kanzure"No. A Dysoned star will not have a natural stellar spectrum: it will not look like a ball of cool plasma (absorption lines from various metals in the stellar atmosphere would be absent). If it is a cloud, it would be a mixture of a stellar spectrum with a cold black-body spectrum. It would look odd. But it might be missed because of its faintness or because the software is not looking for things like that. Thermodynamic efficiency ...09:04

kanzure"Robert’s thermal model for M-brains as dark matter never agreed with observation either.  We struggled mightily to explain how they could be sufficiently cool but I never could get the equations to go there.  For a few heady weeks back in 2011, I thought I had the answer: they could appear sufficiently cool by reflecting a very large fraction of the light in one direction.  Then it occurred to me there should be a few very bright ...09:05
kanzure... objects, M-brains which pointed their energy our way.  Again grasping at straws, I thought of Halton Arp’s work which suggested that quasars are associated with galaxies.  Perhaps quasars were M-brains spraying light directly at us.  Again the equations didn’t work, damn. Robert was never fully convinced by my entropy equations in any case, so it is unclear he ever completely abandoned the notion.  I need a good thermodynamic ...09:05
kanzure... simulation to really prove it out.  Reasoning: I think we as a species are near the technological capability level to start creating an M-brain. There was a silver lining to that cloud however: those same equations led me to realize that not only can an M-brain direct its energy, as far as I can tell, it must.  Otherwise it eventually overheats.  By the time I realized that however, Robert had already perished, which was late ...09:05

kanzure"Given the importance of phytochromes in key plant developmental processes, genetically manipulating phytochrome expression offers a promising approach to crop improvement. Photo-biotechnology refers to the transgenic expression of phytochrome transgenes or variants of such transgenes. Several studies have indicated that crop cultivars can be improved by modulating the expression of phytochrome genes."10:57
kanzure"The improved traits include enhanced yield, improved grass quality, shade-tolerance, and stress resistance. In this review, we discuss the transgenic expression of phytochrome A and its hyperactive mutant (Ser599Ala-PhyA) in selected crops, such as Zoysia japonica (Japanese lawn grass), Agrostis stolonifera (creeping bentgrass), Oryza sativa (rice), Solanum tuberosum (potato), and Ipomea batatas (sweet potato). The transgenic expression ...10:58

kanzuremy definition of "minimum viable nootropic" was something about a nootropic that enables a user (or is strongly likely to facilitate a user) designing, making and then consuming a better nootropic12:40

yoleauxSo you want to abolish time zones | Hacker News20:52
kanzure"With timezones, you can't just give the time, you must also give a location. "Time" doesn't exist with timezones, only "time-location"."20:52
kanzure"But of course the author want to know if he can call someone out-of-the-blue by knowing where he is. Well, if you can use google to tell you what is the time in another timezone, you can use google to tell you what is the usual waking hour in this location. You don't need additional information in this example."20:52
kanzure"With universal time, the worst case scenario is needing the same amount of information as we do today (current time + location). The best case scenario is having a sane way of communicating time."20:53
nmz787i guess people could also choose to have dual-time displayed... local and universal20:56
kanzurehaha "How does this help people coordinate? If your time is different from mine, how do we get to the same place at the same time?20:59

JayDuggerGood evening, everyone.21:41
JayDuggerHad a co-worker turn down a job at SpaceX a few months ago.21:41

JayDuggerSpaceX wanted 16-hour days out of their $60k/year contract-to-hire temps.21:42
JayDuggerNot the way to lure qualified people with families to your organization.21:43
fennthat's a lot of money for a temp21:44
fennalso a lot of hours21:44
JayDuggerThat's not a lot of money per hour for someone qualified for the job, unfortunately.21:45
JayDuggerHe's making that now by working an extra shift or so every week where he is now.21:45
JayDuggerWe might be talking past each other on "temp," though.21:46
JayDuggerThat would have been hiring a specialist on avionics.21:46
JayDuggerHalf the reason I didn't apply--I don't know avionics well enough. Other half being moving and 80-hour weeks would have placed unacceptable stress on my marriage.21:47
JayDuggerHe had this weird idea about wanting to help raise his four sons (8,6,4, and 1/2 YOA)21:49
JayDuggerResponsible parents--what next?21:49
fenncult leader21:50
fenncharismatic*21:50
JayDuggerHeh, heh.21:50
JayDuggerThat's funny three ways: Hubbard, Musk, and yeah--my co-worker's Mormon.21:51
abetuskkanzure, any thoughts on nanoengineer in docker?21:53
fennperfect, you'll have your own planet in no time21:54
genehackerdocker?21:54
genehackeris someone doing drug design?21:55
genehackeroh that sort of docker21:55
