dbolseranyone using meta/master/ether coin?06:26
dbolserI'm curious if they're practical systems or not06:26
dbolserapi/domain/comput coin etc06:26
dbolseranyone created an alt coin from scratch? Looking for a how to (just for fun)06:27
FourFireI wish coinmining would do folding@home06:27
FourFireor other *@home computation06:27
dbolserFourFire: that's the idea of compute coin I think...06:27
dbolserFourFire: else we can make it06:27
FourFirethe miners have so much computation which they are just turning into heat, it's insane06:28
dbolserFourFire: ok, lets make it06:28
dbolserproof of work is reproduceability06:28
dbolserthinking about asic resistant cryptographic proof of work algorithms?06:29
dbolserisnt' there some turing generator sort of solution that can create arbitrary algorithms?06:29

dbolserthey absorb light better...07:20
dbolserI can do that more cheaply...07:20
FourFiredbolser, cool, if you can write me the DNA sequence which will make that grow... I'll dedicate some portion of my life making photosynthetic human skin a thing07:23
dbolserpromote over three times higher photosynthetic activity than that of controls07:24
dbolser^^ that's a much stronger claim ;-)07:24
FourFire(and it will be a thing regardless, the only question is how long before it happens)07:24
dbolserFourFire: spinkle in black poweder, they'll absorb light better07:24
FourFireyeah, I'll need the DNA to make it grow it's own powder07:24
FourFireor dark pigment thingy07:25
dbolsersprinkling woudl be cheaper...07:25
dbolseranyway, the latter point wasn't made in the former article07:25
FourFirecheaper?07:25
FourFirerecursive cycles of growth using protein synthesis and other cellular chemical production methods seems pretty cheap on a large enough scale07:26
dbolsersure, but you have to factor in RnD07:26
FourFireyou could, hell, even make a virus which turns people into glucose producing people07:26
FourFireyeah, RnD is a major initial investment, but it's not a recurring cost, unless you are "upgrading"07:27
dbolseryu07:27
dbolseryup07:27
FourFireand the black powder needs to be inside the chlorophylls right?07:27
dbolseranybody eaten any criper c9?07:27
FourFireso it's a bit more refined than "sprinkling black powder"07:28
dbolserFourFire: the original article just said 'they absorb light better', which means nothing07:28
dbolserblack powder absorbs light good07:28
dbolserthe paper makes a much more interesting claim, it was just vague reporting that set me off07:28
FourFireoh right07:29

kanzure"I do have some early role models. I recall wanting to be a real-life version of the fictional "Sandor Arbitration Intelligence at the Zoo" (from Vernor Vinge's novel A Fire Upon the Deep) who in the story is known for consistently writing the clearest and most insightful posts on the Net. And then there was Hal Finney who probably came closest to an actual real-life version of Sandor at the Zoo, and Tim May who besides inspiring me with his ...13:21
kanzure... vision of cryptoanarchy was also a role model for doing early retirement from the tech industry and working on his own interests/causes."13:21

kanzure"It's Chinese Pinyin romanization, so pronounced "way dye". ETA: Since Pinyin is a many to one mapping, and as a result most Chinese articles about Bitcoin put the wrong name down for me, I'll take this opportunity to mention that my name is written logographically as 戴维."13:22

kanzureeudoxia: well, zindell recycled a lot of vinge stuff18:49
kanzureeudoxia: and i'm sure vinge was recycling a bunch of.. other stuff.18:49
eudoxiathe thing with zindell is that it's written very strictly from the point of view of the future18:53
eudoxiaand it's very hard to know if, for example, zindell knew about MNT or just sort of made it up18:53
eudoxiabecause the descriptions of things are so abstract18:53
kanzureeven if he did know about MNT he still would have written about it that way18:54
kanzuresome of his opinions are a little annoying- like no clocks or internet18:54
kanzure"why use internet when you can just use karma?"18:54
eudoxiai vaguely remember something about the timekeeping hoarding all the clocks18:55

eudoxiahttp://tmp2.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page ?19:01
kanzurestandard regiment not required.. "hoo hoo a giant computer in the sky, guess you guys didn't see that one coming"19:01
kanzureyes19:01
kanzurethat is a thing from eric hunting19:01
eudoxiadidn't know about it, thanks19:02
eudoxiahave you read simon funk's afterlife?19:02
kanzureno19:02
eudoxiahttp://sifter.org/~simon/AfterLife/ it's pretty good19:02
kanzuretbh most of the scifi that i should have read a long time ago i actually have not read19:03
eudoxiasame boat19:03
kanzurei just rely on you assholes to have read them for me19:03
sacredhatredeh19:04
sacredhatredI'm much to busy 3d printing jesuses to read19:05
sacredhatredpurple jesuses with lightning bolts on them!19:05

sacredhatredthat's the last book I read...19:15
kanzureeudoxia: no, i don't want to write a book for the sake of it, i just genuinely think that there's insufficiently good hard scifi around19:15
sacredhatredit was very strange19:15
sacredhatredI'm nobody :)19:15
eudoxiai should lock myself in a bunker for a few months without internet and finished my perpetually-WIP novel, but i'm afraid i'd just use the time to write code19:17
kanzurethe problem with orion's arm is that if you just dumped all its text into a book format it would be incomprehensible and slightly inconsistent19:18
eudoxiaby the time it was done, i'd emerge from the bunker to find we'd already reached mars and unified all fundamental forces19:18
kanzurethey try to maintain consistency by not contradicting themselves, but there are different levels of knowledge about technology in different articles19:19
-!- Vutral [~ss@mirbsd/special/Vutral] has joined ##hplusroadmap19:19
kanzureso one article talks about a certain type of tool, but then another seems completely unaware of the other19:19
sacredhatredyou guys make me want to get drunk19:19
kanzurewhy are you here?19:19
eudoxiai once read an article in OA about a downed probe using *quantum entanglement* to transmit data FTL19:19
WORLDWARTHREEfree booze19:20
sacredhatredheh19:20
eudoxiathat's cryoprotectant fluid19:20
kanzurehmm i thought orion's arm banned FTL stuff?19:20
sacredhatredi saw this channel on a "3d printing irc channel list"19:20
sacredhatredon google.19:20
eudoxiakanzure: which is why i was surprised19:20
kanzurethat's unfortunate19:21
kanzureand another example of why it's not suitable to be dumped straight into a book19:21
kanzureand all of the "short stories" are pretty suspicious too. it feels like none of the authors have read all of the other content.19:21
caterni read passages in the void a few days ago and it was pretty good hard sci-fi http://localroger.com/19:22
eudoxiai would pay good money for something set in a vaguely OA-like universe with the writing style of cordwainer smith19:22
eudoxiacause i really like cordwainer smith and i really like magnetic monopoles19:22
kanzurelink?19:27
caternkanzure: asking me? it was http://localroger.com/19:29
eudoxiait's pretty impossible to find his collected works, that was one of the two books i ever had to buy online19:29
kanzurecatern: nope, you had already provided a link19:30

kanzurei was making a joke about hplusroadmap19:43
kanzuresee, people in here tend to be aware of the bullshit in what others would consider fringe topics19:43
kanzureit is obscure to find people who generally participate in transhumanist projects but think that the way that transhumanism is presented or commonly tlaked about to be complete shit19:44
kanzureequally obscure would be an orion's arm fanclub19:44
kanzureor, even more obscure, a fanclub that thinks that orion's arm is insufficiently orion's-army19:44
eudoxiaor an eleitl fan club19:44

kanzure"Spoke to you yesterday at H+. I mentioned that I focus on MNT research."19:50
kanzure"You mentioned to me, among other things, that some people are trying to resurrect the Nanoengineer 1 code. I'd be very interested in that."19:51

eudoxiai remember seeing him in the logs, yes19:52
kanzurehmm i see some emails from him to debian-users19:52
eudoxiai think it overlapped with the period in ~2008 when eleitl was on here?19:52
kanzureand i know he's run the cryptography list with an iron fist19:52
kanzureeleitl wasn't around in here in 2008. it was only later that he started joining.19:53

kanzureinteresting. i don't see memory loss claims from the schizophrenics that come into here.20:06
