EnLilaSkoxrr: Google something like "mmol/l to mg/l"00:55
xrrEnLilaSko, yeah, thanks. I think I understand the conversion via molar mass. But I'm not sure what mass has been used to calculate the mg/l. Just the atom, or some larger molecule?01:38
xrrhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reference_ranges_for_blood_tests apparently uses just atomic masses. 140 mg / 3.5 mmol = 40 g/mol ~= 39 for potassium atom. But 1750 mg / 3.5 mmol = 500 g/mol is just weird. Well anyways, I don't really care what mass is used, so I could just use 500 g/mol for conversion, but the problem is that 1850/5 = 370 g/mol, which is way different. Yeah, I don't know. Maybe the lab just changed the reference ranges. I'll try to01:38
xrrfigure this out.01:38

mginyo05:44
kanzureyes?05:44
mgini'm interested in talking with people who seriously want to achieve immortality05:45
kanzureyou already said that. if you really wanted that, you would know that serious people are capable of remembering your shit.05:48
mginwell i'm not talking about you05:49
kanzureah because...?05:49
mgini haven't even been able to get a straight answer out of you whether you're interested in such a thing, and i don't really want to keep trying05:50
kanzurehave you read any of the links i keep giving you?05:50
kanzurealso you should read all of this- http://diyhpl.us/~bryan/papers2/longevity/05:53

mgini'm mainly interested in talking to people who are serious about achieving immortality right now, so you don't have to keep sending me links05:57
kanzurejustanotheruser: ah i didn't know they had released their source code, https://github.com/strib/scigen05:57
kanzuremgin: fuck talking, start figuring it out- you're going to have to read stuff that's not in an irc channel05:58
mgini don't really appreciate that05:58
kanzureacquiring skills and knowledge is critical to not dying06:00
BetawolfI don't know what you expect to achieve in a conversation with such a person that would be different from reading a resource such as what kanzure just provided. 'Sure, I'll add you to a list for when I've figured it out'?06:02
mgini'll ask again later06:03
kanzuredo you disagree with this approach to not dying?06:03
mginare you talking to me?06:04
kanzureyes06:04
mgini don't know what you're referring to06:04
kanzure.....06:05
kanzure06:00 < kanzure> acquiring skills and knowledge is critical to not dying06:05
mginare you seriously telling me that you're "approach" to not dying is to "acquire skills and knowledge", and asking me if i think that's a good "approach"?06:06
kanzureyes; because you've ignored all of the resources i keep telling you to read.06:06
kanzureso from this data it seems that you disagree06:07
mginyour*06:08
mginI guess I can infer that you are trying to live forever, at least in your own mind06:08
mginI'm not really interested in talking to you though06:08
BetawolfI see. You're interested in _talking_ to someone who wants to achieve immortality. For an abstract debate of some kind.06:09
mginis this place infested with morons? jesus christ06:10
ebowden_lol06:10
mginI guess in a chat this big it's inevitable06:10
ebowden_Earlier he was discussing new microfluidic techniques for oglionucleotide synthesis.06:11
ebowden_*techniques in microfluidics for06:11
ebowden_He is no fool, though appears to be good at suffering them.06:12
mginwell mentally ill people can be knowledgeable too06:13
ebowden_I find him unpleasant, but how on earth do you know he's mentally ill?06:14
ebowden_And you were talking about morons.06:14
mginwhatever the problem is06:14
mgintired of people with problems06:14
ebowden_Everyone has problems.06:15
mginnot really.06:15
ebowden_Who has no problems whatever?06:16
mginthat's a pretty cynical statement06:16
ebowden_Not really...06:17
ebowden_http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/problem06:17
mginlook people have goals, they have work, etc. doesn't mean everyone has some kind of personal problem06:17
ebowden_I said problems. You are adding things to what I said.06:18
mginwhat do you guys think of the difference between verbal and technical intelligence?06:32
mginit's something that i seem to keep noticing over the years, but i don't know of any strong literature on it06:32
FourFiremgin, still around?06:59
FourFiremgin, read this paragraph, for future reference please: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indefinite_lifespan#Not_immortality07:01
FourFireOh, had mgin but pinged me I could have answered some of his questions07:05
kanzureit's still not clear to me whether mgin is looking to acquire skills necessary for cellular and molecular biology projects, or if he's more interested in debate.07:20
ebowden_It does not appear that he is attempting to acquire those skills.07:22

kanzurehm well i can't seem to find any evidence of a reversible immobilization method08:32
CaptHindsightkanzure: lets just say that we have the magic drop mover and mixer, what's next?08:32
CaptHindsightthere are photocleavable linkers to silanes08:33
kanzurenext is a magic drop washer that doesn't obliterate the dna or oligonucleotides08:33
kanzureand also, it would be ideal to avoid gel extraction techniques (e.g. "run it through gel electrophoresis, then slice the gel cake, then elute, then centrifuge for a while, then try to manually recover the dna") because they take way too many steps (having a machine do a million gel extractions is ugh)08:35
CaptHindsightoligos bonded to a silane that can be moved and washed08:36
kanzurei think they need to be released for the assembly steps. and once they are released, i don't think any more wash steps are possible.08:36
kanzure.wik gel extraction08:37
yoleaux"In molecular biology, gel extraction or gel isolation is a technique used to isolate a desired fragment of intact DNA from an agarose gel following agarose gel electrophoresis. After extraction, fragments of interest can be mixed, precipitated, and enzymatically ligated together in several simple steps." — https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gel_extraction08:37
CaptHindsightcan't they be assembled going in the opposite direction from the base bonded to the silane?08:37
kanzurethere are two dna inputs to each assembly operation (well at least 2 dna inputs). if they are both bonded to different objects, then they will never interact.08:39
kanzurewhat is my magic million-drop drop mover?08:40

ahabOMC - ordered mesoporous carbon09:21
kanzureahab: use nicehash.com09:21
ahabkanzure, I'll check it out09:22
kanzureahab: we're building an inkjet dna synthesizer (phosphoramidite chemistry)09:22
kanzurea material with 50 nm pores would be very useful, especially if they have bottoms09:22
ahabkanzure, I can create an ordered hexagonal matrix of either amorphous/crystalline carbon and almost any pore size...well I used to09:23

delinquentmeahab, why didnt you get here sooner09:25
ahabdeliquentme...well, the introvert part...but I'm here now09:26
ahabkanzure, can you see academic pulications?09:26
ahabJACS, Advanced functional materials?09:26
kanzurehaven't checked those, but yea i have access to some stuff09:31
ahabcreating ordered mesoporous carbon is quite easy, use block copolymers for self assembly and depending on the ratios and or added materials, you can dictate pore size09:33

CaptHindsight+ to09:56
kanzureonce you cleave, how do you bond it back?09:56
CaptHindsightyou won't bond it back to the silane, just to an oligo that is still anchored09:57

kanzure"The goal of this research was to find a practical means by which an array of 100 needle-shaped electrodes could be implanted into the cerebral cortex with minimal brain tissue trauma. It was found that insertion of these structures into cortical tissues could only be performed using high insertion speeds. A pneumatically actuated impact insertion system has been developed that is capable of inserting an electrode array into feline brain ...15:22
kanzure... tissue at speeds from about 1 to 11 m/sec. We found that a minimum array insertion speed of 8.3 m/sec was necessary for a complete, safe insertion of all 100 electrodes in the array to a depth of 1.5 mm into feline cortex."15:22

mginalright, variation, who here is trying to live forever, and what's your strategy?17:51
kanzure1) acquire all knowledge 2) build things http://diyhpl.us/wiki/declaration (there has been no particular criticism with this approach, so in general you can safely assume most people in here agree with this method)17:53
mgini want to hear others' approach17:54
kanzurewell there's the kurzweil approach ("invest in some stocks, sit back and wait 30 years")17:56
kanzurewhat's your alternative?17:57
mginwell the obvious answer is SENS17:58
kanzureyou mean "wait for the sens foundation to do more stuff" or do you mean "i have some plans for working on the sens goals"?18:02
mginwell right, the content of the strategy would be to act in such a way as to maximize one's contribution to that effort18:04

mginitem 2?19:50
justanotheruserhttp://diyhpl.us/wiki/projects/proposals/19:50
mginyou're trying to build a cheap atomic microscope?19:51
justanotheruserI plan to try to19:51
justanotheruserI'm still a few steps behind19:51
mginwhy?19:51
juri_I'm studying like crazy, and writing/building free software/hardware.19:51
kanzurethere's not much to it, you're going to be disappointed, justanotheruser19:51
juri_refurbing an SEM.19:51
kanzureit's like a piezo and some tungsten tips or something19:51
kanzure.. and lots of granite.19:51
justanotheruserkanzure: I've looked into it, I remember you telling me that I shouldn't be looking into piezo tubes and piezo buzzers would suffice. Why is that? Do piezo buzzers have the granularity needed?19:52
kanzuretubes.. hm.19:52
justanotheruserI looked into purchasing piezo tubes, but they require a bulk order worth thousands of dollars from the places I checked19:52
kanzureiirc most piezoelectric crystals have the same response properties.19:53
mginjustanotheruser: why?19:55
justanotherusermgin: because atomic manipulation19:55
mgincan you please explain19:56
mginbecause you sound like you're delusional19:56
justanotheruserkanzure: these are 10cm/V https://www.americanpiezo.com/standard-products/buzzers.html19:57
justanotheruserthe piezotubes are more like 10nm/V19:57
justanotheruserat least the PZT-5A BM500 PZT-5H BM527 PZT-4 piezotubes are19:57
justanotheruserDoesn't say anything about their consistency at that level, but I'm sure they're not meant to adjust on the scale of microvolts19:58
justanotherusermgin: What is there to explain?19:58
justanotherusers/adjust/expand/19:59
kanzurejustanotheruser: hmm well maybe we should do a group buy at some point19:59
kanzureor i'll just buy it and we can split it up (i'm sure nmz787 would like some)19:59
kanzureprobably can find on alibaba19:59
justanotheruseryes, in 2013 I didn't try alibaba20:00
justanotheruserbut sensortech.ca requires $1k20:00
justanotheruserand I didn't want to buy 5 piezotubes when I needed one20:00
mginyou could answer my question20:00
mginwhy are you trying to build a cheap atomic microscope20:00
justanotheruser22:55 < justanotheruser> mgin: because atomic manipulation20:00
mginthat doesn't mean anything20:01
kanzurehaha20:01
kanzureatoms. movement.20:01
mginright...20:01
justanotheruser!g AFM20:01
mgin"zebras. chairs"20:01
justanotherusermgin: google what an STM is20:01
kanzure.wik scanning tunneling microscope20:02
yoleaux"A scanning tunneling microscope (STM) is an instrument for imaging surfaces at the atomic level. Its development in 1981 earned its inventors, Gerd Binnig and Heinrich Rohrer (at IBM Zürich), the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1986. For an STM, good resolution is considered to be 0.1 nm lateral resolution and 0.01 nm depth resolution." — https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scanning_tunneling_microscope20:02
kanzure.wik atomic force microscope20:02
yoleaux"Atomic force microscopy (AFM) or scanning force microscopy (SFM) is a very high-resolution type of scanning probe microscopy (SPM), with demonstrated resolution on the order of fractions of a nanometer, more than 1000 times better than the optical diffraction limit." — https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomic_force_microscope20:02
mgini know what a microscope is. i'm asking why you are trying to build a cheap one20:02
justanotheruserwhat is hard to understand about this20:02
mginwhy you would want to build a cheap atomic microscope20:03
justanotheruseratomic manipulation has many leads for transhumanism20:03
mginhence why i asked several times20:03
mginwhat does a microscope have to do with manipulation?20:03
kanzureit physically touches things20:03
mginso?20:03
mginhave you guys even thought this through before?20:03
justanotheruseryes, this is where the disconnect is, it isn't an optical microscope, like I said, google what an STM is, some can be designed to manipulate atoms20:03
kanzurehumans do not normally have the ability to manipulate individual atoms20:03
mginthe inability to answer the most rudimentary questions about why you are doing something is a gigantic red flag20:04
mginit's like you have no clue20:04
kanzureor the other theory is something like "you are incapable of reading"20:04
kanzuregiven that we have had multiple problems with you by now related to reading this channel, i'm inclined to believe this is the same20:05
mgini already know you have no clue kanzure, i'm not talking to you20:05
mginhint: i'm never talking to you20:05
kanzurenarf20:05
justanotherusermgin: so which of these things are you confused about? The fact that atomic manipulation is a lead for transhumanism? The fact that an STM can be used to manipulate atoms? The fact that I want to build one?20:06
mginthose are the three questions on the table, yes20:06
justanotheruserI don't see what isn't clear20:06
mginyou just named them20:06
justanotheruserThe questions are each answered by the prior question. I want to build one because it can manipulate atoms. I want to manipulate atoms because the ability to do so is a lead for transhumanism. I admit, my sentence doesn't have an answer for why I want transhumanism though.20:07
kanzurejustanotheruser: well not dying is generally useful, so there's that20:07

mginhow and how?20:08
justanotheruserhow does an stm manipulate atoms? I think wikipedia answers that. How do I build one? I like e-bastelns build20:08
kanzuremgin: often projects are useful on their own without any additional purpose in advance; working on hard projects is useful because those skills often translate to very similar problems. so even if his atomic microscope is never used for molecular nanotechnology tooltip shit, it might still be useful for improving his understanding of signal analysis.20:09
mginwell it's just a token question at this point. obviously whatever mental illness kanzure has you share20:09
kanzuremgin: yes, i've basically infected everyone in here20:09
