages that i make be git?20:57
kanzureer be in a git repo20:57
kanzurei'm trying to sort out the architecture needed for the website20:58
kanzuredefinitely a gallery of projects, and the documentation pages etc. would be under revision control20:58
kanzurebut those projects/packages could just as easily be on other wikis somewhere20:58
kanzuremaybe the web front should be a front-end like aptitude except for hardware?20:58

genehackerthat's why21:34
ybitso kanzure, you are switching to hatta-wiki?21:36
fenngit can be converted to hg and vice-versa, but it's not something you want to do all the time21:37
ybitfenn: have you two talked about switching? 21:37
fennespecially because the conversion will probably get flubbed by us amateurs all the time21:37
ybitdjangit to hatta?21:37
fennybit: no, i don't even know what hatta is, besides samrose likes it21:37
fennall i remember is not being terribly impressed21:38
ybitokay then, what's all this conversion stuff for?21:38
fenn"are you going to insist that all package tht i make be git?"21:38
fennsmari thinks it's OK for no two developers to speak the same language21:39
fenni think that's a bunch of crap21:39
kanzurei'm kind of embarrassed about how terrible djangit's codebase is21:40
kanzurecherrpy is nice and sweet21:40
fenninsecure as hell though21:40
kanzurebut hatta-wiki is hg-only. although it wouldn't be too hard to replace its 6 calls to mercurial21:40
fennis hatta good? i mean comparable to dokuwiki?21:40
kanzureanyway, why did we need a web front?21:40
kanzureno21:40
fennso ignoramuses can contribute21:41
kanzurewhat do you mean "contribute"21:41
fenndata21:41
kanzurea front end to a package validator/checker?21:42
fennright21:42
kanzureok what else is on thes ite21:42
kanzure*the site21:42
fenna list of packages, renderings of cad files, links between packages and idioms21:42

fennuser pages, wiki-like howto crap21:43
kanzuredoes it bother you that we don't actually have any content to display on said site?21:43
fennlook at the todo list21:43
fennyes21:43
kanzurerighto21:43
ybitso hatta or djangit?21:43
fennit's not an either or choice21:44
kanzureyour git repo is compatible with both21:44
kanzure(er, more or less)21:44
ybitright, but the site is using which?21:44
fenndon't ask me21:44
kanzurei'm perfectly ok fixing up djangit a bit more, it's just going to look like shit21:45
kanzurethe advantage of this is that other django apps can be dropped in to add "functionality" to the site21:45
ybityou tell me which one to work on21:45
kanzureyou're working on something?21:45
kanzuredjangit, fix its bullshit21:45
ybitabout to21:45
ybitare you sure that's what we want?21:45
ybitit may be quicker to use hatta if it's had more development time21:46
fenni don't see anything particularly alluring about django, but kanzure seems to think it's worth something21:46
fennall i really want is a html/python template system21:46
kanzureoh?21:47
kanzurei used to hack together these websites in php that were absolutely terrible21:47
kanzurebut they were mostly a templating system21:47
kanzurewith cracks and crannies filled in with database queries21:47
ybitfenn: /me is in the need of such a system as well21:47
kanzuremysql_connect, mysql_select_db, mysql_query, mysql_fetch_array, is all one ever needed to know.. back in 2002.21:48
fennsome html_repr method wouldn't be too awful?21:48
ybitbut i don't want to work on two systems, so i'll implement whatever it is that fabgalaxy implements :)21:48

ybitaka nerds implementing 'mad science'-like gal21:49
ybiter, weird science*21:49
kanzuredo we really not have any useful content for a website?21:50

fennguess i'm a perv.. i have a thing for chii21:50
kanzurei tried to get into chobits once,21:50
ybitplenty of content21:50
kanzurebut it was hard without reading the manga or watching the anime21:50
kanzureybit: where?21:50
ybitthe interwebs21:50
kanzureno i mean in skdb21:50
fennyeah i tried playing with computers but using a mouse or keyboard is just too hard21:51
kanzure?21:51
ybitkanzure: you ready to walk me through the directory tree?21:51
ybitnow i have something to do, get paths.py working21:52
kanzureit's mostly self-explanatory21:52
kanzuredo any of the folders not make sense?21:52

fennpi/2 radians is from threads.py right?22:05

fennpaths.py shouldn't even be using geom.Transformation22:08
