ENKI-][ | he doesn't speak unless spoken to | 08:39 |
ENKI-][ | i can mute this one entirely | 08:39 |
ENKI-][ | horray for markovsky codebase, eh? | 08:39 |
Director_X | thanks for bringing that up kanzure. I think I'll start the project up again and test it out on my cat. | 08:44 |
ThomasEgi | Director_X, ... what project^? | 08:48 |
ThomasEgi | btw.. testing on animals is meany. | 08:48 |
ENKI-][ | i'm glad that some of you aren't shy about unauthorized animal experimentation | 08:48 |
ENKI-][ | does this involve vivisection? | 08:48 |
Director_X | it was an experiment to try to short circuit a taser | 08:48 |
Director_X | it is in the name of science | 08:49 |
ThomasEgi | Director_X, wear conductive clothing | 08:49 |
ThomasEgi | anything else wont work | 08:49 |
ThomasEgi | the name of scienec doesnt justify unncessary torture. | 08:50 |
Director_X | you don't think a latice of wires would short the taser? | 08:50 |
ThomasEgi | if it's dense enough. it will | 08:51 |
kanzure | microgrants platform for diybio http://www.rwjf.org/files/research/69748breakthroughstocures.pdf | 08:52 |
Director_X | I thought the caps might be good to attatch just in case the wires couldn't handle the voltage. not sure if that is sound thinking though | 08:52 |
ThomasEgi | capacitors are 100% useless here | 08:52 |
Director_X | I'm joking about the cat btw. | 08:53 |
ENKI-][ | don't make your conductive clothing out of steel wool | 08:53 |
kanzure | i should be more specific; that pdf recommends a microgrants platform for diybio be created | 08:53 |

Director_X | Hey ThomasEgi, are you an electrical engineer by chance? | 09:52 |
ThomasEgi | indeed i am | 09:53 |
ThomasEgi | altho not yet graduated. but that doesnt really matter^ | 09:54 |
Director_X | any guesses on this phenomenon? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pY745NxZwsY&feature=related | 09:55 |
ThomasEgi | well. there are several effects | 09:59 |
ThomasEgi | there's the skin effects. where high frequency AC dont only penetrate into conductors to a certain depth, | 10:00 |
ThomasEgi | that would not work for regular grid-ac tho. i guess you simply need dry skin to not fry yourself | 10:00 |
ThomasEgi | in any case.. | 10:00 |
ThomasEgi | DONT TRY AT HOME | 10:00 |

Director_X | There has to be some kind of stage magic going on there. He puts that thing in his mouth, next to all of those dental nerves, and doesn't flinch. | 10:17 |
ThomasEgi | he does that when connecting the 2 wires. | 10:24 |
ThomasEgi | electricity always takes the path of least resistance. and why flowing over nerves when there is a nice piece of metal? | 10:25 |
Utopiah | Neuroscience: Browsing and the brain http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v470/n7332/full/470037a.html (no pdf :/ | 10:31 |

Director_X | i don't know man. I think the guy is a human capacitor. | 10:33 |
kanzure | Utopiah: do you want the pdf | 10:33 |
ThomasEgi | Director_X, you can think what you want. but please dont try to bend physics with your imagination | 10:33 |
Utopiah | kanzure: yes, cant find it | 10:33 |
kanzure | phreedom: i really can't do everything on my own, | 10:34 |
kanzure | but a pyscholar irc bot would be realllly handy right about now | 10:34 |
kanzure | !fetch http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v470/n7332/full/470037a.html | 10:34 |
Director_X | lol. I think the laws of physics are safe. | 10:38 |
ThomasEgi | then you have to accept the fact that a human body's not a capacitor (at least not to a extend you may wish for it) | 10:40 |
ENKI-][ | kanzure: i hear you're playing with android. have you run into any trouble with the emulator? the binary was set up to work only with a particular version of glibc, and i'm refusing to recompile glibc just to get it working | 10:44 |
Director_X | umm...humans are conductive and do have some capacitance, but I think I get what you are saying | 10:46 |
ENKI-][ | hm | 10:47 |

ENKI-][ | does your pyscholar thing output the text of papers as ascii, or does it just do abstracts and links | 10:50 |

kanzure | ENKI-][: pyscholar is supposed to be like zotero except not built into a browser | 10:59 |
kanzure | it doesn't work at the moment and requires a developer (probably me, but i don't have time today) | 10:59 |
ENKI-][ | kanzure: do you think it's feasible to get a bot to search locally-hosted documentation effectively given more or less freeform queries that it attempts to match semantically? | 11:08 |
ENKI-][ | like, compute semantic distance and rank by that? | 11:09 |
ENKI-][ | compute semantic distance for everything in the chatlogs and then for everything in the docs | 11:09 |
kanzure | not really- the semantic relevancy of terms surrounding a link to a pdf in this chatroom might not be appropriate since we don't always/consistently talk about the paper in question | 11:11 |
kanzure | maybe if the bot was paired up with mendeley or something | 11:11 |
timschmidt | well, reprap-dev and reprap-admin have been interesting lately | 11:16 |
timschmidt | probably didn't advance your cause any though, kanzure | 11:18 |
timschmidt | :-/ | 11:18 |
kanzure | what didn't advance my cause? | 11:18 |
timschmidt | the recent bickering on the various reprap lists | 11:19 |
timschmidt | lots of people upset at the thought the developing their pet projects in the open would be good for RepRap | 11:20 |
timschmidt | either 1: because they'd like to make money from it first, or 2: because they just don't want to | 11:21 |
timschmidt | it's been interesting | 11:21 |
timschmidt | and no lack of similar motivations on the opposing side | 11:21 |
kanzure | it's probably just that they don't understand how this will all work out | 11:21 |
timschmidt | how so? | 11:22 |
kanzure | if you want interesting, there's been a huge thread on the thingiverse mailing list about future features and crap objects on thingiverse.com | 11:22 |
timschmidt | orly? | 11:22 |
kanzure | timschmidt: there's the usual misunderstandings about GPL, but bringing it into the hardware world generates even more misunderstanding and opportunities for education | 11:22 |
kanzure | for instance, "YOU MUST RELEASE NO MATTER WHAT!!" versus "you must release with your distributions" versus "you must release even if i don't buy from you" | 11:22 |
timschmidt | yes, there's some of that, but more of 'no one cares about what I'm doing, it can't possibly be relevant to anyone else's interests' | 11:23 |
timschmidt | and just recently I said "Source availability not only matters, it's crucial to the advancement of the community." | 11:24 |
timschmidt | which was followed up with "I think that you need to accept that that is your opinion and that it isn't anything resembling an article of faith within the Reprap community. | 11:25 |
timschmidt | Raising your opinion to the level of some sort of technological Sharia law simply isn't acceptable." | 11:25 |
timschmidt | which is awesome | 11:25 |
timschmidt | argument's over now though | 11:25 |
timschmidt | please don't get involved | 11:25 |

kanzure | timschmidt: sure | 11:37 |
jebba | timschmidt, i saw the same thing. Yikes. They need a reprap-misc list so all the non-dev stuff has an outlet. | 11:37 |
kanzure | they have reprap-users but nobody wants to use it "since reprap-dev is where the activity is!!" | 11:38 |
kanzure | maybe we can recommend openmanufacturing? *shrug* | 11:38 |
jebba | openmanufacturing? You mean the expired domain!? | 11:38 |
timschmidt | and to be fair, whether or not reprap development is open source is a -dev issue | 11:38 |
jebba | ah, google list. | 11:38 |
kanzure | jebba: http://groups.google.com/group/openmanufacturing | 11:38 |
kanzure | timschmidt: yeah, reprap.org development should be open source, since it's an open source project :P | 11:39 |
timschmidt | it's just that there are lots of people involved in the project that don't have previous open source dev'ing experience | 11:39 |
kanzure | but if you're forking the project into a private thing, then that's fine, but since it's private how will you collaborate? | 11:39 |
timschmidt | and some of them are very loud | 11:39 |
timschmidt | kanzure: right | 11:39 |
jebba | timschmidt, i was thinking similar. Even to me biz is -dev too, but i wouldnt dare broach the subject there. But no one is really a -user yet. ;) | 11:39 |
timschmidt | kanzure: unfortunately, as the reply above shows, that's not universally acknowledged | 11:40 |
timschmidt | That wasn't a comment from a random, either. That was Forest. | 11:40 |
kanzure | forest has been rather offensive lately :/ | 11:41 |
kanzure | i mean, in some other interactions | 11:41 |
kanzure | i forwarded you the 30something emails | 11:41 |
timschmidt | no | 11:42 |
timschmidt | i don't think so | 11:43 |
kanzure | cat herding | 11:47 |
timschmidt | forwarding you the mail I send Sebastien... | 11:52 |
timschmidt | done | 11:54 |
kanzure | nice sentiments but why tell sebastien that? | 11:57 |
timschmidt | it was part of a larger conversation | 11:57 |
timschmidt | the gist being that some people of standing will probably get pissed and leave as the project grows. c'est la vie. | 11:58 |
kanzure | ah okay. | 12:00 |
kanzure | in case anyone cares, anthony.aragues will also be committing some test.scad files to that one gitduino repository that we were talking about on the 28th last month | 12:06 |
kanzure | it's still buggy but i figure he really really wants to help out, so :) | 12:06 |

kanzure | timschmidt: are you busy? :D maybe i can convince you to reformat package_spec.yaml for public consumption? | 12:10 |
timschmidt | I'll have time to look at it in a few short minutes... | 12:10 |
kanzure | http://diyhpl.us/cgit/skdb/plain/doc/package_spec.yaml | 12:11 |
timschmidt | I've had some ideas about dependency resolution, instruction compiling, etc. | 12:11 |
timschmidt | as well | 12:11 |
kanzure | html/pdf would be preferable | 12:11 |
kanzure | ok | 12:11 |
timschmidt | which I mention because they firm up requirement for the package spec | 12:12 |
kanzure | i think the 0.001 specification should be mostly this idea of (1) metadata and (2) put yer damn files in the damn folder and (3) revision control your sorry little butts | 12:13 |
kanzure | and it needs to be reformatted before it gets emailed out, because people will miss what it says and focus on its presentation instead :/ | 12:14 |
kanzure | bbl busy busy busy | 12:14 |

joshcryer | Director_X came back, awesome. | 15:21 |
joshcryer | I'll never understand body mod people, you can achieve the same thing with external additions. | 15:21 |
kanzure | what about heart valves | 15:22 |
kanzure | or prosthetic limbs | 15:22 |
joshcryer | Those aren't modifications those are replacements. | 15:23 |
joshcryer | Or in the case of some people, enhancements (blind people getting ocular implants, or people with seziures getting electronic treatment, etc). | 15:24 |
ThomasEgi | joshcryer, imagine wikipedia beeing hooked up right to your nerves | 15:24 |
ThomasEgi | makes a big different during an exam | 15:24 |
kanzure | ThomasEgi: i can imagine, but it's not hooked up | 15:24 |
kanzure | thank you | 15:24 |
joshcryer | ThomasEgi, sure, but at this point you are verging on upload territory. | 15:24 |
kanzure | and don't tell me eeg can do that | 15:24 |
kanzure | oops, i didn't mean to send "thank you" | 15:24 |
ThomasEgi | who's eeg? | 15:24 |
ThomasEgi | joshcryer, what do you mean by "verging on upload territory"? | 15:25 |
joshcryer | ThomasEgi, because for it to be an advancement it'd have to give you knowledge without learning it. If you're learning it you may as well be looking at it on a screen. | 15:25 |
joshcryer | ThomasEgi, if you can tap into brain inputs you are very close to being able to copy a brain wholesale. | 15:26 |
ThomasEgi | joshcryer, who cares. you have that knowledge accessible ;) | 15:26 |
joshcryer | ThomasEgi, heheh, fair enough, but I prefer glasses that have a nice screen as opposed to neural implants that require risky surgury. | 15:26 |
ThomasEgi | sure. onscreen-implant would be even more awesome | 15:26 |
joshcryer | Contact lenses would be cool. | 15:27 |
ThomasEgi | afaik there already are contact lenses with led-arrays | 15:27 |
joshcryer | Also, I am not sure that I would want my brain to have intuitive knowledge of all of wikipedia. | 15:27 |
ThomasEgi | na it's not intuitive knowledge | 15:28 |
QuantumG | I want the surgery because I want more than shit displayed on my vision | 15:28 |
joshcryer | It would allow wikipedia to effectively run my consciousness, covertly. | 15:28 |
ThomasEgi | it's still the same as typing into wikipedias search bar | 15:28 |
ThomasEgi | it's not hooked up to the brain | 15:28 |
QuantumG | I want more than the existing 5 senses | 15:28 |
ThomasEgi | but just to some nerves somewhere | 15:28 |
ThomasEgi | so you can braille-read articles | 15:28 |
joshcryer | QuantumG, me too, but I'll wait for an advanced body for that. | 15:28 |
joshcryer | Meat is so inefficient. | 15:28 |
joshcryer | ThomasEgi, vision is the fastest way to do input to the brain. | 15:29 |
ThomasEgi | QuantumG, you only have 5 senses??? | 15:29 |
joshcryer | It's the largest part of the brain dedicated to sensory input. | 15:29 |
QuantumG | sight, hearing, smell, taste, touch | 15:29 |
ThomasEgi | joshcryer, that's true. but unlike HUD contactlenses, electrical electrodes are easily available :P | 15:29 |
ThomasEgi | acceleration is also a sense. | 15:29 |
ThomasEgi | temperature | 15:29 |
QuantumG | sure | 15:30 |
ThomasEgi | makes 7 already. | 15:30 |
joshcryer | That's touch. | 15:30 |
joshcryer | You cannot sense accelration without touch. | 15:30 |
ThomasEgi | you can^ | 15:30 |
QuantumG | balance is technically touch too .. but whatever | 15:30 |
ThomasEgi | it's not^ | 15:30 |
QuantumG | you get the point.. | 15:30 |
ThomasEgi | balance is a skill. | 15:31 |
-!- strages [~809e4e63@dev.throwthemind.com] has quit [Quit: CGI:IRC] | 15:31 | |
ThomasEgi | so to say a feedback loop which includes your visual , alleleration and pressure senses , in combination with motoric actors aka muscles | 15:31 |
ThomasEgi | one could even argue there are senses since translatorical and angular acceleration are "messured" seperately. | 15:32 |
joshcryer | If I were to do this, which I will probably some day, I'd have accelerometers in my setup, that would give me a visual feedback for which direction I'm moving in. | 15:32 |
joshcryer | Color for speed, etc, basic stuff. | 15:33 |
QuantumG | anyway, with today's technology one could easily have gps implanted in their brain and have native knowledge of their absolute position / velocity | 15:33 |
ThomasEgi | acceleration wont give you a preception of speed | 15:33 |
joshcryer | The speed of the direction. | 15:33 |
ThomasEgi | joshcryer, not even that. | 15:33 |
ThomasEgi | acceleration only give you a sense of the "change" of your speed. | 15:33 |
joshcryer | I am running forward, the top of the HUD would have a faint red. | 15:34 |
ThomasEgi | joshcryer, speed != acceleration | 15:34 |
ThomasEgi | it would only show something during the acceleration | 15:34 |
ThomasEgi | once you'r running it wont do a bit | 15:34 |
joshcryer | ThomasEgi, correct. | 15:34 |
ThomasEgi | you can meassure angular speed,tho. | 15:35 |
joshcryer | Did you guys see Willo Garages video updates? | 15:36 |
joshcryer | They showed off some neat robots. | 15:36 |
joshcryer | My favorite was the 'bug' that ran around the table. | 15:36 |
joshcryer | And. The Hightek robot from Japan. | 15:36 |
joshcryer | Which was ridiculously cool looking. | 15:36 |
joshcryer | Though its capablities were obviously due to the way it was made, with a focus on finding its center of gravity and whatnot. | 15:37 |
joshcryer | The bug, btw, was neat in that it had two wheels and there was an emphasis on over doing it, so it'd seem like it was about to drive off the table but then it just stopped and changed its mind. :) | 15:38 |

timschmidt | from what I could gather, they specifically avoided developers | 16:16 |
timschmidt | in favor of end user types | 16:17 |
* timschmidt also filled out a form - the day they became available | 16:17 | |
pasky | QuantumG: the sense of balance and acceleration is "technically touch" about as much as hearing is | 16:44 |
QuantumG | yeah true | 16:45 |

kanzure | i might, what's up | 20:03 |
jennicide | has the h++ movement adopted an official term? | 20:04 |
jennicide | homotechnologus ? | 20:04 |
kanzure | transhumanism | 20:04 |
kanzure | transhuman/posthuman.. what have you. | 20:05 |
jennicide | is there a mission statement | 20:06 |
jennicide | or is it more a bunch of collective works | 20:06 |
kanzure | there's an organization called humanity+ which was originally 'the world transhumanist association' | 20:13 |

QuantumG | http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QIX5a9HouKM <- did ya see this? I wonder if they know how technocratic they sound | 20:13 |
kanzure | what is technocratic | 20:14 |
QuantumG | "Technocracy is a hypothetical form of government in which engineers, scientists, and other technical experts are in control of decision making in their respective fields." | 20:15 |

jrabbit | QuantumG: i think I've seen you before. | 20:33 |
QuantumG | probably | 20:33 |
jrabbit | Wait I think you're on slashdot no? | 20:33 |
QuantumG | yup | 20:34 |
jrabbit | Ah thats it. | 20:34 |
jrabbit | QuantumG: actually the technocracy movement left some interesting plans for nationbuilding | 20:35 |
jrabbit | like their "technate" idea that theres a aprticular size of nation that lets it have the ability to choose its own economic system | 20:35 |
QuantumG | I don't doubt it.. bit hard to get worse than the baboons who run the nations now :) | 20:36 |
jrabbit | Its not a great governance strategy but its a nifty look at technology and the state | 20:36 |
kanzure | QuantumG: does it worry you that people know you because of slashdot? | 20:48 |
kanzure | i mean, of all things.. | 20:48 |
kanzure | "oh you're that guy who uses slashdot" | 20:49 |
QuantumG | hey, it's how I met you | 20:49 |
jebba | i didnt know you were on slashdot. wtf you do on slashdot? now? | 20:53 |
