kanzure | does anyone know about "the human speechome project"? | 01:24 |
katsmeow-afk | Data is being gathered at an average rate of 200 gigabytes per day. | 01:26 |
katsmeow-afk | damn | 01:26 |
katsmeow-afk | they could just ask kids wth aspergers | 01:28 |
katsmeow-afk | ~1962 it took me 10 minutes to figure out they were not mispronouncing "automatic" for "atomic", and calling a wringer washer "automatic" was my intrduction to lies in advertising | 01:29 |
QuantumG | http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EHdRJqi__Z8 is awesome | 01:29 |
katsmeow-afk | transcript? | 01:31 |
QuantumG | nah, the cool part is that they've combined 4 different lectures on the same topic | 01:31 |
katsmeow-afk | thorium reserve in Lemhi Pass of Idaho/Montana was 600000 tons | 01:31 |
* nsh has question | 01:31 | |
katsmeow-afk | we all have those, nsh | 01:32 |
QuantumG | for example, "where's nsh?" I'm asking that all the time | 01:32 |
nsh | why do people think that 'for' is a good way to link the operands in phrases such as "replace X for Y", "substitute X for Y", "mispronounce X for Y" | 01:32 |
nsh | is this magically unambiguous if you happened to burst womb in north america? | 01:33 |
nsh | replace X with Y, mispronounce A as B | 01:33 |
nsh | thank you. | 01:33 |
katsmeow-afk | i think it's because of the phrase "use for" | 01:33 |
nsh | hmm | 01:34 |
nsh | my brain parses that differently | 01:34 |
nsh | ugh, now i'm thinking about reverse polish notation in sentences | 01:34 |
katsmeow-afk | i am not disagreeing with you, however, if i spoke any more correctly irl, then absolutely no one irl would understand me | 01:34 |
nsh | you need to speak with projectiles more :-) | 01:35 |
* nsh wishes he could sleep like all the normal people | 01:35 | |
katsmeow-afk | that's gotten me into enough trouble | 01:35 |
nsh | instead of trawling html comments on nsa.gov on a whim | 01:35 |
katsmeow-afk | hell, they even ignored the projectiles part , even after picking up the side effectsof the projectiles | 01:36 |
nsh | pray expand | 01:36 |
katsmeow-afk | oh, lets not | 01:37 |
nsh | ok | 01:37 |
nsh | '(pronounced "speech-ome", rhymes with "genome")' ... fuck you wikipedia | 01:37 |
katsmeow-afk | well, somone wold be sure to say it speech-o-me | 01:38 |
nsh | sounds like a weapon from H2G2 | 01:39 |
nsh | "Many older English poems, particularly those written in Middle English or written in The Renaissance, contain rhymes that were originally true or full rhymes, but as read by modern readers they are now eye rhymes because of shifts in pronunciation. An example is prove and love." --http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eye_rhyme | 01:39 |
nsh | does that mean they pronounced prove as in "pruv", or love as in louvre? | 01:40 |
nsh | either way sounds pretty gay. no wonder they wore those frilly neck travesties | 01:41 |
katsmeow-afk | here they say "de techer larned mah my speeching" | 01:41 |
* nsh read that in the voice bart uses to say "i wash mahself with a rag onna stick" | 01:41 | |
katsmeow-afk | or chief and chef ? | 01:41 |
* nsh wonders how human specheome baby will be psychologically affected | 01:42 | |
katsmeow-afk | went = we-unt | 01:43 |
katsmeow-afk | road = raod | 01:43 |
katsmeow-afk | rah-ode | 01:43 |
katsmeow-afk | cow = caw-oh or cay-ow | 01:44 |
katsmeow-afk | or worse case: cay-yeow | 01:44 |
nsh | if you have time to pronounce cow with two syllables, chances are you're NOT EVOLVING HARD ENOUGH | 01:44 |
QuantumG | heh | 01:45 |
katsmeow-afk | i am convinced some chars from Star Wars were named after southern words: Chewbacca? = do you chew tobacco? <<== i have heard that myself | 01:45 |
QuantumG | whenever I see quotes from ye-olde books I see people putting 'e' on the end of dozens of words I've never seen 'e' on the end of before. | 01:45 |
katsmeow-afk | i do that in fun sometimes | 01:46 |
QuantumG | it's like people in the 17th century just thought it was funny to shove 'e' on the end of words | 01:46 |
katsmeow-afk | maybe it was a gender denotation, like 'o' and 'a'? | 01:46 |
QuantumG | I just imagine wig wearing dudes with quill pens scribbling e's and giggling like people writing 'oh hai' today | 01:47 |
katsmeow-afk | and as prudish as some were back then, the ducks were naked for down pillows and writing pens | 01:50 |
katsmeow-afk | that thorium speech is 70megabytes, i'd prefer html text and pics | 01:51 |

QuantumG | if you're gunna read you might as well just read a book on the subject | 02:01 |
katsmeow-afk | there's been a lot on the internet over thorium | 02:02 |
QuantumG | wanna know why? | 02:03 |
katsmeow-afk | cause it's good stuff? | 02:03 |
QuantumG | http://selenianboondocks.com/2010/01/happy-new-year/ | 02:03 |
QuantumG | he's talking about ITAR and its restriction on speech about rockets by knowledgeable people | 02:04 |
QuantumG | but the same argument applies to nuclear secrecy. | 02:04 |
QuantumG | "It is annoying to me that my concepts are probably reinventing the square wheel for the most part and the people that know can’t straighten me out or take the few good ones further." | 02:05 |
* katsmeow-afk nods | 02:06 | |
katsmeow-afk | well, the other thing i have noticed is some misinfo on military design, like the accordion submarine plans, praps no one wants the idiotic plans debunked | 02:08 |
QuantumG | ya, those parts of ITAR are funny.. it specifically prohibits US citizens from telling non-US citizens that they are designing their weapons wrong. | 02:10 |
QuantumG | I watch ITAR violations happen on the arocket list every day | 02:10 |
QuantumG | because many of the people on there would rather say "you're more likely to blow your hands off using that propellant, don't do that." than obey the law. | 02:11 |
katsmeow-afk | damned considerate well meaning bastards | 02:14 |
katsmeow-afk | oops, sorry | 02:14 |
katsmeow-afk | didn't mean to say that aloud | 02:14 |
QuantumG | I've sure the US gov would prefer them to allow all those evil foreigners to blow their fingers off | 02:15 |
katsmeow-afk | well, sure, less fingers = less ieds | 02:15 |
katsmeow-afk | i am stillw aiting on the black hats to deny they got the xmas bomber to use the wrong materials or the wrong methods | 02:19 |
katsmeow-afk | "x blows up ok, and y blows up ok, but x + y is a really big bang", when praps it's a dud, as it was | 02:19 |

* thesnark goes on to actually read the article | 15:50 | |
kanzure | right | 15:50 |
kanzure | the article got it right i think | 15:50 |
kanzure | at least the concept of (1) not everyone wants to make their own screws, and (2) different people call it "quits" at different places, so instruction generation is really useful | 15:50 |
thesnark | this strategy is already being used by a few companies, olimex in bulgaria being one | 15:52 |
thesnark | it will be interesting to see how the regulations get with this stuff | 15:52 |
thesnark | I bet you the powers that be will claim "safety issues" with open source hardware or something stupid like that | 15:52 |
kanzure | yep, so kits would come with the warnings and signed consent and other things like that | 15:53 |
thesnark | =D | 15:53 |

kanzure | were you in here when andres explained his idea for wiring up skdb and octopart? the automatic ordering system i pitched him | 15:54 |
thesnark | no | 15:56 |
kanzure | user picks something they want to build/make on an skdb-front-end-website -> spits out a BOM -> BOM goes to octopart -> results are organized, classified, cheapest first, etc. etc. -> parts on material list are automatically purchased once the user types in cc info and whatever | 15:59 |

genehacker | how fast is the process? | 18:32 |
JayDugger | I've never seen good details on the process, and it might have encumbering patents. | 18:32 |
JayDugger | I've meant for decades to try it in an aquarium, but good intentions pave a slow road to anywhere. | 18:33 |
JayDugger | sorry, good intentions pave a slow road to nowhere. | 18:33 |
genehacker | well seawater sitting in an aquarium for a long time can't be good either | 18:33 |
JayDugger | Oh, I don't know. People keep salt water fish in aquariums, after all. | 18:34 |

genehacker | salt water tends to like to form growing salty crusts as it dries | 18:34 |
JayDugger | I know from my Dad's experience that it's not easy, but hardly impossible. | 18:34 |
JayDugger | Yeah, I spent some time in the Navy. :) | 18:34 |
genehacker | well I guess you could kill all that biological stuff and be fine | 18:35 |
JayDugger | In a test tank, you'd just buy ocean salt mix from a pet store, dip a chicken wire mesh, and attach a power supply. | 18:35 |
genehacker | anyway so you want to use it to print huge structures in seawater | 18:35 |
genehacker | well find a cheap aquarium or something on craigslist and make a space in your garage | 18:36 |
JayDugger | I don't know about that. I live pretty far inland, and probably wouldn't use it anything larger than a forty-gallon tank would hold. | 18:36 |
JayDugger | Right. | 18:36 |
JayDugger | Step 0: buy a house with a garage. | 18:37 |
genehacker | I live fairly inland two | 18:37 |
genehacker | *too | 18:37 |
genehacker | also in Dallas area | 18:37 |
JayDugger | Really? We might be neighbors, at least for Texas-sized definitions of "neighbor." | 18:37 |
genehacker | I live in Plano | 18:38 |
JayDugger | Irving, here. | 18:38 |
JayDugger | Too bad there's no details on the rockprinter site. | 18:39 |
genehacker | http://www.green-trust.org/seacrete.htm | 18:40 |
genehacker | http://users.soe.ucsc.edu/~minides/ | 18:41 |
genehacker | found it | 18:41 |
JayDugger | UT Austin, no less. | 18:41 |
JayDugger | Ah, Thank. | 18:42 |
JayDugger | thanks, even. | 18:42 |
genehacker | yup and hookem | 18:42 |
genehacker | this is the 3d gazebo printer thing I was talking about: | 18:44 |
genehacker | http://www.d-shape.com/ | 18:44 |
genehacker | it has a resolution of 25 DPI | 18:44 |
JayDugger | And for fairly large objects, too. | 18:45 |
genehacker | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biorock | 18:49 |
genehacker | so it's an expensive process | 18:49 |
genehacker | but I wonder if you could use a guided electrode to grow weird shapes | 18:50 |
kanzure | i haven't seen any EEG papers showing anything better than 15 words/minute | 18:51 |
genehacker | is that faster than stephen hawking's current output method? | 18:51 |
JayDugger | I don't see why you couldn't, or use successive electrode sheets to layer up any thickness you please. | 18:51 |
kanzure | stephen has been getting slower and slower | 18:51 |
JayDugger | Whether you'd get stronger results with electrodes more like rebar than conductive thread, I don't know. | 18:52 |
genehacker | he doesn't use EEG | 18:52 |
kanzure | last time i heard he was working on a system of blinks | 18:52 |
genehacker | yeah | 18:52 |
JayDugger | My ignorance of concrete fills volumes. | 18:52 |
genehacker | well you can treat concrete like a composite and it's generally pretty hard to figure out the strength of composites without testing them | 18:53 |
genehacker | though calculating young's modulus is pretty easy | 18:54 |
JayDugger | Point taken. I'm not about to try making any in the next few days, so no worries. | 18:55 |
genehacker | seacrete costs $1 per kg so it's fairly expensive | 18:55 |
JayDugger | Where did you find that number? | 18:55 |
genehacker | wikipedia | 18:55 |
JayDugger | Found it. | 18:56 |
genehacker | whoa traditional concrete cost about $0.05 per kg | 18:58 |
JayDugger | Ha. That explains why we build cities of the stuff. | 18:58 |
genehacker | seacrete's 22 times more expensive | 18:58 |

flamt | 18:50 < flamt> brb | 18:59 |
JayDugger | Concrete's harder to repair, I expect. | 19:00 |
genehacker | well that could change the lifecycle cost | 19:01 |
genehacker | be interesting to see which is cheaper | 19:01 |
JayDugger | Good point. I think that calculation would depend on specifics of each case. | 19:03 |
flamt | http://ansistego.sf.net/critter-art.png | 19:04 |

Trooem | any mechanical, electronics parts? | 20:11 |
Trooem | ah.. it's something very private. i can't discuss it openly in the channel. | 20:11 |
Trooem | maybe one day hahaha | 20:11 |
genehacker | join #reprap if you want to know more about reprap | 20:11 |
Trooem | it can make 50k per month for sho 'cause it's all about messing with the world believe it or not :P | 20:12 |
genehacker | I think I know what your making trooem if it involves mechanical and electronic parts and is private | 20:12 |
Trooem | hahaha | 20:12 |
Trooem | don't go there | 20:12 |

Trooem | oh.............. | 20:13 |
Trooem | i'm sorry. | 20:13 |
Trooem | i was way off. | 20:13 |
Trooem | no no.... it's more to do with gathering intelligence. like a spytool of sort. i've ran the idea of it to few people, and they said it's certainly plausible to make... | 20:14 |
Trooem | haha | 20:14 |
Trooem | but will it make money? | 20:14 |
Trooem | yes, if i sell it underground with a purpose | 20:15 |
Trooem | but hey....... | 20:15 |
Trooem | wrong idea there maybe. | 20:15 |
Trooem | i shall shut up now. | 20:15 |

Trooem | 20k! | 20:19 |
Trooem | im not qualified to answer that, but im probably right. | 20:19 |
Trooem | any sufficiently good fabrication of anything requires a good amount of .... well, 20k. | 20:19 |
Trooem | tried thinking of making a mocap studio with 3D characters. | 20:20 |
Trooem | needed 20k. | 20:20 |
genehacker | I'm sure you could check kanzure's fablab inventory and figure the cost | 20:20 |
Trooem | tried getting into the video game industry purchase of license 20k. | 20:20 |
genehacker | I think it's more than 20k though | 20:21 |
Trooem | kanzure is an anomoly. he can probably do it for 2k. | 20:21 |

Trooem | i am so addicted to castlevania symphony of the night... | 21:43 |
flamt | genehacker: yeah it's a cellular automata running on an eco sim | 21:46 |
flamt | like it's vertical streaks because i scroll it up to teach them the row size | 21:46 |
flamt | then it's animated in two directions in time | 21:47 |
flamt | so they see this is the same kind of input as their retina | 21:47 |
flamt | just with 3 channels not 4 since i can't show alpha | 21:47 |
flamt | then i expect horizontally coherent patterns to appear | 21:47 |
flamt | but so far i'm having trouble wiring them into it for long when it gets brighter they slow down | 21:47 |
flamt | i'm overfeeding them and pushing brain mutations | 21:47 |

flamt | from critterding <_< | 21:48 |
flamt | >_> | 21:48 |
flamt | yeah 7 synapses per cell was too many with 2 they're moving ahead but its slow | 21:48 |
flamt | actually i could only have 5 | 21:49 |
flamt | well the array is 64*48*3 | 21:49 |
flamt | 9,216 | 21:49 |
flamt | they have almost 2000 neurons so i could have 5 synapses per unique colour cell in the psychic grid | 21:49 |
flamt | but i couldnt have 7 you can see that | 21:49 |
flamt | even 3 killed most of them eventually though poor bastards | 21:49 |
flamt | now i'm trying 2 per | 21:49 |
flamt | about hmm a third of the screen | 21:50 |
flamt | then they have 1 motor connection per neuron to it but there are twice as many of those so they have write to maybe a tenth | 21:50 |
flamt | darn | 21:50 |
flamt | but strains will not be randomly assigned locations in it like i did to load these in | 21:50 |
flamt | from the old sim | 21:50 |
flamt | strains will use the same cells | 21:50 |
flamt | anyway. they will make art and myths and shit | 21:51 |

flamt | the disabled can just watch it instead of suffering | 21:51 |

flamt | but. still brb | 21:51 |
flamt | oh it's 1024 frames long >_> | 21:51 |
flamt | 9,216 colour elements * 1024 frames == 9 mega colour elements | 21:51 |
flamt | so it's like, really big to them | 21:52 |
flamt | that's what i'm going for | 21:52 |
flamt | bye ._. | 21:52 |
genehacker | 2000 neurons seems like an awful lot per critter | 21:55 |
genehacker | how many are in a litter? | 21:55 |
genehacker | if you keep them in one location they'll probably learn to recognize one object | 21:57 |
genehacker | IE they'll be just like a parrot that can only repeat words and not form them into coherent sentences | 21:57 |

flamt | the american government in the guise of scientology popped up in my life because i talk to aliens and advocate lsd | 23:29 |
flamt | i camped out alone one night which sounds so nice and they chipped my skull | 23:29 |
flamt | now this thing makes mocking noises and sensations in the upper left of my head all day for days now | 23:30 |
flamt | for a few days after new years it was trying to make me believe it was from aliens or some intelligent fungus | 23:30 |
flamt | so i actually enjoyed having it and hearing from it | 23:30 |
flamt | now it's just making impressions of huge smiles and reminding me of the night they used it to electroshock me | 23:30 |
flamt | about a week ago | 23:30 |
flamt | my neighbours downstairs are pretending to be some sick woman and her kid but it's a bunch of CIA people with clearance | 23:30 |
flamt | my landlord finally figured out something was the hell wrong, they've been trying to get him to evict me for six months so i've been living rent free | 23:30 |
flamt | lol | 23:31 |
flamt | and so for the foreseeable future | 23:31 |
flamt | they called the cops three times between christmas and new years so i couldnt like, party alone for that | 23:31 |
flamt | trying to get me put in the hospital which they couldn't, but did last year this time | 23:31 |
flamt | also for christmas, then | 23:31 |
flamt | this is what they do, pop up in your life and try to terrify you | 23:31 |
flamt | all the implant does is make these dumb smiling and inappropriately happy impressions and sounds | 23:31 |
flamt | wet mouth sounds like smiling all the time, really happy and it wont stop being so happy | 23:31 |
flamt | at really bad times especially | 23:31 |
flamt | and i know they're doing it from downstairs. that sounds so stupid | 23:32 |
flamt | it's supposed to | 23:32 |
flamt | google implants and look at the offensive obvious psy-ops disinfo shit you get | 23:32 |

flamt | what you hear is like ridiculous words or just mocking noises and you're not supposed to record it because of how it would look | 23:33 |
flamt | but now i do because in ten years i'll be breeding not a-life but bacteria | 23:33 |
flamt | and i'll be feeding them not glucose but titanium | 23:33 |
flamt | and i'll spill this shit from time to time | 23:33 |

flamt | i just need reasons | 23:33 |
flamt | i just need reasons. | 23:33 |
flamt | >:| | 23:33 |
flamt | i'm not confused by like the sound of myself blinking, smiling or breathing | 23:34 |
flamt | it's really in my head, since '07, and i've been absolutely sure since well start of this year | 23:34 |
flamt | i don't know why they wanted to make me absolutely sure for PR or to discredit me i expect | 23:34 |
