rkosbut probably need to rewatch it to better get it12:22
rkoshowever i often wonder how blended into the network we've become12:23
delinquentmerkos, one can argue that the entirety of the knowledge on the internet is ours when we need it :12:23
delinquentme:D12:24
rkoswell that depends on how good you are at hunting for information in the internet, i don't think it comes that easily for everyone12:25
rkosand the internet is big, you never know how much there is that you can't imagine to look for even12:25
delinquentmetrue true12:26

rkosa friend of mine once joked that internet is like the prequel to life that was created afterwards to better explain the original, though i guess this doesn't apply to everyone but i pretty much grew up in the internet and i think in the future it will be more common for people to get acquainted with the world first through the internet12:37
rkosthe real world is a very surreal place with none of the predictability of computers12:37

@kanzurelolz we can help you with calculus 114:03
@kanzurebut calculus 4+ makes me grumpy14:03
mattypants_i'm smart but I never learned much for math or bio14:03
delinquentmekanzure, soo how hard would it be to gank all of elsivers data?14:03
@kanzuredelinquentme: i've done it before..14:03
@kanzuredelinquentme: also, have some code http://github.com/kanzure/pyscholar14:03
@kanzurehttps://github.com/kanzure/pyscholar/blob/master/sciencedirect.py14:03
delinquentmeso im reading this article and they're talking about how elsiver is fucking up14:03
@kanzureerm, that's not all of it14:03
@kanzuresciencedirect.py is bigger elsewhere.. hrm14:03
delinquentmebasically they've got AMAZING software which parses human prose and converts it into actual chemical reactions14:04
@kanzurethat's not too amazing14:04
@kanzurewe can do that14:04
@kanzurewe have the technology..14:04
delinquentme... anyways14:04
Stee|hmmmm14:04
Stee|calc 414:04
Stee|Diff EQ?14:04
delinquentmehow would individuals go about getting those papers14:04
@kanzureStee|: that's usually 314:04
Stee|I took difeq before multivar14:05
Stee|haha14:05
delinquentmeat least setting something up to begin building a repository14:05
Stee|err14:05
Stee|rather14:05
Stee|other way around14:05
Stee|multivar then difeq14:05
@kanzure4 is like, partial diff eq in complex planes because we like to fuck with you14:05
Stee|oh, that's not that bad (he says without having touched it in years)14:05
@kanzuredelinquentme: stealing access, usually14:05
@kanzurei liked multivar :/14:05
mattypants_calculus isn't harrd14:05
mattypants_hard*14:05
Stee|well, actually, control systems is actually entirely based out of that stuff, just in specific fields14:05
mattypants_i just have no background in trig, geometry, algebra14:05
@kanzuremattypants_: wut14:06
mattypants_because i dicked around all during high school14:06
Stee|left half plane of a root locus diagram is real, right half plane is imaginary14:06
@kanzureyou went to highschool too?14:06
@kanzureman..14:06
Stee|I got the fuck out of highschool fast, luckily14:06
@kanzurepeople need to stop doing that (high school)14:06
mattypants_yeah14:07
@kanzuredelinquentme: so yeah you have to get access first14:07
@kanzuredelinquentme: second step is figuring out an ok algorithm for making it seem random enough14:07
@kanzuresequential acccess is something that a sysadmin can detect if he looks at logs14:07
delinquentmekanzure, what about a chrome plugin14:07
@kanzureor that software can easily detect14:07
@kanzuredelinquentme: why would you need that if you had access14:08
delinquentmewhich whenever someone accessed it ... it would essentially dump all the data to one of our servers14:08
delinquentmewell right now14:08
delinquentmethey14:08
@kanzurebecause the university would get very angry at me14:08
delinquentmehave legal shit against doing the scraping14:08
mattypants_honestly if there's anything i could have done differently, i would have dropped out of high school and gone to community college14:08
delinquentmewhich is fine14:08
delinquentmebut14:08
@kanzuremattypants_: yep14:08
delinquentmeif we could inject our code as an intermediary14:08
Stee|I did HS and CC at the same time14:08
@kanzuredelinquentme: what?14:09
delinquentmewhich chrome or other web browser sounds like a phenomenal spot14:09
delinquentmewe wouldn't have to worry about the infringing use14:09
@kanzuredelinquentme: you still need to proxy the request through an IP address that has access, like a computer on a university network14:09
delinquentmeyea yeah14:09
@kanzureit's not about infringing use, it's about unauthorized access14:09
delinquentmebut thats easy14:09
@kanzureyes, it's easy, but the university will *kill* you14:09
@kanzurethat's my point..14:09
delinquentmeask any scientist who wants to work on this to download it so we can begin compiling shit14:09
delinquentmeand they're in14:09
delinquentmebut its *not* unauthorized14:10
@kanzurecome up with a solution to the legal problem and i'll have the software to you in 10 hours14:10
delinquentmethe researcher is pulling data14:10
@kanzurewho is?14:10
delinquentmewhich they are legally allowed to do14:10
delinquentmewhoever has the plugin installed14:10
@kanzurelolz14:10
@kanzurethat's hilarious14:10
@kanzureso, you want something like selenium14:10
delinquentmeand then siphon off the data14:10
@kanzurewhere it physically uses the browser14:10
@kanzureto click on the website to download it14:10
delinquentmeno14:11
@kanzurethat could possibly work14:11
delinquentmebecause that violates the terms14:11
delinquentmethe terms specify they're not allowed to automate the scraping14:11
delinquentmehowever!14:11
delinquentmeif a researcher is simply accessing data14:11
delinquentmeand the plugin copies that data14:11
@kanzureso you want a researcher to sit around all day clickign "Download pdf" links?14:11
delinquentmeno14:12
@kanzurei'm just trying to understand14:12
eudoxiahahaha14:12
delinquentmeonly when they legit go to lookup some resource14:12
Stee|ugh14:12
delinquentmedoes it happen that that resource is added14:12
@kanzuredelinquentme: zotero does this, but it doesn't upload the pdf14:12
Stee|it still counts as unauthorized copying14:12
Stee|actually14:12
@kanzureit scrapes the pdf for you, but no uploadie :(14:12
Stee|even if the access is legit14:12
@kanzureit would be a very easy thing to fix14:12
@kanzureStee|: no no you could call it the 'science cloud' or some shit14:13
Stee|don't think that counts under fair use14:13
Stee|if you teach a course that 'requires' certain papers, however, you can copy them under fair use14:13
Stee|>_>14:13
@kanzurethe point is, the university cares about bulk downloading only14:13
Stee|I was talking about legality14:13
@kanzureit does not care that you are sharing a paper with a person14:13
delinquentmepirate bay14:15
delinquentmethey maintain all kinds of torrent info14:15
delinquentmemeh. it gets into decentralized shit14:15
@kanzuredelinquentme: btw, most publishers add a pdf watermark14:15
@kanzurenot just the text that says "Downloaded at xyz date" but also this other hidden pdf object element14:15
@kanzurei wrote some code to remove certain forms of this watermark, but i haven't extensively tested it14:15
@kanzureit's a gzipped/encrypted segment of the file14:16
@kanzureyou can tell based on the software that was used to serve the pdf file (usually something from Adobe like AdobeElsevierFucker)14:16
delinquentmeso is it more effective to go the plugin / download route14:16
delinquentmeor just jump their systems and take tons of research14:16
@kanzurejumping is pretty easy14:17
@kanzuredelinquentme: see pm14:17
delinquentmesure14:17
mattypants_what's going on and can i help any14:17
delinquentmealso I like the idea of pirate bay having it14:17
delinquentmebc they'd have their awesome legal team responses14:17
delinquentme" Fuck you"14:17
delinquentme<314:17
Stee|ehhhh14:17
@kanzureyou still need someone to seed it14:17
Stee|wondering if tpb is going to be extradited14:18
@kanzuredelinquentme: so, what about this..14:18
@kanzuredelinquentme: call it a 'relayer'14:18
@kanzurea piece of software on the researcher's computer14:18
delinquentmemattypants_, essentially I just found out that there is a wonderful bit of text processing which can be used for automation14:18
delinquentmein really cool ways14:18
@kanzurethe researcher has a social network of scientists and friends14:18
@kanzurethey send in requests for literature14:18
@kanzurehe manually clicks 'approve' and the scraper grabs that paper under his authorization14:18
@kanzurerelayer relays it to the requester.14:19
mattypants_so like14:19
delinquentmeeffectively it would work if we can get any kind of code between the researcher and the repository14:19
mattypants_what is the point of this chat room14:19
@kanzuremattypants_: human enhancement, world domination, biohacking, genetic therapies, nootropics14:19
@kanzureopen hardware..14:20
eudoxiahuman enhancement technologies14:20
delinquentmemattypants_, hence what were talking about here14:20
mattypants_what are nootropics14:20
delinquentmethis would effectively "codify" hand written chemical reactions allowing scientists to search ... and even more powerful: automate14:20
delinquentmemattypants_, smartdrugs14:21
delinquentmecaffeine14:21
@kanzuremattypants_: caffeine is a very lame example14:21
@kanzurecaffeine but 500x14:21
delinquentmeadderall14:21
mattypants_speaking of which14:21
mattypants_how the fuck do i get an adderallscript14:21
Stee|I wouldn't do adderall14:21
@kanzuredelinquentme: there's already a lot of products for searching chemical reactions, but nothing open source because CAS has proprietarized the data14:21
mattypants_also how do you guys feel about marijuana use?14:21
@kanzuredelinquentme: http://diyhpl.us/~bryan/papers2/Route%20designer%20-%20a%20retrosynthetic%20analysis%20tool%20utilizing%20automated%20retrosynthetic%20rule%20generation.pdf14:21
mattypants_my roommate is a drug policy kid14:21
@kanzurewhat is drug policy14:22
@kanzurei mean, what is a drug policy kid14:22
mattypants_so we have these discussions14:22
mattypants_essentially sociology concentrating on drugs14:22
@kanzuremattypants_: you get a script by needing it..14:22
Stee|I wouldn't be in the same room as someone doing MJ, but that's for security clearance reasons14:22
@kanzuremattypants_: sounds lame14:22
delinquentmeCAS?14:22
mattypants_it's not really a major14:22
mattypants_it's more of a thing he likes to study14:22

@kanzureyou know, it would be interesting to make an 'access map'14:25
@kanzurelet's say you get a group of researchers to join this network14:25
@kanzureeach node on the network checks which sources it has access to14:25
@kanzurethen based on a given social network you can say that MIT has less access than shady university of cambodia14:25
delinquentmeoh so there are levels of access to these journals?14:26
@kanzureyou could have some tool easily go through a list of doi numbers or read the "subscription explanation" pages on elsevier/all the others14:26
@kanzureyes14:26
@kanzureso, look at how ezproxy config works14:26
@kanzureyou can have a login to sciencedirect, but you might not have subscriptions to each journal14:26
@kanzurethen there's "university login" which is pre-authenticated by ip address14:27
@kanzureand then there's companies that have subscriptions.. companies read papers too, right?14:29
@kanzurebtw if you wanted to be really leet about it you'd find a security vulnerability in ezproxy14:30
delinquentmeez proxy huh14:31
delinquentmeah!14:32
delinquentmeverilah nice14:32
@kanzureoh i haven't shown you about ezproxy have i14:32
@kanzurewell.. for some reason, all universities purchase this software14:32
@kanzurelibraries use it to let students/staff access papers from home14:33
@kanzureit's a simple http proxy14:33
@kanzurepeople who write viruses/trojans are kind enough to send ezproxy username/passwords around on the web14:33
@kanzureso you can lookup logins on weird arabic and russian forums14:33
@kanzuresometimes libraries notice that many people are accessing an ezproxy login, so they disable it and reset the student's password14:34
delinquentmehaha14:36

@kanzurethesnark: so, here's a silly/retarded idea14:49
@kanzurethat delinquentme sorta suggested14:50
delinquentmeAHAG14:50
delinquentmeso lovely14:50
* thesnark listens14:50
delinquentmekanzure, ill pitch him14:50
@kanzureno i wanted to tell him the selenium version first haha14:50
@kanzurebut go ahead14:50
delinquentmethesnark, basically someone has created this really sweet chemical parsing software14:50
delinquentmehuman gibberish >> codified chemical processes14:50
thesnarkNice.14:51
@kanzureerm14:51
delinquentmethey cant run this bc some journals have software processing clauses .. so we're talking about how to circumvent that14:51
@kanzurehow'd you get from that to scraping14:51
@kanzurei mean, to scraping against elsevier14:51
delinquentmeive heard of selenium used for browser testing14:51
delinquentmehttp://blogs.ch.cam.ac.uk/pmr/2011/11/25/the-scandal-of-publisher-forbidden-textmining-the-vision-denied/14:52
* thesnark is still listening14:52
@kanzureerm it's largely because the publishers don't want you to access all of their papers14:52
delinquentmehe talkes about the elsevier being nubs14:52
delinquentmethesnark, basically we can take a huge step forward in not only automating chemical building14:53
delinquentmebut also science in general14:53
delinquentmebut we need a good place to host the docs14:53
@kanzurehuh?14:53

thesnarkYou lost me, you want to scrape papers with chemical software?14:53
@kanzurebut that doesn't seem specific to chemical reaction parsing14:53
thesnarkStorage is no problem14:54
@kanzurethesnark: so anyway, the reason why nobody is setting up a giant gateway through which the open internet proxies requests to elsevier14:54
@kanzureis because the universities get enraged about it14:54
@kanzurebecause it is a legal issue, true14:54
@kanzurebut there are lots of "file sharing" that goes on at a campus14:55
@kanzure*lots of "illegal things"14:55
@kanzurebulk downloading is frowned upon14:55
thesnarkThat fits perfectly with what I'm doing, haha14:55
@kanzureso i thought deliquentme was suggesting that instead of automated bulk scraping,14:55
@kanzureresearchers "approve" access to someone for a certain paper14:55
@kanzureso you can imagine a few scenarios14:55
thesnarkI'm connecting darknet software to scraping/caching14:55
@kanzurea) a small bit of software where the researcher clicks "approve" and the scraper works14:56
thesnarkDude14:56
@kanzureb) a scraper that is always on, but with throttling14:56
thesnarkAlready doing exactly that14:56
thesnarkHaha14:56
@kanzurec) selenium to imitate the researcher physically using a fucking mouse14:56
@kanzurethesnark: yes i know.. you've told me14:56
@kanzurethis is why i asked you to come in..14:56
Stee|table of contents written for thesis...14:56
@kanzureBUT OK14:56
delinquentmewell you can have it with that scenario or with something like a chrome plugin where they simply download it knowing that its a tool for opening science14:56
@kanzurethesnark: also because i've written this software before too :314:56
@kanzurejust without the uploading aspects really.. just the scrapers14:57
thesnarkRight14:57
@kanzuredelinquentme: like zotero, but with an upload-to-the-cloud option14:57
thesnarkLet me get back to you, I'm doing hw at the moment14:57
@kanzurezotero's javascript scrapers are pretty neat14:57
@kanzurebut nobody has them running on a server yet14:57
@kanzureit's in a stupid firefox plugin :x14:57
thesnarkJust keep talking and paste it into an email for me14:58
delinquentmewell ive built scrapers before14:58
delinquentmethats no problem14:58
thesnarkI have to go14:58
@kanzuredelinquentme: it's a lot of different scrapers14:58
@kanzureand14:58
@kanzuremaintaining scrapers is a pain in the ass14:58
delinquentmeohhh14:58
@kanzurezotero has one for each journal/publisher14:59

-!- thesnark [~AndChat@unaffiliated/thesnark] has quit [Quit: Bye]14:59
@kanzuredelinquentme: the advantage of zotero is that they have people maintaining their scrapers15:00
@kanzureso if one breaks, they usually fix it within 12 hours15:00
@kanzurei was thinking that zotero should be hacked to run on a server,15:01
@kanzureand you just send the html to the server to be parsed15:01
@kanzureso that the templates only have to be fixed server-side, not with a plugin update to 30,000 users that will probably not update their plugin15:01
delinquentmehmm i guess I was imagining the parts that would break would be changes in the tags used for selecting15:01
@kanzuresure..15:01
@kanzurethat happens15:01
@kanzurebut since they have a community already they usually have someone go and fix it out of frustration15:01
delinquentmethat sounds like a good thing to use15:02
@kanzureyeh it's marketed as a bibliography tool for keeping bibtex data15:03
@kanzurebut the auto-download-pdf thing is fantastic15:03

@kanzuredelinquentme: max 4 MB per paper, usually15:18
@kanzurescanned pdfs are obv. bigger15:18
@kanzurenon-scanned tend to be 1 MB or less, depending on how many photos15:18
@kanzurei think the estimate is 80,000 papers/year are published in the US or something15:19
Stee|and you don't need nearly all of them15:19
Stee|also, p. sure this is still illegal, no?15:19
@kanzurewait, this is wrong15:20
@kanzure"In 2009, there were 845,175 articles published and recorded in PubMed."15:20
@kanzureah but that's probably global15:20
@kanzure"The authors used the most comprehensive citation indexes, Web of Science and Ullrichsweb, for their analysis.They estimate that 1.346 million articles were published in 23.750 journals within 2006. "15:20
@kanzurei think they mean 23,750 journals15:20
@kanzure"1.486 million peer-reviewed papers published within 2010."15:21

JayDuggerI started reading NASA's Space Technology Roadmaps & Priorities.18:48
JayDuggerIt includes "Intelligent Integrated Manufacturing and Cyber Physical Systems (Manufacturing)," by which they mean watch everybody else for stuff we can use in space.18:49
JayDugger"This technology would enable physical components to be manufactured in space...promises improved affordability of one-off structures made from high-performance materials...applicable to all NASA space vehicles including unmanned, robotic, and human-rated"18:51
JayDuggerIt also ties in nicely with a different section on Automated Logistics Management. (Think GPS for parts.)18:51
JayDuggerSo...18:52
JayDuggerskdb looks as if it would serve them nicely.18:52
JayDuggerAnd no, they don't include nuclear pulse rockets in the report.18:52
JayDuggerThey do mention nuclear thermal rockets, but only in a half-hearted fashion.18:53
JayDuggerSo while I'd buy `skdb make -me -a nuclearpulserocket`, NASA won't.18:54
JayDuggerAnd from the later chapters, it doesn't seem as if NASA will pay for skdb work at all. :(18:56

JayDuggerNot really.18:58
Juulok18:58
JayDuggerI'd start looking from Contour Crafting and other 3d printers using concrete.18:58
JayDuggerI'd continue by research regolith simulation.18:58
Juulseems to me that a big freznel lense (or multiple) would be light enough to send to the moon cheaply18:59
Juuland using electrostatic soil separation and sunlight for melting, would be the best way to go18:59
JayDuggerThen I'd want to know if you could process regolith into something usable in a 3d printer sans water.18:59
JayDuggerYeah...let me think.18:59
Juulyeah i've done some homework on lunar soil18:59
yashgarothI thought they found water at the north pole or something19:00

JuulJayDugger, i do not know about this. thanks!19:00
