03:17 < ^ditto> [freenode] <TMA> sadly, soliciting an opinion without providing an opinion sample is frequently met with hostility, because it requires the interlocutor to think more
03:51 < L29Ah[XMPP]> it looks more like negative campaigning
03:52 < L29Ah[XMPP]> he didn't solicit opinions, he provided one and then left, and this nickname was never in this channel before
03:53 < fenn> i've seen him around
03:56 < L29Ah[XMPP]> ah right, over a year ago perhaps
03:58 < fenn> apparently he is an "angel investor" now
04:03 < L29Ah[XMPP]> 99% match in okcupid ♥
04:07 < fenn> send a wink ;)
05:32 < jrayhawk> this channel is publicly logged; no need to stick around

06:33 < fenn> drethelin: kent seems very knowledgeable about biochemistry but is terrible at running a business and seems to have gone off the deep end a little with the demonpore64 "game console" idea
06:34 < fenn> nmz787 has done some consulting for him and can probably say more
06:34 < fenn> anyway i am asleep, no response required
07:21 -!- Codaraxis__ [~Codaraxis@89.45.7.134] has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
07:28 < kanzure> drethelin: he does some interesting things from time to time but he's not everyone's cup of tea. nmz787 works for him now, i think.
07:28 < kanzure> oh, fenn has said the same thing

08:57 < redlegion> oh good, freenode g:lined irccloud
08:57 < redlegion> makes sense, since they're rolling out their own bouncer
08:58 < redlegion> though I can't really see what ^ditto is doing on the other side anymore, at least not as easily
10:07 < ^ditto> [freenode] <redlegion> dead
11:20 < andytoshi> alex wellerstein has a book out about the history of nuclear weapons. right now you can get a signed copy for the cost of shipping https://alexwellerstein.com/writing/books/restricted-data/
11:21 < andytoshi> i mean, the book is $35, but to get a signed copy you have to pay extra to ship it from the random bookstore near his house
11:47 < kanzure> "Regulation of the one carbon folate cycle as a shared metabolic signature of longevity" https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-021-23856-9

13:56 < drethelin> he's been hitting me up for funding on twitter and is coming off as definitely off the deep end unfortunately
14:59 < nmz787> fenn: (and possibly others)... I need 2 new garage doors, 10ft wide, for the new section of my workshop... but I wonder if you know of some [advanced] door technology that will properly seal against dust/insects/mice
15:06 < nmz787> drethelin: I've collaborated a bit on the demonpore stuff over the last year... less so the last 3 months or so as I've been working to move rural and that has been enough work outside of my dayjob and having a kid. As well I switched day-jobs recently to more directly nanofabby kind of things (lithography CAD library team) so have been swamped with ramp-up there.
15:08 < nmz787> but yeah, the electronics are software interface is plumbed end-to-end... they need cash inflow for high-volume manufacture (especially with the "chip shortage") and user-load (and interface) improvement
15:09 < nmz787> I want to try laser cutting some pores in thin plastic film (i.e. cigarette pack wrapping), using one of those q-switched "fast" lasers, an acquaintance around here has one
15:09 < nmz787> for testing some super cheap micropores
15:09 < nmz787> but... been dealing with macro things mostly lately in my "spare" time
15:09 < nmz787> bought a 2 wheeled tractor a few weekends ago

17:00 < L29Ah[XMPP]> oh, maybe you happen to know what power tool should i use to dig a dugout in a forest where an excavator won't be able to reach
18:06 < fenn> L29Ah[XMPP]: post hole digger?
18:09 < fenn> when i hear "2 wheeled tractor" i think of some kind of amish motorcycle
21:09 < lsneff> nmz787: still at intel?
