dbolserFor the American futurist Ray Kurzweil is a realistic forecast, 400 years old or even become immortal. But the scientific community agrees that the life expectancy continues to increase. But how far they can expand through medical innovation and what are the biological causes of aging? The longer life span would also affect the interaction between the generations and perhaps even the art, because what happens with classical narrative models, where w09:36

kanzurejrayhawk: what am i doing wrong?17:04
gloopmy debian actuallyhas a broken update manager so i can't install anything (i'm waiting for 6.0 squeeze)17:06
gloopi might install AuroraOS17:06
gloopwhen it comes out17:06
kanzurei don't know how to explain this since it (to me) is like the first thing anyone using linux learns17:07
kanzurewhen you type in commands you're typing into a shell17:07
gloopright i get that- it's at a taller abstraction layer than the kernel17:07
kanzureok. so no, bash is not xchat or like xchat17:08
gloopi learned through ubuntu and am slowly making my way closer to terminal commands, on a need basis17:08
gloopmost of my linux learning occurs through installing commands copied and pasted onto terminal17:09
gloopfrom the net17:09
kanzureyeah that's a bad idea17:09
kanzureanyway i guess i'm under obligation to explain what i was saying17:09
gloopi know, but it works for now- i started as a windows user17:09

kanzureindividual papers on their own aren't quite as useful because nobody will ever bother to organize them17:19
Lukas__paperleaks17:20
gloopthat is true. perhaps there could be a reference citer- tracking which papers are cited more often, and to see if one type of research field is ignored because it has a conflict of interest17:20
Lukas__do I smell something in teh making? ....17:20
gloopnothing wrong with that, and maybe doesn't even require the paper, except maybe to examine the reference section17:21
gloopthere already is something like that- which shows how often a paper was cited17:21
ybitso, superkuh, we're going to die, what to do with our time?17:21
kanzuregloop: i think you misunderstand ybit's comment17:22
ybiti could grep.. i might just do that... but i think you were working on rtms?17:22
kanzureybit's comment was not about citation analysis17:22
gloopi wasn't inreference to ybit, but kanzure17:22
kanzureybit: superkuh gave up because he thinks he needs more money, last i heard17:22
ybitoh, grr, it's always this money issue17:23

gloopso i have a question. who came up with the Grand Manufacturing Prize17:44
kanzurekartik gada17:45
kanzurewell17:45
kanzurekartik in consultation with the reprap core development team17:45
gloopand the Water Liberation?17:45
kanzurekartik17:46
kanzurewater liberation and grand manufacturing prizes have no funding at the moment17:46
gloopi know17:46
kanzurethough it looks like humanity+ will be teaming up with kartik to provide a 501c3 for those17:46
kanzure(it's in progress.. had a conference call about it on my birthday yesterday)17:46
gloopthey're both great idesa17:46
kanzureimho we could use more money for bounties17:47
kanzurein open source hardware.17:47
kanzurei.e. "$2,000 for a textile automation machine built on top of reprap"17:47
kanzurehttp://reprap.org/wiki/Skeinosaur17:47
kanzurebrontoraptor <3 :D17:47
gloopclothing? cool17:48
gloopwhat about a BronteRepRap that prints Dover classics of Jane Eyre? lol17:51
gloopis anyone on a RepRap team?18:01
kanzuredo you mean the core development team group.. thing?18:01
gloopteam for making new generations18:01
gloopthough i'm not sure if the gada prize in GPM is the same18:02
kanzurejmil, timschmidt, genehacker, elmom might know a few things18:02
kanzurein GPM?18:02
kanzurehttp://gadaprize.org/ there is no other :)18:02
kanzureunless you wanted the teams listed here http://reprap.org/wiki/Gada_Prize18:03
gloopif i'm not mistaken, the grand manufacturing prize wants to have teams develop parts for a faster reprap, but would that mean they would all go into a core dev18:03
kanzurewell ideally core dev will appreciate the changes18:03
kanzurebut if not it's very easy to branch git repositories18:03
gloopyeah i'm guessing the core dev of the rep rap should be like Gentoo or something- very modular at a layer- though some parts aren't as interechangeable i'd imagine18:06
kanzurei am having trouble assessing your technical knowledge since you seem to be aware of debian but not bashor what a shell is18:07
kanzure*bash or what a shell is18:07
gloopbash is a terminal command... a shell is a GUI?18:08
gloopwell, i also speak in metaphors. so i'm not literal18:08
gloopalways18:09
gloop*not literal always18:09
kanzureso does that mean you know what gentoo actually is or just that you know it exists?18:09
kanzurei'm confused18:09
QuantumGgentoo == linux ricers18:10
gloopfrom a distant, abstract perspective, i don't take what Gentoo actually is, but the what it may seem to emphasize more than other linux distros...however, if there is a distro more barebone and less standard than debian, then i was signifying that18:13
gloopanother way of asking is, what is modular in linux, and what isn't?18:14
delinquentmeumm does anyone know of a internet startup which as openly declared they wont support IE as a browser?18:14
kanzuredelinquentme: yeah i've heard of one or two like that..18:14
kanzuregloop: packages are modular.18:15
delinquentmekanzure, know the names of them by chances?18:15
kanzurenope.18:15
kanzuredelinquentme: http://www.marco.org/8295048018:15
kanzurehttp://playnice.ly/blog/2010/10/19/techstartup-focused-product-dont-support-ie/18:16
kanzurehttp://www.usabilitypost.com/post/14-drop-ie6-support-give-people-a-reason-to-upgrade18:16
gloopok. so what packages constitute the linux or Hurd kernel18:16
kanzurehttp://www.techcrunch.com/2010/01/29/google-twists-knife-in-ie6-pulls-support-from-docs-and-sites/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+Techcrunch+%28TechCrunch%29&utm_content=Google+Reader18:16
gloopand what can be run as an abstraction above that18:17
gloopor whatever runs on that18:17
kanzuregloop: debian package? i guess there's linux-image-2.6.xxx18:17
kanzurelinux-image-2.6.30-2-686 for instance18:17
kanzurehm that's an old one18:17
gloopa new one was just released18:17
gloophttp://linux.slashdot.org/story/11/01/05/2021254/Linux-2637-Released18:18
gloopok well my original  point isn't as applicable to printers i guess18:19
kanzuregloop: have you watched my videos on apt-get for hardware?18:20
gloopi saw some of the presentations18:20
gloopi understand the concept. it will just take a while for me to get all the ins and outs of its physical destination on a printer18:23
kanzuregloop: on another note, this little new year's project of mine might interest you18:29
kanzurehttp://diyhpl.us:9000/random18:29
gloopi've seen that gerontologist featured on exhibitsat the science museum near where i live at an exhibit18:30
gloopoops i said that twice18:31
kanzure"that gerontologist" there are many gerontolist-videos there.. which one? :)18:32
gloopthe one on that link with the LONG beard18:32
gloopthe same exhibit had vertical farming, which i like18:32
kanzure:) aubrey de grey18:32
delinquentmehes so BALLSY!18:35
delinquentmeguys kinda my hero18:35
gloopspeaking of vertical farming. would LED lights be enough to grow crops in skyscrapers?18:41
gloopare any RepRaps working on LED light bulbs?18:41
gloophydroponics, aeroponics etc18:42
delinquentmegloop, ive seen a LEd light used for MJ that apprently kicks ass in many spectrums18:45
delinquentmeit MAY be called the UFO or something18:45
gloophmm. flat lights would be useful18:46
gloopeasier to print18:46
gloopthat's a good idea. offices in urban skyscrapers  should grow food with them18:54
gloop80 wattsx 12 hours...if a solar panel system could power that per each lamp that would be efficient18:57

kanzuregloop: how many bookmarks do you have19:23
gloop77 on XP, but i only use like the most recent 4 or 519:24
kanzureonly 77?19:24
gloopi have links in emails19:25
gloopthat i search usually19:25
gloopso there are more there19:25
kanzurei see. i was going to ask for a .tar.gz of your bookmarks folder but i guess that's not going to happen19:25
gloopi just search from memory, which usually works19:25
gloopkeywords, phrases19:25
kanzurei have a set of about 15,000 bookmarks if you ever want to look at that19:26
gloopalso, i once had a metaidea of borrowing what old games in the 80s did with DRM19:26
gloopit's too hard to look into a huge list without context19:26
kanzureit's a hierarchy19:26
gloopthat helps19:27
gloopyou know how some games on floppies asked you to list the third word from the top in an instruction manual so they could prove you actually owned the booklet?19:28
gloopor something like that19:28
gloopwell, i was thinking they could do that with a web search- an author that charges for brief access to a page or a line in a book could sell you  a mini copy of the book excerpt if you typed in a specific query, such as one from memory19:29
gloopof course it could just be made free19:29
gloopbut for existing books19:29
gloopit could be restrictive or open like a whole paragraph page/preview19:30
kanzureor you can just give me the entire book.19:30
gloopanyways, that was a bit off topic19:30
gloopyeah that's how  an ebook could  be published19:31
kanzureebooks can be published by uploading the files to some server on the web.. problem solved.19:31
gloopright. it was more of a mental exercise19:32
gloopwell, i read Slashdot daily, and usually The Inquirer.net19:33
glooptheinquirer.net*19:33
kanzureno i just sort of expected you to have a large collection of obscure bookmarks19:33
gloopin my head, in heavily spliced memes you could say something of the sort exists19:34
kanzureyes but i can't download that (yet) :(19:34
gloopi could recreate some of it19:35
gloopin the near future19:35
gloopmy  life is kind of like Katamari Damacy19:35
gloopmore of a snowball collection19:35
gloopharder to forget19:35
glooptell you what, i'll write down a bunch of links i recall19:36
gloopand i'll send it in the next few days19:36
kanzurecool19:37
kanzuretry for stuff that i am not aware of :)19:37

joshcryerNo you're wrong it's to much. :P21:45
QuantumGyeah, true, both work21:45
joshcryerI like your interpretation though but I did mean the other way.21:46
joshcryerThe real time demos you see on YouTube just don't apply to anything that we actually care about.21:46
joshcryerFor me it's sort of crossing the Uncanny Valley where a robot is doing something humans can do very easily and in real time.21:47
joshcryerBut to watch a kid bounce a ping pong ball it's "meh, who cares."21:47
kanzuremaybe the robot brings hope of repeatbility21:50
kanzurewhich is weird because right now you can breed kids faster than robots21:50
kanzure*repeatability21:50
joshcryerhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gy5g33S0Gzo21:53
joshcryerIndeed.21:53
joshcryerIt's because robots are still processing way way way more data than humans give a crap about.21:53
joshcryerI think we convince ourselves that we're so awesome that our robots need to do all sorts of superfluous stuff to achieve the same results.21:54
joshcryer"Yeah, we have to scan the entire towel for the robot to fold it because the human brain is so awesome and scans the entire environment hundreds of times a second and maps everything out."21:55

QuantumGit's a PR221:58
QuantumGbefore the PR2 donation21:58
QuantumGthere's a towel folding module in ROS I believe21:58
joshcryer"We present a novel vision-based grasp point detection algorithm that can reliably detect the corners of a piece of cloth, using only geometric cues that are robust to variation in texture. Furthermore, we demonstrate the effectiveness of our algorithm in the context of folding a towel using a generalpurpose two-armed mobile robotic platform without the use of specialized end-effectors21:59
joshcryeror tools. The robot begins by picking up a randomly dropped towel from a table, goes through a sequence of vision-based re-grasps and manipulations- partially in the air, partially on the table- and finally stacks the folded towel in a target location."21:59
joshcryerNot sure if that went through.21:59
