| ybit | i´m going to bed | 00:19 |

| kanzure | you ask me to explain and leave a few seconds later? | 00:20 |

| * fenn notes that the american economy runs on bullshit | 10:28 | |
| ybit | regarding bullshit: my friend gave a presentation at a well-known research university in cambridge, ma, and he told before the presentation that he had spent most all of his money on the latest clothes and the importance of presentation and bullshit, especially in the academic world | 11:04 |
| ybit | i can see how that would apply in business, but in the scientific community?! | 11:04 |
| ybit | i guess it happens though | 11:08 |
| jm | who told him to do so? | 12:18 |
| jm | the scientific community? we don't let you in because you don't look like us? ;) | 12:18 |
| ybit | heh | 12:30 |
| fenn | i've seen many distinguished professors in jeans and flannel (or whatever atrocious getup they can think of) | 12:39 |
| fenn | its more like good manners than an absolute requirement | 12:39 |
| fenn | but i dont think most scientists really care | 12:40 |
| ybit | i never think about | 13:13 |
| ybit | nor do i care | 13:13 |
| ybit | for vacation, i want to visit CERN and lab AAB of the SG building at EPFL (blue brain!), just need to find a few beaches and spas along the way to satisfy everyone else :) | 13:17 |
| kanzure | ybit: Good luck. | 13:48 |
| kanzure | Take many photos. | 13:49 |
| kanzure | btw, does it make me a geek if I spotted a freckle on Princess Leia's back and nobody else on the internet has mentioned it? | 13:49 |
| ybit | haha, i´ve noticed it as well :) | 13:49 |
| ybit | does it make me a geek to play back the star wars films to spot every easter egg? :) | 13:50 |
| ybit | wouldn´t do it now of course since there´s so much for me to catching up to do in so many fields of science | 13:51 |
| ybit | grr, grammar, [- first instance of ´to´] | 13:53 |
| ybit | i think what makes you a geek is that http://heybryan.org/shots/inspiration/Superkuh_Jan22_06_desk_112956055_53fe3cf020.jpg is filed under inspiration :) | 13:58 |
| kanzure | heh | 14:21 |
| kanzure | yes, I do repetitively watch Star Wars | 14:22 |
| * kanzure still needs a new relayhost | 14:22 | |
| jm | Superkuh? | 14:50 |
| jm | that's german. anyone german here or what is it? | 14:54 |
| ybit | jm: superkuh is someone´s irc username | 16:24 |
| ybit | and he does weird things on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/user/Superkuh2 | 16:25 |
| ybit | weird in a good way of course | 16:26 |
| ybit | ...i think :P | 16:26 |
| kanzure | http://superkuh.ath.cx/ | 16:29 |
| kanzure | Hm. It's down. | 16:29 |
| kanzure | He's stealing wireless from his neighbor, so. | 16:30 |
| fenn | translates as 'super cow' | 17:29 |
| kanzure | there's some german show that he claims it's not related to | 17:41 |
| kanzure | grr | 18:12 |
| kanzure | I should have listened to Jef | 18:12 |
| kanzure | earlier this month, on the 5th, he mentioned that the problem I was going to hit was "Correlating data to the extent that you can extract semantics." | 18:12 |
| kanzure | sure enough he was right | 18:12 |
| kanzure | ffs, why haven't I written the wiki interface to git repos yet | 18:50 |
| kanzure | ok, I'm successfully completely confused | 19:14 |
| kanzure | somebody remind me why I had two concurrent strategies and where the first, the local augmentation bullshit, came from ? | 19:17 |
| kanzure | it was something about needing to break past some of the information input/output constraints | 19:17 |
| ybit | who´s jeff? | 19:29 |
| ybit | and can´t you just ask him for a log :P | 19:29 |
| ybit | wow, i really need to take it easy with the emoticons | 19:32 |
| kanzure | Jef is a good friend of mine from lists.extropy.org | 19:34 |
| kanzure | I did have a log, that's why I said earlier this month | 19:34 |
| fenn | jef is a logic nazi | 19:57 |
| fenn | not that that's necessarily a bad thing.. | 19:57 |
| kanzure | he's fun to read | 20:03 |
| kanzure | not to mention somewhat useful anyway | 20:03 |
| kanzure | "The Google provides all. I am merely its proxy." | 20:23 |
| fenn | proxying google eh? dont you know that's against their TOS? sinner! | 20:24 |
| kanzure | how does one get over one's self? heh' | 20:57 |
| kanzure | before I forget | 21:58 |
