| kanzure | http://132.209.24.179/websvn/ | 13:57 |
| katsmeow-afk | wget | 14:00 |
| kanzure | methinks you don't understand svn | 14:02 |
| joshcryer | I don't see an svn checkout anywhere there. | 14:03 |
| katsmeow-afk | methinks i never liked it, and gave it up | 14:03 |
| kanzure | the svn daemon probably has anonymous checkout or something | 14:03 |
| kanzure | )which is what i'm asking about, primarily) | 14:03 |
| joshcryer | I can't find it I'm looking. | 14:04 |
| kanzure | websvn is just an http front for it | 14:04 |
| kanzure | so looking at the websvn pages isn't going to be useful | 14:04 |
| joshcryer | No I'm saying I'm sending raw svn commands to try to guess it intuitively. | 14:05 |
| joshcryer | There appears to be an svn server there but I don't know the checkout command. | 14:05 |
| kanzure | me either :) | 14:05 |
| joshcryer | (erm, I don't know the repository it's using I mean, I know how to chekcout) | 14:05 |
| joshcryer | OK there appears to in fact not be an svn server there. | 14:07 |
| joshcryer | wget it is. | 14:08 |
| kanzure | hrmph | 14:08 |
| joshcryer | Strange that an svn checkout command doesn't complain about there being no server but if you attempt to browse the repository it does. | 14:09 |
| joshcryer | Oh got, wget mirror completely rapes the filenames. | 14:10 |
| joshcryer | s/got/god | 14:11 |
| joshcryer | HAVE FUN WITH THAT. :P | 14:11 |
| kanzure | also it downloads the source files as the web pages (since that's what's being displayed) and that's mostly useless anyway | 14:13 |
| joshcryer | Not just that, the source code is littered with HTML delimiters, so you can't even write a quick script to clean 'em. | 14:15 |

| joshcryer | then you have to go and write a source code parser | 14:20 |

The purpose of the GEANT modeller is, therefore, to be able to effectively represent a large number of solids corresponding to a complex detector in order to perform fast and efficient particle tracking. The representation has not to be everywhere exact, while the number of solids to be represented is critical. Co | 14:39 |

| joshcryer | I wonder, are there any visual-layer chemistry toolkits? | 14:44 |
| kanzure | what do you need | 14:44 |
| joshcryer | Something that can tell me what chemical reaction happens with various combination of chemicals. | 14:44 |
| joshcryer | Visual would be nice but maybe not totally necessary. | 14:44 |
| kanzure | look up ab initio chemistry | 14:45 |
| kanzure | there's two general ways- theoretical chemistry, simulations, or what-have-you | 14:45 |
| kanzure | and then there's stuff like the bernstein reaction database, or the crossfire database | 14:45 |
| kanzure | (i.e. based on historical/experimental data) | 14:45 |
| joshcryer | <3 thanks. | 14:46 |
| kanzure | old school changelog thingy? | 14:52 |
| kanzure | http://ams.cern.ch/AMS/Electronics/Mech/AMS%2002%20Electronics%20Mechanics.htm | 14:52 |
| kanzure | so uh | 14:55 |
| kanzure | http://www.ams02.org/ | 14:55 |
| kanzure | does this means i have the cad files for that now? | 14:55 |
| kanzure | http://www.ams02.org/what-is-ams/tecnology/ | 14:55 |
| katsmeow-afk | so we cannot actually download the crossfire chemistry database | 14:57 |

| kanzure | "CERN, which at present has the largest single EUCLID installation, is based on two VAX 11/785's connected in a VAX cluster, each with 8 megabytes of memory. 20 monochrome workstations and 4 Tektronix 4016 graphic terminals grouped in remote clusters provide interactive access to the system. 8 Hewlett Packard pen and 4 Versatec electrostatic plotters provide the means of drawing output. In the near future one of the 785's will be replaced by the new | 19:21 |
| kanzure | i feel sad that CERN is based on OpenCASCADE | 19:23 |
| kanzure | well, at least the LEP at CERN | 19:23 |
| kanzure | "LEP, which contains more than 1,000 component types, with approximately 50,000 occurences of these components, is of such complexity that it is onyl feasible to define its structure by using computers. The dynamic nature of LEP also means that whenever an update is made, a complete new set of 24 layout drawings must be produced. This task can take up to 50 man hours, even with CAD." | 19:25 |
| kanzure | what? | 19:25 |
| kanzure | "During the day, Euclid is very heavily loaded with 'normal' interactive work, and the task of creating layout drawings would bring the system to a complete halt. Such a situation is to be avoided, not only because of its economic insanity, but also as it has a very negative effect on users. Therefore, a specially developed batch program now allows this task to be performed overnight. It also eliminates all user errors that are inevitable in such a | 19:26 |
| kanzure | mammoth operation." | 19:26 |
| kanzure | "The program must also create two copies of the object, one in meters for the civil engineers and one in millimeters for the mechanical engineers." | 19:28 |
| kanzure | "To significantly increase this maximum (of number of points) would require a total internal re-organization of Euclid. Such an increase will however be counter productive as the visualization response time is proportional to the square of the "complexity" of the object." | 19:31 |

| joshcryer | <QuantumG> I'm pretty sure the 10 minute limit thing is there because they can't reliably stream more than 10 minutes | 19:41 |
| -!- blort [~blort@pdpc/supporter/active/blort] has joined #hplusroadmap | 19:41 | |
| joshcryer | Probably not to a hundred plus million people. | 19:41 |
| joshcryer | (it's 15 mins now though) | 19:42 |
| QuantumG | yeah.. I mean, if you sign up like Spacevidcast has, you can upload bigger files. | 19:42 |
| kanzure | AliLhcBeam::SetLongEmmitance should only be callable with an audio vocal alert "SETTING LONG EMMITTANCE!" | 19:42 |
| QuantumG | but they never seem to stream well | 19:42 |
| QuantumG | maybe it's just me | 19:42 |
| joshcryer | It's you. | 19:42 |
| QuantumG | actually it seems to be fine now | 19:43 |
| joshcryer | Damn Aussies and their poor connection to the internet. :P | 19:43 |
| QuantumG | probably just that one video I was watching | 19:43 |
| joshcryer | I haven't had YouTube streaming / buffering issues in 3-4 years. | 19:43 |
| kanzure | sometimes video encoding sucks | 19:43 |
| joshcryer | luf-team patenting stuff? What stuff? | 19:43 |
| joshcryer | I like those Qi people because they don't want to infringe on patents and want everything to be free. | 19:44 |
| kanzure | crap that has been around forever | 19:44 |
| joshcryer | But it'd be nicer if people just said FUCK PATENTS and not cared. | 19:44 |
| uniqanomaly | except in this patent system people like that can and will be abused by ones exploiting it | 19:46 |
| -!- blort [~blort@pdpc/supporter/active/blort] has quit [Client Quit] | 19:46 | |
| uniqanomaly | 'except that' | 19:46 |
| QuantumG | crushing patents takes a concerted effort, including fund raising | 19:47 |
| -!- blort [~blort@pdpc/supporter/active/blort] has joined #hplusroadmap | 19:47 | |
| kanzure | crushing patents directly isn't going to work because of the hundreds of billions of dollars being made off of patents | 19:48 |
| QuantumG | I meant specific patents | 19:48 |
| joshcryer | Just ignore them and not care. | 19:48 |
| joshcryer | I live in an idealized world, ignore me. ;) | 19:48 |
| QuantumG | preferably before the filer has had a chance to build up a warchest | 19:48 |
| kanzure | what we need is something from the USPTO that directly provides an "out" or protection from patents in exchange for going totally open source (or somethinG) | 19:48 |
| QuantumG | joshcryer: which is fine until they don't ignore you. | 19:49 |
| kanzure | it's weird to say "protection from patents" but that's honestly what we need | 19:49 |
| joshcryer | QuantumG, and then they sue you and you have no assets and you go to jail, but then a hundred other people do it, and they go after each and every one of them, and some of them go to jail, then a thousand do it- you see where this is going. | 19:49 |
| kanzure | even if you win a patent litigation lawsuit you're going to lose a crapload of money | 19:49 |
| kanzure | (if you are the defendant and have no money) | 19:50 |
| joshcryer | Then you get around it by the bestest way possible. :) | 19:50 |
| joshcryer | Research. | 19:50 |
| QuantumG | yeah, but another way to say that is that you can sue anyone for anything and even if you don't have a case you can still put the fear of god into them. | 19:50 |
| kanzure | bah | 19:50 |
| kanzure | joshcryer: wimp | 19:50 |
| joshcryer | "I'm researching." | 19:50 |
| kanzure | joshcryer: load of shit | 19:50 |
| joshcryer | "Those dirty hackers I let look at my code are researching." | 19:51 |
| joshcryer | kanzure, it would work fine, you're not making any money from it. | 19:51 |
| joshcryer | (scary concept I know) | 19:51 |
| kanzure | i think you fail to understand "open source"- it's about business | 19:51 |
| QuantumG | indeed | 19:51 |
| joshcryer | Not for me it isn't. | 19:51 |
| QuantumG | and the point is, people other than the patent holder are often the problem. | 19:51 |
| joshcryer | Open source, closed source, I don't care. | 19:51 |
| joshcryer | And I'm vocal about it. | 19:52 |
| QuantumG | "we're not going to include your project because we think we might get sued" | 19:52 |
| kanzure | can you fuck off before you mudge the concepts even more? | 19:52 |
| joshcryer | kanzure, whatever, I'm not terribly concerned about patents and I think it holds back those who are. | 19:52 |
| kanzure | joshcryer: just because you fail to understand the origins of open source, etc. etc., doesn't mean you should ruin it for the rest of us | 19:52 |

| joshcryer | People saying they can't even look at under 500 nm processes for CPUs because they don't want to get in trouble. | 19:53 |
| joshcryer | Such a hinderance. | 19:53 |
| kanzure | no it's not that they can't look | 19:53 |
| kanzure | it's that nobody has the materials/information | 19:53 |
| QuantumG | kanzure: did you ever figure DIY integrated circuits? | 19:54 |
| kanzure | figure? wut? | 19:54 |
| joshcryer | That was me QuantumG. | 19:54 |
| joshcryer | And figuring out something like that is like, years of experimenting. :P | 19:54 |
| QuantumG | someone was trying to do DIY integrated circuits.. even just crude ones. | 19:54 |
| kanzure | i don't think it's years | 19:54 |
| kanzure | i also don't think you've investigated it enough | 19:55 |
| joshcryer | Yeah, that was me QuantumG, I don't know how to do CPU fabrication, it's like magic. | 19:55 |
| kanzure | no, it's not magic | 19:55 |
| joshcryer | I said it was magic? | 19:55 |
| kanzure | please go away | 19:55 |
| joshcryer | Be less pedantic kanzure, it doesn't suit you. | 19:55 |
| QuantumG | can you do single digit numbers of transistors on a wafer even? | 19:56 |
| QuantumG | can anyone (at home)? | 19:59 |
| kanzure | there's been a few people who have done that | 19:59 |
| joshcryer | QuantumG, you can make a transistor the size of a credit card or whatever. There are lots of those floating around. | 19:59 |
| kanzure | on another note have you seen the giant hand-drawn resistors made out of graphite drawn on paper? | 19:59 |
| joshcryer | (using resistors) | 20:00 |
| QuantumG | resistors? what's the connection there? | 20:00 |

| QuantumG | hmm.. Paul Breed says his Shapeways printed rocket motor has been pressure tested and he discovered that it's too porous | 21:07 |
| QuantumG | http://unreasonablerocket.blogspot.com/ | 21:07 |
| QuantumG | comment was from Twitter | 21:07 |
| kanzure | heh | 21:08 |
| kanzure | btw why is he trying that anyway? | 21:08 |
| QuantumG | because it's never been done :) | 21:09 |
| kanzure | he didn't expect it to be up to spec, did he? | 21:09 |
| QuantumG | well, there was no spec | 21:09 |
| kanzure | for plastic chambers? | 21:09 |
| kanzure | plastic pressure chambers | 21:09 |
| QuantumG | no, it's metal | 21:09 |
| QuantumG | laser sintered | 21:09 |
| kanzure | oh | 21:09 |
| QuantumG | tig welded together | 21:10 |
| kanzure | didn't know shapeways did stuff that's not printed goo | 21:10 |
| QuantumG | yeah, they do metal.. there's even videos of the process | 21:10 |
| kanzure | i was thinking shapeways==3d-printed-stuff | 21:10 |
| QuantumG | yep, 3d laser metal sintering | 21:10 |
| QuantumG | he welded it together, not shapeways | 21:10 |
| QuantumG | as you can see by the size of his fingers, it's not a huge motor | 21:11 |
| QuantumG | but it still cost a few hundred to get printed. | 21:11 |
| genehacker | so why didn't he infiltrate it? | 21:13 |
| genehacker | what's it made from? | 21:13 |
| QuantumG | it's stainless | 21:13 |
| QuantumG | and I have no idea what you mean by infiltrate | 21:13 |
| genehacker | was it made by EBM? | 21:13 |
| QuantumG | EBM? | 21:13 |
| genehacker | infiltrate as in put something in the pores | 21:13 |
| genehacker | electron beam melting | 21:14 |
| genehacker | electron beam melting is awesome, because it takes a lot less energy than laser beam melting | 21:14 |
| genehacker | so much so that the energy necessary to make a part from titanium via EBM is comparable to the energy it takes to make a part from plastic using Laser sintering | 21:15 |
| QuantumG | I don't think so.. http://www.shapeways.com/materials/stainless_steel | 21:15 |
| QuantumG | what would he infiltrate it with ya think? | 21:15 |
| genehacker | bronze | 21:15 |
| QuantumG | any idea how to do that? | 21:16 |
| genehacker | dip the part in molten bronze | 21:16 |
| genehacker | interesting they're uisng the binder process | 21:17 |
| QuantumG | k, I passed that on | 21:17 |
| genehacker | huh it looks like shapeways already infused it with bronze | 21:18 |
| QuantumG | not enough perhaps | 21:19 |
| genehacker | how's that too porous? | 21:19 |
| genehacker | is he trying to print motors so he can make a rocket motor array? | 21:20 |
| QuantumG | "When pressure testing the printed motor, outer jacket is way too porous. Someday may try expensive DMLS, rather than shapeways." <- all the info I have | 21:20 |
| QuantumG | he just wanted to try a printed motor.. he's done lots of machined motors before | 21:20 |

| genehacker | http://www.islandone.org/LEOBiblio/SPBI101.HTM#engine_cluster | 21:29 |
| genehacker | but I can see how porosity would be an issue | 21:29 |
| genehacker | perhaps the bronze is melting out... | 21:29 |
