| ybit | how are you two checking out each others' branches (sounds gay and dirty doesn't it)? | 00:04 |
|---|---|---|
| ybit | each pushes to master and selectively pulls what he wants.. | 00:05 |
| katsmeow-afk | ybit, if a couple people show up at the airport to pickyou up...... | 00:05 |
| ybit | ..? | 00:05 |
| ybit | at some point, i don't see how this model is sustainable when you have someone like myself committing stupid changes | 00:07 |
| ybit | 691:om: skdb tutorials | 00:07 |
| ybit | sound more like a wishlist than a bug | 00:07 |
| ybit | s/wishlist/todo | 00:08 |
| fenn | ooh can i be the shifty looking fellow with a caterpillar mustache and patent leather shoes? | 00:10 |
| katsmeow-afk | who taps his feet with a wide stance? | 00:10 |
| CIA-33 | skdb: kanzure * r c9a172b /.be/bugs/099b9ca7-eca6-4bc1-a3a8-9cbf1417a7e9/values: more bug reports | 00:11 |
| kanzure | ybit: just be sure to pull before you commit (not before you push) | 00:11 |
| fenn | anyway the branch thing.. if you have a lot of people all committing to the same branch and you hate each other, that's a recipe for disaster; a management problem not a technical problem | 00:11 |
| fenn | you can merge branches later if necessary. if you think your changes are dumb and awful and yet you feel the need to commit to someone else's repo, put it on a branch | 00:12 |
| fenn | cherry picking is more for bug fixes and such | 00:12 |
| kanzure | ybit: technically the bug id for that is just 691, the ":om:" is some attribute info i think | 00:13 |
| fenn | why is the bug id 691? | 00:18 |
| fenn | gah | 00:19 |
| fenn | be is not backward compatible | 00:19 |
| fenn | why didn't you use the version in debian? | 00:21 |
| fenn | wtf | 00:21 |
| fenn | *pout* | 00:21 |
| kanzure | here we go.. | 00:21 |
| fenn | can i file a meta bug report? | 00:22 |
| kanzure | only between the hours of 1 and 2 pm | 00:23 |
| fenn | also i'm not sure what the advantages of a bug tracker are over the current todo list | 00:23 |
| fenn | or writing unit tests | 00:24 |
| fenn | oh well. /me resigns to the fate of seeing a bunch of .be/51b1ossadf09gf0klk24kl every fommit | 00:24 |
| fenn | s/fommit/pull/ | 00:24 |
| kanzure | fommit :) heh | 00:24 |
| kanzure | blah all these people are dudes: http://www.last.fm/user/kanzure/neighbours | 00:25 |
| kanzure | and they're all from sweden, finland and germany | 00:26 |
| genehacker | that's where the techno is at | 00:26 |
| ybit | yup | 00:26 |
| fenn | the only chicks who dig heavy metal live in seattle | 00:27 |
| genehacker | ugh one of them is a furry | 00:27 |
| fenn | hehe a hot pink mustache furry | 00:28 |
| kanzure | this guy scares the shit out of me: http://userserve-ak.last.fm/serve/126/1079595.jpg | 00:28 |
| genehacker | is that a song from k-on in your playlist? | 00:29 |
| ybit | http://ybit.ath.cx/skdb/ is where my git repo lies for anyone who wants to watch me fuck it up in a somewhat live viewing | 00:29 |
| genehacker | it is | 00:29 |
| genehacker | I am disappoint | 00:29 |
| fenn | kanzure: that's not very scary | 00:29 |
| ybit | that guy reminds me of a person whom we couldn't figure out if it was a dude or girl.. then we saw boobs.. but we still weren't convinced | 00:30 |
| kanzure | what is k-on? | 00:30 |
| fenn | a time-like virtual particle? | 00:30 |
| genehacker | dear god | 00:31 |
| genehacker | it's an anime that you should avoid | 00:31 |
| fenn | hm i seem to have slipped into a time line in which physicists havent yet discovered kaons.. | 00:31 |
| fenn | oh there it is, nevermind | 00:32 |
| kanzure | ybit: please run git update-server-info | 00:32 |
| genehacker | dang it how the heck do I play songs on last.fm | 00:32 |
| genehacker | nvm | 00:32 |
| ybit | kanzure: done | 00:32 |
| genehacker | I get it | 00:32 |
| ybit | katsmeow-afk: thanks for mentioning the minerva reefs | 00:32 |
| genehacker | FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFuuuuuuuuu | 00:32 |
| genehacker | you listened to the K-on theme | 00:33 |
| katsmeow-afk | <curtsey> | 00:33 |
| genehacker | oh dear | 00:33 |
| kanzure | ybit: doesn't look like you've committed anything | 00:33 |
| katsmeow-afk | there's similar reefs ~100 miles west ofSan Diego | 00:33 |
| katsmeow-afk | well, similar in use, but diff geology | 00:33 |
| kanzure | i don't think last.fm is actually doing any computations here | 00:34 |
| kanzure | it seems to be basically what you've listened to the most | 00:34 |
| kanzure | but if you've listened to a million songs from another category, they don't count for anything | 00:34 |
| kanzure | unless they're from the same artist | 00:34 |
| katsmeow-afk | Begg Rock , Islas San Benito , Cotes Bank, Tanner Bank, are all volcanic | 00:34 |
| kanzure | and this determines who your "neighbors" are | 00:34 |
| genehacker | oh that was when you listened to anime radio | 00:35 |
| genehacker | you're safe | 00:35 |
| katsmeow-afk | Alijos Rocks etc | 00:35 |
| genehacker | heh that creepy dude looks like that guy from dethklok | 00:35 |
| kanzure | squiggles? | 00:35 |
| kanzure | er | 00:35 |
| genehacker | yeah that one | 00:36 |
| kanzure | skiwsgaar skwigelf | 00:36 |
| katsmeow-afk | and if you want a site with more ocean wave energy than you can possibly handle, there's a seamount 60ft under about 20 miles outside the usa eez, south of Alaska | 00:36 |
| kanzure | skwisgaar | 00:36 |
| genehacker | wave energy=FUCKING AWESOME | 00:36 |
| kanzure | hah: http://naturesgraffiti.com/wp-content/uploads/2006/12/metalocalpyse.jpg | 00:36 |
| genehacker | it's so extractable | 00:36 |
| katsmeow-afk | there's a few tothe west of Vancouver too, but they are "protected" | 00:36 |
| fenn | high altitude kites blow wave power out of the water!!!11 | 00:37 |
| genehacker | actually they don't | 00:37 |
| katsmeow-afk | genehacker, 220 miles south of Alaska, we are talking 30ft waves are the norm | 00:37 |
| genehacker | it's just that wavepower isn't everywhere | 00:37 |
| genehacker | seems dangerous | 00:37 |
| katsmeow-afk | i said it was more than you cold handle | 00:38 |
| katsmeow-afk | oh, and it's cold | 00:38 |
| genehacker | the waves | 00:38 |
| fenn | which is cooler: surfing, or wind surfing? | 00:38 |
| genehacker | dang it, I think I experienced some | 00:38 |
| katsmeow-afk | you cold have megawatts of power to keep warm with if you cold keep the wave-energy-collector from falling to bits | 00:38 |
| genehacker | wave power's cheaper than high alt wind at this point | 00:38 |
| fenn | wtf how could it possibly be cheaper | 00:39 |
| genehacker | the rubber snake approach might work | 00:39 |
| fenn | a kit is made of cloth and strings | 00:39 |
| ybit | so what's the itinerary for dec. 3? options are: a.) show me the shop b.) show me something interesting at ut.austin c.) lounge around grubbing on whatever is available or a really sweet restaurant (yo fenn, raw vegan buddy o'pal.. anything you and kanzure care for)... or go over the last option go over the presentation.. or all of it.. | 00:39 |
| genehacker | it generates so much | 00:39 |
| genehacker | or it's on par with high altitude wind | 00:39 |
| katsmeow-afk | and, there's a methane leak from the ocean floor off LA, enough i figure for 4 megawatts electrical just by anchoring a hood over the seep and attaching a hose tothe surface | 00:39 |
| ybit | s/the last option// | 00:39 |
| genehacker | heh | 00:39 |
| genehacker | you could also get some from the petroleum seeps | 00:40 |
| genehacker | where petroleum naturally seeps to the surface | 00:40 |
| katsmeow-afk | or sunken ships, some have been slowly leaking since ww2 | 00:40 |
| ybit | the only guy who teaches systema ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Systema ) is in l.a. btw | 00:40 |
| genehacker | and feeds whole underwater ecosystems | 00:40 |
| fenn | i vote for fenn sleeping in then waking up at the last minute and packing madly | 00:40 |
| ybit | the only who who i can find that teaches in the u.s. | 00:40 |
| ybit | +guy | 00:41 |
| genehacker | whole ecosystems powered by petroleum | 00:41 |
| * katsmeow-afk nods | 00:41 | |
| genehacker | dammit why do we have to be shooting carbon into the atmosphere | 00:42 |
| genehacker | why can't we just make it into stuff | 00:42 |
| katsmeow-afk | i wonder what a floating barge off LA could do with 4 megawatts | 00:42 |
| genehacker | power a 4 megawatt pirate radio | 00:42 |
| genehacker | power a 4 megawatt supercomputer | 00:42 |
| katsmeow-afk | genehacker, same reason the humans here burn so much garbage the air here smells like a medical plastics incinerator | 00:43 |
| fenn | drive itself somewhere better than LA | 00:43 |
| genehacker | where? | 00:43 |
| katsmeow-afk | yea, where? | 00:43 |
| genehacker | then they are burning them inefficiently | 00:43 |
| katsmeow-afk | of course they are, it's open piles on the ground, or burn barrels with no vents for air to make actual "burning" occur | 00:44 |
| genehacker | that's bad | 00:44 |
| genehacker | that' | 00:44 |
| fenn | i wonder why kite-based sailboats never got huge in the 1700's | 00:45 |
| genehacker | why? | 00:45 |
| katsmeow-afk | as long as the populace is of this caliber, there's o way to stop the powerco burning coal to pump it in as much as they want | 00:45 |
| genehacker | control systems, lack of cheap strong lightweight fabric, inertia | 00:45 |
| katsmeow-afk | fenn, commercia schedules and the cost of hiring a sailing crew that contribues best 30% of your propulsion | 00:45 |
| genehacker | burning plastic is how you make nasty dioxins | 00:45 |
| fenn | sailor = control system, already had cheap strong canvas, which is light enough | 00:45 |
| katsmeow-afk | genehacker, I KNOW | 00:46 |
| katsmeow-afk | DAMNED caps lok | 00:46 |
| genehacker | it's ok | 00:46 |
| katsmeow-afk | i gotta pop all those extra keys of all these new keybds | 00:46 |
| fenn | one huge kite has got to be easier to deal with than those ridiculous masts and fifty little sails everywhere | 00:46 |
| genehacker | what do you do about the kite during a storm? | 00:47 |
| katsmeow-afk | until you haveto fish it out of the water | 00:47 |
| fenn | naw it has little boats as landing gear | 00:47 |
| genehacker | anyway, I sure your average sailor of back then isn't going to trust a kite | 00:47 |
| katsmeow-afk | "the sail's taken leave of th emast, cap'n!" | 00:48 |
| genehacker | masts work pretty well | 00:48 |
| genehacker | have you ever been sailing fenn? | 00:49 |
| katsmeow-afk | nppe, never sailed a fenn | 00:49 |
| katsmeow-afk | oops | 00:49 |
| ybit | http://google.com/trends?q=open+hardware&ctab=1680238952&geo=all&date=all | 00:49 |
| ybit | http://google.com/trends?q=open+source+hardware%2C+open+hardware&ctab=0&geo=all&date=all&sort=0 | 00:50 |
| * katsmeow-afk sailed lil Scorpions and Sunfish in the mid 1970's | 00:50 | |
| katsmeow-afk | on the ocean | 00:50 |
| katsmeow-afk | out of sight of land, even | 00:51 |
| katsmeow-afk | "well, the sun is going down, and that's west, that's land, i think i'llfollow it,, fast" | 00:51 |
| ybit | odd, linux has a downward slope as well: http://google.com/trends?q=linux&ctab=0&geo=all&date=all&sort=0 | 00:51 |
| ybit | i don't know what to take from that when we know that the adoption of gnu linux is increasing | 00:52 |
| genehacker | never sailed? | 00:53 |
| fenn | fenns are bad places to sail.. lots of muck and tangly stuff | 00:53 |
| genehacker | last.fm sucks | 00:54 |
| genehacker | it doesn't have any of the obscure music I listen to | 00:55 |
| fenn | why do you need last.fm if you listen to obscure music | 00:55 |
| genehacker | I'm playing around with it | 00:55 |
| fenn | just set your music player to shuffle | 00:56 |
| genehacker | on last.fm? | 00:56 |
| fenn | no, the one you have previously stocked with your obscure music | 00:57 |
| * katsmeow-afk has decided to go get pizza for tomorrow, and chocolate, eggnog, PB&J , since it's 1am and there's likely parking places | 00:57 | |
| genehacker | I CAN'T STAND THE RANDOMNESS | 00:57 |
| genehacker | errr... I don't know how to torrent safely | 00:57 |
| fenn | katsmeow-afk: i endorse your decision | 00:57 |
| fenn | do me a favor and stand around in the aisle staring at nothing for 20 minutes | 00:58 |
| genehacker | why? | 00:58 |
| fenn | optionally, lay on the floor and make dust angels | 00:58 |
| fenn | because it's 1 am and i can do whatever i want | 00:58 |
| genehacker | pics or it didn't happen | 00:59 |
| fenn | it didnt happen | 00:59 |
| genehacker | ok | 00:59 |
| * fenn wonders if he feels like riding 3 miles in the dark to see if les is in the shop so i can get my components | 01:00 | |
| genehacker | why ride in the dark when you can make it not dark with some horrendously bright 1 watt LEDs | 01:01 |
| fenn | because my horrendously bright 1 watt LEDs are in the shop | 01:01 |
| genehacker | are they luxeon LEDs? | 01:01 |
| fenn | i forget. maybe | 01:01 |
| genehacker | are they white or are you going with green-blue because that's what humans see best | 01:02 |
| fenn | white of course | 01:03 |
| fenn | green-blue is just obnoxious.. washes out your night vision | 01:03 |
| kanzure | i have a horrendously large flashlight somewhere around here | 01:03 |
| genehacker | but it let's you see so much more | 01:04 |
| genehacker | halogen or something? | 01:04 |
| fenn | for beating people with mostly | 01:04 |
| genehacker | or is it a nuclear fusion incandescent illuminator | 01:04 |
| fenn | i have a pocket flashlight that is 5-10x brighter than that | 01:05 |
| genehacker | components for what? | 01:06 |
| fenn | wearable | 01:06 |
| genehacker | the beagleboard case? | 01:06 |
| fenn | and so i dont have to chop up my only keyboard | 01:06 |
| genehacker | don't you have keyboard pants? | 01:07 |
| genehacker | or is that what you are making? | 01:07 |
| fenn | i need to get my batteries and charger and soldering iron and probably a zillion things which i am never going to remember | 01:07 |
| fenn | havent figured out what to do for the beagleboard case yet | 01:08 |
| genehacker | if you have access to the UT soldering lab... | 01:08 |
| fenn | i'm not going to a 'soldering lab' | 01:08 |
| fenn | you kids are so spoiled you dont even know what to do | 01:08 |
| * fenn grumbles | 01:09 | |
| genehacker | I tried tinning it but the solder just won't stick | 01:09 |
| genehacker | you could cast it out of aluminum | 01:09 |
| fenn | just stop while you're ahead ok? | 01:10 |
| genehacker | ok | 01:10 |
| * genehacker sleeps | 01:10 | |

| genehacker | what torrent client is best? | 19:11 |
| fenn | that's awful subjective | 19:14 |
| fenn | utorrent, ktorrent, azureus (piggy) | 19:14 |
| genehacker | which one is "safest" | 19:15 |
| genehacker | say I lived in dystopian britain where if they detect you using bittorrent you disappear | 19:18 |
| genehacker | *dystopian future britain | 19:18 |
| QuantumG | almost all of them support encrypted torrents now | 19:19 |
| genehacker | ok | 19:19 |
| QuantumG | for some reason most of them don't have it on by default though | 19:19 |
| QuantumG | no idea why | 19:19 |
| fenn | it's not that it's not on by default, but it also allows unencrypted connections | 19:30 |
| genehacker | port forwarding is only important for speed right | 19:41 |

| fenn | like a reverse lasso | 19:53 |
| katsmeow-afk | while the cable winds up 1000 times, so the human cargo is spun to death as they are winched up to the plane | 19:54 |
| genehacker | I don't want to deliver humans this way | 19:54 |
| genehacker | the picture explains a lot | 19:55 |
| genehacker | oh dear there's a gibson novel about what a virtual japanese singer that people want to marry? | 19:56 |
| fenn | i never read it | 19:57 |
| genehacker | and now we have a virtual japanese singer... | 19:57 |
| katsmeow-afk | shades of Simone the movie about the virtual actor | 19:58 |
| fenn | i hope you're not talking about the vocaloids | 19:58 |
| katsmeow-afk | bs : Trivailo's cable system could help take the pressure off, since it would allow almost any large aircraft to collect water and spray it from the air or deliver it to remote sites without the need to land. | 19:59 |
| fenn | hatsune miku and friends | 19:59 |
| katsmeow-afk | the "cable", the hose, wold change weight etc drastically as it filled with water, and the hose iteslf wold be so long you'd be unable to suckwater up thru it | 19:59 |
| genehacker | call them by their proper name, fancy voice synthesis software | 19:59 |
| genehacker | I think they want to use buckets | 20:00 |
| katsmeow-afk | o | 20:00 |
| katsmeow-afk | nevermnd | 20:00 |
| genehacker | dammit why does newscientist have to suck | 20:00 |
| fenn | it's kind of amazing how bad the vocaloids sound, compared to even basic TTS software | 20:00 |
| genehacker | the cable system becomes unstable if you drop the thing the cabl is holding | 20:00 |
| genehacker | TTS software? | 20:01 |
| fenn | text to speech | 20:01 |
| fenn | like festival | 20:01 |

| kanzure | gustavo got back to me today about booleano | 20:07 |
| kanzure | there's a depends_on() function apparently | 20:08 |

| fenn | i dont get what this brain implant chip has to do with fMRI | 20:13 |
| katsmeow-afk | the mri erases it, praps | 20:15 |
| genehacker | what brain implant? | 20:20 |
| genehacker | MRI ease installation | 20:21 |
| katsmeow-afk | the 8087 i have always wanted | 20:21 |
| genehacker | implants need to be MRI safe | 20:21 |
| QuantumG | if you could fully utilize an 8087 wired into your brain I expect it would actually be impressive | 20:22 |
| katsmeow-afk | that's why i aimed low, by now, the 8087 should run a lifetime on an AG-13 cell, yet be quite fast enough | 20:24 |
| QuantumG | how about that fully utilize part? | 20:25 |
| katsmeow-afk | if i cannot use it, i don't want it | 20:25 |

| katsmeow-afk | granted, i do not expect to say the numbers flowing in and out of it in it's real time | 20:25 |
| QuantumG | ya, I meant, how do you expect to | 20:25 |
| katsmeow-afk | but i wold mostly expect it to have solved the problem by the time the person talking tome stopped and shut his mouth, theni could provide the answer | 20:27 |
| QuantumG | I can imagine that there is known techniques for determining what number a subject is thinking of.. but is there any known techniques for presenting one to the subject? | 20:27 |
| katsmeow-afk | yeas, speech, writing, braille | 20:27 |
| QuantumG | :) | 20:27 |
| QuantumG | was kinda expecting direct presentation | 20:27 |
| katsmeow-afk | o | 20:28 |
| katsmeow-afk | no, it wold haveto go thru the wearer's wetware | 20:28 |
| katsmeow-afk | and each wold be different | 20:28 |
| QuantumG | so you think of root 2 and can experience that number in its floating point goodness | 20:28 |
| katsmeow-afk | one hopes | 20:28 |
| katsmeow-afk | just how, i dunno | 20:29 |
| katsmeow-afk | interfaces have been done to hearing and sight, but i dunno those are good enough,,maybe | 20:29 |
| QuantumG | have some experience of the floating point stack depth would be interesting too | 20:29 |
| katsmeow-afk | having each digit apear in my sight as a 9x16 dot matrix might not be enjoyable | 20:30 |
| katsmeow-afk | "but doc, it's pi! it won't STOP!" | 20:30 |
| genehacker | you might be able to adapt... | 20:30 |
| QuantumG | I think neural implants that interface with senses are missing the point | 20:30 |
| katsmeow-afk | Quantum , i sorta do too, butthat's pushing state of the art already | 20:31 |
| QuantumG | is it? I ask because I don't really follow it. I see occasional articles about sensing "what you're thinking about" and rarely see anything about restimulating those states | 20:33 |
| QuantumG | and yeah, numbers are a common one | 20:33 |
| katsmeow-afk | fmri can call out topics, like hate, but not what part of the table you hate | 20:34 |
| katsmeow-afk | afaik, it's not down to cellular level yet | 20:34 |
| katsmeow-afk | idk why i am starting every sentence with a abbr or ackronym | 20:35 |
