| joshcryer | In addition to tests requested by the user, WinSAT is scheduled to automatically run every week. The default schedule is 1am on Sundays. | 00:03 |
| joshcryer | Never encountered this before. | 00:03 |
| JayDugger | How'd you encounter it? | 00:07 |
| joshcryer | Amazingly compatibility mode kicked on randomly and I was quite disturbed since I didn't run anything. Checked the task manager and there it was. | 00:11 |

| joshcryer | HP set to release NAND flash replacement in 18 months | 00:24 |
| joshcryer | http://www.computerworld.com/s/article/9220652/HP_set_to_release_NAND_flash_replacement_in_18_months | 00:24 |
| joshcryer | "Flash is a done deal," Williams was quoted as saying, "now we're going after DRAM, and we think we can do two orders of magnitude improvement in terms of switching energy per bit." | 00:25 |
| joshcryer | (regarding memristors, naturally) | 00:25 |
| joshcryer | "We're running hundreds of wafers through the fab," he continued. "We're way ahead of where we thought we would be at this moment in time." | 00:25 |
| joshcryer | nanowire crossbars = easy! | 00:25 |
| joshcryer | eetimes has a slightly better article, imo: http://www.eetimes.com/electronics-news/4229171/HP-Hynix-to-launch-memristor-memory-2013 | 00:27 |
| joshcryer | "We could offer 2-Gbytes of memory per core on the processor chip. Putting non-volatile memory on top of the logic chip will buy us twenty years of Moore's Law", said Williams. | 00:47 |

| JayDugger | Do they mean Moore's Law improvements from 2013-2033, or a big jump in capability equal to 2033-era chips in 18 months? | 02:51 |
| JayDugger | Pretty poorly written, even for tech journalism. | 02:51 |
| foucist | JayDugger: the former | 03:32 |
| jrayhawk | it'll be rad if flash manages to come and go before anyone manages to make a mass storage device I can actually run a flash filesystem on | 03:58 |
| jrayhawk | maybe I can make a giant jbod of XD cards | 04:02 |

| joshcryer | The whole memristor's "buy us twenty years of Moore's Law" thing is just semantics. Moores law is about transistor count, 20-30 billion memristors on top of a chip is around 10 times the current top level transistor count (around 3 billion on GeForce 400). | 16:39 |
| joshcryer | Hynix needs to focus on a plug and play option that is USB or SATA based and mass market the heck out of it. | 16:41 |
| joshcryer | Focusing on RAM will require a paradigm change because software and hardware will need a new kind of "power saving" operation mode. How do you handle RAM that is non-volatile, etc? | 16:42 |
| joshcryer | As Stanley Williams said, though, in his "Finding the Missing Memristor" talk (I'm sure you've all seen), the industry doesn't "do anything" until the "gun is pointed to their head and the trigger is about to be pulled." If Hynix is successful they may be the trigger to get it done. A petabyte harddrive for a few hundred bucks would screw up the entire hard drive industry. | 16:46 |
| joshcryer | If they get it working they'll need a "get memrestive!" video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-xPvD0Z9kz8 | 16:51 |

| kanzure | hrm what happened | 20:20 |
| kanzure | ping timeout? what | 20:20 |
| foucist | who knows, i have ignores on all parts/joins | 20:21 |
| jrayhawk | I blame freenode. | 20:21 |
| kanzure | i blame you jrayhawk | 20:22 |
| kanzure | jrayhawk: can i sleep on your couch if i show up | 20:22 |
| jrayhawk | I don't have a couch, but I might be able to arrange something. How long? | 20:22 |
| kanzure | at most, a week. probably less. | 20:22 |
| kanzure | you don't have a couch? | 20:23 |
| kanzure | what's the point of bumming a couch from a friend if your friends don't have couches | 20:23 |
| foucist | $20 inflatable bed with air pump from walmart! | 20:23 |
| jrayhawk | I live in what can charitably be called a 'cottage', so we'd wind up disrupting eachother's sleep schedules, but I'm not sure how problematic that really is, and there are a couple other options I can look into. | 20:25 |
| kanzure | haha what | 20:26 |
| kanzure | geeze i thought you had a pad | 20:26 |
| kanzure | nevermind | 20:26 |
| jrayhawk | I have a shack in the woods. | 20:26 |
| kanzure | wtf | 20:26 |
| jrayhawk | I guess I was probably renting a house around the time we were introducted...? | 20:31 |
| jrayhawk | introduced | 20:32 |
| delinquentme | out of curiosity | 20:35 |
| delinquentme | is it safe to assume that MOST DNA sequencing companies are out there with the specific intent of extending human life? | 20:35 |
| delinquentme | or at very least the lives of people with $$$ and their own lives? | 20:35 |
| delinquentme | jrayhawk, you're in SF? | 20:36 |
| delinquentme | and whats a "cottage" | 20:36 |
| delinquentme | ( if you dont mind me asking ) | 20:36 |
| jrayhawk | No, I'm in Portland. No idea what Kanzure's planning on doing up here. | 20:39 |
| delinquentme | jrayhawk, so im looking to get out that way ... but not into the idea of paying shit loads on rent ... | 20:40 |
| delinquentme | that sounds like an easy way to get decent rent | 20:41 |
| delinquentme | adopt me? | 20:41 |
| delinquentme | no but srsly ... are these lots of those? bc i could be totes into that | 20:41 |
| jrayhawk | Shacks in the boonies probably aren't a good idea unless you're planning on having a car. | 20:43 |
| jrayhawk | And also don't mind mediocre internet connections. | 20:43 |
| kanzure | delinquentme: no, they are just sequencing dna dude | 20:47 |
| delinquentme | why | 20:48 |
| delinquentme | maaannn | 20:48 |
| delinquentme | that pisses me off | 20:48 |
| kanzure | it's a commodity business | 20:48 |
| delinquentme | i donno man | 20:49 |
| kanzure | jrayhawk: i'd be visiting for eric probably | 20:49 |
| jrayhawk | Huh. | 20:49 |
| kanzure | and if i do that i'd want to meet you buttholes | 20:50 |

| jrayhawk | man, you guys are excitable about shacks | 22:14 |
| joshcryer | Nah if it was a unibomber shack I would just quietly forget I asked... | 22:16 |
