chris_99what are they lesswrong than09:09
xentracthan they used to be, ieally09:10
xentracideally09:10
xentracthere's a large intersection between H+ interested people and lesswrong acolytes09:10
nmz787_iseemed like conversation I'd hear in a sports bar or something, as I recall... or no more interesting than that, at least09:15
chris_99nmz787_i, can you think of anything better than using something like modular hose, to enable me to easily move about the diffraction grating by hand?09:17
c0rw1n-the irc is not equal to the site, it's its own little subcommunity. SRN and general quality varies a lot09:17
c0rw1n-*SNR09:17
nmz787_ichris_99: for calibration (one time) or normal operation??09:21
nmz787_ii mean, are you just going to use the hose like a stick, to nudge the grating as it is sitting on a table or bench or something?09:21
chris_99for normal operation sorry09:30
nmz787_ihrmm09:30
nmz787_inot sure what you're thinking09:31
chris_99sec let me get a picture09:31
nmz787_imaybe post it to https://sketch.io/sketchpad/ or something09:31
nmz787_i(i just searched sketch online share)09:31
chris_99http://toolguyd.com/sparkfun-third-hand-kit/ this kind of thing, and just use one hose to hold the grating09:31
chris_99and the other the slit09:32
nmz787_iah09:34
nmz787_ii was thinking garden hose09:34
nmz787_ior medical tubing09:34
nmz787_ithose are the snake arm things09:34
nmz787_ihmm, something better09:35
nmz787_iyeah I guesss what fenn said, something like a kinematic stage/mount09:35
chris_99aren't they expensive though?09:35
nmz787_iyeah, wonder if there is a 3d print model tho09:35
chris_99oh yeah09:35
chris_99that's a point09:35
chris_99i've got a friend with a 3d printer too09:36

nmz787_iseems like there is something we aren't seeing09:38
chris_99that's interest09:39
chris_99*interesting09:39
chris_99using that metal stuff is a good plan09:40
nmz787_ias long as the plastic doesn't sag appreciably over the lifetime of your calibration/measurement09:40
chris_99mmm09:41
nmz787_ii centrifuged some plastic a few days ago, apparently too fast, as it came out slightly melted on the top where there was a piece of metal09:41

kanzure"Simple, scalable proteomic imaging for high-dimensional profiling of intact systems" http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S009286741501505610:54
kanzure"This method, termed SWITCH, uniformly secures tissue architecture, native biomolecules, and antigenicity across an entire system by synchronizing the tissue preservation reaction. The heat- and chemical-resistant nature of the resulting framework permits multiple rounds (>20) of relabeling. We have performed 22 rounds of labeling of a single tissue with precise co-registration of multiple datasets. Furthermore, SWITCH synchronizes ...10:54
kanzure... labeling reactions to improve probe penetration depth and uniformity of staining. With SWITCH, we performed combinatorial protein expression profiling of the human cortex and also interrogated the geometric structure of the fiber pathways in mouse brains. Such integrated high-dimensional information may accelerate our understanding of biological systems at multiple levels."10:54

kanzure"Hippocampal calbindin-1 immunoreactivity correlate of recognition memory performance in aged mice." http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2250390210:56
kanzure"Our results suggest that hippocampal Calb1 expression affects memory performance in aged mice probably via its role in maintaining neuronal calcium homeostasis. Alternatively, our finding of lower Calb1 immunoreactivity with poorer memory performance in aged mice might be attributed to saturation of Calb1 protein by higher levels of intracellular calcium, due to aging-related dysregulation of neuronal calcium fluxes."10:56
kanzure"Transcription factor Sp4 regulates expression of nervous wreck 2 to control NMDAR1 levels and dendrite patterning." https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2504501510:57
kanzure"Mice mutant for the transcription factor Sp4 have reduced levels of NMDAR subunit 1 (NR1) protein, but not mRNA, and exhibit behavioral and memory deficits (Zhou et al., [2010] Human Molecular Genetics 19: 3797-3805). In developing cerebellar granule neurons (CGNs), Sp4 controls dendrite patterning (Ramos et al., [2007] Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 104: 9882-9887). Sp4 target genes that regulate dendrite pruning or NR1 levels are not known. ...10:57
kanzure... Here we report that Sp4 activates transcription of Nervous Wreck 2 (Nwk2; also known as Fchsd1) and, further, that Nwk2, an F-BAR domain-containing protein, mediates Sp4-dependent regulation of dendrite patterning and cell surface expression of NR1. Knockdown of Nwk2 in CGNs increased primary dendrite number, phenocopying Sp4 knockdown, and exogenous expression of Nwk2 in Sp4-depleted neurons rescued dendrite number. We observed that ...10:57
kanzure... acute Sp4 depletion reduced levels of surface, but not total, NR1, and this was rescued by Nwk2 expression. Furthermore, expression of Nr1 suppressed the increase in dendrite number in Sp4- or Nwk2- depleted neurons."10:57

FourFirehe wrote an AI-Foom thingwhich got a bunch of metafic11:07
xentracI don't fully understand why ultrasound transducers usually have such enormous Q factors.  I mean, is it just the large mismatch in acoustic impedance between air and the piezo?11:07
