kanzurewhat was the point of trying to measure someone's "shock" anyway08:29
FourFirekanzure, determine whether you can work with them for transhumanist progress plans08:30
kanzureso if they are experiencing "shock" by definition they are incapable of working on related engineering projects ?08:31
FourFireor whether they need more exposure to real hard transhumanist science/ speculative engineering since they're still on the reddit stargazer memespewer level08:31
kanzureyou may have more luck starting with people who are already working on transhumanist engineering projects instead08:33
FourFireI see it as a tool for sorting people you interact with into people worth spending time on, and people not worth that time, not so much as a mastabatory measure of elite nerdyness08:33

nmz787but I didn't know much14:24
nmz787just check out diyhpl.us14:25
nmz787if you spend a good hour there scanning you can get an overview of what's available here14:25
Evorili was thinking about genetic sequencing14:25
nmz787there are a bunch of pdfs and books14:25
Evorilso would do postgrad bioinformatics14:25

nmz787no one really likes degrees in here, though we immensely value education, self or institutional. We mainly care about focus.14:26
nmz787I think.14:26

Evorilok so the communitys primary focus is on what? research or enhancing metabolism/cognitive skills for personal 'pleasure'??14:30
nmz787'advancing' humanity14:31
caternhacking! the hacker spirit!14:31
nmz787we basically talk about all forms of science, tech, math14:31
Evorilyeah, well you are responsible for your studies, you won't become an expert just bc you attend college14:31
Evoriland like i said, i do lots of self-teaching14:31
Evorilmemorizing structural formulas from the rubber bible is my idea of fun&relaxation xd :D:D14:33
nmz787I am working on lab-on-a-chip stuff, always looking towards DNA synthesis, but doing lots of stuff from the ground up, so there are plenty of 'stepping stone' projects.14:34
Evorilok lets start w/ smth simple ok? :)14:35

kanzureEvoril: i need a cheap design for a ct scanner14:42
nmz787check out this paper and try to figure out if any of the promoters that were up/down regulated are unique and potentially useful for being hacked into turning on some other gene, say GFP... so that when the organism is pulsed with electricty it starts making GFP. http://diyhpl.us/~nmz787/pdf/Diversity_of_promoter_elements_in_a_Geobacter_sulfurreducens_mutant_adapted_to_disruption_in_electron_transfer.pdf14:42

kanzurewas this the one that began with the long sequence of mind maps and random chance?15:24
kanzureah yes "Diaspora begins with a description of "orphanogenesis", the birthing of a citizen without any ancestors (most citizens descend from fleshers uploaded at some point), and the subsequent upbringing of the newborn Yatima within Konishi polis. Yatima matures within a few real-time days, because citizens' subjective time runs about 800 times as rapidly as flesher and gleisner time. Early on, Yatima and a friend, Inoshiro, use ...15:25

Evoriltake care15:26
poppingtonicI think the "random chance" one was Schild's Ladder15:27
kanzure"Twenty-thousand years in the future, Cass, a humanoid physicist from Earth, travels to Mimosa orbital station and begins a series of experiments to test the extremities of the fictitious Sarumpaet rules, a set of fundamental equations in "Quantum Graph Theory," which holds that physical existence is a manifestation of complex constructions of mathematical graphs. However, the experiments unexpectedly create a bubble of something more ...15:28

fenni don't get the point of doing cell-free protein synthesis16:15
fennyou have to produce, purify, and assemble a bunch of stuff that any cell would do on its own16:16
fennyou have to add linear amounts of bio-reagents vs product, whereas any cell culture reproduces exponentially16:17
kanzure"CFPS has many advantages over the traditional in-vivo synthesis of proteins. Most notably, a cell free reaction, including extract preparation, usually takes 1 –2 days, whereas in-vivo protein expression may take 1–2 weeks. (Carlson ED, et al.)"16:21
kanzure"Cell-free protein synthesis (also called in-vitro protein synthesis or abbreviated CFPS), is the production of protein using biological machinery without the use of living cells. The in-vitro protein synthesis environment is not constrained by a cell wall or homeostasis conditions necessary to maintain cell viability. Thus CFPS enables direct access and control of the translation environment which is advantageous for a number of ...16:21
kanzure... applications including optimization of protein production, optimization of protein complexes, to study protein synthesis, incorporating non-natural amino acids, high-throughput screens, and synthetic biology."16:21
kanzure"CFPS is an open reaction. The lack of cell wall allows direct manipulation of the chemical environment. Samples are easily taken, concentrations optimized, and the reaction can be monitored. In contrast, once DNA is inserted into live cells, the reaction cannot be accessed until it is over and the cells are lysed." (meh this is a lie)16:21
kanzuretoxicity is an okay claim16:21
kanzure"A major application of CFPS is incorporation of non-natural amino acids into protein structures" but this works in vivo so this is not valid16:21

fennalso you can do this in a cell too16:23
kanzureone major reason is to increase the available types of mutations16:23
kanzureyes you can definitely do nonnatural amino acids in vivo16:23

fennvaguely16:27
kanzureprotein optimization is hard yo16:27
kanzurethat's usually left for directed engineering projects16:27
fennyou still need to get your ribosomes from somewhere, so it's not really "cell free"16:27

kanzurei had no idea that merrifield's chemical peptide synthesis was limited (by yield of each coupling reaction?) to ~70 amino acid residues16:30
kanzurethat's very short16:30

kanzureessentially both oligo synthesis and peptide synthesis is limited to very short things16:31
kanzureso my ribosome/tRNA method might work for arbitrarily long sequences16:31
kanzurethe downside is that it is only a protein, and not a genome16:31
kanzurei bet chemical peptide synthesis is also limited because of folding thta might happen in the reverse direction that breaks the sort of folding that usually happens16:33
kanzurewhen amino acid chains are extruded out of the butt pore of a ribosome16:34
kanzurethis would be especially useful if we had ideas for rational protein engineering that required very long sequences that are too expensive to make with oligo synthesis + ligations or w/e16:39
yashgarothehh you can usually refold it, the problem is purifying out a protein from a mixture of other proteins that look extremely similar minus one amino acid16:39
kanzuretalking about why cell-free is yuseful?16:40
yashgarothwhy chemical synthesis isn't, so I suppose yes16:40
yashgarothgotta say I mostly agree with fenn, cell-free of any type is mostly useful for either toxic proteins or niche directed evolution/array stuff16:41

yashgarothalso non-natural amino acids, which is doable in vivo but a lot easier cell-free; but that's a solution without a problem for now16:43

fennit's really weird that the state of new york uses the phrase "Fiat Currency"18:01
kanzuredepends on what your definition of "is" is18:02

kanzurefurther complications include things like "digital gift cards" and "physical-only gift cards through various mastercard/visa programs"18:03
kanzureusually the physical-only gift cards do not tell you enough information for online spending18:04
kanzurei guess you could look up gyft18:04
fennyou can sell physical gift cards18:04
fennthere's a 15% fee or something18:04

yoleaux"A virtual currency or virtual money has been defined in 2012 by the European Central Bank as "a type of unregulated, digital money, which is issued and usually controlled by its developers, and used and accepted among the members of a specific virtual community.":13" — http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_currency18:04
fennactually it's like 15% if you just type the code in, and 10% if you physically mail the card to them18:05
kanzure"In 2013, Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN), a bureau of the US Treasury defined virtual currency as "a medium of exchange that operates like a currency in some environments, but does not have all the attributes of real currency".[2]18:05

kanzureonce you achieve incumbency, switching strategies to regulatory capture is very rewarding18:08
fenni think a good principle is to assume freedom/permission unless it has been specifically removed (and for good reason)18:09
fennthis "everyone needs a license" culture is bullshit18:09
kanzureso a few bitcoiners elsewhere have recently informed me that one of the reasons that money transmitter licenses happen is because regulators and government agencies often demand the ability to directly meddle with your internal ledger18:10

fenncopyright also applies; you used to have to apply for a copyright, and the default was permissiveness. now it's all locked away even if you don't know who owns the automatically granted copyright18:11
fennfor example you are not legally allowed to copy logs with the words i am typing in right now18:11
kanzureah right public performance at least18:12
fenn(well actually i think i put all future posts by me in public domain a couple years ago)18:12
caternyou can probably repudiate that18:12
fennit would be meaningless if i could18:12
fenn"no take-backsies"18:13
fennkanzure: i dont get it; meddle with your ledger? is this like defining pi=3 again?18:13
kanzureer, i believe that exact example was used18:13
fennif you've spent the money it's gone18:13
kanzurehaha no18:14
fennthey can't just edit the ledger and make it reappear18:14
kanzureledger can say anything18:14

kanzureand yes, http://www.usmarshals.gov/assets/2014/dpr-bitcoins/18:17
fenni bet in 20 years they are going to be regretting that decision18:19
kanzurei believe they were legally required to sell them or something18:19
fennnah it's "evidence"18:19
kanzureas for the "pi = 3" stuff, see http://gnusha.org/bitcoin-wizards/2014-12-21.log18:20
kanzure12:45 < petertodd> kanzure: see, I'm saying that there are incentives to make centralized ledgers *insecure* even within conventional finance18:20
kanzure12:46 < petertodd> yeah, and the smartest regulators get that security lets you bypass the need for identity18:20
kanzure12:46 < petertodd> gmaxwell: also, note that "unbounded reversability" is also coupled with a desire to make it possible for that reversibility to be *secret*18:20
kanzure12:51 < petertodd> nsh: it's not that level of conspiracy stuff - you literally have to be able to accomodate courts ordering you to remove things off your ledgers in secret, among many other crazy requirements18:21
fenni dont understand why there isnt more public outcry about all this secret law stuff18:22
fennhow can you even pretend to have a democracy when you dont even know what the law is, in principle18:22
kanzurealso, didn't silent circle stop updating their secret court order canary the other day18:22
fenn"i pledge of allegiance, to honor the constitution and all the secret laws i don't know about"18:22
kanzurehttps://canary.silentcircle.com/18:23
kanzureah they updated on december 2518:23
kanzurefor a few days before they were 3 weeks late18:23
kanzure"Silent Circle LLC will also make available, weekly, a "warrant canary""18:23
fennwhat if they force you to say "i'm turning off this canary because it's a lot of work"18:23
kanzurethey could probably argue that it would cause lots of harm to their core business, etc18:24
fennor just force you to continue "business as usual" which includes updating the canary18:24
kanzurei don't actually see any message that they have not received a warrant on this page18:26
fennwtf they shut down their encrypted email service because " it was not possible to sufficiently secure email data."18:26
fennthat's pathetic18:26
kanzurewell they had courts ordering them to not do that18:26
kanzure(because of edward snowden- i think this was suspected at first, and then it was revealed later?)18:26
kanzurei mean, they had courts ordering them to become less secure18:27
fennright, if you look at the original source article it is because they didnt want to be forced to reveal keys or whatever18:27
* fenn fixes wikipedia18:27
kanzurethere were multiple things being said back and forth, hard for me to reconstruct the timeline correctly18:28
kanzurethe government was claiming that they only wanted headers from emails, and then later they wanted the private key, and silent circle was claiming they wanted the private key the whole time? something something18:28
kanzurewhere's mah spooks18:29
fennSilent Circle said specifically that it hadn’t actually received any “subpoenas, warrants, security letters, or anything else by any government” before shutting down, which leads to the troubling conclusion that the threat of action alone was enough to take an option off the market.18:30
fennall the spooks are in germany18:31
kanzurehm18:31
fennwow that was literally the next day, after the lavabit shutdown18:36
kanzurethey were pretty mad18:39
fennLevison wrote that after being contacted by the FBI, he was subpoenaed to appear in federal court, and was forced to appear without legal representation because it was served on such short notice; in addition, as a third party, he had no right to representation, and was not allowed to ask anyone who was not an attorney to help find him one. He also wrote that in addition to being denied a hearing18:40
fennregarding the warrant to obtain Lavabit's user information, he was held in contempt of court. The appellate court denied his appeal due to no objection, however, he wrote that because there had been no hearing, no objection could possibly have been raised. His contempt of court charge was also upheld on the ground that it was not disputed; similarly, he was unable to dispute the charge because18:40
fennthere had been no hearing to do it in. He also wrote that "the government argued that, since the 'inspection' of the data was to be carried out by a machine, they were exempt from the normal search-and-seizure protections of the Fourth Amendment."18:40
fennthis is straight out of a kafka story18:41
fennThe court records show that the FBI sought Lavabit's SSL private key. Levison objected saying that the key would allow the government to access communications by all 400,000 customers of Lavabit. He also offered to add code to his servers that would provide the information required just for the target of the order. The court rejected this offer since it would require the government to trust Mr.18:43
fennLevison and stated that just because the government could access all customers' communication did not mean they would be legally permitted to do so. Lavabit was ordered to provide the SSL key in machine readable format by noon, August 5 or face a fine of $5000 per day. Levison closed down Lavabit 3 days later.18:43
fennthis "a machine did it" argument is pretty dangerous18:43
fenn"oops we blew up your house, but a drone did it so it's okay"18:44
kanzureoh right, the reason why gibson assembly isn't an answer is because it increases your costs dramatically18:48
fennhow's that18:49
kanzureat a milion pixes with that much overlap you get maybe 20-30 unique bp per pixel18:49
nmz787fenn: up for finishing that laser etcher parts list? I really don't have an intuitive idea of what parts were missing... currently I think the easiest solution for lasers is an optical sled directly from a blu-ray drive... close working distance (around a millimeter) but the spot size is near diffraction limit and they're available.18:49
kanzureespecially if you need 20 to 40 bp overlap per pixel18:49
kanzure*pixels18:49
nmz787gibson doesn't seem too expensive18:49
kanzureat a million pixels you only get 20-30 bp per pixe18:49
fennnmz787: i think the mandate for that laser etcher has long since expired; the original parameters were way too ambitious anyway18:49
kanzureso at most 30 million bp18:49
nmz787fenn: what do you mean? I was looking at it a few nights ago and it seemed reasonable still18:50
kanzure*pixel18:50
nmz787I even found a class paper that used the same rod18:50
nmz787the threaded one18:50
kanzureit was superceded by dmd18:50
nmz787so you chose well!18:50
nmz787nah18:50
fennnmz787: there's really no need to etch a 100mm x 100mm microfluidics chip, or whatever it was18:50
nmz787no way18:50
nmz787I just bought this 38mm x 38mm CNC laser etcher for $120 but you can't easily change the threaded rods or motors18:51
nmz787also it would be useful for microscopy or something18:51
nmz787you were only a few parts from it being complete i thought18:52
nmz787something about pillow blocks maybe18:52
nmz787kanzure: dmd was deprecated because of inter-pixel noise18:53
nmz787we'd need a piezo vibrator to jiggle the stage with DMD to smooth out the inter-pixel dead zones18:54
fennwhat's with cellphones and the camera lens sticking out18:55
nmz787$5 rail to rail i2c DAC for controlling the laser sled focus http://www.adafruit.com/product/93518:55
nmz787I got an S4 Zoom for my dad a few weeks ago18:55
nmz787it has a 10X optical zoom18:56
nmz787http://axeetech.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/galaxy-s4-zoom_0.jpg18:56
fennis that a camera or a phone18:56
fennwhere's bill clinton18:57
kanzureneither, it's a computer18:57
fennand korzybski18:57
nmz787he has a nokia candybar tracfone now which is his, like, second cell phone ever18:58
fenni like the design of the sony QX100, it's too bad sony had to be the first one to do it though...18:58
nmz787yeah I think I read it wasn't as good18:59
nmz787maybe something about dust?18:59
fenndust?18:59
kanzurethe other problem with gibson assembly is that it doesn't get the price down far enough anyway18:59
fennthe point of the QX10 and QX100 is they are just the lens and image sensor; all the UI stuff is an android app19:00
fennthis means the sensor is matched to the lens, and you never have "lens compatibility" issues19:00
nmz787gibson is basically just cooperative ligation though19:01
nmz787what sounds so expensive about that?19:01
fennlike nikon vs canon lens mount, what a stupid problem19:01
kanzuresource material19:01
kanzureis what is expensive in this case19:01
nmz787hmm, maybe I didn't see the QX100 before19:01
nmz787hrmp19:01
kanzuremoo19:02
nmz787kanzure: I aim to have them right next to each other on the chip19:02
fennthe way you connect to it is kinda dumb; it acts like a wifi access point and you choose it from the phone as your internet, so you can't use the internet while using the lens19:03
fenninstead of bluetooth, which would actually make sense19:03
nmz787 oh19:03
nmz787that's weird19:03
nmz787wi-gig going forward maybe?19:04
fennis that a thing19:04
fenn.wik wi-gig19:04
kanzurei am still upset about our differences in engineering estimation19:04

kanzurealso i have no idea what you are talking about re: "next to each other"19:04
nmz787i saw a demo day with a bunch of stuff a few months ago19:04
fennwouldnt 60GHz have line of sight issues19:04
nmz787HD displays and such19:04
nmz787yeah19:04
nmz787but like in your livingroom or studio apt, no prob they suppose19:05
fenna lot of new stuff has dual band wifi, so maybe one antenna can handle multiple connections on different bands19:05
nmz787and for things like public high def multimonitor workstations19:06
fennexisting phones have no reason to do that though (at least according to the manufacturers that be)19:06

kanzure"Panamanian biologist Aradio Rodaniche first reported the Pacific striped octopus in 1991 off the coast of Nicaragua, noting its strange behavior—living in groups of possibly up to 40, laying multiple egg clutches, and mating face-to-face and sucker-to-sucker. Most other octopus species, for instance, come together only to mate. But scientists didn't see another one of these curious octopuses for another 20 years, when Richard Ross, a ...19:07

nmz787do you have use for that?19:08
fenni dont know what you're talking about19:08
kanzureusually when fenn disagrees he has a good reason19:08
kanzurepaying him to do something he thinks is stupid is not a good plan19:08
nmz787it doesn't seem stupid to me, and he seemed to understand what it needed19:09

nmz787so19:09
nmz787:/19:09
nmz787why can19:10
nmz787why can't i be me?19:10
fenn1) i don't want to build a microfluidic dna synthesizer 2) a chip requried to do so wouldn't be nearly so big 3) microscope stages have adequate performance for the task 4) DMD masks are adequate for the task19:10
kanzurejust because something does not seem stupid doesn't mean it's not stupid, obviously19:10
nmz787$500 for a DIY stepper is not unreasonable19:10
nmz787fenn DMD masks are not sufficient19:10

nmz787well ok19:15
nmz787if you reduce with a scope enough the DMD image19:15
nmz787and over-represent the size of the minimum feature size you aim for with multiple pixels19:15
nmz787then DMD works19:16

nmz787but you need to step around19:16
nmz787but I still don't have a proceter to scope adapter19:16
nmz787projector*19:16
nmz787btc for that?19:16
fennis like $50 on ebay19:16
kanzurehe's going to mail you a pvc pipe with a passive aggressive sticky note or something19:17
fennmake sure it's a black pvc pipe19:17
nmz787well I would like a share-able CAD for CNC or 3D printing19:17
nmz787or  CAD of the PVC pipe19:17
nmz787I have the projector kanzure mailed me all ready to go except for a blue laser with focusable optics19:18
nmz787that has been ready for like a year and a half19:18
fennoh another thing to think about is using a cellphone screen as the light source19:19
nmz787but I literally didn't know what to do to get it on my scope19:19
fennit's slower but more obtainable19:19
kanzurethere's something to be said for not encouraging nmz787 to be doing one-offs19:19
nmz787I have an HD cellphone19:19
fennwell phones are mostly the same shape, and there's going to be some bodging no matter what shape it is19:20
nmz787apparently a screen is around $50 on ebay19:20
fennso you can design around a general phone shaped flat thing19:20
kanzurefenn: i meant for an overall engineering artifact19:20
kanzure"i bought this shit on ebay that you're never going to be able to find again" is not a good strategy19:20
fennoh, hm19:20
nmz787and I have o get mine replaced tomorrow, I am going to ask to keep the old screen (shattered the glass, though touch and pixels are all good and working)19:20
fenni dont know how to deal with that problem19:20
fennmicroscopes and projectors don't come in standard shapes and optics19:21
kanzureacme threaded stuff are a good example of an okay part19:21
nmz787yes19:21
kanzuremicroscopes are highly standardized19:21
kanzureapparently they all come out of the same factory19:21
fenndud there are a bazillion optics threads19:21
kanzurehrm19:21
fennthere's a guy who makes a living just making custom adapters for cameras and microscopes19:21
kanzurethat's because of the camera side, right?19:22
fenni doubt it19:22
kanzureunfortunate19:22
fenni don't have a pile of microscopes to go check either19:22
nmz787also cell phones aren't 405nm, and the cheap photoresist are often sensitive to 365nm19:22
nmz787or as close to that as possible19:22
fennRoyal Microscopical Society (RMS) thread, also known as society thread, is a special 0.8" diameter x 36 thread-per-inch (tpi) Whitworth thread form used for microscope objective lenses.19:23
fennyuck19:23
nmz787a CNC with laser is more standard I think19:23
fennwhat is the goal here again?19:23
kanzure$1/genome19:24
nmz787fenn: I bought this, just CD-ROM drives I think http://www.ebay.com/itm/Mini-Laser-200-250mW-Engraving-Machine-DIY-Carving-Logo-Picture-Marking-Printer/26159152609119:24
fennkanzure: synthesis?19:24
kanzurecustom genomes19:24
kanzureyes19:24
nmz787I am thinking I can make a manifold for macro to micro, which can interface with a silicon chip with nanochannel and electrodes.19:24
nmz787or other substrate19:25
kanzurebut also, a general method of cheaply making microfluidic devices would be useful19:25
nmz787but I read PDMS isn't easy to add electrodes to19:25
kanzureand a dmd setup would be useful for planar "micro"electronics19:25
nmz787I was thinking maybe using DNA to form DNA-sized nanochannels19:25
nmz787because you could "etch" it somewhat afterward with acid/base19:26
fennprettyworthshop needs a higher resolution test pattern and image of suchlike19:26
nmz787yeah I hope their 0.01mm number is near true19:27
nmz787or maybe that is with microstepping19:27
nmz787grbl seems configurable too19:27
fenna circle would be good to check for backlash, parallel lines to check repeatability, so a spiral would be a good compromise19:27
fennyou know there's a difference between accuracy and "output resolution" right19:28
fennhuh i didnt expect that to be made in shenzhen19:28
nmz787https://github.com/grbl/grbl/blob/615093ccd2a9bd63f1ecd29c464f032000f5e626/defaults.h#L5019:29
fennit's all open source hardware modules19:29
nmz787I think that is the relevant line for resolution19:29
nmz787yeah19:30
nmz787the other option was some weird possibly windows only software19:30
fennnmz787: accuracy depends on the entire machine, from positioning mechanics to optics to CAM software19:32
fennoutput resolution is just an arbitrary number19:32
nmz787fenn: fig 5 http://www.intelligentmp.com/Downloads/Technical%20Papers/SF-100%20Greyscale%20Paper.pdf19:34
fennhmm these projectors are so cheap now it might even make sense to just use them as monitors19:36
fennit would be cool to have a fiber optic heliostat that pipes light through an lcd projector playing some content-free pictures like 'sunrise earth'19:38
fenner s/lcd/dlp/19:38
nmz787but then there is this paper, which is almost an order of magnitude in scale, so if the optical system didn't change, the features are over-represented (and they also don't show AFM here) http://www.intelligentmp.com/Downloads/Technical%20Papers/3D%20Structures%20Patterning%20In%20SU8.pdf19:39

kanzure"Hatchling #23 found dead, dried above the water line."19:52
fennit's a conspiracy19:52
kanzure"6 left from the first clutch, and 20 or so from the second."19:52
fenni thought they died after laying eggs19:54
kanzurethis subspecies lays multiple eggs and even travels in groups19:55
kanzureor lives in groups, rather19:55
kanzureof 4019:55
fennwhy was the paper never published?19:56
kanzure"Rodaniche’s descriptions of the behavior of this species were so outside the norm of what biologists at the time thought octopuses did, they were dismissed by other cephalopod biologists. Unable to pass peer review, the manuscript was never published and the animal was forgotten."19:57

fenn"DNA isothermal amplification method"20:15
fennhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loop-mediated_isothermal_amplification20:17
kanzure"loop primers"20:19
kanzure"LAMP has been observed to be less sensitive than PCR to inhibitors in complex samples such as blood, likely due to use of a different DNA polymerase (typically Bst DNA polymerase rather than Taq polymerase as in PCR)."20:19
fennits like phage rolling replication20:19
kanzure"LAMP is useful primarily as a diagnostic or detection technique, but is not useful for cloning or myriad other molecular biology applications enabled by PCR. Because LAMP uses 4 (or 6) primers targeting 6 (or 8) regions within a fairly small segment of the genome, and because primer design is subject to numerous constraints, it is difficult to design primer sets for LAMP "by eye". Free, open-source[16] or commercial software packages ...20:20
kanzure... are generally used to assist with LAMP primer design, although the primer design constraints mean there is less freedom to choose the target site than with PCR."20:20
kanzurehmm20:20
fennbeats the hell out of trucking ebola samples back to "the lab" because they don't have electricity in rural liberia20:22
fenn(nevermind that batteries exist)20:22
* fenn facepalms again20:22
fennmake it stop!20:23
fennthis article really needs an infographic20:24
kanzurea story about an octopus on a genocide mission https://www.tonmo.com/community/pages/tankmates/20:24
fennhttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC102748/figure/gnd064f1/ not the best graphic ever...20:24
nmz787it seems like you need at least 6 to 12 primers20:25
fennok i was wrong, it's not like rolling replication20:27
nmz787I wonder if the rRNA sites are stable enough to support that many probes20:28
nmz787I guess you would want more specific probes to identify different species20:28
fenni dont get why DLP megapixels arent keeping pace with camera megapixels or even LCD megapixels20:30
fenna <$1k iPad has 2048*1536 = 3MP  vs a $8k projector with the same resolution20:33
fennmeanwhile cameras are pushing 40MP20:35
kanzureprobably limited market pressure20:37

fennthe silly thing is you an just put a LCD screen in front of a big fresnel lens and a light bulb20:39
fennand tada 3MP projector, or whatever resolution LCD panel you have20:39
fenni got a flashlight and some magnifying glasses from the dollar store...20:41
nmz787they're MEMS20:48
nmz787they're MEMS20:48

nmz787different fab process20:49
kanzurehere's a possibly evil thing.... if commercial schools exist, why isn't there commercial buying/selling of degrees?20:53

kanzureoh they didn't even synthesize it in house?21:05
kanzure"The researchers started building their synthetic chromosome by going DNA shopping. They bought from a company more than 1000 1080-base sequences that covered the whole M. mycoides genome; "21:05

kanzureso i guess that's really only $330,000 in synthesis costs21:07
kanzureif they were paying $0.30/bp21:07
kanzurewhich sounds right for the time21:07
kanzureso what was the other $40 million for21:08
kanzuredefinitely wasn't paying everyone $200k/year21:09
