nmz787eleitl: Dr. Ramsey,02:08
nmz787I've recently moved to Hillsboro, OR, and even toured the FEI NanoPort02:08
nmz787Showroom last week with the local ACS chapter. I applied to the02:08
nmz787Chemistry Ph.D. program at Portland State University, and I'd like to02:08
nmz787focus on optimizing high-throughput DNA synthesis on a micro or02:08
nmz787nano-fluidic platform.02:08
nmz787I was told by a professor there, Dr. Albert S Benight, that I'd have02:08
nmz787to find a funding if I wanted to do my own project. I've searched on02:08
nmz787grants.gov and think I might be able to fit into some biodefense area,02:08
nmz787making DNA primers de-novo for portable bioagent detection or02:08
nmz787something, but I don't know where to look otherwise.02:08
nmz787Do you have any ideas?02:08
nmz787whoops02:08
nmz787wrong paste buffer02:08
eleitlnp02:08
nmz787i responded to you on diybio eleitl02:09
eleitlThanks, Nathan!02:09
eleitlnot sure the materials can take, e.g. DMSO/ethanediol/DMF are very good solvents for many polymers02:10
eleitlmicrofluidics would work well, but it has to be glass/ceramics/metal02:11
eleitlI was thinking about driving a valve with PWM02:11
eleitlmixing via duty cycle02:11
eleitlthen, pipe it through nonlinear mixer02:12
nmz787you can do glass microfluidics02:14
eleitlyes, but not with the stuff we have02:14

eleitlI hope the tumor did not destroy too much04:21
eudoxiawe'll have to wait for the report04:23
eudoxiathen she goes on the list :(04:23
eleitlI've seen her original comment on reddit04:24

eleitlsome people consider uruguay a potential location to emigrate to04:43
eudoxiabecause it will be relatively untouched when the Happening happens, or some other reason?04:44
eleitldoes it get very hot in the summer?04:45
eudoxianot australia hot04:45
eudoxiaright now its kind of chilly04:45

eleitlit has very good audio and video conferencing, especially if you have a headset05:15
eleitlare you win, os x or linux?05:15
eudoxialinux, and i have a yellowed microsoft and headphones :305:15
eleitlnot sure the linux client would do decent codecs05:16

eudoxiai have win7 on the other partition05:16
eleitlwin7 works good05:16
eleitlhttp://code.google.com/p/openqwaq/downloads/list <-- looks a bit long in the tooth05:17
eleitlnot sure the 3dicc client is fresher05:17
eleitluse the 3dicc client unless told otherwise05:17
eleitlthis technology is based on Smalltalk (Squeak)/OpenCroquet/OpenCobalt/TelePlace etc.05:18
eudoxiai heard05:18
eleitlthey're rewriting it in JavaScript, so that it will run in a browser05:18
eleitlnot sure it's a smart idea05:18
eudoxianever imagined squeak being used for something serious05:18
eudoxiawait i was thinking about something else05:19
eleitlall the Smalltalk coders are pretty much dead, it seems05:19
eleitlI'm in-world, but at work, so no video, and not a full presence there05:20
eleitlIt is nice to see that both of you reacted within 3 minutes of each other. True friends keep an eye on each other's domains :-)05:42
eleitlI think it is a minor payment bug, occasionally I do not get the bills in time in England. I have emailed FSData, my Swedish ISP.05:42

eudoxiaon the subject of chemistry05:50
eudoxiahave you seen github.com/kanzure/nanoengineer05:50
eleitlI see it now. What new is there?05:51
eudoxiakanz is trying to bring it back, an kirka/elfion managed to run it on linux05:52
eleitl64 bit?05:52
eudoxiai think so05:52
eleitlI have 12.04 at home, I should try it sometime05:52
eleitlit would be great to have a bunch of packages, or even a depository05:53
eudoxiafor molecular machine parts?05:53
eleitlno, just for nanoengineer05:53
eudoxiaoh like a deb package05:53
eleitlof course a parts depository would be great, too05:53
eleitla kind of molecular logo/macros with standard interfaces05:54
eleitlI'll go tell Perry, though he probably already knows05:55
eudoxiait might be possible to, as kirka suggested, abstract some machines into blocks with only external bondpoints05:56
eudoxiamight need a specialized simulator thoguh05:56
eleitlyou need a drag forcefield, which is basically bitblt at voxel level, with collision detection05:57
eleitlthat's the only way to drag big blocks quickly05:57
eleitldammit, I don't even have a working account for perry anymore06:00
eleitljis.mit.edu bounces06:00
eleitlwhich kind of Internet hoster do you use, eudoxia? Or just a regular ISP?06:04
eudoxiaregular06:05
eleitlcolocation in uruguay is probably a bit expensive06:06
eleitlin fact, since my hoster started charging rent for IP space, I'll be moving kit and kaboodle to a local hoster06:07
eleitlhow likely do you think is the 2030 peak? http://www.smithsonianmag.com/science-nature/Looking-Back-on-the-Limits-of-Growth.html06:19
eleitlthe curves look like it could shift more towards 2040, but that is too far to be very accurate06:20
eudoxiaundersea mining will hold back the Happening for a few years06:22
eleitlif we're energy-limited, then EROEI going to shit then new fossil is worth much old than the less06:22
eleitlwe've gone from 100:1 to 25:1 and lower.06:23

eleitlthings would look a lot prettier with 20 USD/barrel right now06:27
eleitlon the other hand, Chinese would really need axes to cut through the smog, then06:28
eudoxiahaha06:28
eudoxiait's rather sad06:28
eleitlfriends go there yearly, for visa reasons, and they have to live smack in Peking. With kids. Not fun.06:29
eudoxiamaybe it will be an incentive to speed up the thorium reactor project06:30
eleitlif it's feasible, it would take too long06:30
eleitlmin 30 years06:31
eleitlassuming it's feasible, which we don't know06:31
eleitltoo risky06:31
eleitlI do really think uruguay will be far enough from all the crap that's going to go down06:31
eleitlSouth America and Oz/Kiwiland will probably sit quite pretty06:32
eudoxia>Its ultimate target is to develop a pilot scale thorium based molten salt nuclear reactor in 20 years.06:32
eudoxiaoh come on china you can do better06:32
eleitlno, nuclear tech doesn't happen quickly06:32
eleitl20 years is already more ambitious, and I doubt they can pull it off without sacrificing something06:33
eleitlTHTR in Germany was shut down due to a series of technical problems, and they're starting with a graphite ball pile06:33
eleitlif they run into difficulties there, chances are they won't do MSR at all06:33
archelsDo you think ITER is going to work out, eleitl?06:33
eleitlplus, there's a problem with U233 inventory. You need some 2-3 tons in-core.06:34

eleitlYou might be able to kickstart a thorium fuelcycle breeder with Pu-239 of which there's a metric crapload, but I don't know.06:34
eleitllet's say we need 1000 reactors/year, that's some 3000 tons of Pu-239.06:35
eleitlthat assuming you can build 1000 ~GW reactors/year.06:35

eleitlyou'll probably have to reprocess all the spent fuel rods06:36
eudoxiai'm gonna send these logs to my friend who is a thorium friend06:37
eudoxiafreak*06:37
eleitlhttp://www.ccnr.org/plute_inventory_99.html <-- pure Pu is really rare, so you have to reprocess spent fuel06:37
eleitlthat is also a bottleneck06:38
JayDuggerGood morning, everyone.06:38
eleitlgood morning06:39
eleitllong time no talk06:39
JayDuggerMarriage and a job will do that. :)06:39
eleitlhttp://atomicinsights.com/2012/06/there-are-three-superfuels-uranium-thorium-and-plutonium.html06:39
eleitl... No, you have this backwards.  Fast-spectrum U-Pu reactors need high fissionable inventories due to the low fission cross-section at high energies; despite high breeding ratios (1.22 for PRISM) if you are only producing 0.22 additional ton of Pu out of ~7.5 tons total fuel-cycle inventory (in-core, cooling and reprocessing), your rate of increase is under 3%/yr and your doubling time is upwards of 25 years.06:40
eleitlLFTR can apparently hit breeding ratios of 1.05-1.07 at reasonable cost, and has no inventory requirement for cooling or fabrication.  More to the point, the thermal spectrum reactor has a low fissionable inventory; it can have a burnup of 80-100% per year.  Increase at 4%/year doubles in 17 years, 5.6%/year doubles in 12.5 years, 7%/year takes 10.06:40
JayDuggerAnd then I had to quickly catch up on the logs, too.06:40
eleitlThis still leaves us with the Pu/Am/Cm from a host of sources, even if a substantial amount of it is burned as the starting fuel charges for LFTRs.  Fast-spectrum reactors will get rid of it, burn our abundant supply of DU that we should not waste, and also take the waste Np-238 that LFTRs are inevitably going to have to do something with.  The two go hand in hand.06:40
eleitlNot sure what to make of it, atomicinsights is a worthless blog usually.06:41
eleitlin any case you won't get the scale up kinetics, even if it would all work, which we don't know06:41
eleitlI'm afraid we now have to use the only technology we already have, and which can be scaled up quickly06:42
eleitlarchels, I think ITER will be canceled, or delayed indefinitely06:43
eleitlvery little money left06:43
archelsI didn't know it was in such stormy weather. Hard to keep up a project with so many stakeholders over the course of a few decades, I guess.06:45
archelsNIF suffered the same fate, last I heard06:45
eudoxiafusion will always be 50 years away06:45
eleitlthey did not plan with the current economic winter, which I fear will be semi-permanent06:45
eleitlif we have zero growth or outright contraction for the next 30-40 years, most ambitious projects will be killed06:46
eleitlthis includes space06:46
eleitlnot a future I grew up expecting06:46
archelsThe NIC officially ended on September 30, 2012 without achieving ignition. According to numerous articles in the press, Congress is concerned about the project's progress and funding arguments may begin anew.[106][107][108] These reports also suggest that NIF will shift its focus away from ignition back toward materials research.06:47
eudoxiaNational Ignition Facility is quite the kickin' name06:48

JayDuggerGood and good!06:54
eleitlwe burn through 1 kEUR/month just for rent, need to cross-fund this, and time-share the place.06:54
eleitlapart from that we're doing some Zero State things, which might or might not succeed07:01

eleitlwe've had a meeting in May at my place last year, but it's mostly UK based07:03
eleitlyeah, it has to be somewhat cultish to be sticky07:03
eleitlit's basically a variation on the transhumanist memeplex packaging07:04
eleitlExI tanked, but this doesn't mean it's intrinsically nonsticky07:04
eudoxiaand something called kalkinism07:04
eleitlthe founder's nym is Amon Kalkin07:05

rigelmeh22:25
@kanzurethen you have mkvirtualenv and friends.22:26
rigeli do not need to mess with programming right now22:26
rigeli need to avoid failing my classes22:26
rigeland then i need to avoid failing my board exams22:26
rigelthough i am hearing the call of programming and technical exploration more and more, in part simply because i am not constantly being evaluated on it and told "you suck pretty bad"22:27
nmz787yeah i'm writing some openSpectrometer code now in python22:28
rigeli have been at least 1 SD, usually 1.7, sometimes as much as 3, below the mean. on every test so far for the last year and a half.22:28
yashgarothare you pounding adderall22:28
rigeli wish i had access to adderall22:28
@kanzureyou're in med school.. it would be hard to *not* run into adderall22:29
yashgarothhow do you survive in med school without addies22:29
nmz787yashgaroth: looks like by being below the mean22:29
yashgarothask literally any of your classmates, or bluff a doctor22:29
nmz787NPR was talking about Oprah's lance armstrong interview22:30
nmz787and how he doped in every tour de france22:30
nmz787and basically, yeah it's not a level playing field anymore for non-doped22:30
nmz787if doping is taking place22:30
nmz787which it obv is22:30
@kanzurewhen i was first getting interested in medicine, i thought this guy was the coolest dude ever for doing this:22:30
@kanzurehttp://www.pathguy.com/meltdown.txt22:30
@kanzurehttp://www.pathguy.com/boildown.txt22:31
@kanzurenmz787: lance should use his enormous fortune to convince people that doping isn't evil22:31
@kanzurenmz787: also they should keep the standings for the competitors because they were all on drugs anyway, so it's not like anything would have been different.22:32
nmz787i dont know any more than i've said22:32
rigeli have sort of suggested to my pcp that maybe i could use some adderall22:37
rigelbut they deflected22:37
rigeland honestly, i dont know that it would help22:37
@kanzurewhen you try to get adderall, never mention it by name22:38
rigeli get so fucking angry at how worthless this kind of teaching is22:38
rigelif i were hopped up on amphetamines i might stab someone22:38
@kanzurethat's not how amphetamines work22:38
rigeloh, trust me i know how this shit works22:38
rigel"i cant focus"22:38
rigel"i am so distractable"22:38
@kanzure"my job is suffering"22:38
rigeli know how amphetamines work22:40
rigeli know that i turn into a gigantic asshole once the plasma levels drop below a particular point22:40
@kanzurei wish there was more research into how amphetamines actually work on a circuit-wide level22:40
yashgarothwell at least try modafinil or something; I don't want to mention nootropics or else an hour-long discussion of stackz will appear22:40
rigeland i know that i have anger control issues22:40
@kanzure"it modifies dopamine levels!" is such utter bullshit22:40
@kanzurehttp://diyhpl.us/wiki/amphetamine22:41
rigeli messed with adrafinil, piracetam, hydergine, etc during undergrad22:41
rigel10 years ago22:41
rigelit would be hard to say that any of them did much22:41
rigeli hear modafinil is supposed to be good, but its still hideously expensive innit22:42
yashgarothoh yes it is, it's only for when I feel too guilty about being lazy on weekends22:42
rigelbah, antiaging-systems no longer carries modafinil22:43

yashgarothwell if stims don't seem to work for you, it's worth a shot to try cramming on opiates22:44
rigelstill pretty fucking expensive22:45
rigelbut it used to be like 2-3x what this site sells it for22:45
rigelmaybe a scrip will be cheaper22:45
yashgarothsure but once you're an MD you'll be making $texas22:45
rigelright, with $400k in loans to pay back22:45
yashgarothsure, just do plastic surgery for a year22:46
rigel"just do plastic surgery" he/she says22:46
yashgarothhe, and yes I know22:46
@kanzureindeed, those "stem cell face lifts" are apparently hot.. :/22:46
rigelbecause you certainly dont need to be certified, and do a residency in it, in order to do plastic surgery22:46
@kanzurei guarantee you that nobody did a residency in stem cell face lifting22:46
yashgarothI severely doubt they even did med school for that matter22:47
@kanzurehi dr. nick22:47
yashgarothok well how about becoming a mob doctor? that's a thing22:47
rigeli dont think thats particularly well paid22:47
yashgarothall the cocaine you want22:48
rigeli think thats something you do because you owe the shark about 80 large22:48
nmz787kanzure: hell everybody22:49
nmz787holle*22:49
nmz787hello*22:49
yashgarothhi*22:49

yashgarothpremium quality indian generic foil sheets22:50
browniesyou ordered from there?22:50
yashgarothway back when, yeah22:50
browniescustoms was cool with it?22:50
yashgarothheld up in customs for 10 days or something, but I guess so22:50
yashgarothI think nowadays they're flagging it though, so good luck22:50
browniesi have no desire to engage in anything nearly that shady22:51
browniesi have just seen them hawking their wares on reddit, so i was curious22:51
nmz787how way is way back?22:51
yashgarothalmost a year ago I think22:52
rigeloy22:53
nmz787whats the armo* version?22:53
rigelsomeone i knew in undergrad used to get a whole lot of valium and codein from an outfit in spain called "libertarian solutions"22:53
yashgarothhaha22:53
browniesnmz787: regular mo is a racemic mixture; armo is the purified22:53
rigelagain, 10 years ago, statute of limitations, etc22:53
@kanzurerigel: that's an amazing outfit name22:54
yashgaroththere is always silkroad too22:54
nmz787ahh22:54
browniesobviously that is the simplified explanation and i am not your doctor/lawyer/dentist/etc22:54
@kanzure"Mobular Solutions".. send cell phones through customs for mob bosses.22:54
rigelit was in keeping with their predilection for purchasing little quantities of every alphabet soup psychedelic/enpathogen to come down the pike22:54
brownieswikipedia has some nice explanations on this all ... though i wouldn't mind seeing some more studies on the psychopharmacology of such things22:54
rigel2ct7, 4-AcO-DiPT, MBDB, etc22:54
nmz787yeah i would like to see some neural reprogramming studies undertaken with psychedelics/empathogens in rats or mice22:58
@kanzurehuh? there are tons of studies with psychadelics+mice..22:58
nmz787i guess there are the psilocin experiments in humans happening now, NYU I think22:58
rigeli signed up for the hopkins studies22:58
rigelthey were trying to sign people up for that stuff for smoking cessation22:59
rigelit was crazy22:59
nmz787there was a conference last summer on the subject near philadelphia22:59
rigeli just didnt have enough spare time to go in for the sessions and debriefing etc22:59
rigelit would have been hella cool22:59
rigelbut just too much time investment22:59
nmz787i hear tijuana has ibogaine clinics23:00
rigelbecause it was always on weekdays23:00
browniesrigel: i wish they would publish their exact experimental protocol for those studies23:00
augur_there are tones of studies with psychedelics and people23:01
augur_oh neural reprogramming23:01
augur_depends on what you mean23:02
browniesreally? other than the Hopkins ones, i'm not aware of anything interesting/recent23:02
augur_if you mean some NLP hogwash, hah.23:02
nmz787augur_: yeah pretty broad term23:02
browniesi don't know what "neural reprogramming" is... i'd just be interested to see more study done on it.23:02
rigelif a site is advertising on reddit then it's probably going to be throwing money down the toilet23:04
rigelthe fucking president gets on reddit!23:04
