kanzure"Python threads cannot be used for CPU heavy loads because they all run on a single core.[0][1]"11:57
kanzure"[0]: CPython threads are kernel threads but effectively act like user threads. All threads run within a single VM and thus restricted to a single core."11:57
kanzure"[1]: Jython does not have the same limitation."11:57
kanzurei guess that's just like jruby11:57

klafkathis brings up an interesting idea for google glass19:01
klafkaintegrate eeg into it19:01
yashgarothcan normal EEGs with 2 dozen electrodes detect 'focus'?19:02
klafkahow is focus defined?19:03
yashgarothwell, exactly19:03
klafkai like the idea of using eeg for something like google glass / eyetap19:04
klafkaof course that makesit even creepier to people19:05
yashgarothfor that matter, can PET or MRI even be like 'this guy is hella focused right now'19:05
klafka(some people)19:05
yashgarothhell you're already wearing glass, anyone who can handle that can deal with your focus-halo19:05
yashgarothI'd think that the 3 electrodes it comes with would be lucky to tell if you're alive but I'm not a neuro person19:06
klafkai don't mean eeg for focus19:06
klafkaeeg as an interface19:06
klafkayeah that was my belief too19:06
kanzureeeg is just extremely disappointing19:06
klafkakanzure: can't it do binary sort of shit?19:07
yashgarothif it prevents people from doing that chin-up motion then I'm sure they'll buy it19:07
kanzure3 electrodes have been used in other devices to track input, but again i've always been disappointed in them :(19:07
klafkaaah19:07
kanzureemotiv epoc has 5-7 sensors i think19:07
klafkakanzure idk i feel like you could at least get binary or quaternary19:08
kanzurehave you ever used it?19:08
kanzurealso why wouldn't you just use emotiv, neurosky, openeeg, or any of the others. why this kickstarter.com project?19:09
klafkano idea19:09
klafkaidk19:09
klafkacheaper19:09
kanzureactually, i'm relatively impressed with their limited scope they are marketing on that page19:09
klafkathis headband is 100 bucks19:09
kanzuremost of these fucking products are marketed as life-changing bci19:10
kanzurebut they claim only focus,  (but what they really mean is a specific type of "wave" that they track with signal processing, it's not actually "focus")19:10
kanzure"where Melon can monitor brainwave activity from the prefrontal cortex" oh boy "brainwaves" :(19:11

strangewarpheath: most people don't understand how to use IRC right, from a social perspective. the pattern of "webchat client joins a channel, asks a question, waits 40 seconds, leaves" is still going strong. also a bunch of people who used AIMchats when they were shitty teens and assume IRC is the same sort of thing.22:16
crwthink the subtext is that denizens of hackerspaces (bio or otherwise) should know enough to make good use of such a tool. you're describing "regular folks"22:19
strangewarpalso there is a bloc of people who think IRC is a primitive and inferior version of Twitter, because so many people use Twitter the same way a shitty person would use IRC22:19
kanzureno, the denizens of bio-spaces are not irc folks in general22:19
kanzurethey are very much from a different culture that hates computing22:19

heathguess i'm just frustrated tonight and need to just deal with it22:25
crwthe field of bioinformatics would seem to indicate there's at least some culture within biology that embraces such stuff.22:25
gradstudentbotIf I break my arm, do I still have to present tomorrow?22:26
yashgarotha tiny, tiny fraction22:26
* heath listens to the remastered ocarina of time ost to calm down for a bit :)22:26
strangewarpit's like those stupid advertisements you see: "10 Weird Tricks a Mom Discovered" - most people just get through life by memorizing weird tricks. So of course they're going to compartmentalize their opinions.22:29
