-!- wizrobe is now known as wozbri08:46
JayDuggerDefine cheap.08:49
JayDuggerDefine working.08:49
JayDuggerCf. http://www.foc.us/, which retails for US$249 + S&H08:49
JayDuggerThat seems steep.08:49
JayDuggerDo upverter or circuitlab let you have products made from schematics? If so, draw up the TDCS and order away.08:50
JayDuggerIf I've missed something obvious, or betray a stupid oversight by what I've typed, sing out. I won't learn better otherwise. :)08:51

delinquentmeso like08:55
delinquentmestabilization tables for things like AFMs are real things huh?08:56
delinquentmelike hella expensive08:56
JayDuggerYou're welcome to the reference. Let me know if it works. I'd have ordered one, but forgot that I had a semi-annual car insurance payment this week.08:56
JayDuggerI assume so. I remember a podcast where Charles Ostman talk about similar things.08:56
JayDuggerIf you know someone working at a chip fab, or who works on equipment for such places, they can probably tell you in great detail.08:57
ThomasEgi250 bucks for a bluetooth controlled one-transistor device.. is so.. meek^08:58
JayDuggerAgreed. If the market will bear it, then good for them. I find it awfully pricey. Thus my comments about upverter and circuitlab.08:59
ThomasEgii mean. sure if you need it to fully comply with  medical grade standards it can get expensive. but if you don't care about operating it along with half a dozen other devices strapped to your body. you can get away on a budget08:59
JayDuggerExactly. What would a one-off cost, assuming you handled it all on-line?09:00
JayDuggerAs in, 1) draw schematic.09:00
JayDugger2) click make09:00
JayDugger3) provide shipping address and billing information09:00
ThomasEginot worth making on-line09:00
JayDuggerHands up who doesn't have the parts necessary in their home.09:01
ThomasEgihands remain down.09:01
JayDuggerMine are up. L)09:01
ThomasEgiif you battery operate it, the most expensive part is the battery09:01
JayDuggerIf foc.us can sell them for $250, I think you could make them on-line. :)09:01
ThomasEgibill of material ranges in single-digit dollar.09:01
ThomasEgimatter of money.09:02
JayDuggerI'm listening.09:02
ThomasEgiwith basic soldering skills it's easy to make one yourself09:02
JayDuggerAgreed. I can go to work and build one.09:03
JayDuggerI am trying to avoid doing that.09:03
ThomasEgiafraid of building a constant current source?09:03
JayDuggerAfraid of getting fired.09:03
JayDugger(More accurately, afraid of yet another nasty conversation with my09:03
ThomasEgiask for permission to solder some circuits?09:03
JayDuggerboss about why doing something unrelated to work with company09:04
JayDuggeron the clock, with com;nay09:04
JayDuggercompany supplies should get ignored.)09:04
ThomasEgiwhatever. i mean. it's not like soldering iron are hard to source09:04
JayDuggerFair enough. I get your point that they are easy to build. I want to buy one to save my time.09:05
ThomasEgitime= money09:05
ThomasEgi250 bucks to be precise09:05
kanzuredelinquentme: there are many cheap tdcs things that are working, dunno what you are talking about..09:05
kanzurethe foc.us site suffers from evil marketing and non-existence09:06
JayDuggerPlease show me one for sale cheaper than $250.09:06
ThomasEgiin the end. it's just a controllable current source.09:06
kanzureoh please, if it happens to be $300 who cares?09:06
kanzureyou can already build your own for less than 250 anyway, not sure why 250 is your magic number for not wanting to buy one09:06
JayDuggerOkay...one last time. I want to buy09:07
ThomasEgiJayDugger,  http://home.arcor.de/positiveelectron/files/controllable-cc-source.png one example of an simple constant current source. may not comply to medical standards. but if you add a 10mA fuse in series with the electrodes. it should work for simple tests and not instantly kill you.09:07
ThomasEgishrug. well. then. buy one^09:07
kanzureThomasEgi: we could sell one if you want. i could also dump in money for pre-order/parts/supply reasons.09:09
kanzureThomasEgi: but you might have different priorities09:09
delinquentmekanzure, awesome yeah i just found out aout this :D09:09
kanzureah. well, if you look at their marketing closely, you will see that they are completely full of shit.09:09

delinquentmesoooo bio-nano-particles for thermal transfer liquids ?09:10
delinquentmehack on extremophiles?09:10
kanzureyou are just saying random words09:10
kanzurenot playing this game09:10
ThomasEgikanzure, it's not really worth it. if someone doesn't spend enough time to be able to understand and build a simple constant current source, i'm pretty sure that person should not be playing with sending current through his/her brain without a device that comes with enough safeguards to be foolproof09:12
JayDuggerSnobbish much?09:12
delinquentmekanzure, why couldn't you just grow a bunch of them .. lyse them... then use all the intert compounds contained within to use as a thermal transfer liquid09:14

-!- cogitokat [~kat@ip70-171-6-179.ga.at.cox.net] has joined ##hplusroadmap13:55
kanzurewell, no, i mean like intercepting the balloon and maybe deploying another payload.13:55
ThomasEgioh. well good luck getting to that altitude.13:56
ThomasEgiprobably a lot cheaper to simply buy your own balloon13:56
kanzure"Project Loon currently uses ISM bands (specifically 2.4 and 5.8 GHz bands) that are available for anyone to use."13:56
ThomasEgiand the good thing. with as few as 3 ballons connected to you at the same time, they can even triangulate your position13:57

phillyj10.1136/pgmj.74.872.32713:58
kanzurei think they could probably triangulate you anyway, who's to say they don't have more than one receiver?13:58
kanzure(per balloon)13:58
kanzurephillyj: paperbot is not capable of detecting that, you should file a bug report: https://github.com/kanzure/paperbot/issues13:58

kanzure... this regulatory space because that is what we will be doing shaping this regulatory space.  It includes a lot more stake holders.  We hope BioCurious will be a partner to help shape that regulatory space.  It is clear, however, BioCurious is uncomfortable over the Glowing Plant Project's release of seeds.  Glowing Plant Project understands this and, rather than having editorial control exerted over Glowing Plant by BioCurious, is now ...17:33
kanzure... looking to conduct the work elsewhere.  Hopefully, this will allow BioCurious to focus on a plan for long-term sustainability and the structural changes needed to implement it."17:34
kanzure"Finally, the Bioluminescence Community Project, Plant Biology Group, and Golden Braid Group have all been instrumental in the Glowing Plant Project origins.  Glowing Plant was planning on supporting these groups by providing funds for memberships, training, and contracting out parts of the project to these various groups.  Glowing Plant is currently rethinking how to support these projects and groups.  I am personally sorry for not having a ...17:34
kanzure... more satisfying answer at this time especially given my close ties to each of these groups."17:34
kanzureheh "has decided to release seeds in a safely and ethically"17:36
kanzurei mean, "ethically."17:36
juri_methinks that word might need finer definition in his vocabulary.17:37

kanzureno, i think he is just bad at writing sentences17:37
kanzurehis grammar is all over the place17:37
kanzure"in a safely and ethically." is no way to end a sentence.17:37
juri_still, one cannot decide on ethics. one can only set your own morals, and discuss ethics with the community.17:38
kanzurehuh?17:38
juri_I always took ethics as being the agreed to upon standards, where morals were personal.17:39
kanzurei don't know why you are typing these sentences17:39
juri_its perfectly ethical to do a lot of things i'll drop dead before doing.17:39
juri_oh, that was just what stuck out at me.17:40
kanzure"that" is what?17:40
juri_the use of the term ethics there.17:40
juri_ethical would be to simply comply with 'industry practice' whatever that is.17:40
kanzurebecause of bad grammar, you assume he has a different concept of ethics than you do?17:40
kanzureuh, that's appeal to authority. industry practice is not necessarily ethical.17:41
juri_no, because he's discussing a field that is in development, and which he personally seems to lament exactly what-went-on, i'm saying that the term ethics may be a little premature, as there is no 'community' to decide what ethical practices are.17:41
kanzureuh, there is a huge global community of biological organisms already17:42
kanzureway way way larger than any computing subculture17:42
juri_you're right, it is appeal to authority. thats how i've had ethics explained to my by those with PHDs, that take apart brains.17:42
juri_they wash their hands, by appealing to the authority of the ethics board.17:42
juri_I would welcome a better definition myself, if you have one.17:46
kanzurelogs/2008-08-03.log:15:39 < kanzure> ' For the transhumanist attitude, the reality of “working code” has a reality that other assertions about the world do not. Extreme transhumanism replaces the life-world with the world of the computer, where bad (ethically bad) ideas won’t compile.17:51
kanzurelogs/2012-11-05.log:08:09 < brownies> how ethical is my toothbrush?17:54
juri_this is the same sort of logic that ends in the invisible hand of the market.17:54
kanzurewhich logic?17:56
juri_you know, i'm minorly comforted that you don't have a good canned statement about ethics. it leads me to believe the difference between ethics and morals is not often debated here, which is a good thing, time-wise.17:56
juri_the first statement, about hoping to create a situation where unethical actions won't compile. it reminds me of the calls for a self-regulating market.17:57
juri_bad business decisions are made every day, but the market magically regulates, by eliminating any nonproductive decision makers (companies).17:58
juri_regulation through selection. do we want that in producers of artificial organisms, where their work is quite likely to out-live the company?17:58
kanzureregarding time-whatever, yes it's because we mostly ban discussion about ethics/morals because everyone is really bad at it18:01
juri_feel free to tell me to STFU then. :)18:01
kanzureno, it's not about hoping to create a situation where unethical actions don't compile. there are truly wrong things that will absolutely not work because they are physically impossible.18:01
kanzurei was just picking out quotes from the logs18:02
kanzurefor some reason i thought jrayhawk had left a reasonable summary of the shared ethics in here, but instead it was only blurbs about self-agency. oh well.18:02
juri_well, if theres a standard, other than 'what my agency will let me get away with' practiced (voluntarily of course) here, i'd be interested in seeing it.18:03
brownieskanzure: what?18:09
kanzurei am just busy being disappointed in my memory, that's all. in case it's not clear please do not break out into a debate about ethics of bacteria killing you or something.18:10
