eleitlhowdy, kanzure.08:52
eleitl#collapse has been not very active lately08:52
kanzuresorry to hear that08:53
eleitlThe quality is also getting lower. Perhaps all that what needed to be said has been said.08:53

eleitlI'm suscribed to bitcoin-dev, but only read it sporadically08:55
eleitlActually, just in case to not miss something important, like the threat of a hard fork and developer wars.08:55
eleitlIt's good that the general press has yet caught wind of it.08:56
-!- JayDugger [~jwdugger@108.19.186.58] has joined ##hplusroadmap08:56
eleitlBecause that would cause real damage to the Bitcoin ecosystem.08:56
kanzurea lot of these issues are surprisingly familiar to my interests08:56
kanzurewell not so surprising08:56
kanzureauthorityless project development is just the name of the game around these parts08:57
eleitlBitcoin should be run by a benevolent dictator for life.08:58
kanzureno08:58
kanzurethat is trivial to defeat08:58
kanzurejust threaten the BDFL08:58
-!- Madplatypus [uid19957@gateway/web/irccloud.com/x-jjeugvihpthzeafi] has joined ##hplusroadmap08:58
eleitlAssuming, you know who BDFL is.08:58
eleitlThe problems created by adding more people in the control loop scale exponentially.08:59
-!- ebowden [~ebowden@128.250.233.154] has quit [Ping timeout: 250 seconds]08:59
kanzurethe control loop is the wrong model09:00
eleitlYou see this in cryonics, too.09:00
eleitlDecisions by commitees are just bad.09:00
kanzurethere is no committee09:00
eleitlThe larger the commitee, the worse.09:00
kanzureanyone telling you otherwise is lying to you09:00
kanzurewho do you think the committee is right now?09:00
kanzurewhere is it?09:00
kanzurepoint me to it09:00
eleitlI don't know how checkin privilege control is implemented.09:01
kanzurewhy would commit access matter here?09:01
eleitlWho can revoke privileges?09:01
kanzureno, you're talking about a source code repository09:01
kanzurethat's a different topic09:01
kanzure(anyone can have their own source code repository; and it can be maintained using whatever social strategy)09:02
eleitlIn the end, there's power in who controls the standard depositories, and who can check in code which makes it to the stage where it can be published.09:02
kanzureanyone can publish anything they want09:02
eleitlPeople run clients, clients come from a location, and there's implicit trust involved.09:02
kanzurewell then the whole network is doomed if it's only based on trust09:02
kanzureand my argument is that it's not based on trust09:02
kanzureit's based on deterministic builds and self-validation of the rules09:02
kanzureeveryone is personally responsible for deciding whether they think the rules are safe, and they are responsible for communicating flaws that they perceive09:03
kanzure(same goes for improvements)09:03
eleitlDo the current clients run on determinstic builds?09:03
kanzuresome of them- like the bitcoin core project, yeah09:03
eleitlSo I can build the client from source locally, and it results in the same hash?09:04
kanzurewell, you have to do some setup first regarding gitian but yes09:04
eleitlThat's good. Who's signing the binaries, and who is publishing these?09:04
kanzurethere are many people publishing deterministic builds on their own09:04
eleitlWhere do most people download from?09:05
kanzurei think your question should be, "is there anyone who thinks that they are safe running bitcoin software without checking the rules for themselves?" and the answer is sadly yes....09:05
eleitlI would say 90%+ are getting them from here https://bitcoin.org/en/download09:05
-!- erasmus [~esb@unaffiliated/erasmus] has joined ##hplusroadmap09:06
kanzurequite possibly09:06
kanzurehowever, that's not necessarily safe09:06
eleitlSo whoever has control over that, and if there's no huge public stink poisoning that well over the long has the control on the majority of clients09:06

kanzurenope09:07
kanzurethey can't force installs09:08
-!- delinquentme [~delinquen@74.61.157.78] has joined ##hplusroadmap09:08
kanzureand users that don't check hashes aren't operating safely anyway09:08
kanzureand users that don't check rules aren't operating safely anyway09:08
eleitlPeople are installing on their own.09:09
eleitlA year might be not enough, but a couple years control of standard download location defines what the majority of clients run.09:09
eleitlUnless https://bitcoin.org/en/download pulls a sourcefrog.09:10
eleitlOperating safely is irrelevant, because you can't force people to do that.09:10
kanzureso your argument is that security is impossible?09:11
eleitlMy argument is that you need to keep this very centralistic.09:11
eleitlIf you allow multiple meddling points, the fork is unavoidable.09:11
eleitlThis is very similar to trying to make cryonics work.09:12
eleitlFailure is default, unless your inner circle is small and has clue.09:12
eleitlThis is going to become very interesting.09:13
eleitlIn the centralist approach you would fire the uppity devs.09:14
kanzurethe whole network is non-centralistic09:14
kanzurewhy would you make it centralistic?09:14
eleitlIf you can't fire him you've got your answer already.09:14
kanzurea fork is unavoidable if you centralize it because law enforcement will force you to change09:14
eleitlLaw enforcement has no control on unknown entities, which are not even operating on the public Internet.09:14
kanzurewho is that?09:15
eleitlSatoshi should have pulled a Linus, only remaining in shadows.09:15
eleitlHe would bless the patches, or reject them.09:15
kanzurewhy would that not centralize the network?09:16
eleitlOf course, if TLAs are after you that is hard to remain hidden.09:16
eleitlThe network should be distributed. The control of what the clients run, at least the official blessing, should be in very few hands.09:16
eleitlI realize this sounds weird, so I guess we've definitely got problems.09:17
kanzurei don't see any way to preserve mission integrity in that scenario09:17
eleitlThe assumption is that the original designer has clue.09:17
eleitlEverybody trusts Linus.09:17
eleitlAt this stage, Linus has deputies.09:18
kanzurefor example: we already have someone claiming to be the BDFL, and threatening a change that is very obviously going to break the network09:19
eleitlBut, Bitcoin is small enough that you could have a single dictator for life. Including a succession sequence, dead man switch, and the like.09:19
eleitlYou cannot usurp BDFL. This is something which can be only inherited from the original designer, if you're not the original designer.09:20
eleitlIf Satoshi is dead or has lost interest, there's a problem.09:20
eleitlI don't like this situation.09:20
eleitlIf Bitcoin breaks other cryptocurrencies will have much more trouble.09:21
eleitlKanzure, what is your opinion about Ethereum?09:21
eleitlIs this thing on?09:29
JayDuggerIt's on. Just all on the edge of our seats, awaiting an answer.09:31
eleitlO hai. Long time no see.09:31
eleitlWhat's up with you?09:32
JayDuggerHappily middle-aged and married.09:32
eleitlSounds just like me.09:32
eleitlStill waiting for the sky to fall, though.09:32
eleitlLuckily, it's taking its sweet time with it.09:33
JayDuggerWell said.09:33
eleitlAre you still a card-carrying transhumanist, or is it more of a hobby?09:34
JayDuggerOptimism is easy in good days, pessimism easy in hard times.09:34
JayDuggerDeclined to hobby status, though my wife and I did have the cryonics conversation before we got engaged.09:34
JayDuggerNeither of us signed up for it, but she has no objections to it and no "Ick!" response.09:35
eleitlWe've had a considerable meltdown with cryonics in Germany.09:35
JayDuggerHow so?09:35
kanzurecard-carrying is not recommended09:35
eleitlHijacked by Temple of the Vampire, if you can believe that.09:35
kanzureeleitl: ethereum opinion is presently negative09:35
JayDuggerYeah, learning that only cost me one friendship. Then I learned to shut up about it unless asked.09:35
JayDugger.wik Temple of the Vampire09:36
yoleaux"I Love a Mystery was a radio drama series about three friends who ran a detective agency and traveled the world in search of adventure. Distinguished by the high octane scripting of Carlton E. Morse, the program was the polar opposite of Morse's other success, the long-running One Man's Family." — http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I_Love_a_Mystery09:36
eleitlkanzure: technical design, or governance, or both?09:36
kanzureall of the above09:36
kanzureand some other concerns09:36
eleitlMy uninformed opinion is the same, Kanzure.09:36
eleitlThe German org got split by the takeover.09:37
kanzurewhat resources did the organization have?09:37
eleitlWhich is good, a cleaning thunderstorm. We know where we stand with each group.09:37
JayDuggerAlso well said.09:37
eleitlAt the moment of the takeover, equipment, and AFAIK some 12 kEUR in cash.09:37
eleitlFocus is now in the north, Berlin-Dresden axis.09:37
eleitlSouth is now empty, but there are some noises from Switzerland.09:38
eleitlSwitzerland has the potential for legal option for active shutdown.09:38
eleitlPlus, great jurisdiction for hiding and transporting your wealth across time.09:39
kanzurei am so sad to hear when everyone squabbles over 12k cash09:39
eleitlThe cash is irrelevant.09:39
eleitlIt's good that it blew up, we know who's who now.09:39
eleitlOn the negative side, people still don't understand what it takes to create a competent service.09:40
eleitlSo we're back to the governance question.09:40
eleitlIf too many people are in control, the result is a failure.09:40
kanzurei think it's a little odd that you see this as a people in control thing09:41
eleitlThe bootstrap of the 1970s in the US is IMO not repeatable elsewhere, at this day and age.09:41
kanzurewhat evidence do you have that the network is based on authority?09:41
kanzureyour only comment so far has been "well because users are unlikely to check the rules"09:41
kanzurebut if users are unlikely to check the rules, then we're even more doomed; no possible system design would fix that09:41
eleitlI don't have evidence, only knowledge how people operate.09:41
eleitlYes, we might be quite possibly doomed. Too early to tell, though.09:42
kanzurei think that it is likely that there is a solution that nobody has imagined09:42
kanzureone example is that some bitcoin developers were planning to hash the rules, and the hash would be the name of the system09:42
kanzureso if the rules change then the name of the system changes09:42
kanzureso you would only use the rules that tell you the right name09:43
eleitlI don't think Satoshi was thinking about details of the governance09:43
kanzurehe probably believed that governance was a central point of failure09:43
eleitlHe could have built an autoupdate function, from P2P itself.09:43
kanzurepfft not safely09:43
eleitlIt would be a failure, if he was a public figure. He wasn't.09:43
eleitlNot safely, but good enough.09:44
eleitlEach node a full client, each node also a P2P streaming infrastructure, for the blockchain, and for the client.09:44
eleitlI think a lot of the current situation is unplanned.09:45
eleitlThere was considerable luck involved.09:45
eleitlIf you want to make cryonics work, you need own money, while also having clue.09:47
eleitlStatistically improbable.09:47
eleitlAll the people with money had strong notions, and no clue at all.09:47
eleitlThese, which I had the pleasure to deal with, which was a small set. But I'm told the bigger set is just the same.09:48
eleitl1970s US did self-bootstrap.09:48
eleitlIt is much harder to self-bootstrap 2015, in part time. The world is just not the same.09:48
JayDuggerWhat differences matter most?09:49
JayDuggerThe Cold War comes to mind as a difference, but I don't know whether that's what you've in mind.09:49
eleitlIt was time of growth, of people believing in progress, of being monomaniac fanatics.09:49
fennhear hear09:50
eleitlIf you ever tried to fund cryonics out of own pocket on normal salary you realize it is very hard now.09:50
eleitlYoung people are not interested, at all.09:50
JayDuggerOkay, that makes sense.09:50
eleitlDangerous ideas, no-how.09:50
eleitlThey tinker with computers, not animals.09:50
eleitlIn fact, tinking with animals or ordering drugs will get you a visit from the police, or worse.09:51
eleitlThis is different in Asia, but social structure is very different in Asia.09:51
eleitlYou can do whatever you want. But you don't want, for some reasons.09:51
eleitlSo, I think today you have to have the miracle of a person with enough money, and also clue.09:52
eleitlMaybe kanzure will make lots of $$$s, and make it his life goal.09:52
JayDuggerKanzure, get hot.09:52
eleitlOr somebody else we don't know about.09:52
eleitlWorking with cryptocurrency in finance is pretty hot.09:53
eleitlAnd I have to leave in 5 min. Less hot.09:53
JayDuggerYeah, I need to go to bed too. Glad to hear from you though.09:53

kanzure"blackmail paradox" http://www.aish.com/jw/me/97755479.html11:48
CaptHindsightkanzure: what companies, labs or groups are actively working on those problems?11:49
CaptHindsightI was talking to the head of additive manufacturing research at a national laboratory yesterday and I was really let down by his lack of understanding of the tech and materials......11:52
CaptHindsightthat got me thinking about how few people are actually working on anything like what you mention above11:53
kanzurei would not expect additive manufacturing people to know about chemical synthesis11:57
kanzurei would estimate that very few people are working on these projects11:57
kanzureusually it's some grad student in some lab that gets around to cobbling together some equipment or something11:57
kanzurewhich he then proceeds to never document11:57
kanzurehttp://bioinformatics.org/pogo/11:58
kanzureeven a little bit of engineering goes a long way11:58
kanzureif you write up a short proposal for making dna synthesis equipment, i have cash11:58
kanzureand as long as we can agree about some of the licensing details (open-source) then i think there's a good chance of stuff happening11:58
kanzure(open-source is insufficient for licensing details of course)11:59
CaptHindsightmy point was that I don't really know anyone anymore that actually doing research on these problems12:02
CaptHindsightif they have not much is made public12:02
CaptHindsightkanzure: lets chat about the Inkjet Microarrayer12:05
CaptHindsightit looks like it has a primary and a secondary "printhead"12:06
CaptHindsightit also has 7 reagent solenoids12:06
CaptHindsightthe Epson printhead has 6 channel, so it can hold 6 different fluids isolated from each other12:09
CaptHindsightit also uses a laser to verify that drops have been ejected12:11
CaptHindsightso this is what I would call a flatbed inkjet printer that is cnc controlled12:12
CaptHindsightit is contained in a sealed nitrogen filled enclosure12:13

kanzurethe enclosure is rather unfortunate in my opinion; i think there should be a way to do it more like https://www.takeitapart.com/guide/9412:13
CaptHindsighthow many do you want and when do you want them?  :)12:13
kanzurewell, i want just one, but i want it to be repeatably buildable by others12:14
CaptHindsightwhat else would you change?12:14
kanzuredevelopment budget can be larger but the final system cost should be something cheap cheap cheap (e.g. most of these things cost >$20k or >$100k which is bullshit)12:14
kanzurewell, it should have easily upgraded firmware, so not really firmware :-)12:14
kanzureit should not be designed by monkeys12:14
kanzureit should not have impossible-to-acquire parts12:14
CaptHindsightit can run Linuxcnc and use a PC for control12:15
kanzurethat's fine with me, although linuxcnc might be overkill or unnecessary12:15

kanzurefor something like https://www.takeitapart.com/guide/94 i don't think there's any reason to use linuxcnc, but i think using linux is important here, yes12:15
CaptHindsightwell it's free, works and is supported12:15
kanzurelinuxcnc does valve control stuff?12:15
CaptHindsightand has room to grow when you want to have 1000 channels12:16
kanzureplease continue typing things but my responses are going to be delayed, sorry dude12:16
CaptHindsightyes, you can control just about anything with it12:16
CaptHindsightno problem12:16
CaptHindsightthat is how IRC should work  :)12:16
CaptHindsightEpson heads come with every Epson printer12:18
kanzureinkjet or not doesn't really matter to me; it seems easier to keep the ABI under argon pressure than a giant enclosure12:18
kanzurealso, using beads and lasers would be very convenient, but understandable if that design is presently incomprehensible12:18
CaptHindsight6 -8 color heads for aqueous fluids are found in printers from ~$100 -$80012:19
CaptHindsightlasers are no problem12:19

CaptHindsightthe only trick with using Epson heads is making a board that drives them12:20
CaptHindsightpeople retrofit the Epson printers all the time but they use the included drive boards and work around their issues12:20
-!- ThomasEgi_ [~thomas@2a02:810b:33f:dc18:d869:caaf:258:8775] has joined ##hplusroadmap12:20
CaptHindsightso an open source printhead driver board is the only board that needs to be designed12:21
kanzurethere was a trick regarding the actual inkjet head that they used in that project; e.g. there was only a certain kind that was compatible, and epson no longer manufactures it. check the pdfs and search for the part number.12:23
CaptHindsightI know the Epson heads.........12:23
CaptHindsightwhat was unique about the fluids?12:23
CaptHindsightare they all aqueous?12:24
CaptHindsightI also work with 100 other printheads, Xaar, Spectra, RPSA, Seiko etc etc12:24
CaptHindsightthe The F057020 print head used was available through some 3rd party12:26
CaptHindsightpage 6 chapter 1, I think he just wrote it in a odd way that makes it sound like it was a uniquely chosen head12:27
CaptHindsightthe Epson heads are gray scale12:28
CaptHindsightdepending on model they can start at 2 or 4pl and then fired multiple drops that form into one drop so 4, 8, 12 ,16, 20 and 24pl are all possible with the same head12:29
CaptHindsightEpson heads are the cheapest piezo heads and barely work even as desktop printer heads12:30
CaptHindsightI'm trying to start manufacturing piezo heads in China12:31
CaptHindsightthere are no China made heads yet except for thermal inkjet12:31
CaptHindsightthey used a National Instruments board for control12:33
CaptHindsightwe can use the Mesa FPGA boards12:33
CaptHindsightI don't design machines using threaded rod and hot melt for positioners12:35
-!- flamoot [~yaaic@104-153-138-237.ip.tor.radiant.net] has joined ##hplusroadmap12:37
kanzurewhat's wrong with threaded rods?12:38
CaptHindsighthttp://imagebin.ca/v/25h1hJ5xxunN  a 3 axis stage like this is a few hundred $$12:38
kanzurei am having trouble evaluating your statement, is that good or bad?12:39
CaptHindsightballscrews and linear bearings12:39
CaptHindsightis a few hundred $ low cost enough for it to last without needing adjustments for a few years of daily use?12:40
kanzureis that a rhetorical question? i'm sorry, i'm really confused.12:40
kanzureyes, systems should be designed for at least multiple years of nearly-constant use12:40
CaptHindsightI'm looking for your opinion12:40
CaptHindsighton cost and reliability12:41
kanzurereliability is important, cost is sorta important, i mean the cost of development is less important to me, but final cost for others to repeat or build their own is important12:41
kanzurei also appreciate designs that can be easily degraded to lower reliability or something12:41
CaptHindsightsome people might want it to be made from balsa wood and have to be aligned daily12:41
kanzurei'm too lazy for that12:42
CaptHindsightok, that's what I need to know12:42
CaptHindsightthe Epson use a stamped sheet metal frame and a drill rod as a linear bearing12:43
CaptHindsightthe carriage is belt driven by a stepper12:43
CaptHindsightso it's $200 in parts12:44
kanzure$300 vs $500 is irrelevant to me; i'm more concerned about stuff like $500 vs $50k12:44
CaptHindsightah ok12:44
CaptHindsightok we are talking about a $2K printer that someone willing to use wood and found items could make for possibly under $50012:46
kanzurewhat was your argument for a gas enclosure? instead of the ABI "columns" approach?12:47
CaptHindsight8 separate fluids per head is what you can get cheaply12:47
CaptHindsight2 heads on one printer gets you 16 fluids12:47
CaptHindsightkanzure: what do you like and not like about either enclosure?12:48
kanzureseems like lots of tasks are complicated by the gas enclosure, like retrieving your samples at the end12:49
CaptHindsightisn't the inert gas required for the reagents?12:50
kanzureyes, but keeping a giant cube pumped with argon is more difficult than the ABI system12:50
kanzuresample retrieval.. what do you do, pump the cube down, use some hand-gloves to seal the glass slides(?) and then what.. hm.12:51
CaptHindsightthe printheads also need to be in the argon12:52
CaptHindsightsince they rely on external and internal pressures to operate12:52
CaptHindsightthe differences are in the few inches of water of pressure differential12:53
kanzurei think it's easy to get them inside the argon if you already have the enclosure, of course. the enclosure surrounds that part of the equipment.12:53
CaptHindsightlets see12:54
kanzurealthough if you have to access it often..... hm.12:54
CaptHindsightwhat if we keep the slides in their own enclosure12:54
kanzureyou should consider the rest of the process, if you know what i mean? like what you do after you use the machine, how do you get the dna into an organism? or how do you get it into a thermocycler? it has to be compatible in a way that does not damage the sample you have constructed.12:54
CaptHindsightyeah what I'm thinking about now12:55
kanzurealso, you get bonus points for doing things in extremely large scale (like 1 million sequences in parallel, etc)12:55
CaptHindsighthow many different fluids and how many samples at a time12:56
CaptHindsightprintheads have fixed numbers of isolated fluid channels and nozzles12:57
kanzurelook at the ABI machine, it's much more clear12:57
kanzurehttp://diyhpl.us/~bryan/papers2/DNA/abi391/12:57
CaptHindsightwalk me though the steps12:59
kanzurethose steps are listed in one of those documents, plus i am doing like 10000 things right now (trying the type-on-two-keyboards-at-once trick; it still feels unnatural)13:01
CaptHindsightno rush13:01
kanzurethe steps really are listed though13:03
kanzureand the exact reagents and inputs13:03
kanzureand also the chemical reaction sequence13:03
sheenais anyone here interested/involved in temperature monitor stuff? swallowable or implantable?13:04
CaptHindsightan inkjet dna synthesizer that dispenses 6-24 fluids can be built for a few $k ea using automation parts vs threaded rods and glue guns13:04
delinquentmekanzure, nmz787 fenn did I already ask you guys if you know of anyone around SF who has a high volumne centrifuge?13:05
delinquentmeI need to spin down ~1 gal of piggy blood13:05
kanzuredelinquentme: ask juul13:06
kanzurejuul: ping13:06
kanzureCaptHindsight: i still don't understand why you put threaded rods in the same category as glue guns :-)13:07
kanzureCaptHindsight: look at the pdfs in http://diyhpl.us/~bryan/papers2/DNA/abi391/ they are enlightening13:07
delinquentmecentrifuges could be made way safer if they were auto balancing huh13:07
delinquentmealso quite a bit lighter.13:07
CaptHindsightkanzure: because that is how you make hobby toys vs machines for work13:09
