I am new here. I am a maker and modeller, who has been teaching himself a variety of skills 23:23 < genehacker2> oh ok 23:23 < KrisC> in order to create a computer program very much like skdb 23:23 < genehacker2> well that's one of our goals 23:23 < KrisC> my project is a bit more expansive than simply a program, but I believe that you have a much broader agenda 23:24 < KrisC> Explicity, my goals are Space Migration, Intelligence Increase, and Life Extension (SMIILE) 23:24 < genehacker2> be careful you might get version 2.0 madness if you cover everything 23:25 < KrisC> I have recently started a google wave group of some of my acquatances, to whom I am describing this 23:26 < KrisC> I believe I know what I have to do in order to get more people to do what I want. Im going to go collaorative open source, but am checking my ideas with a broader range of my associates 23:26 < genehacker2> yup 23:26 < genehacker2> you're going to need lot's of help 23:27 < KrisC> then I saw the youtube videos, and I said "These people know exactly what I mean" especially considering I have the same gallery of images bookmarked for the very similar project 23:27 < KrisC> Yes, but if I come here and use part of your work, then I have lots of help 23:27 < genehacker2> the Hplus summit presentation?

23:34 < KrisC> there are legitmate and clandestine uses for the function 23:34 < KrisC> In order to ensure quality of manufacturing 23:35 < KrisC> so someone doesnt spit in your food 23:35 < genehacker2> quality is not always assured by visually watching the process 23:35 < KrisC> true, but it will cut down on causal exploitation 23:35 < KrisC> casual 23:35 < genehacker2> for things like steel you need to do tests on the steel 23:36 < genehacker2> strength testing needs to be done 23:36 < KrisC> true, and of course there is a risk when ordering things off the internet, but we have mechanisms to deal with it 23:36 < KrisC> if you have a webcam you can run a demo 23:36 < KrisC> you can set it as a conditon of trade 23:36 < genehacker2> for stuff like rockets you need to pressure test the fuel tanks 23:37 < genehacker2> sometimes this is a destructive process 23:37 < KrisC> now who is thinking large scale 23:37 < KrisC> for criitical components I would not use an ad hoc network 23:38 < KrisC> let me explain how my program works 23:38 < KrisC> (it doesnt work, i dont have a working model - for me this is 4 or 5 years away by myself) 23:39 < KrisC> it is like a search form 23:39 < KrisC> the user is prompted "I want a..." 23:39 < genehacker2> read up on human rating things, it'll help with the space migration 23:40 < KrisC> life extension will help with space migration too 23:41 < genehacker2> yes indeed 23:42 < KrisC> I have aerospace engineer friends, I will involve them when the time comes, but I want to have a greater portfolio before then 23:43 < genehacker2> are you a software engineer? 23:43 < KrisC> no, IT manager, though I went to school for materials engineering (platics, and anthropology 23:43 < genehacker2> oh materials engineering 23:43 < genehacker2> just had some classes over that 23:44 < KrisC> i spent several years drawing weather maps, which helped build my modelling skills 23:44 < KrisC> which are merely adequate 23:45 < KrisC> also been a cook, and a game designer 23:47 < KrisC> what are you studying gene?
