kanzure"Yes. Hype. I work at a Tier-I research university, and although there are plenty of good things going on here, a significant fraction of the labs prefer to stretch the truth. I've seen NASA do it too. Their product is actually what they can put in Powerpoint, not what is reality. Sad truth is, it works. There are enough people out there to buy it to make it a successful short term strategy. If your reading it in the popular press, I would give it a 50/50 for being worth a damn."08:16

kanzurea presentation by andrew hessel on "pink army stuff" http://adl.serveftp.org/sweden%20SALSS%20%20august%2021%202009.mov11:38
wonklabScientists are saying they've identified magnetic monopoles.11:38
wonklabWe'll all have to learn different Maxwell's equations.11:39
wonklabhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gauss'_law_for_magnetism#Modification_if_magnetic_monopoles_exist11:39
wonklabdel*B = 0 is for old folks.11:39

kanzuredoes anyone know where I can find "Folding a fish, making a mushroom: the role of diagrams in executing assembly procedures." ?12:00
wonklabPublisher: Psychonomic Society, Austin, TX12:02
wonklabI can't seem to get to it online.12:03
kanzureok got it12:07

CIA-32skdb: fenn * r afc8252 /doc/todo: merge old list into working copy, delete obsolete info12:08
fennkanzure: something screwed up with that last paper12:09
fennwonklab: "magnetic monopole" stuff is bullshit, sorry12:11
fennit's like how they went 7 times the speed of light, as long as you consider "group velocity"12:11
fennit's just semantics12:11
fennapplied to sensationalist journalism12:11
wonklabSo you think magnetic monopoles don't emerge in that situation?12:21
wonklabThe researchers seem to believe they've split the magnetic dipole.12:24
wonklabAnd people have been trying to do this for forever.12:24
wonklabThe monopole corrections to Maxwell's equations are pretty old, too.12:25
fennno i think they're just finessing the definition of 'monopole'12:31
fennthere's always pairs of these monopoles in the experiment12:31
wonklabYeah, they've just been pulled apart.12:31
-!- ybit_ [n=ybit@c-76-29-246-254.hsd1.al.comcast.net] has quit [Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer)]12:32
wonklabBut aparently that's pretty similar to the style of monopole that Dirac proposed back in the day.12:32
-!- ybit [n=ybit@c-76-29-246-254.hsd1.al.comcast.net] has joined #hplusroadmap12:35
wonklabI guess the question is whether the magnetic monopoles are far enough apart that it looks like you have magnetic flux lines emanating from a point.12:36
drazakblah12:49
drazakthe PI is gone and he wanted me to run experiments by him12:50
drazakI think he has radar for leaving at the most annoying times12:50
drazak"hm, I asked someone to ask me about something when they figure it out, I think I'm just gonna leave and then they can fuck it up by the time I get back, yeah!"12:50
fennemail ftw13:11
drazakhe doesn't answer his email when he's not here13:15

kanzurecan anyone get "State space representation of manufacturing operation plans in the presence of flexible routing capability" ?14:25
kanzureall these assembly planners suck14:46
xp_prgkanzure that is common place using mrp14:59
kanzurewhat?15:00
kanzurespeak english15:00
xp_prgmanufacturing resource planning *sigh*15:00
kanzuresorry the sentence still doesn't make sense15:01
xp_prgwww.graysonconsulting.biz15:01
xp_prglisten to my adempiere talks15:01
xp_prgthey talk all about it15:01
xp_prgor wikipidea it15:01
kanzurewikipedia the sentence?15:02
kanzurewhy would I do that15:02
xp_prgso you can know what I am talking about?15:02
xp_prgI specialize in mrp algorithms15:02
kanzureor you can fix your damn fucking sentence15:02
xp_prgyou need this algorithms for what your doing or the specification/planning will be too tightly coupled15:03
kanzureyou're a moron15:03
kanzureshut the fuck up15:03
kanzuredon't talk to me unless you're willing to use english15:03
kanzure"kanzure that is common place using mrp" is not a good sentence at all15:03
kanzureand ignoring my requests for you to fix it isn't a good way to get on my good side15:03
xp_prgin short you need to specify you parts as follows:15:04
kanzureso you're not talking with me are you15:04
kanzureguess it's my fault for assuming 15:04
xp_prgbill of materials15:04
xp_prgsub bill of materials15:04

xp_prgresources that parts will be made on15:04
kanzurexp_prg: you're a moron15:04
kanzureskdb has a more useful format15:05
kanzurehow about you go read it instead of assuming you know it?15:05
xp_prgroutes combine the resources and the parts to create the final part15:05
kanzurecan you stop talking?15:05
xp_prgthere is no better format, that is the standard format for all manufacturing/assembly algoirthms15:06
kanzurenot mine :)15:06
kanzurenow fuck off15:06
ybitthink i f'd the electron gun on the crt monitor -_- the very thing i was after.. maybe not though16:01
ybitthis physics guy @ work claims a photolith device can be made for a few hundred, i told him to write down the parts list and get back with me17:02
ybithttp://www.patentstorm.us/patents/5663076/description.html :: US Patent 5663076 - Automating photolithography in the fabrication of integrated circuits17:05
kanzureybit: yes it doesn't cost a lot. the trick though is figuring out the opitcs, like the condenser lense.18:18
kanzureew a patent is the first search result (#6700644)18:26
kanzurehomogenizer, condenser stop, condenser lens18:39
kanzuresometimes a projection lens18:39
kanzuremaybe you can do photolithography with a water drop lens. those usually get 1.5 to 2x projection.18:49
kanzuredoes anyone know how to build a condenser?18:54
kanzuresome really old lanterns: http://www.artgallery.sa.gov.au/noye/Lantern/Lighting.htm18:58

wrldpc2good film ... nitrocellulose film features prominently20:34
wrldpc2apparently back in the day if you had film canisters of this stuff you couldn't bring them on to public transportation because of their low-grade explosive potential 20:35
wrldpc2not quite explosive i suppose ... just highly flammable20:36
wrldpc2How this relates is the lanterns in that link you posted reminded me of the projectors from the film.20:38

ybitmight be able to automate the building of some lego structure with a delta robot?23:35
kanzurehave you installed skdb yet?23:43
ybityeah23:44
ybitthink i installed it the day the git repo was available23:44
kanzurehave you run it yet?23:44
ybitrequires pythoncc iirc23:45
kanzurethat might be a first step before suggesting projects23:45
kanzureactually certain parts don't require pythonocc at all23:45
kanzure maybe making a modification to a current package or something23:45
ybitlike yaml and python files23:45
ybitmy python isntall if f'd23:45
kanzurewell if you don't have pythonocc, it will just yell at you, but it will not crash23:45
ybithave been trying to get around to it asap, installing arch so i don't have to waith on compiling 23:46
ybitit's taken me this entire week just to fix a few broken deps on this system :-\23:47
kanzurewhy are you using gentoo anyway?23:47
fennok stupid python question time23:47
kanzureyou don't seem to have the time to hunt down dependencies23:47
ybiti like the idea of USE flags23:47
fenni have class A: def foo(bar): return bar*123.45623:47
ybitcustom compiling eveverything... which you can do in arch if you so choose23:48
kanzurefenn: I think the first parameter is always "self"23:48
fennclass B(A): stuff = foo(789)23:48
kanzureunless you do something like @static ? (don't hold me to this)23:48
fennit's not a method, just for building class specific data23:48
fennand i "can't call @staticmethod object"23:48
ybitright, i don't have time for it which is why i'm turning to a binary distro23:48
fennoh alsoin class A i have stuff = foo(123)23:49
kanzuretry foo(self, bar) and see how that goes?23:49
fennthere is no self23:49
fenni need this data for __init__23:49
kanzureit's a nonstatic class method23:49
ybitsupposedly dependency resolution is built into gentoo, but so far the portage and paludis have just gotten in my way23:49
kanzureisn't there a self for all nonstatic class methods?23:49
fennif it's a class method i can't call it in class A23:49
kanzurehm23:50
fenni think i should just use a regular function, nevermind23:50
fenni'm just annoyed23:50
