eleitlhi guys07:43
kanzurehello07:44
eleitlhow's things?07:44
kanzurei think brainwallets are neat07:44
eleitlas long as your passphrase has enough entropy07:44
kanzureyes, that seems to be the difficult part07:45
eleitlyou can't really remember high-entropy phrases reliable, so you have to write them down07:45
eleitlat which point you can just generate it all by machine, and print it out07:45
eleitlthere's a JS page which can do it offline07:46
eleitlthen you hit print, and have it all on paper, with optical barcodes to boot07:46
kanzurewhere was that page?07:46
eleitlisn't this one available offline: http://brainwallet.org/07:47

kanzure"The Neuromorphic Computing sub-project of the HBP will design, implement and operate a Neuromorphic Computing Platform that allows neuroscientists and theoreticians to perform experiments with configurable neuromorphic computing systems. The platform will provide two systems. The first is based on physical (analogue or mixed-signal) emulations of brain models, running 10^4 times faster than real time, and ideally suited for studies of ...09:17
kanzure... synaptic plasticity, development and learning. The second system is based on numerical models running in real time on digital multicore architectures, and is suited for problems that require hard real-time performance, such as robotics. The role of the Neuroinformatics group at UNIC is to develop software that will make the neuromorphic platform accessible to researchers in neuroscience, cognitive sciences and computer science, and to ...09:17
kanzure... investigate the capabilities and performance of the neuromorphic computing systems."09:17
rkosit seems like a big challenge though09:19
kanzurewhich part?09:19
rkosbuilding a simulation model of the brain that is09:19
kanzureit's not a simulation09:19
rkosthe american version got some calculations done and what they seem to be facing is a pretty big problem imo http://www.nytimes.com/2013/02/26/science/proposed-brain-mapping-project-faces-significant-hurdles.html?pagewanted=all&_r=009:20
rkosthe complete brain generates about 300,000 petabytes of data each year.09:20
rkosThe Large Hadron Collider in Geneva generates about 10 petabytes of data annually.09:21
kanzurenone of those statements or anything in the article indicates a "big problem"09:21
rkosits more data than we have the means to deal with09:22
kanzurethat's not true09:22
ParahSai1inhttp://news.thomasnet.com/IMT/2013/09/04/selective-laser-sintering-patent-expiration-will-not-be-a-game-changer/09:23
kanzureif there is any challenge in emulating human brains it is not going to be data storage. it's more things like "getting enough people to agree to investigate a sufficient number of types of neurons with standard electrophysiology setups."09:23
kanzuremanaging exabytes of data is relatively simple in comparison09:24
kanzureor hooking up hardware for such09:24
rkosbut theres 2 programs with millions of funding trying to do this now09:24
kanzurethat nytimes article seems to conflate the connectome project with the human brain project, which isn't a good thing to do09:25
rkosim not saying that it cant be of any use im just saying that the whole thing itself is just more than we can currently deal with09:25

rkosHGP had great results and produced good stuff but we didnt figure out the genome through HGP either09:26
kanzurewhat does "figure out the genome through HGP" mean09:26
rkosdeliver on all the promises that were made at the time09:27
rkoscuring all diseases and whatnot...09:27
kanzuretheir promises were something like "we promise to sequence 10,000 genes" or something09:27
kanzureno i think that was the journalism09:27
kanzurethis is why you shouldn't read the news09:27
rkosthats not really true09:27
rkosyou shouldnt think of the scientists as somekind of angels09:27
kanzureif you go look at the grant proposals i doubt they claimed that all forms of cancer will be cured just because you can sequence a handful of genes09:27
kanzurei never said anything about angels, fuck you09:28
-!- kuldeepdhaka [~kuldeepdh@117.254.216.9] has joined ##hplusroadmap09:28
rkoswell arent you an angry one09:28
kanzureit is infuriating to talk with you and now you're making up statements about angels09:28
kanzureyes of course i'm angry09:28
kanzureall of your messages are full of shit09:28
-!- Guest77439 [~not@100.43.114.90] has quit [Ping timeout: 272 seconds]09:28
rkoswriting grant proposals was just part of getting their funding09:28
rkosespecially those on the corporate sector did make lots of claims about this stuff09:28
rkosi recommend checking out biocapital09:29
kanzureiirc those were not officially part of the human genome project, yo09:29
fredoxthats what marketers do09:29
rkoshttp://www.dukeupress.edu/Biocapital/09:29
kanzurethe human genome project was officially just the academic labs09:29
rkoswell not officially09:29
kanzurenot venter's company etc.09:29
kanzurewell, sorry dude. words have meaning in this channel.09:29
rkosbut they worked together helping each other make money unofficially09:29
rkosyour meaning that is?09:30
kanzuresigh09:30
rkoswords only have given meaning, or constructed meaning09:30
kanzureat least i don't conflate "figuring out the genome" with "marketing promises", wtf man09:31
rkostrying to just shut out part of what people are trying to say with them leaves you with a smaller world09:31
kanzureso, if you're right and i'm wrong, it would mean that i can't deduce what people are intending to say from their words, but if we go the other way around, it just means you're an idiot, which is a much smaller price that i can afford to pay09:31
rkosyou probably thought i was making an attack against you or the brain project that you supported, i was just making a general claim of tiredness about these promises09:32
kanzurethis is nothing about attacks09:32
rkosyou cant deduce what people are intending to say with their wods for certain09:33
rkosthats an illusion09:33
kanzureyou are conflating crap you read in the news with the project09:33
rkosyou can just keep thinking of me as an idiot on the outskirts of your shrinking world of words09:33
-!- sandeepkr [~sandeep@117.254.216.9] has joined ##hplusroadmap09:33
rkosyou think the project doesnt benefit from the media?09:33
kanzurewhy should i care if it benefits or not?09:33
rkosthis is public funding we're talking about09:33
kanzurewhy should i care if it's public or private funding ?09:34
kanzurewhether it's benefiting from media or private/public funding has little barring on whether or not you're interpreting the promises correctly09:34
rkosbecause those public extravagant claims build public support which builds public funding09:35
kanzurecan you explain how that links back to your original complaint? i'm really not seeing it:09:35
kanzure09:20 < rkos> the american version got some calculations done and what they seem to be facing is a pretty big problem imo09:35
rkosthat the general tech salvation spirit goes overboard because of the public extravaganza built in newspapers and fictional media and i try to offer some counter for it for the sake of diversity09:36
kanzurewhat tech salvation spirit! is this about angels again?09:36
rkosyou're purposefully being obtuse arent you?09:37
kanzureno09:37
rkoswell can i ask you why are you coming at me with your stuff now?09:37
kanzureat this point it seems like you're jumping around in the conversation a lot and it's really hard to follow09:37
rkosi just pasted a link which claimed it has problems and then you go on an attack on me, why do you care?09:38
rkoswell whats the conversation all about kanzure09:38
kanzurei assumed you were using the link as evidence and i was trying to explain why your reasoning was wrong09:38
rkosevidence for what?09:38
kanzurethe position you held09:39
rkosit is evidence for itself which is the only claim i made, that it is09:39
kanzurewhat?09:39
rkosthe position of the newspaper article?09:39
kanzurefor the position you mentioned prior to you dropping the link09:39
rkosthe position was linked to the article09:40
rkoswhat would you classify as a big problem then?09:40
kanzurei already gave my opinion on that:09:41
kanzure09:23 < kanzure> if there is any challenge in emulating human brains it is not going to be data storage. it's more things like "getting enough people to agree to investigate a sufficient number of types of neurons with standard electrophysiology setups."09:41
kanzure09:24 < kanzure> managing exabytes of data is relatively simple in comparison09:41
kanzure09:24 < kanzure> or hooking up hardware for such09:41
rkoswell but as i said there are 2 well funded projects for it so thats not really the problem09:41
rkosand is it really simple to process exabytes of data into something usable?09:42
rkosi assume of the 10 petabytes LHC goes through in a year much of it isnt really integrated into anything09:42
eleitlgood morning, JayDugger.09:43
kanzurewhy do you make that assumption09:43
eleitlI missed some nice conversation, apparently.09:43
kanzureeleitl: hardly09:43
rkoswhy would i not make that assumption? do they really make something with all of the data they get from their experiments?09:43
eleitlbeats fighting with an NFS mount on VMWare09:44
eleitlwhat's the beef with brain simulation?09:44
kanzureeleitl: hey, that's almost exactly what's on my todo list today..09:44
kanzureeleitl: dunno, he's incomprehensible and full of it09:44
eleitlOmniOS+napp-it=NFS export09:45
rkosyou just dont want to talk to me then?09:45
eleitlrkos, what is the issue with the amount of data?09:45
kanzurerkos: i am finding it extremely hard to communicate with you, sorry09:45
rkoshow do you process it all?09:45
eleitlthat's live data, so it's just sitting there, simmering along09:45
rkosbut you have to integrate into somekind of model09:45
eleitlyou process it by build a large honking n-torus of many millions to billions of nodes09:46
ParahSai1inis this guy delinquentme?09:46
eleitlthe model is granted, I thought you were talking about the hardware/managment aspect09:46
eleitlof course we don't have good models yet09:46
kanzureParahSai1in: no, he is definitely not delinquentme. he seems to be capable of talking about a *similar* topic for more than 5 minutes. so he can't be the same person.09:46
eleitlhave you looked at the Kwabena/Spaun collaboration?09:47
kanzureeleitl: we don't have good models, but it's easy to sum a trillion numbers with physical hardware09:47
rkoswhats that?09:47
rkosi dont mean storing 300 exabytes but making something out of it09:47
kanzureeleitl: it's not like we forgot to write the device drivers or something09:47
eleitlSpaun is a toy brain model, and Boahen will make it run in realtime09:47
rkosand im pretty sure that storing 300 exabytes a year is a big strain too09:48
eleitlthe data is live, so it has to live in memory09:48
eleitlyour storage is just for checkpoints, and a few trajectory frames, maybe09:48
rkoshavent heard of spaun kwabena or boahen but ill check it out09:48
eleitlKwabena Boahen is a hybrid hardware guy, very sensible09:49
rkoswhat do you mean that its live09:49
eleitlit lives in core, not disk09:49
eleitldisk is effectively static09:49
eleitlso your limit is core, not disk09:49
eleitlam I making sense?09:50
rkoscan the core handle much more than the disk then?09:50
eleitlit can handle less, which is why it's your bottleneck09:50
kanzureiirc information density per unit static storage is higher and is expected to be higher for quite a while longer09:51
eleitlexascale is about ops09:51
-!- klafka [~klafka@c-24-6-18-31.hsd1.ca.comcast.net] has quit [Remote host closed the connection]09:51
eleitlkanzure: exactly09:51
rkosbut well if i understand the simulation itself will be limited by the cores capacities but the 300 exobytes/year will have to be stored on disks somewhere or just lost09:51
kanzureit's not a simulation, like i said the first time09:51
-!- augur [~augur@129-2-129-33.wireless.umd.edu] has joined ##hplusroadmap09:52
rkos300 exobytes i understood to be the output of the simulation09:52
rkoswhat kind of computing the simulation itself will require i dont know09:52
eleitlyou can't store the whole trajectory, so you have to consider it a numeric experiment09:52
eleitlyou have to instrument it, and record from your probes09:52
eleitlyou can also extract observables, which are all far more compact than your giant glob of data09:53
eleitlyou only need space for checkpoints, and maybe a few trajectory frames09:53
eleitlso 10-100x of your core would be enough09:53
rkosisnt what they try to do take all the observable qualities of the brain and make a computerized model of those qualities?09:53
kanzurethey are emulating individual neurons and subcomponents of neurons09:54
eleitlthey're loading the simulation with data from biology, and switch on the physics09:54
eleitlit's much easier to record from live data than from live animals09:54
kanzureeleitl: or at least that's their claim. i worry sometimes that their scientists will opt to cheat...09:54
eleitltry putting in a million probes into a rat09:54
eleitlcan't be done09:54
kanzuregladly09:54
eleitlexascale will be a very hard engineering challenge, so they will have to work with that09:55
kanzurearguably exascale is not anywhere near the largest challenge09:55
rkoswhats the checkpoints and trajectory frames09:55
eleitlhybrid and Spinnaker-like approaches are also far more interesting than generic exascale iron09:55
eleitla checkpoint is where you write an image you can later resume from09:56
eleitljust like suspend/resume in your notebook09:56
eleitlwhen your jobs are many months, you can't afford to restart from scratch09:56
rkosnotebook?09:56
kanzurecomputer09:56
eleitlwhen your system state is written to nonvolatile storage09:56
rkosyou mean you save something?09:56
eleitlyes, precisely09:56
kanzureit is a common feature of laptops, netbooks, notebooks09:57
rkosand trajectory frames?09:57
eleitlin case of simulations, you write checkpoints periodically09:57
eleitlyour system state is evolving along a trajectory in state space09:57
eleitlin discrete time steps, it's evolving along frames, just like in the movie09:58
rkosmovie?09:58
eleitlif you write a few frames to disk, you can look at changes09:58
rkosoh frames in movies?09:58
eleitlmovie, film09:58
eleitlcelluloid, yes09:58
rkosso you store the previous states?09:58
kanzurenot usually09:58
eleitlyou can also instrument your running simulations, and only record things of interest09:58
kanzureyou don't store all previous states because that would be too costly09:59
eleitlyou can't dump every frame to disk, that would be prohibitive09:59
eleitlso you select a given window of interest09:59
kanzureeleitl: how about this one, http://ms-brainwallet.github.io/10:00
rkosso the model of the brain starts with taking empirical data by observing neurons? inserting that data into somekind of computer in which that data goes through different states of which some are saved as checkpoints?10:01
eleitlkanzure: never seen it before, look at the code whether you can trust it10:01
eleitlrkos: you're building numerical models of live neurons10:02
eleitlideally, you're simulating the same system you've observed before10:02
kanzureeleitl: i think it would be interesting to monitor for simple deterministic addresses, like dictionary words -> btc address and then spend when something enters the blockchain on that address.10:02
rkoswell they arent going to contain all the properties of live neurons because we probably havent observed every aspect of neurons10:02
eleitlrkos: science starts somewhere10:03
kanzurethere are electrophysiology studies of many thousands of types of neurons10:03
rkosyeah i know i like the idea10:03
eleitlright now we've got a glut of structure which does things we don't yet understand10:03
eleitlespecially, large scale dynamics need a certain system size to emerge10:03
kanzurethis is how you end up with things like http://channelpedia.net/10:03
eleitlso, you have to scan large biological systems, and build rather large computers to run these10:04
eleitland then you'll see what you'll see10:04
eleitlif your simulated system starts doing the same things as your wet system, you know you're on the right track10:04
kanzureyeesh "Currently, Channelpedia contains ~180,000 abstracts related to ion channels from Pubmed."10:04
eleitlonly10:04
rkosbut it seems like an extremely bruteforce way to deal with mental illness10:04
kanzureit's not for mental illness10:05
* eleitl does only care about immortality10:05
eleitlyou die, get scanned, and live happily ever after10:05
rkoslike i like the science aspect but the stuff you hear eg obama say about the BRAIN initiative and that sort of stuff just doesnt seem sensible10:05
eleitlwhy are you beleiving anything that politicians say?10:06
rkosim not believing it like i said10:06
rkosbut it does matter what they say10:06
eleitlonly results do matter10:07
eleitland results cost money10:07
rkosthats where the money comes from and it would be nice if people wouldnt be going crazy about all this science stuff10:07
rkosand the money coming is largely influenced about whats said in the media10:07
eleitlas long as the money comes in I wouldn't worry about why10:07
eleitlpoliticians worry about credit, so they will say anything that will make them look good10:08
eleitlso, you can ignore that part10:08
eleitlpolitical science is almost that bad, unless you can look behind the scenes10:08

@archelsyeah, I don't know. I was skeptic about the "let's just measure it all" philosophy behind the BRAIN project. But maybe that will actually get us somewhere--tell us something about the dynamics, temporal relationships, correlations, what have you.12:08
kanzurewell, it's certainly true that neurons behave differently, and this has to be accounted for somehow, right?12:10
kanzureyour pyramidal cells aren't the same in all the places12:11
@archelsindeed, the essential bit would be to correlate it with morphology and biomarkers12:20
rkoswell surely the hbp/brain projects will help industries and provide good data, but i think that ultimately the brain is itself a model that doesnt contain the whole mind, so its unlikely to solve any philosophical mysteries13:09
rkosi like to think of the dream of being recreated electronically just as being expanded electronically, not really recreated13:12
kanzuresorry, but we don't believe in mind in here, get out13:15
kanzureit's as bad as souls13:15
rkoswell im not going to get out because of that13:15
rkosi lay claim to my mind13:15
kanzurewell, perhaps not as bad, it's a little bit less awful, but not dramatically13:15
kanzureyou can lay claim to your brain but i haven't found evidence of a mind yet13:15
eudoxiaomg who cares about philosophy13:15
kanzureeudoxia: what have you been up to?13:16
rkosits information its useful13:16
kanzureit is anti-information13:16
eudoxiaif the model quacks like me and codes like me, i wouldn't care13:16
eudoxia(especially cause i would be a descerebrated corpse but w/e)13:16
kanzureif i start quakcing i'm not sure what to think13:16
kanzure*quacking13:16
eudoxiakanzure: not much, some code here and there13:16
rkosyou shouldnt just base your attitude on knee jerk reactions based on the social groupings youve ended up in13:17
kanzurethey are not knee jerk13:17
kanzureif you consider it you will find that these are the only thoughts that make sense (using evidence to inform yourself)13:17
rkoswell have you built up anything to sustain a hate of philosophy? because id be interested in hearing that philosophy of yours...13:18
eudoxiawell my philosophy when it comes to WBE is "shut up and simulate"13:18
kanzureeudoxia: simulation is not emulation13:18
rkosits better to live with the stress of senselesness, that doesnt make you unable to still keep using things like always13:18
kanzurerkos: what?13:18
kanzurerkos: neither of your last two messages make sense to me13:19
kanzurerkos: most people are really bad at philosophy, which is why it's mostly-banned in here13:19
rkoswell the first one: you have to build somekind of argumentation to reason to yourself why you have such an attitude, and doing this is philosophy13:19
eudoxiai think 'stress of senselessness' meant being a brain in a jar13:20
rkosi dont think you can transform the world without having somekind of skepticism about you13:20
eudoxiabut any brain emulation is going to include a simulation of the environment13:20
kanzurerkos: let me guess, do you also believe in consciousness?13:21
rkosstress of senselessness i mean when you question everything to the point that black becomes white, but the world still keeps being how it is13:21

rkosyes13:21
rkosyou have to be aware of the abyss around the systems by which you live your life to really appreciate them and understand their limits and what can be done to expand them13:22
rkosi personally think that transcending humanity means transcending other limits than just natural13:23
rkossocial, ideological, psychological13:24
rkosyou can just think of me as crazy13:25
kanzureuh..13:26
eudoxiabut that doesn't really preclude brain emulation13:26
kanzureeudoxia: i don't think he has a consistent conversation he's replying to.13:26
eudoxiayou can work on transcending some psychological thing you have as an emulated brain13:27
rkosbut i dont think the whole of ourselves is contained in a brain13:27
kanzurecorrect, your brain is attached to your body13:27
rkosi think theres more to this world and that theres always going to be more to this world than what we've managed to build explanatory models of13:28
eudoxiapeople with transected spines still have their old personalities13:28
rkosin a way the brain itself is a model created by many brains13:29

kanzurenothing yet, i just have this feeling that i'm going to end up writing some stupid code generator in the next year (reasons unknown) and i'd hate to manually repeat half of llvm or something16:36

ParahSailinthis is what you were hacking webkit on?18:14
kanzurea number of things18:18
kanzurecombining the javascript event loop with the event loop in v8 (node)18:18
kanzuregot javascript variables sharing references with python variables18:18

reentrytrying for 3218:24
kanzurefoucist: yes. there's no good webkit bindings for node.18:24
reentryits almost built on my htpc18:24
kanzurefoucist: webkit is javascriptcore, and used to have v8 support. but anyway, same is true of blink.18:24
kanzurefoucist: they have different event loops, and you can't refer to a javascript object outside of the different "javascript contexts"18:24
kanzurebut if they are both v8 i don't see why not just use both18:25
kanzure*use the same one in both places18:25
foucistbtw, speaking of headless webkit/upnp-dlna.. what would hte client be? another chromium instance on a different machine?18:25
kanzurethe client would be some pile of javascript or python18:25
