| genehacker | anyway you have heard the term gargoyle haven't you? | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| fenn | please shut up | 00:00 |
| genehacker | ok | 00:00 |
| katsmeow-afk | might be able to use the batteries to shield your brain from the microwave transmitters | 00:01 |
| fenn | katsmeow-afk: it was a joke, people walk around with bluetooth headsets all day | 00:01 |
| katsmeow-afk | <cop> i don't care, it's illegal to use a projector to show videos on the back of 18-weelers while driving down the interstate | 00:02 |
| fenn | it is? | 00:02 |
| genehacker | how did you find that out? | 00:02 |
| katsmeow-afk | i am not sure there is such alaw, except as "distracting other drivers" | 00:02 |
| fenn | what if you have a permit for public performance? :P | 00:02 |
| genehacker | have you or anyone you know done such a thing? | 00:03 |
| katsmeow-afk | they use "distracting..." as reason to ticket for blinking lites to warn of speed traps | 00:03 |
| fenn | we used to project porn onto the university library | 00:03 |
| fenn | 50 foot boobies | 00:03 |
| kanzure | so i can get trees from dulwich but i'm not sure how to figure out what directory that tree corresponds to.. | 00:03 |
| genehacker | which university? | 00:04 |
| fenn | indiana university | 00:04 |
| genehacker | hmmm... | 00:04 |
| fenn | number one party school! | 00:04 |
| genehacker | projectors are ubiquitous nowadays | 00:04 |
| fenn | wooooooooooooooooo!!!!!11 | 00:04 |
| genehacker | the library here has lots of flat surface area | 00:05 |
| kanzure | sorry fenn, your 1's just don't feel genuine | 00:05 |
| genehacker | perhaps we can project mind control movies on it | 00:05 |
| fenn | the iu library is this gigantic limestone cube with no windows | 00:05 |
| fenn | like 12 stories tall | 00:05 |
| fenn | (and no lights on the side facing the dorm) | 00:05 |
| genehacker | sounds like it was asking for it | 00:06 |
| genehacker | the library here looks vaguely like texas if you fly over it | 00:06 |
| genehacker | vaguely, because the architects decided to change plans midway through the build | 00:07 |
| fenn | the large teaching building @ iu is shaped like a toothbrush, because a former school of dentistry alumn donated the money for it | 00:07 |
| fenn | or so they say.. | 00:07 |
| kanzure | maybe it's because they want you to stay clean | 00:08 |
| ybit | 00:05 < kanzure> sorry fenn, your 1's just don't feel genuine | 00:12 |
| ybit | :P | 00:12 |
| * ybit needs to automate | 00:12 | |

| ybit | "how sleep deprivation fries your brain" | 00:17 |
| ybit | and on that note, gn | 00:17 |
| genehacker | they found a workaround for that in mice | 00:19 |
| genehacker | an enzyme that reverses mental degradation | 00:19 |
| katsmeow-afk | i wish they'd quit making mice smarter and make humans smart instead :-/ | 00:20 |
| genehacker | the first step is getting it to work in mice | 00:20 |
| fenn | don't be ungrateful; we wouldn't have those NIMH batteries without the supermice | 00:20 |
| genehacker | huh? | 00:21 |
| katsmeow-afk | "that the primary species on Earth began devoting all their time to making smarter mice, which is why it's such a happy mouse planet now" | 00:21 |
| genehacker | oh | 00:21 |
| genehacker | I get it | 00:21 |
| genehacker | the next couple steps involve monkeys and the FDA | 00:21 |
| genehacker | which can take a while | 00:21 |
| katsmeow-afk | the FDA is already run by monkeys | 00:22 |
| fenn | the FDA will never allow human enhancement technologies | 00:22 |
| genehacker | they allowed cosmetic surgery? | 00:22 |
| fenn | surgery isn't under their jurisdiction? | 00:22 |
| genehacker | it isn | 00:22 |
| genehacker | damn, I guess we'll never get OTC adderal and nootropics | 00:23 |
| fenn | huh. "stem cell breast augmentation receives FDA approval" | 00:24 |
| katsmeow-afk | i can just picture that being slipped into bar drinks all over the world | 00:25 |
| fenn | i can just picture that backfiring horribly | 00:25 |
| genehacker | to make drunks smarter? | 00:25 |
| katsmeow-afk | no, bigger boobs on them | 00:26 |
| fenn | brain boobs? | 00:26 |
| kanzure | YES | 00:26 |
| fenn | i've created a monster! | 00:26 |
| genehacker | kanzure you and your attempts to make taq polymerase by horrendously unconventional methods... | 00:27 |
| kanzure | taq titties? | 00:27 |
| fenn | i sense an hplus seminar topic.. | 00:27 |
| genehacker | yeah, those | 00:28 |
| kanzure | none of these python/git libraries make any sense | 00:29 |

| kanzure | dulwich seems to only have Blobs and Trees | 01:25 |
| kanzure | maybe i have to literally switch the branch via dulwich.objects.Repo | 01:26 |

| kanzure | i'm not working on biostream. it doesn't look like it | 12:23 |
| kanzure | skdb does the same thing (and aims to do it better IMHO) and skdb is already free and open source | 12:23 |
| xp_prg | nice | 12:25 |
| kanzure | hm one other solution is that you must always specify the branch name in the ur | 12:43 |
| kanzure | *url | 12:43 |
| kanzure | and as a last resort it tries to find your file in branch "master", but if it thinks you already gave it a branch, then too bad | 12:44 |

| ybit | fenn, kanzure: argh, this is the fourth week since i've been paid last.. supposedly i get paid in a couple of days, which means it should be doubled, we'll see.. but.. this means i won't get around to purchasing the rooms until around thursday. i'll send an email out to you two and marcin just to see if you want to purchase the rooms before then just in case the prices get jacked higher | 15:04 |
| kanzure | you're the only one here with a job | 15:19 |
| fenn | why do you think the price will go up? | 15:20 |

| tim_ | I'm working on building stronger / better / faster / more japanese RepRaps tonight. | 19:53 |
| xp_prg | tim_ how much are the raw materials? | 19:53 |
| kanzure | xp_prg: why not ask #reprap | 19:55 |
| kanzure | don't waste tim_'s time | 19:55 |
| tim_ | xp_prg: depends on the design you're basing your work on, and how much work you're able to do yourself. A makerbot costs ~$750, so that's a reasonable top-end. It can be done for nearly $0 if you have enough of the right sort of junk and tools. | 19:55 |

| kanzure | might want to get that checked out | 20:03 |
| ybit | yeah, it should be the 3rd | 20:04 |
| xp_prg | kanzure want to hear what I heard? | 20:04 |
| ybit | damn, it's going to be an extra $99 -_- | 20:33 |
| ybit | anyway, it will be the same time | 20:35 |

| xp_prg | you can do microfluidic etching on a dvd with the dvd laser! | 21:03 |
| ybit | drazak: care to explain this issue which we've discussed once before? | 21:07 |

| drazak | man | 21:08 |
| drazak | does nobody read what I say? | 21:08 |
| drazak | I post on diybio about this same thing | 21:09 |
| drazak | also people don't understand how it works | 21:09 |
| drazak | lightscribe comes in color | 21:09 |

| drazak | ITS NOT AN ETCH | 21:09 |
| drazak | DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW TO USE GOOGLE OR DO THEY JUST SAY WHATEVER COMES TO MIND | 21:09 |
| drazak | also the diybio thread about it is rediculous | 21:10 |
| drazak | they completely ignored what I said, apparently they think I'm wrong even though I've done research on it | 21:11 |
| drazak | xp_prg: if you have any more questions you can ask my answering service, it's called google | 21:12 |
| ybit | kanzure: i noticed you were working with git yesterday, are you messing with it today? because i don't want to do the same crap you're doing and waste my time | 21:24 |
| tim_ | the assortment of various size nuts, bolts, washers and bearings one collects merely by working on RepRaps is astounding. | 21:37 |
| kanzure | ybit: i'm adding in dulwich into web.py | 21:38 |
| ybit | tim_: you plan on selling some components from your reprap, is there anything that needs to be done to the design before it being shipped, are there fragments that needed to be chipped off, etc.? | 22:13 |
| ybit | i noticed in some videos that the parts looked like that needed a good scraping or brushing before being presented | 22:13 |
| ybit | i'm going to assume that i'm right | 22:14 |
| tim_ | talking about printed parts here - yes, generally holes need a drill bit of appropriate size run through them (by hand works fine), and occasionally sides need to be sanded or cleaned up with a box cutter. | 22:14 |
| tim_ | that's about it | 22:15 |
| tim_ | Both steps could be left as optional (for the recipient to complete)... nothing challenging about it. The only hiccup I could see is the need for a few different size drill bits. | 22:16 |
| ybit | i'm just thinking about how you can automate the entire process from order to shipping of reprap parts | 22:18 |
| ybit | the conveyor belt on the y-axis coupled with a robot hand such as http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QeY_KkZRlDc sounds nice, but how practical, and if it's not practical then what can we do to fix this.. | 22:19 |
| ybit | for drilling holes though, that robot hand would be worthless | 22:19 |
| kanzure | http://mangafox.com/ hm | 22:20 |
| ybit | you don't need someone there to inspect the part before it's packaged, take pictures on all sides | 22:21 |
| tim_ | ybit: it takes so long to print a part that handling time doesn't amount to much. One of mendel's corner brackets takes ~2.5 hours to print. | 22:23 |
| ybit | yeah, but this is also why 5-10 repraps in the lab for part orders would be nice.. and you automate so you can do other stuff, and you're right it's nothing, but if you have, say three hundred to a thousand orders of a certain part, it start to amount to a lot of your time ..i haven't looked into it but i'm not aware of a any diy robot hands that can hold much weight | 22:28 |
| ybit | e.g. i'm looking at the make magazine robot arm and it can only handle 100 grams | 22:29 |
| tim_ | right. I'm working toward that 5 - 10 repraps number for our hackerspace in Holland, MI. | 22:29 |
| tim_ | Right now I'm less concerned with the amount of time it takes me to finish a part, and more concerned with my extruder MTBF. My first one lasted ~ 14 hours. | 22:31 |
| tim_ | with 10 of them, I'd be doing nothing but fixing extruders. | 22:31 |
| tim_ | I'm building an experimental extruder from all-steel parts (mostly gridbeam). Still a pinchwheel, so I can apply much of what I've learned. | 22:33 |
| tim_ | Also doing much experimentation with the heater component. | 22:33 |
| ybit | i think make magazine has done their homework this year and realizing people want lab equipment: http://blog.makezine.com/archive/gift_guides/ | 22:35 |
| tim_ | screw lab equipment, I want a waterjet | 22:39 |
| ybit | yeah, forget the service, i want that machine | 22:40 |

| ybit | wow, $10 | 22:48 |
| ybit | i'll but it for that | 22:48 |
| ybit | would they really let me have it for a little more than $10 though | 22:48 |
| tim_ | I suspect it will go or more. | 22:49 |
