joshcryerAnyone know if Singularity Summit 2011 will be covered on a stream?01:31
joshcryerkanzure, I'd be interested in seeing how you'd get around modern patents. Theoretically you could pretend that you're in perpetual 'research' (as patents allow use of the patent for research), but I wonder if it would really work.01:34
QuantumGthat video is gold joshcryer01:48
joshcryerIsn't it?01:52
joshcryerI seriously almost went insane debating those idiots in the mid 2000s. Now it's just, a laugh for me.01:52

joshcryerlol names of players in a Nature article03:05

joshcryerAnother teammate, grabhorn, was able to improve spvincentā€™s model (magenta), particularly in the core of the protein, and another teammate, mimi, was able to generate an even more accurate model (green) by correctly tucking in the loop at the top left.03:06
joshcryerAlthough much attention has recently been given to the potential of crowdsourcing and game playing, this is the first instance that we are aware of in which online gamers solved a longstanding scientific problem.03:07
joshcryertook that right out of Star Gate Universe. ;P (note really, foldit really predates that by a year).03:08
kanzurewhy am i awake03:08
joshcryergo to sleep03:09
joshcryer36/12 is a bad schedule03:09
kanzure36/7ish03:10
joshcryerouch03:10
joshcryerthere are some people who can do without any sleep whatsoever03:11
joshcryerhave some weird gene03:11
joshcryerperhaps you should try to acquire it03:11

QuantumGlike you're too busy to spare 9 minutes05:51
JayDuggerWho's the jackass at 00:45?05:52
JayDuggerNice clip from Texas Chainsaw Massacre, too.05:55
QuantumGDerrick Jensen, ecocrazy.05:57
JayDuggerProfessional ecocrazy?05:57
QuantumGpublished05:57
JayDuggerWonderful...05:57
JayDuggerDigging through most of those clips must have been like gargling raw sewage.05:58
QuantumGI had to cut the scariest shit05:59
JayDuggerI don't care to imagine what you omitted.06:00
QuantumGThere's a bit where a woman says "these trees are like our mother to us.. they're raping our mother.. what would you do if someone was raping your mother."  That was a little *too* powerful for this audience.06:00
JayDuggerDoes Jeff Greason actually quote Buckminister Fuller's s"Utopia or Obilvion?"06:00
QuantumGhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m8PlzDgFQMM is the full video.. I didn't cut much.06:03
JayDuggerI'll look later. Greason certainly seems to sing from the same sheet music.06:09
JayDuggerThank you for the link.06:10

dbolserany DIYBio ppl around?07:49
dbolseranyone running a bioreactor?07:49
dbolserI came up with a fun project (perhaps it's old news).07:50
delinquentmedbolser: diybio heeere!07:50
delinquentmebio reactos are the tits man07:50
dbolser1) get a cell culture from a plant that produces a low yield of your desired (expensive to manufacture compound)07:50
delinquentmetheres a company here in PGH whos made a pretty sucessful one07:51
dbolser2) randomly modulate the gene expression in the plants using rnai against it's genome07:51
dbolser3) measure yield, 4) repat07:51
dbolserrepeat07:51
dbolsertry to 'learn' the trajectory in the search space that gets you to increased yield07:52
dbolserI think this could be a neat way to just 'create appropriate biology'07:52
dbolserthe first issue that comes to mind is, how to modulate the gene set of the cells, assuming that's needed07:53
-!- jmil [~jmil@c-68-81-252-40.hsd1.pa.comcast.net] has quit [Ping timeout: 276 seconds]07:53
dbolserand 2, how to increase expression levels of genes, because RNai typically knocks down a gene07:53
-!- JayDugger [~duggerj@pool-173-74-73-131.dllstx.fios.verizon.net] has quit [Quit: Leaving.]07:54
dbolserassuming your initiaL cell line has the right genes, you could use such a 'learning' system to make cells that are easy to transform, easy to handle, easy to maintain and produce a high yield... all assuming you can drive the cells in high throughput in this way07:55
dbolseror rather, apply many rounds (or continious) learning07:55
dbolserby using rnai, you simplify the molbio significantly, but you still need easy / quick / cheap DNa synth07:56
kanzuredelinquentme: sure, magnetic solids from liquids or magnetic liquids08:18
kanzuredbolser: doesn't have to be random dude... that shit is well known08:19
delinquentmekanzure: anything with a charge right?08:19
delinquentmeand just build a hunking pulse magnet or some shit08:19
kanzuremaybe you are thinking of electric fields and point charges08:19
delinquentme@_@ SHOULDA BOUGHT PARTS OF NAVY RAILGUN08:19
* delinquentme facepalm08:19
kanzurei don't know what's going on so i think i'll go sleep for an hour08:20
kanzurecya08:20
delinquentmekanzure:08:28
delinquentmeis it open source if only people who BUY it .. get the source?08:28
delinquentmeits more open .. maybe not fully though08:28

delinquentmehonestly theres quite a bit of BAD that can be done with this09:00
delinquentmepaywalls serve a purpose to filter out a bit of the sketch09:00

dbolserkanzure: right, the 'learning algo' would have the background knowledge to make the next step, but importantly, it wouldn't be restricted to 'known' biology09:26
dbolseri.e. if mirna x enhances the effect of mirna y, add it!09:26
dbolserkanzure: can I shedule a time with you to help me through my personal crisis of ethics?09:27
dbolserI'm dying here!09:27
