00:12 < genehacker> you have a taxonomy of manufacturing processes yet?

00:32 < genehacker> electronics fabrication on the moon
02:11 -!- any43175264 is now known as katsmeow

12:43 < fenn> Our opponent is an alien starship packed with atomic bombs,” I said. “We have a protractor.”
14:40 < kanzure-> fenn: are you coming to the meeting today
14:41 < kanzure-> genehacker: Nils Gilman was not from the government. Nils and I talked on the phone.
14:42 < kanzure-> genehacker: Yes, we have a taxonomy of manufacturing processes- see the Wikipedia page. It kind of sucks though.
15:07 < kanzure-> fenn: oops. no meeting this morning.
15:08 < kanzure-> btw, I'm only here until noonish because I have to be home from 1 to 5 pm.
17:13 < xp_prg> kanzure did you see this:  https://noisebridge.net/wiki/Hello_World_in_Synthetic_Biology#Hello_World_DNA_Cell_Based ?
17:26 < genehacker> hey where's the fablab's inventory I want to see something
17:34 < genehacker> oh, spaceshuttle's near hubble
18:11 < genehacker> so does the fablab have a DLP projector?
18:16 < fenn_> no
18:16 -!- fenn_ is now known as fenn
18:16 < genehacker> damn
18:51 < faceface> did ya see this? http://rosettadesigngroup.com/blog/337/design-engineering-o2-transport-protein/
18:51 < faceface> Design and engineering of an O2 transport protein
21:24 < genehacker> wait a second
21:24 < genehacker> craig venter still hasn't made mycoplasma laboratorium
21:24  * kanzure looks behind him at the hostname tag.
21:24 < kanzure> :'(
21:25 < genehacker> what?
21:29 < kanzure> I have austin.res.rr.com in it :(
21:30 < genehacker> so?
21:31 < genehacker> you know if we build a DNA synth with a projector we might be able to make mycoplasma laboratorium before he does
21:38 < nsh> what do you mean by projector genehacker ?
21:40 < genehacker> a DLP one
21:41 < genehacker> it's possible to do maskless array photolithograpy using a DLP projector hooked up to a microscope
21:42 < genehacker> maskless array photolithography is how you synthesize DNA microarrays
21:42 < kanzure> so I have a tablet PC now.
21:43 < genehacker> it's possible to extract the synthesized DNA strands from a microarray and compile them into longer strands
21:44 < genehacker> the cool thing about this method that uses a projector is you get about the same feature size that professional built DNA synth's get
21:45 < genehacker> 16 um vs 20 um(what we could achieve)

21:57 < genehacker> now isn't that handy
22:33 < kanzure> new iron man intro? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VFzJHaGBUTs
22:34 < kanzure> genehacker: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cUDYDUKD8fA&feature=PlayList&p=EB20B028308D1190&index=5&playnext=2&playnext_from=PL
22:34 < kanzure> er
22:34 < kanzure> I meant http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VFzJHaGBUTs
22:35 < genehacker> I'll have to watch that
22:35 < genehacker> later
22:35 < genehacker> I'm in the library
22:35 < genehacker> studying
22:36 < genehacker> perusing the possibility of writing a kinematic modeller for my calculator
22:45 < kanzure> what functions would such a modeller have to have
22:46 < genehacker> springs, basic kinematic stuff, joints
22:46 < genehacker> probably just one body
