| joshcryer | One act worthy of a death sentence is pursuing holistic medicine for a very curable illness that, without scientific treatment, will result in said death sentence. | 00:01 |
|---|---|---|
| erasmus | fenn the world isn't flat. | 00:01 |
| strangewarp | I read this entire conversation and I wanna barf btw | 00:02 |
| * strangewarp goes back to hardware hacking | 00:02 | |
| @kanzure | 00:02 < user___> is there a way to use ultrasound to apply net forces to fluids in a sealed chamber | 00:10 |
| @kanzure | 00:03 < kanzure_> yes... consider ultrasound surgery, transcranial ultrasound stimulation, ultrasound imaging of fetuses, etc. | 00:10 |
| @kanzure | 00:07 < user___> no i don't mean mean squared strain or something, i mean dc forces per unit volume | 00:10 |
| @fenn | no, ultrasound is inherently AC | 00:11 |
| @fenn | you'd need something like a valvular conduit (flow rectifier) | 00:12 |
| @fenn | a check valve in plumbing terms | 00:12 |
| @fenn | i guess something similar to optical tweezers (the lemon pip effect) might work, but that's solids, not fluids | 00:13 |
| @kanzure | 00:08 < user___> i thought of it when i heard of doppler measurement of jet engine fuel line flow rates | 00:13 |
| @fenn | i guess the ultrasound reflects off flow instabilities in the fluid in that case | 00:15 |
| @kanzure | couldn't you add some responsive material that gets filtered out before it hits spark plugs or w/e? | 00:16 |
| @fenn | yes, solids | 00:16 |
| @fenn | there is a haptic interface that uses standing ultrasound waves, so it's definitely possible with solids | 00:18 |
| @fenn | but you would have to track and target large numbers of these dust specks | 00:18 |
| @fenn | anyway what's the point? microfluidics? | 00:19 |
| @kanzure | i told user__ that i don't want to play channel bridge | 00:19 |
| @fenn | meh | 00:19 |
| @kanzure | jrayhawk: can't you just type /join on his client for me? | 00:20 |
| joshcryer | I thought you'd initiated a new bridge feature on your nickname and felt it was inelegant, heh. | 00:27 |

| @kanzure | ah much better | 00:46 |
| @kanzure | jrayhawk: any ideas on fixing the redirect? http://diyhpl.us/wiki/declaration | 01:03 |
| @kanzure | that redirect has always annoyed me | 01:03 |
| @kanzure | it's not a directory so i don't see why it wants to add a slash | 01:03 |

| @fenn | do conversations with steve always converge on hyperbolic discounting or is it just me? | 04:11 |
| jrayhawk | direction.mdwn gets rendered as direction/index.html; otherwise there'd be no way to hint an appropriate mimetype to the httpd | 04:14 |
| jrayhawk | though apache supports client mime negotiation, so i guess that would still technically work for the common case | 04:15 |
| jrayhawk | most httpds suck, though | 04:15 |
| @fenn | another potential contender for the nootropic effects of butter is serine, a NMDA receptor agonist | 04:15 |
| @fenn | co-agonist, whatever | 04:16 |
| @fenn | heh there's a group promoting this molecule http://www.serine.org/backgrounddr.htm | 04:18 |
| @fenn | in butter it would be found as phosphatidylserine | 04:21 |
| @fenn | hmm i can't seem to find any data on how much is actually there per gram of butter | 04:30 |
| juri_ | you know, i've thrown away two GC/MS systems in my life. questions like that make me regret. | 04:31 |
| @fenn | yeah i would really like to see an open source mass spec | 04:32 |
| @fenn | HPLC or even TLC would answer a lot of these questions though | 04:33 |
| @fenn | they require purified standards for calibration though, making it less convenient | 04:33 |

| @fenn | wow 480ug/g phosphatidylserine in atlantic mackerel | 04:43 |
| @fenn | that's almost as high as brain | 04:44 |
| @fenn | i wonder why they dont do studies on "mackerel extract" | 04:44 |
| @fenn | aka mackerel-derived phosphatidyl serine.. at least it would stop all these people from trying to find cow brain extract | 04:45 |

| jrayhawk | what's wrong with cow brain extract | 04:53 |
| @fenn | it's contaminated with BSE | 04:53 |
| @fenn | supposedly | 04:53 |
| jrayhawk | BSE is a CAFO malady | 04:54 |
| jrayhawk | nobody should be eating CAFO beef in the first place | 04:54 |
| @fenn | well anyway it's illegal to sell cow brain extract, and nobody is providing mackerel extract (fish oil aside) | 05:01 |
| @fenn | it doesn't seem so hard to just synthesize the fucker from serine and DHA | 05:01 |

| @kanzure | delinquentme: probably the same way you convert any other cell into stem cells, http://diyhpl.us/~bryan/papers2/stem-cells/ | 11:07 |
| @kanzure | fommil: to my knowledge nobody has ported emokit to scala. | 11:08 |
| @kanzure | lucas_: stay more than a few minutes dude. | 11:08 |
| yashgaroth | I think agevivo meant extracting the adult stem cells from fat tissue | 11:08 |
| @kanzure | oh. | 11:10 |
| yashgaroth | fat tissue is rich in mesenchymals, and you won't miss it | 11:10 |
| yashgaroth | then again it might be easier for him to induce them instead, since separating, indentifying and expanding them is hella difficult | 11:11 |
| yashgaroth | also did you guys see the story about the woman who had some cosmetic stem cell surgery and got bones growing in her eyes? because HEH | 11:12 |
| yashgaroth | yeah I told lucas_ I'd be here, but I'm sure as fuck not waking up early this week | 11:13 |
| @kanzure | nope i did not see that story | 11:17 |
| yashgaroth | https://www.scientificamerican.com/article.cfm?id=stem-cell-cosmetics is a decent coverage of it, I suppose | 11:18 |
| yashgaroth | I'm mostly interested because myostatin inhibition could conceivably be considered "cosmetic" and then I can do whatever the fuck I want, apparently :V | 11:19 |

| nmz787 | so i'm interested in SLS or layer-by-layer lithography type methods for physical construction | 21:32 |
| nmz787 | making a gantry for nano or micro scale stuff is pretty hard, but maybe a stepper for a DLP chip exposure system would work... the small features are defined by the DLP chip, and using XY and maybe rotation, you could match up the corners if you wanted to | 21:34 |
| @kanzure | what did you think about that dlp-converted-reprap-thing? | 21:35 |
| @kanzure | lemon | 21:36 |
| @kanzure | lemonsomething | 21:36 |
| superkuh | curry | 21:36 |
| yashgaroth | party | 21:36 |
| @kanzure | oops. | 21:36 |
| @kanzure | no superkuh has it right.. lemoncurry. | 21:36 |
| nmz787 | yeah i remember seeing that, i'm not sure they moved the DLP projection area | 21:37 |
| nmz787 | or if tey just did layers | 21:37 |
| @kanzure | lemonparty is for old guys | 21:37 |
| nmz787 | i.e. moving the Z | 21:37 |
| yashgaroth | couldn't resist, sorry | 21:37 |
| @kanzure | yashgaroth: next you'll be quoting me tubgirl.. you're an old geezer. | 21:37 |
| yashgaroth | hey now | 21:38 |
| nmz787 | i've also been thinking about fresnel lenses, but being used as reflectors | 21:38 |
| nmz787 | sputtering metal is relatively easy, making reaplicas of fresnel lenses would be easy | 21:38 |
| nmz787 | and reflectors don't suffer from chromatic aberration | 21:39 |
| nmz787 | they sufffer from other aberration but I think that's somewhat easier to correct for in software than chromatic smudging is | 21:39 |
| nmz787 | so then you could really have a whole replicable optical system for something like a reflecting microscope or spectrometer | 21:40 |
| superkuh | Reflectors might not but won't fresnel reflectors will have slightly different focal lengths for different frequencies? | 21:41 |
| nmz787 | i'm not sure if reflection follows the same wavelength dependence as refraction | 21:42 |
| nmz787 | or if they're the same, but with much differnt ratios of relfection to transmission | 21:43 |
| superkuh | Yes. I have understood how I was confused now. | 21:46 |

| @fenn | nmz787: reflection is wavelength independent but such a small spacing between fresnel rings is bound to give diffraction artifacts, which is wavelength dependent | 23:45 |
| @fenn | looks like i was already into nanotech in 1991 http://fennetic.net/irc/redesign_the_human_body.jpg | 23:46 |
| nmz787 | fenn: hmm good point, but would the diffraction crap be filterable easily? | 23:47 |
| @fenn | well if you're only using one wavelength it shouldnt matter as much | 23:48 |
| nmz787 | it would probably go all over the place at the edge, huh, spewing light out in all directions? | 23:48 |
| nmz787 | well i was thinking of reflective optics for cheap microscopes or spectrometers, or at least easily replicable | 23:49 |
| @fenn | i dont get how you're planning on making a smooth slope with SLS anyway | 23:49 |
| nmz787 | so multiple wavelength correction was what i was thinking | 23:49 |
| @fenn | and what does "replicable" mean | 23:49 |
| nmz787 | ahh | 23:49 |
| @fenn | like with vinyl records? | 23:49 |
| nmz787 | good point actually | 23:49 |
| @fenn | or compact discs | 23:49 |
| nmz787 | well i know some stuff is made using diffraction patterns | 23:49 |
| nmz787 | so the resist is brigther where it needs to be thinner, erc | 23:50 |
| nmz787 | etc | 23:50 |
| @fenn | oh so this is a completely analog process? | 23:50 |
| nmz787 | i'm not sure :/ | 23:50 |
| @fenn | do you know how holographic diffraction gratings are made? | 23:50 |
| nmz787 | rather i'm not sure on the holographic/diffraction pattern stuff | 23:51 |
| nmz787 | no | 23:51 |
| @fenn | well me neither | 23:51 |
| @fenn | der. well this is something i've never heard of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ridged_mirror | 23:53 |
| nmz787 | fenn check this out http://pubs.rsc.org/en/content/articlelanding/2011/lc/c1lc20411d | 23:56 |
| @fenn | "The multiple Fresnel diffraction at nearly placed periodical ridges (ridged mirror) causes the specular reflection" | 23:56 |
| @fenn | so perhaps taking diffraction to the limit will simply equate to a flat mirror | 23:56 |
| @fenn | what are the lego dots for? | 23:58 |
