kanzurei sort of ignored that because xulrunner-9.0-dev keeps giving me problems (it's xulrunner-dev apparently)00:00
lkclok install that, too.00:00
kanzureunpacking..00:00
lkclinstall xulrunner-dev too.  it's a dummy package (i think)00:00
kanzurexulrunner-9.0-dev still doesn't exist :P00:00
lkclthat's probably a mistake in the packaging00:00
lkclthen grab it manually00:01
kanzurehow big is xulrunner-dev anyway?00:01
kanzureit's taking a while to unpack00:01
lkcldon't arse about :)00:01

fennlkcl: are there any desktop applications using pyjamas yet?00:01
lkclyeah 98% of the examples.00:02
lkclthere's a couple such as raphaeljs and the flashpanel example that don't work00:03
lkclbut i worked out a trick for interacting with javascript (yes, similar to the json hash idea you had)00:03
lkclin fact, _identical_ to that idea :)00:03
kanzurethe json hash thing is stupid00:03
lkclah no it's not.00:03
kanzureit's almost as bad as running a web server just to POST to00:03
lkcl*lol*00:03
lkcli just implemented a JSON storage thing into a hidden iframe (!!)00:04
lkclin pyjamas-desktop, in the picasaweb example.00:04
lkcli'm planning to turn that into a generic method for executing (and, crucially, obtaining the return results of) javascript00:04
lkclinside the web engine00:05
lkclit's the only way.00:05
lkclit's a bugger, huh? :)00:05
lkclanyway - enough.00:05
kanzureyou mean the local storage engine stuff in html5?00:05
lkclno, i mean actually adding a <script > node00:05
lkclwhich stores its return result as the HTML/Text in a hidden iframe!00:05
kanzureoh. i think webkit has an inject-and-run js thing that doesn't involve a script node00:06
lkclfrom outside you have a timer monitoring (in python, this time) the exact same iframe00:06
lkclwaiting for the iframe's content to change!00:06
kanzureisn't it the evaluateJavascript function in webkit?00:06
lkclwell that's fine... as long as you don't mind not being able to gain access to the return result.00:07
lkcland what about MSHTML?00:07
lkclthe MSHTML system doesn't *have* a javascript-evaluate function00:07
kanzurei don't support mshtml for some reason00:07
kanzureoh that's right, because it doesn't run on my platforms00:08
lkclyou should.  you _can_ actually run it under wine :)00:08
kanzurebleh00:08
lkclha ha00:08
kanzureinstalling python-gtk2-dev dependencies00:08
lkclif you need to double-check scraping from the viewpoint of IE, you're going to need to use it.00:08
lkclanyway.  enough.  i really have to go00:08
kanzurealright00:08
kanzurethanks for the assists00:08
lkcldocument this, ok!00:08

fennbut look at what happened with burning man01:29
kanzureit became popular?01:29
fenngoing to the middle of nowhere to do fun stuff doesn't work as a long term plan01:29
fennthe "burning man organization" now officially has a "law enforcement appreciation day"01:30
kanzurei wonder if i have my 'colonize the attacama desert' plans laying around01:30
kanzureoh btw that guy is in sf fenn01:30
fennluke leighton?01:30
kanzureno the calx-ist stuff01:31
kanzure'colonize the attacama desert'01:31
fennright01:31
kanzurei think he heads back to somewhere come march01:31
fennlet's propose it to startupchile and see if they'll give us $40k to jump start it :P01:31
kanzure$40k is crap..01:32
fenncome on, it would be hilarious01:32
kanzureit would be funnier if startupchile also did a voting process01:32
kanzurethen we'd have all the seasteaders voting on that one01:32
fennok so hulahop gets you access to javascript methods from python [y/n]01:33
fennerf01:33
fenndom-altering methods01:33
kanzureyes01:34
fenni dont get it01:34
fennthe whole point was to be able to do js calls01:34
fennotherwise you can use beautifulsoup01:34
kanzurethe point is to access the DOM, actually01:34
fennbeautifulsoup lets you do that, no?01:34
kanzureexecuting the page's js is a nice bonus01:34
kanzurenot quite- it's just parsing the page's content01:35
fennhow is that different?01:35
kanzurethe DOM is a horrible hack and somewhat dynamic throughout the existence of a loaded page01:35
kanzurei don't understand why the example on http://pyxpcomext.mozdev.org/no_wrap/tutorials/hulahop/xpcom-hulahop.html01:36
kanzureuses xpcom at all.01:36

fennum, writing a better GUI for pipetbots i guess01:46
kanzureuhuh..01:46
kanzurewhy does that need a gui?01:46
fennhe's trying to put together a $10k robot but i don't really see the point01:46
fennoh, it's not the GUI that's important01:46
kanzurewasn't that your idea01:46
fennit's jailbreaking the existing equipment from their awful interfaces01:47
kanzureeh. okay.. didn't jonathan do that ok for tecan without a gui?01:47
fennno my idea is a $1k robot01:47
fennand yes cline already did it, sort of01:47
kanzurei mean a cpan module is miles ahead of any shit-tastic gui01:47
JayDuggerGood morning, everyone.01:47
kanzurefor one tecan machine.. that nobody has01:47
fennthe gui is just to make it palatable as a product01:47

fenngosh, prescription drugs are stupidly expensive01:53
fennthink i'll stick to untested research chemicals01:54
kanzureyeah they are pretty close to the price point where it's cheaper to build a lab01:54
JayDuggerMy wife and I would have kept living in sin, if not for my employer's superior insurance.01:54
JayDuggerIf you judge prescription drugs expensive, go shop for wedding rings.01:54
fennwedding rings are supposed to be expensive though01:54
JayDuggerYes, I know...believe me.01:55
fennit's like "i love you *this* much" where $this = $50k01:55
kanzurei wonder if you can participate in a foreign clinical trial while still in the us01:55
kanzurecan you just send your non-patent-rent-seeking drugs overseas, and participate in your own drug trial?01:55
fennthat's a good question01:55
JayDugger$50,000? Why can't I just give up a rib?01:56
fennthe rib would be rejected ... by her immune system01:56
JayDuggerQuiet! I like that fairy tale. ;)01:56
yashgarothI'm pretty sure that violates the whole principle of blinding a study01:56

yashgarothmake the rib into a ring; you can call it the ribbing01:57
yashgarothwomen love ribbing01:57
kanzuresomething something about it costing too much01:57
JayDuggerHmm...I think rebuilding the heirloom ring will cost less.01:58
fenngoodrx doesn't have any of the drugs i want01:59
JayDuggerGoodrx doesn't appear to save me anmoney on Vyvanse nor Adderal.01:59
JayDuggerAdderall, rather01:59
fennyeah, they want $106 for 30 tablets of modafinil01:59
kanzureand then there's the adderall shortage02:00
kanzurealthough i've found i am still paying about the same ($200/mo ish)02:00
kanzurewell, 150.. but still.02:00
fennwhat dosage is that?02:00
kanzure30mg xr02:00
fenn30mg per day?02:01
fennwalgreens has it for way less than that02:01
kanzureno that's non-xr02:01
JayDuggerAnd do you fin a real difference between the name brand and the generic?02:01
kanzurethe generic also costs that much02:01
JayDuggerNot where I live, according to GoodRX.02:02
fennhm ok02:02
kanzureare you sure you're looking at xr?02:02
fennXR is $15102:02
JayDuggerYes. The difference is only about $20.02:02
kanzureand then $10-$15 for 20mg normal tablets02:02
fenncant you just take a bunch of little tablets?02:03
fennor chop them up02:03
JayDuggerWeird. I thought airline tickets had weird prices, but pills have those beat.02:03
kanzureman i don't even remember to eat02:03

kanzurei don't want distractions02:03

JayDuggerAdopt a parrot.02:03
fennsits on your shoulder and feeds you02:03
kanzurewell what i should really do is order it online02:04
JayDuggerYeah. And finish drugstack.02:04
kanzurehmm02:05
kanzuregoodrx is claiming 10mg xr for $3502:05
kanzure"Walgreens offers a for-pay ($20/year individual; $35/year family) plan which reduces prices on some common medications. Only plan members can get these discounts."02:05

kanzurei haven't watched the video09:09
kanzurewhat is it?09:09
kanzurei've met him too09:10
ParahSailin__shit i just commented on the url09:10
ParahSailin__its kind of annoying to hear him talk tbh09:10
kanzurewell i don't know what he can possibly say that's new09:10
ParahSailin__he got sweet thiel money though09:10
kanzureyes he went corporate09:10
kanzurethe title of the video is "Garage Level Biomedical Research Effort Is Taking on Death"09:11
kanzurehow is it garage level with his level of funding!09:11
chris_99as long as its still in a garage ;)09:11
ParahSailin__i think google's 20 percent rule is a good one, applicable to bio folks too09:14
ParahSailin__you should not be 100 % dependent on rich fools for doing the wacky stuff, have regular income in something immediately commercial09:15
kanzureimho the rich fools haven't been funding the important things in transhumanism09:15
ParahSailin__when i start a lab, i will make it support itself first with cell line banking, protein production etc09:15
kanzurewhy is it that pete didn't fund biocurious? besides the fact that the management team of biocurious all hates each other09:16
kanzure*all hate each other09:16
ParahSailin__was schloe originally wiht biocurious?09:17
kanzureumm there's a long and complicated history09:17
ParahSailin__in between sens and immunepath09:17
ParahSailin__yah i didnt really pay much attention09:17
kanzurethe answer seems to be "he claims (perhaps rightfully so) that he was part of a thing that was pre-biocurious but there was a split"09:17

delinquentmekanzure, I think at least IMO that when you can incite people into emotionally charged discussion09:39
delinquentmeyou get to fuck with the *core issues* more and you get people who are viscerally involved in the discussion09:39

kanzurei don't understand all your red-highlight text09:46
kanzurewhat are you trying to argue?09:47
ParahSailin__well there's a tendency to talk past people who dont agree with you, the purpose of the exercise is just to deconstruct why that person holds a belief09:48
kanzureand your question is whether or not that 'why' is a useful thing to ever do?09:48
ParahSailin__maybe the spoiler tags are a bit superfluous09:49
rkosof course empathizing is worthwhile, in its simplest terms think of the nash equilibrium, if you can understand your enemy you can get to a much more favorable end result than by ignoring your enemy09:49
ParahSailin__well, im wondering if that's a good exercise for promoting more effective communication09:49
rkoswell i guess it just depends on whether communication with your rival can produce more benefit than whatever benefit you get from making the symbolic gesture of not communicating with them and just mocking them etc.09:53
kanzurealso i should point out that scaling communication to communicate with everyone is pretty hard09:54
kanzurei've been writing software to help myself do that09:54
kanzurehttp://quantifiedself.com/2011/08/bryan-bishop-on-meetlog/09:55
ParahSailin__most of the people in there have trouble at the one on one scale09:55
kanzureyeah i mean "with everyone that you meet"09:56
ParahSailin__ah :)09:57
ParahSailin__that link does not work for some reason09:57
kanzurequantifiedself.com seems to be down09:57
kanzurewell whatever- it's just some stuff about this tool i've been building09:57
kanzurewhere i log every conversation with tags and who was involved09:57
kanzureand then do analysis on top of this dataset09:58
ParahSailin__tell me more about "tracking every social interaction"09:59
kanzurehttp://diyhpl.us/~bryan/irc/meetlog/09:59
rkoswhy doesnt that site load for me? i mean the quantifiedself one09:59
kanzurei thik they stopped paying their bills10:00
ParahSailin__what are these charts10:01
kanzuresome old graphs of number of people per day10:01
kanzurehttp://diyhpl.us/~bryan/irc/meetlog/2009-07-01_to_2010-02-12-lines.png10:02
ParahSailin__so its to help you remember conversations?10:03
kanzureyes and to remember who i've talked with about certain topics10:04
kanzuremy common example is that when my mom met fenn she asked "what's transhumanism?"10:04
kanzurewhich was really bizarre because transhumanism is pretty important to me, and i thought my mom knew10:04
kanzurebut apparently i had completely neglected to mention anything vaguely transhumanist to her10:04
Urchintelling about transhumanism to my mother was one of my major mistakes10:05
kanzurewell for instance she wanted to know why i was director of r&d of "humanity+"10:06
kanzureParahSailin__: http://diyhpl.us/~bryan/meetlog/people/joseph_jackson.html10:06
kanzurethis folder has some other data- tag clouds10:06

ParahSailin__isnt transcending biology a distinguishing feature of being human?10:08
ParahSailin__why do we need a word transhuman10:09
kanzuredunno10:09
ParahSailin__its the same in principle to wear clothes to make up for lack of fur or to put electrodes in the brain to make up for deficiency in linear computing ability10:10
ParahSailin__i think we're ridiculously far away from anything these "transhumanists" want to do10:13
ParahSailin__as a side note10:13
kanzurethere's all sorts of transhumanist projects already working10:14

The reaction was diluted slowly with water and extracted with CH2Cl2.
