fennit seems to bounce around a lot more in that movie than the current version10:42
chris_99tis 403 forbidden fenn10:43
kirkaBouncing is transitional effect: simulation starts with worm slightly above ground plane10:43

chris_99what interpreter are you using for that kirka10:45
kirkaYou could make sea starts or soft legged animals in this sim: just write subrotines that spawn points and connect them with springs10:45
kanzurehuh, i didn't expect you to use mplayer to make a gif. i thought you'd go for convert.10:45
kirkachris_99 Steel Bank Common Lisp. That's a fast compiler. Compared to python common lisp is more expressive and tens of times faster. Ideal language for exploratory programming.10:46
chris_99nice :)10:46
fennhas there been any work done on "compiling to GPU"? for lack of a better phrase10:47

kirkaeudoxia Yes, that's a good library for drawing lines, points and stuff10:51
eudoxiaoh kirka's here that explains it10:51

kirkakanzure scihub is a proxy for downloading papers. I depend on it for punching paywalls. It'll be bad if something goes wrong with it.10:53
kanzuredo you know who made it?10:53
kanzurehttp://sci-hub.copiny.com/10:53
kirkaLooks like libgen-related guys. I should say large "Thank you!" to them10:54
kanzuredo they have backups or is it only a proxy?10:54
kanzureyeah, all of my queries are redirected to kremlin.ru.. do you have a recommended vps provider in russia?10:54
kirkaOften paper is first downloaded to cache at libgen10:54

kanzureklafka: yes i've used redis10:57
kanzureeudoxia: https://github.com/kanzure/paperbot/issues/1210:58
klafkaso i'm developing on a server that is running redis on it and the redis db is like 40gb10:58
klafkaand vim keeps crashing whenever redis is on10:58
-!- sivoais [~zaki@unaffiliated/sivoais] has joined ##hplusroadmap10:58
klafkahere is my suspicion, when it creates an rdb file it's fucking up io10:58
klafkaon the computer10:58
kanzurekirka: can you check sci-hub.org and download a paper from JSTOR or RSC or AIP, and then show me the paper? i am curious to see what the watermarks say.10:59
kirkakanzure Ok10:59
klafkai'm changing to append only file to see if that works10:59
kanzurekirka: thanks10:59
klafkabut is what i'm saying like crazy or does it make any sense?10:59
klafkai don't really understand systems programming10:59
kanzureklafka: strace vim, then tell me how it crashes10:59
klafkawhat's strace ?11:00
kanzureklafka: also you can look at "top" to do a quick sanity check of what the different processes are doing11:00
kanzureklafka: and also look at "dmesg | less" (in particular, the bottom of this buffer) to see if your server is doing stupid things11:00
klafkawell i mean it is typically happening when redis is writing11:00
kanzureklafka: strace shows you system calls being made by the process (in this case, vim)11:00
klafkaaah11:00
klafkait's weird vim just like locks up11:00
klafkait never crashes11:00
kanzurecertain system calls are going to be constrained during large writes, i think11:00
klafkai have to kill the screen it is in11:00
klafkai see11:00
kirkabtw they have a twitter https://twitter.com/Sci_Hub11:01
kanzureklafka: this is certainly something worth tweaking but i don't have good suggestions for you.11:01
kirkakanzure http://sci-hub.org/pdfcache/aea5ca568acd5fd36948214424c20b54.pdf11:01
kanzurejrayhawk: maybe you have some ideas for klafka's problem?11:01
klafkadamn it just froze again11:01
klafkaredis does not appear to be running -11:02
kanzureklafka: i dunno how big you can run redis, at some point you might want to consider multiple servers and sharding.11:02
klafkaer saving11:02
klafkai mean it should just fit in memory11:02
kanzurekirka: "This content downloaded from 137.99.31.134 on Tue, 21 May 2013 14:00:58 PM"11:02
klafkai think it's really poor architecture if the db cant' be as big as the ram on my computer11:02
klafkaand i have 244gb ram11:02
kirkaI have worries about watermarking too. I thought about converting papers to djvu, so there cannot be any watermark or DRM.11:02
kanzurekirka: it seems to be uconn.edu11:03
kanzurekirka: if you know the owners of this site, you should tell them to use https://github.com/kanzure/pdfparanoia to remove this information11:03
kanzurefucking amateurs11:03
kirkakanzure Ok. if I'll find them I'll talk to them11:03
kirkaThat's serious, I'd like for scihub to live on11:04
kanzurekirka: could you try one more? RSC or AIP?11:04
eudoxiakirka even uses the same license I do (MIT)11:04
eudoxiait's almost surreal11:04
kanzureeudoxia: MIT is not exactly an unknown license...11:04
eudoxiaoh i know but this is just another intersection in the list of things we have in common11:04
kirkaeudoxia We have quite similar views on things, heh11:05
eudoxiamaybe one of us is an uploaded copy of the other one O:11:05

DonnchaCIt looks like they pay people to use their university accounts as proxies?11:19
DonnchaCor to get VPN/proxy access to those college networks11:19
DonnchaCI wonder how they stay online. I suppose just host outside of the US/EU?11:20
kanzurewell, they are making multiple mistakes at the moment.. i hope if they do pay, they are using bitcoins.11:21
kanzurethey aren't stripping watermarks. they are using .ru, which could be problematic if they become blocked..11:21

kirkakanzure In russia copyright still isn't a large issue, but it's strengthening. This probably explains their insecurity.11:27

kirkakanzure Oh, I forgot to delete first line of english text11:54
eudoxiayou might want to translate output.pdf and input.pdf11:54
kanzureis input/output something that russians know in english?11:55
kanzurei have no idea what russians know about english11:55
kirkaeudoxia Don't think that's necessary. Actually knowledge of english language is a must for russian sciencists11:55
kirkakanzure It's either you know english or you cannot read new books and scientific papers, so sciencists know it11:56
kanzureok11:57
kanzuregood point11:57
eudoxiai think it's pretty much the same everywhere11:57
fennjapan is going to make passing TOEFL a requirement for university entrance12:01
fennit seems wrong to me somehow, since some people are just not good at learning foreign languages, for the same mysterious reason they're good at whatever it is they do12:02
kanzurekirka: thank you for the translation, i've committed to the repository with the text.12:03
ParahSailinpassing toefl is not hard for japanese or chinese12:10
ParahSailinyou barely have to know any english12:10
kanzurei fear that it will be too easy for publishers to identify the sources of the downloads from sci-hub.org, even if watermarks are removed12:17
kanzurebecause a publisher could just type in a paper, then wait for a university to download the paper in the next few seconds12:17
kanzuresci-hub.org could choose to make requests from 100 different universities at the same time, to obfuscate which one the paper is traveling through12:18
fennum. that just means they get 100x more info on how compromised their network is12:18
kanzurebut, that will just tell them exactly who they have to go yell at..12:18
kanzureyes that's true, i think downloading ahead of time is the only way12:18
kanzureor if you are willing to infuriate your users you could have random delays (minutes, hours, days) before it is downloaded12:19
fennif you assume there's some kind of download analytics/tracking system in place, wouldnt it be obvious that these particular 452 accounts are downloading at maximum rate?12:19
fennif there's not any logging/tracking system, they wouldnt know who downloaded the paper in the first place12:20
kanzurepublishers absolutely do have http server logs12:20
kanzurei have seen these logs12:20
kirkakanzure Looks like s c i h u b creator is from Kazakhstan, it's relatively copyright-safe country12:20
fenni dont think the delay idea works because 90% of papers are only read by 5 people, so that's like two downloads a year max12:20
kanzurepfft yeah ok, and i'm from calxistan12:20
fennhey metoo12:21
kanzurefenn: well, downloading immediately is probably the worst idea out of all of them12:21

kanzuremaybe you should use only one exit node per publisher12:21
kanzureand once that node is burned, you move on to the next12:21
fenndoes it matter if it takes 5 seconds or 5 minutes or 5 days?12:21
kanzureyeah, because if it takes 5 days maybe the publisher is stupid and will forget12:22
kanzure"any moment now" while watching their logs piped through less12:22
fennyeah, i dont think the people doing enforcement have shell access12:22
kanzurethat should be treated as an unknown12:23
fenni'm willing to bet these are lawyer type people, the kind that wake up at 6 am and put on perfume and makeup and watch CNN12:23

kanzurehm maybe that's not the right scene. but anyway i'm sure there's a birdman scene that would adequately fit this situation.12:29
jrayhawkklafka: vim likes to call sync() on .viminfo and swap files a lot; it's probable that redis is (unsafely) dirtying multiple gigs of VFS writeback cache on the same filesystem12:33
jrayhawkyou can keep track of that with the 'dirty' and 'writeback' sections of /proc/meminfo12:33
jrayhawke.g. when those reach zero, vim should become usable again12:33
kanzurewasn't there a way to stop vim from doing those things12:34
jrayhawkprobably, but the real problem here is leaving massive amounts of cache dirty in order to hide the performance costs of nonvolatile memory12:35
jrayhawkor at least, if you're going to do that, you should be doing it on an isolated filesystem12:35
jrayhawkand on data that you don't really care about12:35
kanzurewhat about running vim exclusively on /dev/shm in this case?12:36
jrayhawkthat was non-sequiter; please rephrase12:36
kanzureis /dev/shm sufficiently isolated to run vim in klafka's situation?12:36
jrayhawk/dev/shm is not relevant12:37
kanzurei thought /dev/shm was an in-RAM filesystem that you can poke and prod?12:37
DonnchaCThere does not seem to be an easy way to get around the problem of publishers identifying the sources of papers12:39
jrayhawktechnically true, but that one has specific semantics in the filesystem base standard12:39
DonnchaCObviously if watermarks etc. are removed it's not as immedietly obvious the source.12:39
DonnchaCI suppose you would just need a relatively large number of SOCK's proxies, some time delay and watermark removal12:40
DonnchaCIf watermarks are removed its not conclusive that the PDF published is the one download X minutes/hours earlier12:41
DonnchaCTherefore they can't immediatly prove that library is breaking their T&C's of access?12:41
jrayhawklike, you could use that for .viminfo and swap files in the same sense that you could put every file on your filesystem in /12:41
jrayhawktechnically possible, and simultaneously disgusting12:42
kanzureDonnchaC: they would have to be extremely patient to gather enough evidence against a particular university, i think12:45
kanzureDonnchaC: of course, if the traffic is not randomly distributed, then it will be more obvious to publishers12:45

nmz787so what should i teach this programming student I'm tutoring today?12:57
nmz787first lesson12:57
nmz787i don't want to ramble too much, I'd like to do some excercise12:57
eudoxiahttp://www.cs.cmu.edu/~dst/LispBook/book.pdf12:57
eudoxiathe first chapters that introduce functions as nodes in a diagram12:57
nmz787I've done some excercise work in the many programming classes i've taken, but my projects are all I remember12:58
nmz787cool, looking now12:58
nmz787i tried explaining the difference between interpreted and compiled languages by saying you don't exactly know what the computer is doing for something like divide by 2, since it could be the actual divide op, or a bit shit12:59
nmz787shift12:59
kanzurei don't think lisp is a good introduction to programming12:59
-!- nsh [~nsh@obquire.infologie.co] has left ##hplusroadmap ["Leaving"]12:59
nmz787but I don't know how to divide/mult in binary12:59
nmz787so I am not good at explaining that way12:59
kanzurei would say get a user in front of an interpreter as fast as possible (and not lisp)12:59
nmz787yeah he's got python installed12:59
kanzurejenna likes codeskulptor.org12:59
eudoxiathe first chapters are language agnostic12:59
DonnchaCI suppose, they do distribute the traffic pretty randomly. If you google translate their donations page it looks like they pay people for the uni socks proxies.13:02
kanzureare they using tor between the universities and their servers?13:03
DonnchaCI don't think so, they actually redirect you to publishers site some times acting as a http proxy.13:04
kanzureoh geeze that's not good13:05
DonnchaCSorry, connection to bad to check it out at the moment. But I remember requesting an article and being show the published site say I was "Access from xxx university"13:05
kanzurethat's bad because they can put cookies on your computer13:05
kanzureand fingerprint your user-agent strings and shit13:05
DonnchaCHave they been up for long?13:05
kanzuresci-hub? no idea.13:05
DonnchaCTo what end?13:05
kanzurefingerprinting? any small amount of information leaking out can be used against you.13:06
DonnchaCThey could still only set cookies for their own domains. Setting up a large copyright infringing site from multiple publishers to try trace individual users downloading a few papers doesn't sound like a great idea13:07
DonnchaCif they wanted to track people13:07
kanzurecookies could only be accessed through the proxy of course, because of how cross-domain security works, but that's still bad.13:07
juri_nmz787: as a teacher, i try to immediately teach my student enough of a language to accomplish something they want, but is dirt simple. usually shell scripting, or C. by keeping them scratching their own itches, i kept more students.13:07
DonnchaCHmm, the domain was registered 16 April 201113:08
DonnchaCI'm not sure if the current site has been there since. Can you check archive.org?13:08
DonnchaCI literally have a few kilobyte/s connection at the moment13:09
nmz787juri_: so projects that they're interested in rather than lame rote excercises?13:09
juri_nmz: yepyep.13:09
juri_thats hard to do, as a lot of people cannot answe rthe question 'what do you want?'.13:09
juri_but, if you can find out what the student wants to do and craft the exercises around that, its a great platform to jump from.13:10
juri_i find that works in about 2 out of every 3 students. have the student it doesn't work on help the other students, and what they want will work its way out after a few weeks.13:11

kanzureDonnchaC: eh, it's not that hard to get people to sign up to forums. people have been indoctrinated to vbulletin, phpbb, ikonboard, ubb, invisionboard, fluxbb, smf, etc. for over a decade now. so they get really interested in new forums (or something).13:24
kanzureDonnchaC: plus, one of the things you do as a forum administrator is you spoof the user registration counter because you want people to think you have activity13:24
DonnchaCFrom their accounting page they say they give $0-40 per university proxies13:24
kanzure$40/month?13:24
DonnchaCyeah maybe, its on their accounting page13:25
kanzurewhen i was doing the math for a similar operation, i figured i could get $500-$2k/mo per proxy if there was 1000-5000 people assigned per proxy paying that student13:25
kanzureand it could be pitched as a way to make up for student loan debt13:25
DonnchaCInteresting13:25
DonnchaCCertainly an incentive for broke students to lend their access13:26
kanzureunfortunately the per-proxy coverage isn't high enough13:26

DonnchaCThey good have got credtials for VPN or SSH tunnel into university and retrieve from there.13:29
DonnchaCI see they are having problems making sure users don't abuse the proxies13:30
kanzurethe way i was figuring i would design such a system was with zotero translation-server, and just proxy those requests through some transport layer like https or socks or ssh, possibly while using tor, and only allow those types of requests, instead of other proxy-related traffic.13:31
DonnchaCThey seem to have a lot of activity for a RU only site.13:31
kanzurewhat are you comparing against? i see lots of forums that claim to be this large. again, some of these numbers are probably faked, but i wouldn't be surprised if they are real either..13:31
kanzureconsider the forum-torrent-tracker hybrids in russia.. those are many orders of magnitude larger.13:32
DonnchaCSeems like there is huge demand for a sustainable system for open access13:32
kanzurethis isn't open access13:32
DonnchaCradical open access13:32
kanzureyes, it's true that people want to read science and use science.13:33
DonnchaCOkay looks like they are using a paid "anonymous" proxy to access the library proxies13:34
DonnchaCkanzure, you met the site owner in 2010?13:36
kanzurewhen? what?13:40
kanzuresci-hub? i have never heard of sci-hub before today... i think.13:40
heathjrayhawk: heh, yeah the first was incorrect, but i resubmitted a second time immediately afterward but haven't received a confirmation13:42
heathi can try with a different username if that's the problem now13:42
DonnchaChttp://sci-hub.copiny.com/idea/details/id/6303413:42
DonnchaCGoogle translate - "Thank you. However, do not think it's paranoia makes sense, but think worth it :)13:43
DonnchaCAnd this guy - kanzure - I happened to catch a meeting at a conference in 2010) Good news"13:43
kanzurehmmmm13:43
kanzurei don't understand why they are okay with watermarks. that's really surprising.13:43
kanzurealso, since i keep track of everyone i have ever talked with, that guy just revealed himself to me, i think13:43
kanzureespecially since the list of people i met at conferences in 2010 is pretty short (<500)13:44
heathnmz787: [22:29:45] <heath> nmz787: so what's the status on your project?13:44
heath[22:30:05] <heath> i just finished watching https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b6zpEyDvdRA13:44

kirka"Thanks, I don;t think that this paranoia is reasonabke, but I'll think about it"13:48
kirka*reasonable13:48
nmz787heath: ahh you're referring to DNA synth?13:48
heathyeah13:48
nmz787heath: working on photolithography equipment this week13:48
heathhow so?13:48
DonnchaCOkay, that makes more sense. I guess he is not too worried about burning university proxies?13:48
heathwhich approach, rather13:49
nmz787heath: once that's working i'll be testing simple microstructures, then simple microchannels with macro fluidic ports attached13:49
nmz787heath: retrofitting a bluray burner13:49
kanzureit seems to be Alexander Kondrat except i don't have this name in my meetlog.. i have Константин Николаевич (who runs The Bank of Personal Immortality) but that's not Kondrat.. hm.13:50
kanzureKondrat might be a fake name, of course13:51
kanzureDonnchaC: i'm really surprised that they are okay with watermarks. wow.13:51
kirkakanzure I'm too13:52
nmz787backwards it's Tardnok13:53
kirkakanzure Either they know something I don't know, or they underestimate 1B$ corp's lawyers13:53
kanzurekirka: yeah, elsevier is a fucking weapons dealer..13:53
kanzuremilitary13:53
heathnmz787: was afk discussing some other project. that's cool, keep this channel updated, i'm definitely interested13:53
DonnchaCHopefully they can keep going, it probably helps somewhat that they are in .RU13:55
DonnchaCI'm not sure if they are paying for uni proxys, or just scraping them at the moment13:55
DonnchaCas in finding proxy logins on the net somewhere13:56
jrayhawkheath: Nah, it doesn't actually do anything stateful until the confirmation link is clicked.13:56
kanzurethose accounts get locked out quickly (the ones with passwords posted publicly)13:56
jrayhawkasics-blog-post... -02.13:56
DonnchaCAlso thanks kirka for the translation13:57
kirkaIt's easy, don't mind13:57
DonnchaCGot to go13:57
kirkabye13:57
jrayhawkheath: fwiw you can also ssh to newuser@gnusha.org to avoid that confirmation step13:58
DonnchaCTalk to you guys later, hopefully sci-hub can stay successful, and "Alexander" doesn't have too much trouble13:58
kanzure"Александра"13:58
DonnchaCDid google translate that wrong? Sorry, can't really translate names13:58
kanzureit's translated correctly13:59

brownieswhat do you wise old biologists think of Soylent?18:52
yashgarothI just read the guy's post where he forgot sulfur18:53
esclepiusrussian speakers here?18:54
yashgarothalso I really doubt that buying purified single chemicals will ever be cheaper than food-based food18:54
browniesyeah i saw that post. that is worrying.18:54
browniesyashgaroth: i don't really care about the cost tbh. i'm interested for the sheer convenience.18:55
yashgaroththen just buy a bunch of muscle milk powder and some sugars and olive oil and drink that shit with a multivitamin18:55
browniesreally? can i just use Muscle Milk as a meal replacement?18:55
yashgarothyeah sure whatever18:56
browniesyou do sound like a very concerned nutritionist18:56
yashgarothor buy one of the hundred other liquid meal replacement drinks18:56
browniesbut can man survive on meal replacements alone?18:56
yashgarothby the definition of 'replacement', sure why not18:56
* brownies is going to seek a second opinion18:57
yashgarothwithout a full list of soylent's ingredients I can't really make any definite claims on it18:57
kanzureesclepius: yes18:58
brownieseh? don't they post a full list of their ingredients?18:59
kanzurebrownies: i would bug jrayhawk about nutrition things instead of yashgaroth18:59
brownieskanzure: yeah good point18:59
kanzureyashgaroth just lives on scraps found in his lab18:59
kanzurejrayhawk might actually cook18:59
yashgaroththere were free bagels last week, I snagged so many18:59
browniesbut jrayhawk will probably tell me to hunt my own wooly mammoth and feast on it over the flames of an organic fire18:59
brownieshonestly keto would be great if it weren't so inconvenient18:59
fennthe meal replacement drinks tend not to provide 100% rda of everything19:00
fenni think there are some "medical grade" meal replacement thingies that do, but ensure etc don't provide all electrolytes or vitamins19:02
yashgarothbrownies: I haven't found their list of ingredients yet, aside from snippets of text on his tupperware in videos; I think they're releasing it at some point in the indeterminate future19:02
browniesyeah. i would like to see the full ingredient list for sure.19:03
ParahSail1ni thought he gave one19:03

-!- klafka [~klafka@c-24-6-18-31.hsd1.ca.comcast.net] has joined ##hplusroadmap19:04
yashgarothhe has a rather vague list19:05
ParahSail1nwhat i find inconvenient is being ravenously hungry every four hours and needing to run out somewhere or die19:05
brownies"My mixture now has 409g of carbohydrates, 65g of fat, and 102g of protein."19:05
browniespretty crazy macro distribution19:05
fennthe vagueness concerns me. also the fact that the entire collective wisdom of the internet has basically nothing useful to contribute19:05
browniesParahSail1n: eh it's just a lot of work to always be cooking cows and chickens19:05
fennhow about pea protein19:07
ParahSail1npretty easy to buy cooked meat19:07

kanzurebrownies pays for all of his meals to be delivered to him by way of uber19:10
browniesi do eat out pretty often.19:10
yashgarothalso the only ones using soylent right now are people who are super jazzed about how it's the future of food blahblah and aren't a controlled study19:11
browniesyeah that is what i find the most worrying.19:11
yashgaroth'oh I totally have so much energy now' can be an entirely mental phenomenon, and often is19:12
browniesit's all a bunch of amateur kids who are treating it with about the same seriousness as a weekend programming hack19:12
browniesyashgaroth: yeah controlled would be good. i guess double-blind is hard, but controlled would be a good step.19:12
yashgarothat least just an unbiased group, rather than people who are willing to fork over money and buy in completely19:13
browniesyeah exactly. it seems too soon to go around hawking it as a product that will save the world.19:14
jrayhawkprovided there's no insulin resistance, that macro ratio is not particularly scary19:20
jrayhawkbearing in mind that fat and protein have twice the caloric concentration of carbohydrate19:21
jrayhawkvarious pacific islanders such as the tokelau and the kitavans did just fine on that ratio19:21

jrayhawkSoylent is one hell of a lot better than what most people eat; it's non-immunogenic and generally a lot more nutrient-complete than your average poptart. The two main criticisms I have for it are poor micronutrient form and overabsorbability.19:23
fennthe oligosaccharides?19:25
fennre: overabsorbability19:25
jrayhawkAmong other nutrients that would otherwise arrive in bulk to feed the gut flora.19:26
jrayhawkIt's important to remember that when you're eating, you're eating for one trillion19:27
jrayhawkEating a bunch of simple sugars, simple peptides, and simple fats, all perfectly dissolved/emulsified in solution means you're probably going to starve most of your gut bacteria19:28
jrayhawkthose suckers are responsible for a whole lot of hormonal and immunological modulation19:29
jrayhawkand maintaining protective biofilms19:29
-!- aristarchus [~aristarch@unaffiliated/aristarchus] has joined ##hplusroadmap19:41
jrayhawkand w.r.t. micronutrients, he seems rather cavalier about form; mentions e.g. "vitamin k" without saying if it's the cheap lousy one (K1) or the expensive useful one (MK-4) or something inbetween; same thing with "vitamin D" (d2 vs d3), and with B12 (cyano- vs methyl-), and EFAs (LA and ALA vs AA and DHA) and folate (folic acid vs any tetrahydrofolate) and minerals (phytate-bound or chelated) etc. etc. etc.19:44
jrayhawkand some crap like calcium is disastrous to bolus-dose19:44
kanzureis there any legitimate reason he would be lax on specifying that? it seems like if he was aware of the importance then he would be more explicit about his choices.19:44
jrayhawkhe seemed to care more about economy than efficacy19:45
jrayhawkhe actually seemed downright excited about the prospect of becoming a walking billboard for novel forms of vitamin deficiency.19:45
jrayhawkif he actually cared about nutrient form, most soylent would become much less economical than real food19:46
jrayhawkand yes, he definitely forgot the essential wooly mammoth supplementation19:48
fennsupplements are very nutrient-dense (obviously) so you can make a lot of "food" with a small number of pills19:48
fennso even though the supplements are expensive it doesn't mean that it will cost more than food19:49
jrayhawkI dunno, I can buy one hell of a lot of fish for the cost of a single bottle of fermented cod liver oil or algal DHA19:50
jrayhawkand the fish comes packaged with antioxidants and relatively inert and opaque tissues19:51
fennhm. i just bought 360 count 1.2gram fish oil capsules at the grocery store for $1519:51
kanzurehttp://biohackyourself.com/quantified-self-europe-2013/ (a report, not an announcement)19:51
fennlet's also assume pea protein costs $20/kg19:52
jrayhawkisolated, esterified, heat treated19:52
fennwhat sort of fish19:53
jrayhawknot so good for efficacy19:53
fennnot esterified, it's just fish oil19:53
fenni know a dead fish contains more than just protein and fish oil, but lets do the math19:54
jrayhawkhttp://www.ascentahealth.com/health-science/science-articles/fish-oil-triglycerides-vs-ethyl-esters-as-nature-intended19:54
fennyes i know about that issue and it's irrelevant, these aren't esterified19:55
jrayhawkhow can you tell?19:55
fennbecause it says "fish oil"19:55
fennnot "fish oil concentrate" or "ultra mega fish kablammo"19:55
jrayhawk"fish oil" is not regulated in that way19:56
fennthey have no incentive to purify a product and then dilute it19:57
jrayhawkexcept to advertise higher DHA and EPA doseages19:58
jrayhawkwait, dilute it?19:58
jrayhawkwhere does the dilution occur?19:59
jrayhawkor, rather, what would imply dilution?19:59
fennthe label says "each 1.2 gram capsule contains: 360mg omega-3 fatty acids  DHA *** EPA ***" (they didnt bother to measure them individually)19:59
fennthe esterified products are nearly 100% omega-319:59
fennbut fish oil is 50-80% saturated fat20:00
jrayhawkalright, i will take back "esterified"20:01
fennso anyway, the cheapest fish i can contemplate eating regularly is canned mackerel, at $1.68 per 300g drained mass20:01
-!- soylentbomb [~k@unaffiliated/soylentbomb] has joined ##hplusroadmap20:02
fennit's usually more like $3 but whatever20:02
jrayhawkthat is a terrifyingly low price, but i suppose mackerel is kinda gross anyway20:02
fennaccording to the USDA, 300g drained canned mackerel contains 70g protein, 4.4g omega-3 fat20:04
jrayhawkwhat sort of multiplier we should put on oxidation potential20:04
fennunsure, the canned mackerel smells much fishier than the capsules20:04
jrayhawkhaha, yeah, i always have wondered about that20:05
jrayhawkif mackerel is just an especially stressed class of fish20:05
fenni assumed it was from the heat of the canning process20:05
jrayhawkeven fresh mackerel tastes kinda spoiled20:06
jrayhawkcanned fish i am just not capable of eating20:06
fennbtw mackerel is especially high in oils, which is the whole point of this exercise20:06
jrayhawkyeah, it's also amazingly cheap as far as the fatty fish go20:06
jrayhawkusually fatty fish are prized20:06
ParahSail1nwell, chemically defined diets are the way people discover new vital nutrients20:08
ParahSail1nso theres a chance useful data will come out of this soylent craze20:08
fennso to make the same quantity of industrial fish concentrate we'd need $0.14 worth of fish oil and $1.40 worth of pea protein20:08
fennmy pea protein price was somewhat arbitrary, i should have checked20:09
ParahSail1nwhy pea as opposed to soy?20:09
fennbecause soy lied to me and broke my heart20:09
jrayhawkhaha20:10
fenneh pea protein is $18/kg so it's about right20:10
fennso in summary, canned fish is an affordable source of protein, but an expensive source of DHA and EPA20:11
jrayhawkhttp://www.westonaprice.org/vitamins-and-minerals/beyond-good-and-evil and of course protein profiles matter20:13
fennof course20:13
fennthere's also rice protein20:13
fennthe gSH bonds in whey/eggs is another interesting thing to think about20:15
-!- superkuh [~superkuh@unaffiliated/superkuh] has quit [Quit: the neuronal action potential is an electrical manipulation of reversible abrupt phase changes in the lipid bilayer]20:17
jrayhawkoh yeah, have you seen any studies demonstrating efficacy of direct GSH supplementation vs. precursors?20:19
jrayhawkin humans, that is20:19
jrayhawknot rodents20:19
fennrealistically speaking though, there's no way i could eat 70g of pea protein in a single sitting, whereas i could certainly eat 70g of whey, and 300g of mackerel is no problem20:19
jrayhawki dunno, if you put it in a drink with 60% glucose...20:19
fennis the glucose supposed to make me feel less full?20:20
fennthe problem with pea protein is it's "heavy"20:20
jrayhawkappropriate ratios of fat/salt/sugar do alter ghrelin signaling, yeah.20:20
ParahSail1nisnt bean protein, like, pure trypsin inhibitor? do they denature pea protein in some way?20:21
jrayhawkIIRC pea is fairly innocuous as legumes go20:21
fennso i'd like to point out that sugar is 50% fructose20:21
jrayhawkYeah, fructose has some other downstream effects, but I mean just the taste alone.20:21
jrayhawkThose food-palatability-and-reward researchers Taubes hates so much occasionally do interesting things!20:22
fennum, so adding glucose to protein reduces satiety?20:22

ParahSail1nmanually brute forcing the proxies on the sci-hub is mildly inconvenient20:42
ParahSail1nweird, either sci-hub uploaded it here automatically or they just found the paper mirrored http://pdf.highwire.org/stamped/jexbot/44/4/701.full.pdf20:44
fennsardine oil is 30% monounsaturated, 30% saturated, 30% polyunsaturated (6% mystery)20:46
ParahSail1ncholesterol20:47
fennnot enough to account for the 300mg discrepancy20:47
kanzureParahSail1n: highwire.org is a publisher. they offer some paid fee structure for journals. sort of a "self-publish" platform of one sort or another.20:53
kanzureParahSail1n: if 91.202.165.73:8080 doesn't work then let me know and i can dig up something better20:55
ParahSail1nthat proxy worked, thanks20:55

fenndid google groups always have an exclamation point in the url?21:08
browniesisn't it one of those #! URLs?21:08
kanzurefenn: no, this is google groups since 2011 or 201221:10
kanzurefenn: this version of google groups blows..21:10
fennhey, some people like having only 25% of their screen showing content21:11
kanzurebut in particular, i was expressing infuriation about phantomjs21:11
kanzurethe new google groups url structure is really quite evil21:11
browniesfenn: i've always felt that google needed more persistent top navbars... just a big fat stack of 'em21:11
kanzurebrownies: perhaps they should enlist bonzai buddy and get over with it.21:11
fennwhat we really need is a purple talking google car to drive you around the information superhighway21:12
kanzurethey really botched the google groups product up21:16
kanzurei wonder what they are going to do with their usenet archives. are they just going to delete everything?21:16
fennthey'll put them with the digitized book archives21:16
fennhow big is it anyway?21:17
kanzurewell henry spencer had basically everything back to 1979 (for some reason)21:18
kanzureand google just acquired the archives from him21:18
kanzurehe is very responsive by email... Henry Spencer <henry@zoo.utoronto.ca>21:19
fenni've seen that name before21:19
brownieswhen you say "acquired," what do you mean exactly?21:19
kanzurei mean they asked him and he was like "here you go"21:19
browniesoh ok21:19
browniesso he still has them21:19
kanzureyou've seen his name because he emails with john carmack and friends for rocket reasons21:20
brownies...presumably.21:20
browniesi've never seen his name =/21:20
fennmust be from the space usenet archives21:20
fennhttp://yarchive.net/space/21:20
kanzureor http://www.blastzone.com/arocket21:20
kanzurehttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_Spencer "Henry Spencer is a Canadian computer programmer and space enthusiast. He wrote "regex", a widely-used software library for regular expressions, and co-wrote C News, a Usenet server program. He also wrote The Ten Commandments for C Programmers.[1] He is coauthor, with David Lawrence, of the book Managing Usenet.[2] While working at the University of Toronto he ran the first active Usenet site outside ...21:22
kanzure... the U.S., starting in 1981. His records from that period were eventually acquired by Google to provide an archive of Usenet in the 1980s."21:22
kanzure"The small size of Usenet in its youthful days, and Spencer's early involvement, made him a well-recognised participant; this is commemorated in Vernor Vinge's 1992 novel A Fire Upon the Deep. "21:22
kanzurewell fuck that why the fuck aren't i commemorated in a fire upon the deep21:22
kanzure"oh hush bryan you haven't even read it"21:23
browniesbetter email Vernor Vinge21:23
brownies"hey bro what the fuck"21:23
kanzure"he novel featured an interstellar communications medium remarkably similar to Usenet, down to the author including spurious message headers; one of the characters who appeared solely through postings to this was modeled on Spencer (and, slightly obliquely, named for him)."21:23
kanzure"He is also credited with the claim that "Those who do not understand Unix are condemned to reinvent it, poorly."[3]"21:23
kanzure"Between 1981 and 1991, while running the zoology department's computer system at the University of Toronto, Spencer copied more than 2 million Usenet messages onto magnetic tapes. The 141 tapes wound up at the University of Western Ontario, where Google's Michael Schmidt tracked them down and, with the help of David Wiseman and others,[4] got them transferred onto disks and into Google's archives.[5]"21:24
kanzure"He also wrote 'aaa' - the Amazing Awk Assembler which is one of the longest and most complex programs ever written in the awk programming language." ok so he is clinically crazy21:24
kanzure"He is a highly regarded space enthusiast, and is a familiar and respected presence on several space forums on Usenet and the Internet. From 1983 to 2007 Spencer posted over 34,000 messages to the sci.space.* newsgroups. His knowledge of space history and technology is such that the "I Corrected Henry Spencer" virtual T-shirt award was created as a reward for anyone who can catch him in an error of fact."21:24

kanzurefenn: yeah a little, something about blighter.21:25
brownieshow much data is 141 tapes?21:26
kanzureoh this is paul fernhout21:26
browniesdid google transfer them onto disks or did he?21:26
kanzurepointrel should have been more immediately obvious21:26
* brownies grumbles at the vagueness21:26
kanzurei like how it says "with the help of David Wiseman and others"21:27
kanzurebecause transfering data from tape is a huge project21:27
kanzureinvolving multiple Official Google Engineers21:27
kanzurewhy would they transfer them to disks anyway.. what year was this, 1995?21:28
kanzureParahSail1n: https://github.com/ricardobeat/filr21:29
fennstoring crap in a metadata field of an image seems like a brutal hack21:31
kanzurewell the metadata is supposed to stay put, right?21:32
fenni mean, it's easier to check for than trying to find noise in images21:32
kanzureit would be handy if you could force people to couple metadata with data by making the two parts useless without each other21:32
fennflickr could arbitrarily set a limit on image metadata size, or just fuck with you somehow21:33
kanzureoh it's not storing in pixel data?21:33
kanzureguess i should look next time21:33
fennit's interesting how the images dont look totally random21:34
fennuh, talking about http://www.nihilogic.dk/labs/canvascompress/21:34

kanzure"Your kanzure Yahoo! ID uses the email address kanzure@gmail.com. That email address is already associated with the kanzure account on Flickr."21:36
kanzure"If you are trying to create a new Flickr account for your kanzure Yahoo! ID, you need to either: Remove the kanzure@gmail.com email address from your kanzure Flickr account. (You'll need to sign in to Flickr with your cm007x2 Yahoo! ID to do this.) Or,Change the primary email address for your kanzure Yahoo! ID. (Your kanzure Yahoo! preferences.)"21:36

kanzurei sort of doubt the same api works21:40
heathsend Erik Winfree et. al. a message, i'm sure they'd to hear from you: 131.215.135.10721:40
heathproblems? try this one: 131.215.135.1321:41
kanzure"Access Denied. Your IP Address cannot access this device."21:41
heathgrabbed from http://dna.caltech.edu/wikis/dnawiki/index.php/Printer_Info21:42
kanzurewhy are you obsessing over a researcher i was infringing on 5 years ago?21:43
fenni think the idea is to send them DNA sequences via fax machine, right heath?21:43
heath:)21:44
fennyou can encode arbitrary computations as DNA tiles. the rest is left up to the student as an exercise21:44
* heath reads http://heybryan.org/winfree.html 21:44

kanzureyou might be interested in the resulting paper:21:45

kanzure(naturally i was not included as a coauthor but whatever, they will not survive the resulting metalocalypse)21:46
kanzurewtf i knew vhdl93 in 2008?21:48
heathkanzure: i don't understand how you were infringing on the Winfree?21:48
kanzurethe origins of that paper began with copying some of his work, sorta21:49
kanzure"replicating"21:49
heaths/\?/\. #grr at typing when Webkit is compiling21:49
kanzure"Recently, engineered nucleic acid logic switches based on hybridization and conformational changes have been successfully demonstrated in vivo (15,16)."21:50
kanzureanyway, the problem with most of thsi is that it's a fun novelty but there aren't that many problems worth trying with rna or dna computing21:51
kanzure*this21:51
kanzurenot even a SAT solver is worth it really21:51
heathpoop21:51
fennit is worth thinking about, there's avogadro's number computational units in a bucket of DNA21:51
fennthe problem is the atrocious crosstalk and low signal to noise ratio21:52
fennwe dont know how to design problems to work with that system21:52
fenni dont like the whole transcriptional logic idea though, it's trying to draw an analogy where there really isnt one21:53
fenna loop of dna being extended is not equivalent to a circuit with a voltage21:54
kanzurei'm not exactly willing to reload this stuff into working memory at the moment21:55
kanzurei am experiencing enough existential anxiety with javascript on my own thank you very much21:55
fennwell you dont have to think about it right now21:56
fenntime to prune some neurons... /me sleeps22:00
kanzuregha "onShouldInterruptJs"22:00

jrayhawkfenn: what was making you sad about that WAPF thing22:02
kanzure13:59 < Speedstick> also does kanzure = Ariya?22:04
kanzure14:04 < Speedstick> so kansure is the creator of phantomjs?22:04
kanzure14:04 < Speedstick> kanzure rather22:04
kanzurewhy would i ever do such a thing22:04
browniesdo you see what happens when you write this much JS22:06
browniessoon you and the interpreter will become one22:07
browniesor maybe you'll tell me one of these days "hey meteor is actually a really good idea"22:07
jrayhawkdoes that mean kanzure will be stymied by http redirects22:07
browniesohai jrayhawk22:07
browniesi think he is *already* stymied by http redirects ;)22:08
kanzurei have turned to expressing my rage in other ways http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dbo6Xvh0kZ4&list=PLgO7JBj821uGNUiLT2hIuKHLywYiQdgzF22:08
kanzurebtw here's the fucking http 302 redirect workaround https://gist.github.com/amenzhinsky/524591522:10
nmz787i had a workaround for 302s when i was using plupload22:12
nmz787where did google cache links go?22:13
kanzuregoogle no longer believes in showing you cache links22:13
kanzuregoogle scholar still shows cache links and you can type in other urls to try to get a cache for a non-academic page, but it doesn't always work22:14
jrayhawkwait what22:14
kanzureand you end up on googlewebcache.com or something22:14
jrayhawkcache:farts.com still works fine22:14
kanzurenever works for me22:14
kanzureremember that google runs experiments on its users and some populations have features enabled while others don't22:15
nmz787cache: doesn't help22:16
jrayhawkalso sometimes caches get invalidated while indexes and content previews for those indexes stay around; not sure why22:16
jrayhawkbut that's been true for most of google's history22:16
kanzurecaches have always been dodgey for me22:16
kanzurei see people posting coral cache links, and those tend to always work22:16
kanzuresometimes people post a google cache link and those work, but i never have any idea how to predict whether or not google will allow you to see a cached version..22:17
kanzurebrownies: http://www.ryanbridges.org/2013/05/21/putting-the-flash-back-in-phantomjs/22:17
ParahSail1nif you see the down arrow in search, there's usually a cache22:18
kanzurethe down arrow! why didn't i think of that.22:18
kanzurewhat happened to just having a green 'Cached' link below the result? :(22:18
nmz787i'm looking for this22:18

kanzurei have no idea how substack is able to operate22:26
kanzurein a past life he was writing haskell so it is possible that he is brain damaged22:26
