katsmeow-afk | pictures show the dart sticking out of his head a good inch, how the hell did no one notice? It's not like it matches one sticking out on the otehr side | 14:35 |

katsmeow-afk | and it didn't fall off at any time during the struggle with cops, or the exam thereafter | 14:36 |
yashgaroth | elastic hat | 14:36 |

roksprok_ | I still have not read Isaccson's Steve Jobs | 19:10 |
roksprok_ | does anyone know if kickstarter will do a chargeback if a reward is not provided? | 19:11 |
kanzure | lots of kickstarter projects don't deliver on the rewards | 19:12 |
kanzure | and in general no it hasn't been the case | 19:12 |
kanzure | kickstarter will only charge you once the project is fully funded and it's the 45 day mark (or whatever) | 19:12 |
roksprok_ | here is a DIY Arduino EEG that it appears like the project creators just kind of quit after a year. http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/86514518/diy-arduino-eeg?ref=users | 19:14 |
yashgaroth | what about if you don't meet the funding goal? | 19:15 |
roksprok_ | no money changes hands then | 19:15 |
kanzure | yashgaroth: project fails to get funded | 19:15 |
yashgaroth | oh that sucks | 19:16 |
kanzure | sadly this was the fate of nmz787's open spectrometer | 19:16 |
kanzure | http://openspectrometer.com/ | 19:16 |
kanzure | http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/makerhaus/open-spectrometer | 19:16 |
roksprok_ | meanwhile there are like 5 internet of things projects that all got 10's of thousands | 19:17 |
yashgaroth | that stupid fucking air pollution egg | 19:17 |
kanzure | it's a social/marketing thing.. plus if you have a great video, that always helps | 19:17 |
kanzure | some people just cultivate a community of people that give them money regularly | 19:17 |
kanzure | so sending them to kickstarter is how they get money out of their pockets | 19:18 |
kanzure | of course, sometimes you post in the right place at the right time and enough people actually need/want whatever you are selling | 19:18 |
roksprok_ | right place = reddit/hackernews/submist to gizmodo? | 19:19 |
roksprok_ | *submit | 19:19 |
kanzure | not always.. | 19:19 |
kanzure | reddit isn't your personal funding machine | 19:20 |
roksprok_ | well what websites are the 'right place'? | 19:20 |
kanzure | if you could predict that then i think you would be making more money than you do | 19:21 |

n_bentha | who's excited for the may 7th launch? | 20:16 |
kanzure | n_bentha: take a look at methodmint.. http://lab.methodmint.com would you use this? | 20:16 |
roksprok_ | are the SpaceX people affiliated with that astroid mining group? | 20:17 |
n_bentha | hmm i wonder | 20:18 |
kanzure | roksprok_: sort of.. probably through peter diamandis | 20:18 |
kanzure | n_bentha: i'm trying to figure out why nobody is using it | 20:18 |
JayDugger | Planetary Resources-to-Bigelow Aerospace...any idea on a connection? | 20:19 |
n_bentha | that is interesting kanzure | 20:19 |
n_bentha | they need a thuimbs up/down for the protocols though | 20:19 |
kanzure | they do have it | 20:20 |
n_bentha | or at least a it worked it didn't work or i don't think it's going to work rating system | 20:20 |
kanzure | hover over the "+2" http://lab.methodmint.com/methods/16/ | 20:20 |
n_bentha | really? | 20:20 |
n_bentha | all is ee is +2 | 20:20 |
n_bentha | see* | 20:20 |
kanzure | ah when i hover over it there are up/down arrows | 20:20 |
n_bentha | hmm | 20:20 |
kanzure | but anyway.. i agree that a more accurate rating system would be useful | 20:20 |
n_bentha | yes | 20:20 |
n_bentha | but i doubt many pi's would like their students using it | 20:21 |
kanzure | why's that? | 20:21 |
n_bentha | idk...cuz it's not from some journal | 20:21 |
JayDugger | Because it short-cuts the dues-paying aspect of student life. | 20:21 |
n_bentha | yes | 20:22 |
n_bentha | exactly | 20:22 |
n_bentha | and cuz the fat cats aren't getting rich off of it | 20:22 |
JayDugger | Cynic: n. One rarely surprised by his fellow men, but very occasionally delighted. | 20:22 |
kanzure | i think another possibility is that most people don't run a lot of protocols | 20:22 |
n_bentha | like if it was used within a university, it'd be fine...but since it's so wide open... | 20:22 |
kanzure | hmm a single university version would be very interesting | 20:23 |
n_bentha | that too, kanz | 20:23 |
JayDugger | That could also be the case. My lab experience is long, long past. | 20:23 |
kanzure | like the way facebook spread | 20:23 |
yashgaroth | !whatup roksprok_? | 20:23 |
kanzure | yashgaroth: would you use methodmint? | 20:23 |
n_bentha | yes, but a single univ version wouldn't be that great anyway. | 20:23 |
JayDugger | Ah...now that's a good point. | 20:23 |
kanzure | http://lab.methodmint.com/methods/ | 20:23 |
kanzure | n_bentha: why's that? | 20:23 |
kanzure | i guess there's only <500 labs per university | 20:23 |
kanzure | so you would have maybe one or two users total | 20:23 |
roksprok_ | yashgaroth: or any protocol sharing site? | 20:24 |
yashgaroth | sure, what's the difference between that and protocol-online or whatever kanz was scraping? | 20:24 |
n_bentha | too small of a community i guess? | 20:24 |
kanzure | protocol-online has no ability to do rating | 20:24 |
n_bentha | 1 university likely had 1 lab for 1 area of research | 20:24 |
roksprok_ | there was some y-combinator company doing online lab journals | 20:24 |
JayDugger | You could focus on protocol sharing standards for a variety of focused sites: school, school system, field, etc. | 20:24 |
yashgaroth | oh well web 3.0 is all about rating | 20:24 |
n_bentha | so u need inter-instiutional commmunication for the best protocls n such | 20:24 |
kanzure | yashgaroth: pfft come on. "protocol does/doesn't work" is super important | 20:24 |
kanzure | yashgaroth: or "protocol requires X standard deviations of care while executing" | 20:25 |
yashgaroth | haha 90% of ratings will be "it didn't work" for any protocol | 20:25 |
kanzure | YES | 20:25 |
kanzure | because they suck | 20:25 |
kanzure | duh | 20:25 |
JayDugger | Good. | 20:25 |
yashgaroth | or just because biology sucks, but yeah | 20:25 |
n_bentha | give it forums, and a rep points system | 20:25 |
kanzure | n_bentha: i think that already exists on this current site | 20:25 |
n_bentha | u know...more points for protocols / protocol comments etc | 20:25 |
JayDugger | I spent months trying to get a RIA to work (redacted) hears ago. | 20:25 |
JayDugger | The lab gave it up a week after I left. | 20:25 |
kanzure | n_bentha: i'm really skeptical because nobody is using this current site | 20:26 |
kanzure | yashgaroth: one idea i had is that it would be nice to be able to call someone up about a protocol | 20:27 |
kanzure | like if your immune tissue culture protocol goes to shit, who the fuck do you call? | 20:27 |
yashgaroth | immunebusters | 20:27 |
yashgaroth | email might be better | 20:27 |
kanzure | still not sure who to email.. some random professors who might have written papers you read once? | 20:28 |
n_bentha | ok kanzure | 20:28 |
n_bentha | you could try the slashdot.org style of mod points | 20:28 |
yashgaroth | whoever it is you'd be calling, email tends to be more polite | 20:28 |
n_bentha | and that website seemed a little unorganized | 20:28 |
kanzure | n_bentha: do you use stackoverflow ever? | 20:28 |
n_bentha | no | 20:28 |
kanzure | ah.. methodmint is copying stackoverflow | 20:28 |
kanzure | http://stackoverflow.com/ | 20:28 |
kanzure | their rating system is widely considered to be successful | 20:28 |
kanzure | as a replacement to expertsexchange | 20:28 |
roksprok_ | somewhat_related_question: is there any cost competiton in grants? like would labs get a competitive advantage if they suddenly could do X for half the normal rate? | 20:28 |
n_bentha | expersexchange LOL | 20:29 |
roksprok_ | either because their protocols were less buggy or they had cheaper consumables | 20:29 |
kanzure | n_bentha: ExpertsExchange not ExpertSexChange ;) | 20:29 |
* yashgaroth has no experience with grants, thankfully | 20:30 | |
kanzure | roksprok_: cheaper protocols/consumables might matter in the <$5000 grant range.. but meh | 20:30 |
n_bentha | ^_^ | 20:31 |
roksprok_ | that's a bummer | 20:34 |
roksprok_ | i guess crap like name recognition is the biggest factor then? and 'how good your science is'? | 20:34 |
yashgaroth | in terms of receiving grants? who you know, and what/where you've published | 20:37 |
roksprok_ | at like the NIH are applications peer reviewed or are there internal reviewers? | 20:38 |
roksprok_ | nvm google | 20:38 |
roksprok_ | so what about industry? it seems like it would be useful for a giant like Pfiezer to have an internal protocol exchange | 20:40 |
kanzure | they have their own custom information management systems that they paid millions for | 20:40 |
yashgaroth | for a large company, there's a database of Standard Operating Procedures | 20:41 |
yashgaroth | which are probably proprietary, no matter how banal they are | 20:41 |
roksprok_ | maybe all the biotech startups then? like keep an updated list of best protocols and you get access to the previous ones by donating yours? | 20:43 |
roksprok_ | or are they mostly doing stuff they've been doing for decades as professors | 20:43 |
yashgaroth | they don't usually make their own protocols, if you need one you ask around | 20:43 |
yashgaroth | everything in biotech is based on previous work, which usually has a protocol attached | 20:44 |
kanzure | and sometimes a grad student attached to the protocol too! | 20:44 |
yashgaroth | they don't feel pain so it's cool | 20:45 |
kanzure | like literally i've seen "oh yeah, this is our emulsions guy" | 20:45 |
kanzure | and it's some underfed grad student that's been around for eight years | 20:45 |
n_bentha | lol | 20:46 |
n_bentha | so true | 20:46 |
yashgaroth | I ended up doing a lot of tweak to my protocols, mostly stuff like "oh yeah you don't need 3 washes x 5 minutes because I'm lazy and it works" | 20:46 |
roksprok_ | did you write it down? and pass it on? | 20:47 |
yashgaroth | nah they laid me off so fuck them | 20:47 |
kanzure | honestly even if he did write it down the prof or w/e probably lost it | 20:47 |
yashgaroth | my boss got laid off too, so it's lost in the sands of time | 20:47 |
n_bentha | for shame | 20:48 |
yashgaroth | no one strictly follows protocol unless they're new or they're working in a GMP facility | 20:48 |
yashgaroth | pfft like anyone times their western blot washes | 20:48 |
kanzure | yashgaroth: well yes, protocols are used to communicate with those who don't know :P | 20:48 |
n_bentha | not true, yashgaroth | 20:48 |
n_bentha | ppl strictly follow the protocol, but not necessarily the one they found in a paper | 20:49 |
roksprok_ | do these protocol-based-inefficenes have readily visible costs that you could point to and say 'your company/lab/department would have saved $X if you had our system in place'? | 20:49 |
n_bentha | like i made my own 'tweaked' protocols, and i'd be consistent about them | 20:49 |
yashgaroth | that's what I mean, I had my own derived protocols, but not the exact one I was handed | 20:49 |
roksprok_ | n_bentha - did you have these tweaks on a computer or written down somewhere? or just remembered it? | 20:50 |
roksprok_ | because if someone just had to upload it they may actually participate, rather than having to write it out | 20:50 |
yashgaroth | it'd be nice to have a collected Q&A with each protocol, so if your bands turn out all blurry you can see what other people did/recommend about it | 20:51 |
n_bentha | roksprok_: i wrote them down ion my lab journal | 20:52 |
n_bentha | yeah...having an online account w/ all my protocols would be cool... | 20:53 |
kanzure | i think sharing protocols should be like sharing playlists or mixtapes :P | 20:53 |
yashgaroth | you guys don't have electronic notebooks? | 20:53 |
kanzure | academic labs have tons of paper notebooks flying around | 20:54 |
yashgaroth | poor bastards | 20:54 |
kanzure | openwetware.org was able to get lots of igem teams to host their notebooks on wikis | 20:54 |

kanzure | i think it might be possible to algorithmically fix protocols with the right sort of data/ratings about what works/doesn't work | 20:57 |
kanzure | yashgaroth: would you consider some protocols harder than others? | 20:58 |
yashgaroth | sure, making buffer is a lot easier than anything in a TC hood | 20:59 |
yashgaroth | but that's more about skill/experience than, like, harder to comprehend | 20:59 |
delinquentme | pakistani death metal ? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k8fXFecuptY | 21:00 |
delinquentme | reminiscent of lamb of god | 21:00 |
yashgaroth | even the most cutting-edge protocols in wetwork are still 'mix A into B, stir, incubate 8 hours' | 21:00 |
roksprok_ | in industry do people normally get plugged into a niche where they are doing the same/similar things and kind of stop paying much attention to protocols? | 21:00 |
kanzure | yeah, it's not like you're doing a different protocol every day | 21:01 |
yashgaroth | yes, especially with large comapnies | 21:01 |
kanzure | even in a lab your project will probably require you to pick a pcr method and stick to it until it works | 21:01 |
yashgaroth | or until it doesn't work :V | 21:02 |
kanzure | yeah but you have to prove it either way :p | 21:02 |
delinquentme | oo so i should be paying attention here | 21:03 |
delinquentme | yashgaroth, what is cutting edge about 'mix A into B, stir, incubate 8 hours' | 21:04 |
yashgaroth | the composition of A and B, usually | 21:04 |
kanzure | strawman.. i don't think yashgaroth claimed it was cutting edge | 21:04 |
delinquentme | thats a liquid handling problem is it not? | 21:04 |
yashgaroth | sure, but pulling tubes out of a centrifuge and then manipulating them is beyond most liquid handlers, at least those more expensive than lab techs | 21:05 |
delinquentme | mix up the compositions of A and B in diff proportions | 21:05 |
delinquentme | yeah thats a robot arm | 21:05 |
yashgaroth | lab automation is a separate issue than compiling protocols | 21:06 |
kanzure | lab protocols is an issue of institutional knowledge | 21:07 |

delinquentme | yashgaroth, but good codified protocols is a step in the direction of automation | 21:12 |
yashgaroth | sure, but programming in which reagents to use will take less time than programming how the arm moves | 21:13 |
yashgaroth | wow this 10x tris buffer protocol is even shittier | 21:13 |
yashgaroth | side note, a lot of labs will use default protocols from the reagent supplier, which is usually freely available | 21:15 |
delinquentme | yashgaroth, why is it an arm? | 21:18 |
delinquentme | :D | 21:18 |
delinquentme | its cool im just going to lead you to the conclusion of my liquid handler | 21:18 |
yashgaroth | 'appendage' sounds too much like a penis reference | 21:19 |
delinquentme | haha but assuming inverse kinematics to layout the physical movements is | 21:19 |
delinquentme | overly complex | 21:19 |
delinquentme | is it not simply up down .. move plate .. up down move plate | 21:19 |
delinquentme | thats a silly scientist problem | 21:20 |

delinquentme | ? | 21:24 |
roksprok_ | so i guess they will do it | 21:25 |
kanzure | delinquentme: why would YC fund you? are you making money? do you have traction? do you have business? | 21:25 |
delinquentme | Im just saying its a good idea | 21:25 |
kanzure | it's a good idea for you, but it's a huge risk to YC until you answer those questions | 21:25 |
delinquentme | also those arent prereqs for ycomb | 21:26 |
kanzure | they will do whatever they want, but they probably don't want a loser | 21:26 |
kanzure | you're not a loser but a business with no money, no traction, no growth plan, no customers, no plans for customers, etc., is not a good business to fund | 21:26 |
