katsmeow | [00:58] <[Tiggr]> allele : (genetics) either of a pair (or series) of alternative forms of a gene that can occupy the same locus on a particular chromosome and that control the same character; "some alleles are dominant over others" | 00:58 |

kanzure | "bryan: so I asked Fearless Leader, and he thinks that if a plan could lead up to access to things like hobbyist-level TCMS, or being able to quickly think through and test aspects of other DIY project ideas (mostly biotech), those are points in its favor" | 11:11 |
JayDugger | TCMS? | 11:11 |
kanzure | JayDugger: we're meeting on saturday at 4pm | 11:12 |
kanzure | JayDugger: transcranial magnetic stimulation | 11:12 |
JayDugger | That makes your last post extra intriguing. | 11:12 |
kanzure | "Fearless Leader" is eliezer yudkowsky | 11:13 |
JayDugger | I thought he'd a less sanguine opinion of TCMS. | 11:13 |
kanzure | me too | 11:14 |
kanzure | i haven't seen anything indicating a change in heart | 11:14 |
JayDugger | Who's the antecedent of the pronoun "I" in your post? | 11:14 |
kanzure | steve rayhawk | 11:14 |
JayDugger | Hmm...I don't know him by name or reputation. | 11:15 |
kanzure | you might know "joe rayhawk", a kinda debian developer sortakinda | 11:15 |
kanzure | http://lesswrong.com/user/Steve_Rayhawk/ | 11:15 |
JayDugger | Ahh...I fell behind reading OB, and never caught up once they were on LW. | 11:15 |
kanzure | i never read either of them | 11:16 |
kanzure | i was however once in their rationalism cult up in new york city | 11:16 |
JayDugger | It reminded me too much of the speculative posts on Exi-Chat. | 11:16 |
kanzure | do you still read extropy-chat? | 11:16 |
JayDugger | No. | 11:16 |
kanzure | i've been on the list since 2007 i think | 11:16 |
kanzure | people keep on comparing me to eliezer.. i dunno what to think about that | 11:17 |
JayDugger | I miss the good old days...(blah, blah, blah...) | 11:17 |
JayDugger | You're taller, I think. | 11:17 |
kanzure | the 80s? :P | 11:17 |
kanzure | slightly.. i met eli in person once. | 11:17 |
kanzure | twice | 11:17 |
JayDugger | I'm not quite that old. Max More and Greg Burch have a few years on me. :) | 11:17 |
kanzure | max lives down the street from me | 11:17 |
JayDugger | Does he? | 11:18 |
kanzure | natasha is so sweet | 11:18 |
JayDugger | I've met Burch and Yudkowsky, but not Sandberg nor you--for that matter. | 11:18 |
kanzure | anders is socially awkward, but very fun to talk with | 11:18 |
JayDugger | Like my Swedish relatives. | 11:19 |
kanzure | and eli is lost in his own world :/ | 11:19 |

JayDugger | Yeah...I have the strong suspicion at some time he gave up on AI. | 11:20 |
kanzure | then what is he doing?? | 11:20 |
JayDugger | But he's quite a lot smarter than I am, and I really don't know. | 11:20 |
JayDugger | Working out a rational ethical system? | 11:20 |
kanzure | gah you guys need to stop saying things like that, it only feeds his ego | 11:20 |
JayDugger | Yeah, but I've met LOTS of people smarter than I am. | 11:21 |
kanzure | http://heybryan.org/eli.html | 11:21 |
kanzure | my criticisms, along with others | 11:21 |
JayDugger | I've also met lots of people TALLER or FATTER or <MODIFIER><ATTRIBUTE> than I am. | 11:21 |
JayDugger | So it's an observation first, and a compliment second. | 11:22 |
kanzure | check the link | 11:24 |
JayDugger | I am. | 11:24 |

kanzure | if that's the style on that page, then yeah :/ | 11:33 |
kanzure | i like it actually | 11:34 |
JayDugger | Yeah. I read Synergetics and Critical Path in high school, and Fuller's phrases and neologisms took real effort to decode. | 11:34 |
JayDugger | The <adverb->[adjective]-[adjective],<adverb->[adjective]-[adjective], construction is right out of Fuller. | 11:37 |

kanzure | it's weird how i'm always the last to know about these things though | 18:16 |
kanzure | i.e., gene doping was suspected as early as 2006 in the olympics | 18:16 |

QuantumG | as far as I'm aware, people who have been above the obesity threshold for any significant portion of their lives have stretched their skin so much that it never contracts. | 18:43 |
