skorketmorning all08:05
kanzurehi08:06
kirkahi08:08
skorketMy friend and I altered grbl to spit back position information, I made a continuity tester that communicates over usb08:08
skorketnow I'm in the process of making a program to use the two to do automatic height mapping08:08
skorketnext stop is gcode generation based on interpolated height08:09
kirkaWow, Rethink robotics finally released their product08:13
kirkahttp://www.hizook.com/blog/2012/09/18/baxter-robot-rethink-robotics-finally-unveiled08:13
chris_99skorket, you're using AVR aren't you08:15
skorketavr for the continuity testing (with V-USB) and an arduino clone running grbl08:16
skorketso, yes08:16
chris_99ah, i'm still having issues with my PIC USB, might end up switching heh08:16
skorketthe USB was a bitch to get working and I think it's only really for low speed applications.  My bet is that theres better support for USB in PIC then there is in the AVR08:18
skorketand of course you can always go the dedicated chip route08:18
kirka22k$ is very cheap for two hands with body and controller08:19
skorketwanted to brag to nmz787.  Still not around...sheesh08:21

delinquentmewhole bunch of workers saving files onto a central server09:44
delinquentmebasically littered about the server ... these files have fully defined file path in the database .. and need to be served up through the rails application09:45
kanzuredon't do that.09:48
kanzurewhy did you take this job?09:48
kanzureintroduce them to paperclip or carrierwave at least. you can still keep the files on the local file system, but at least keep a backup somewhere.09:49
delinquentmethey're using paperclip09:50
delinquentmebut if files are constantly being worked on as well as being huge09:50
delinquentmeit might be best to not continually copy them ... so thats kinda where we're at09:50

nmz787what it us10:34
nmz787up*10:34
chris_99i've almost got USB to work on a PIC now :)10:34
nmz787cool, how?10:35
chris_99turns out i should have connected Vusb3.3 to 3.3V with a bypass cap10:35
chris_99apparently you're not supposed to use the PIC debugger when doing USB debugging, because it interfers with timings10:37
chris_99so may have to bust out a  logic sniffer10:37
chris_99to see what's going on10:37
nmz787i mean, bit banging USB protocol, with a serial to usb converter, etc10:37
chris_99oh i'm using the PIC USB stack, it's got proper hardware for it10:37
chris_99like a USB PLL etc.10:37

kanzureamerican chemical society v. leadscope http://www.supremecourt.ohio.gov/ROD/docs/pdf/0/2012/2012-Ohio-4193.pdf13:57

delinquentmetax evasion?14:05
kanzurehuh they didn't deny that they took pathfinder source code, that's fascinating. they could have just rewritten it though.14:05
kanzureoh i see. someone reviewed the source code from both products and did not find similarity.14:06
kanzure"ACS did not provide sufficient evidence to the jury supporting its claim for misappropriation or that it had a patent on PathFinder. ACS's only secret was the source code, and expert testimony revealed that the source codes for PathFinder and Leadscope were not the same."14:07
kanzure"The lack of sufficient evidence of misappropriation is astonishing, especially considering the length of this trial and the extensive nature of the discovery spanning nearly six years."14:07

kanzurewhy is nanoengineer a user on richardiv?17:02
kanzure*nanoengineeruser17:02
jrayhawkI'm chrooted.17:02
kanzurehm, well, shouldn't /etc/sudoers be owned by root?17:02
jrayhawkYes. That is a thing that should be.17:02
kanzurefeel free to fix my mistakes and replace the file on the server :(17:03
kanzurei think i might have left some X stuff in /tmp too17:03
jrayhawkOkay. Is it okay if I get rid of the preceding root in root/nanoengineer-chroot/ too17:03
kanzurehrm?17:03
kanzurethe .tar.gz should have just the chroot with no higher directory17:04
jrayhawkjrayhawk@richardiv:~$ tar -tzvvf nanoengineer-chroot.tar.gz | head -n 117:04

kanzureunless i fucked that one up too17:04
kanzureblah17:04
kanzureok then17:04
jrayhawkah, so the acceleration thing is libgl1-mesa-swx11 being installed in place of libgl1-mesa-dri libgl1-mesa-glx17:10
jrayhawkwhich might be a sound default17:10
jrayhawkis it okay if I add myself to git-nanoengineer on diyhpl.us and make some patches to the readme17:11
kanzureyes go ahead17:11
kanzurethere's also some things in packaging/ that might amuse you17:13
jrayhawkHmm. I can't test that fix myself since the userspace side of nouveau didn't exist back then.17:13
jrayhawkoh well, at least i made some improvements17:13
kanzureyou can run nanoengineer from the chroot on gnusha and then do x forwarding17:15
jrayhawkYeah, I wanted to test direct rendering.17:15
alusionEvening gentlemen17:15

jrayhawkhaha17:20
alusionWhat are some good blogs or resources to follow? I want to reserve my spot in the future, on the forefront of technology and innovation. There is a tidal wave coming and I want to be surfing it.17:21
kanzure1) learn everything about software17:21
kanzure2) learn everything about molecular biology17:21
kanzure3) learn everything about neurophysiology17:21
kanzurethat will set you up pretty well.17:22
jrayhawk...to be scavanged for atoms.17:22
alusionI don't have to learn everything, if I have a team I can leverage my time and resources accordingly.17:22
kanzurealusion: your team sucks17:22
alusionSo 3d printing is going to be soon diving into the molecular level.17:22
alusionHey you gotta start somewhere amirite?17:22
kanzurereprap is not going to be doing molecular printing. you are a fucking liar.17:22
Mariu:o17:23
eudoxia>molecular 3d printing17:23
kanzurei'm just not amused by that though17:23
eudoxiaAh yes I too remember when I believed that17:23
kanzurethe recent 3d printing hype has had nothing to do with molecular manufacturing17:23
eudoxiait was kinda silly in hingsight17:23

kanzurestop reading that book17:23

alusionI am open to suggestions, kanzure17:24
kanzureif you look at the physics of thermal goo squirting 3d printers, you will see that it's no where near the requirements for diamondoid mechanosynthesis17:24
kanzure*nowhere17:24
kanzurefurthermore, if you actually take the time to read the diamondoid mechanosynthesis roadmaps, you'll see that we're not near to it at all17:25

kanzurebut if you are a 3d printing expert, i should note that i'm coughing up $20k this year if you meet some requirements17:26
eudoxiaI always found it hilarious how SIAI got millions of dollars in donations and has not produced a single tangible thing while Merkle and Freitas are probably starving to death under abridge holding up a sign that says "Will do VASP simulations for food"17:26
kanzurehttp://gadaprize.org/17:26
kanzureeudoxia: siai has published a few papers, and fed jrayhawk's brother17:26
jrayhawkYeah, the lack of publicly visible output was one of the reasons for the management change.17:26
kanzureoops it looks like humanityplus broke that domain. now only http://www.gadaprize.org/ works as a redirect? wtf.17:26

eudoxiakanzure: i'd be more satisfied if they were doing things like, working on multiple paths towards AGI and having computer security and cryptography experts guys work on different strategies for AI boxing17:27
kanzurealusion: you're about six late to the party17:27
kanzure*six years17:27
kanzureeudoxia: siai doesn't actually want to make AGI17:27

skorketwhat's going to happen come Dec. 31st?18:41
@kanzurehonestly it's in humanityplus' hands at the moment. probably nothing because they forgot about it.18:42
@kanzurethere are a bunch of teams that were working on projects.18:42
gnushananoengineer.git: 1dd9b96 chroot: adding direct rendering instructions18:44
skorketI heard about some makerbot using two or maybe three materials, but none that are printing electronic circuits.  And none that print a complete replica...18:44
skorketyeah, we're actually pretty close, but it's just not there yet18:47
eudoxiahumanityplus seems pretty shitty18:50
eudoxiatheir whole rebranding thing didn't really help them at all18:50
@kanzuretheir rebranding killed them18:53
skorketwhen and how did they rebrand?18:54
@kanzurethey used to be "world transhumanist association"18:54
@kanzurethen they changed their name to humanityplus18:54
@kanzurehaah i hope they take up legal action against googleplus. that would be hilarious to watch.18:55
eudoxianow h+ expands to humanityplus instead of transhumanism in many people's heads18:56
eudoxiasigh18:56
@kanzureh+ was a lousy abbreviation anyway18:56
skorketit doesn't get the same idea across?18:56
@kanzurebut for the record i'd like to point out i named hplusroadmap prior to humanityplus' bullshit18:57

-!- Wanderer is now known as OldCoder18:59
skorketI guess I don't understand why that is a legitimate grievance18:59
@kanzurebecause humanityplus is a terrible organization19:00
@kanzuresee, if you are a transhumanist, and you sit down and think "geeze let's organize transhumanists and go do projects"... humanityplus is not what you come up with at all19:00
@kanzureskorket: you alone have achieved more on your cnc project in the last few months than humanityplus has achieved in 10 years.19:00
eudoxiadoes humanityplus still do those h+ summits?19:01
skorketMy only point was that your concern of them being a shitty organization is a legitimate grievance.  Them confusing the name isn't19:01
eudoxiaI liked your (kanzure) presentation more than anything I saw on that sing summit thing19:01

@kanzureeudoxia: you? me? jrayhawk?19:21
eudoxiapotential contributors19:21
LukasI suppose I am guilty of association.  Again, I didn't say any of those things.  I was asked about Vita-Moore, and I said I was indifferent.  That was pretty much it19:22
@kanzureLukas: :(19:22
@kanzurejrayhawk: are you certain you want your git author string to be "jrayhawk+gnusha@omgwallhack.org <jrayhawk+gnusha@omgwallhack.org>" for nanoengineer?19:23
Lukaswhat do you want me to say?  You can ask Tim yourself, he is the combative one, and he will admit it openly19:23
LukasI am trying to promote our projects, anything else that is said that isn't quoted from me should not be my problem19:24
@kanzurei think we are all responsible for how we promote ourselves. that's why i got all over lepht. that's why i get all over humanityplus.19:25
@kanzurestill, how about some version control goodness for those projects..19:26
LukasI just want you to know that we are not being hostile to anyone.  If we express our opinion on Lepht, biohack.me gets pissed, someone asks us about Vita-moore, other people get upset19:27
@kanzurenobody gets upset about vita-more. but saying "biohackers like vita-more aren't doing anything" is silly because vita-more doesn't focus on those types of projects- her most recent projects have been film and a phd thesis.19:28
@kanzurelike why not mention biocurious instead or something19:28
LukasVita-moore was only mentioned in the article because the reporter asked - and we expressed apathy.  A few other people spoke to use about biocurious and genspace and I told them that their focus is different that ours19:30
jrayhawkoh, that is a mediocre author string. meh, too lazy to fix it.19:30
@kanzurei think biocurious' closest project is their 3d cell printer19:30
@kanzurejrayhawk: may i fix?19:31

nmz787hi skorket21:40
nmz787i tried looking for any public grbl commits21:40
skorkethttps://github.com/abetusk/grbl21:40
skorketnothing earth shattering, just put some code in the main interrupt that drives the stepper motors21:41
skorketevery step it issues now adds to the global position counters21:41
skorketbut it means you can have real time feedback as to where each of the motor positions are21:41
skorketas long as you haven't overrun the event buffer21:42
nmz787hmm21:42
nmz787it didnt count steps before?21:42
skorketnot exactly21:44
skorketit has what are essential key frames21:44
skorketeach key frame passes the number of steps to issue to the drivers at a lower level21:45
skorketbut once it passes it off to the subsystem, it just assumes it works and doesn't update anything else21:45
skorketnot sure if that made sense21:45
skorketfor example:  start at (0,0), go to (1, 2), go to (5, 5).  The (0,0) -> (1,2) would generate a structure to tell it to step (x,y) steps to get from (0, 0) to (1,2) but would just update to (1,2) after it passes it off to the subsystem21:46
nmz787hmm21:51
nmz787so why do you want the global counter?21:51
nmz787if you're not checking it against some encoder or current sense thing (to see if the stepper skips steps)21:51
skorketreal time (ish) feedback21:54
skorketI ask it to move to 50mm, 80mm from 0mm, 0mm, it's going to take time21:54
skorketI want to wait till it gets there to start issuing more commands21:55
nmz787hmm21:55
nmz787i will have to play with grbl as-is before I think of porting it to propeller, etc...21:55
nmz787maybe its good enough?21:56
skorketor, if you like, if you build in a feed back system you can now check it against where grbl thinks it is21:56
nmz787i have been thinking of accelleration stuff lately21:56
nmz787and i think that I should use a chirp function as the model21:56
skorketI like grbl.  So far it's been good.  But I needed the feedback21:56
nmz787since it continuously increases in frequency21:56
nmz787i also want to incorporate seemless/automatic microstepping transitioning21:57
skorketyeah, not something I'm really familiar with.  You should take a look at grbl though, I think it has a lot of that stuff in there21:57
nmz787so you start out doing say 1/16th microstepping, then when you pickup speed, change over to 1/8, 1/4, 1/2, then full stepping21:58
nmz787then the opposite on slow down21:58
skorkethmm, yeah, you have to be careful21:58
nmz787unless grbl or whatever i use can handle microstepping at full speed21:58
skorketagain, this is something that I'm not that familiar with21:58
nmz787or if I don't end up microstepping21:59
nmz787too much theoretical stuff, will need to experiment21:59
skorketYou want to do microstepping, even if you're trying to go fast, if your electronics can handle, from what I understand21:59
nmz787kanzure: http://www.reddit.com/r/AskReddit/comments/103zqo/reddit_where_do_you_live/21:59
nmz787kanzure:  large dataset of reddit user locations21:59
skorketFrom experimentation, going at full step introduces a lot of vibration into the machine21:59
nmz787well certain steppers are shitty at microstepping22:00
nmz787if they are designed for high holding torque especially22:00
nmz787because the magnetic field doesn't follow a sine wave22:00
skorketmicrostepping is not just about increased accuracy/resolution22:00
nmz787it's peaky at the teeth (where the electromagnets pull the spindle at)22:00
skorketor rather, it's about increasing resolution but not necessarily increasing accuracy22:00
skorketto me, if you wanted to really have that fine control over the microstepping, I would set up a system where you could control it programatically and keep track of where each motor is in it's cycle22:02
skorketmake sure to only 'land' on full steps where you need it, but for non critical positioning, use microstepping22:03
skorketor something like that.22:03

nmz787i was thinking that keeping track of things could be useful for bringing the cutter back to 0,0 position, but also such that the motors are on the same tooth22:04
nmz787so 0,0 is always 0 degrees, 0 degrees22:04
nmz787vs starting at 0,0 moving around and coming back to 0,0 but not having the motor be at the same degree of rotation22:05
nmz787i think it would improve reproducibility22:05
skorketwell, if things are set up properly, that should never happen22:05
nmz787but maybe not :/22:05
skorketthe only way that would happen is if you missed some steps22:05
nmz787hmm22:05
nmz787yeah i guess22:06

@kanzurenmz787: check the logs. you're missing out.22:25
@kanzurenmz787: basically we were hating on delinquentme for believing that "warp drive is now possible" because of that news article22:26
