chris_99could you still determine someone wasn't braindead by measuring something from the neurons?06:30
eudoxiayou mean measure without actually touching the neurons?06:31
chris_99not sure either by using some kind of probe or any other way06:32
eudoxiawell if it's all necrotic it's definitely dead06:34
eudoxiaotherwise i'm not sure how relevant brain death is in the context of cryonics06:34
chris_99so roughly the state of the neurons is mainly down to ions within them?06:37
eudoxiayou're gonna have to ask an actual neuroscientist06:37

* ThomasEgi is working on a regular keyboard with a layout containing 6 different layers on a window manager that does not require a mouse to operate at all.08:19
ThomasEgibut sure, if you want to use mouse and keyboard together all the time.. why not.08:19

eudoxiai would guess awesome or xmonad since that's what everyone's using08:21
-!- nmz787_i [~nmccorkx@134.134.139.76] has joined ##hplusroadmap08:22
ThomasEgieudoxia guessed right. awesomewm in my case08:22
ThomasEgiand for the very few cases you need a mouse to navigate horribly writen websites... one can even fall back to the refined grid approaches.08:23
ThomasEgiwhich works very well if you have a numblock mapped on one layer of your keyboard layout08:24
ThomasEgiso the only occasion where you really want to have a mouse is for playing games. and during that, there usualy is very little need to swap between mouse and keyboard.08:24
eudoxiai should try vimperator or one of those hardcore things08:24
ThomasEgiyou better be ready to sacrifice some firstborns then :D08:25
eudoxiaThomasEgi: what did you mean with 'different layers' on the keyboard?08:28
ThomasEgimost keyboard layouts use just 2 , in rare cases 3 layers08:29
ThomasEgilike layer 1 is for small letters. layer 2 usualy for captial letters08:29
ThomasEgilayer 3 is sometimes used for stuff luke ³ ² and @08:30
eudoxiaoh so a layer is like alt/shift/altgr characters08:30
ThomasEgiyep. the modifier keys:)08:30
ThomasEgiand. my layout has a total of 6 layers08:30
cluckjpaperbot, http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23685372%2008:30
paperbothttp://libgen.org/scimag/get.php?doi=10.3920%2FBM2012.006308:30
ThomasEgi2 for regular writing, one with all the programming related keys such as bracktes and punktiation and arithmetic operators08:31
cluckjsrsly one page, paperbot?08:31
eudoxiaand a bunch of obscure unicode math stuff right?08:31
ThomasEgithe 4th layer is for navigation, it includes arrow keys, backspace, delete, pos1 , end as well as a numblock (so yo udon't need a separate numblock on your keyboard)08:31
ThomasEgiyeah. the obscure math stuff is on layer 508:32
ThomasEgiℕℝ∂∫ and all that stuff08:32
ThomasEgilayer 6 is greek letters such as μ ω Ω small and capital08:33
ThomasEgiso .. not sure if that counts as 7 layers in total08:33
ThomasEgiusualy 6 layers. cause noone counts small and cap letters as separate layers08:34
ThomasEgiit's optimized for german languge. but changing the first 2 layers should be no problem. http://neo-layout.org/grafik/druckvorlage/neo-druckvorlage.png that's what it looks like if you slam all symbols on the actual key08:36
eudoxiasweet08:37
eudoxiawhat are the os logos doing there though08:37
ThomasEgithe only key that has no modifier is the enter key. so you can feel right at home for at least one key.08:37
ThomasEgiit's a print stencil08:37
ThomasEgithe bottom most row is just to fit everyones taste in os logo keys08:38
kanzurei should call my typing technique "roshi turtle typing"08:39
ThomasEgiiirc there are people using qwert dvorak and colemak dervates of that.08:39
kanzurehttp://img3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20120420131027/dragonball/images/f/fa/Findthatstone1.jpg08:39
ThomasEgikanzure, how does it work?08:40
kanzurewell it's approximately this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pZ-l_oGDbMs&t=4m20s08:43
ThomasEgiso.. you type by .. running over your keyboard in 8 seconds?08:50
ThomasEgii don't get it.08:50
eudoxiai don't get it either, maybe it's further in the video08:51
ThomasEgii watched it to the end08:51
kanzurei was joking. sorry about that. if you're actually interested in my technique it involves ranting loudly on the internet for decades.08:51
ThomasEgilound ranting makes you type. so you use voice input?08:51
-!- kuldeepdhaka [~kuldeepdh@unaffiliated/kuldeepdhaka] has quit [Ping timeout: 265 seconds]08:52
kanzureit is possible to type loud sentences08:52
kanzureLIKE ALLCAPS08:52
ThomasEgifor some reason.. i feel urged to write avoice input library that sucks like hell but has an extremly high accuracy detecting curse words :D08:52
kanzurei used to be much faster at chat08:52
eudoxiakanzure: tangential question, what was that program where you type by moving a pointer into letters as they appear from  the right side?08:52
kanzuredasher08:52
eudoxiathanks08:52
eudoxiai recall you said you tried it a few times but never got around to using it for real08:53
eudoxiahas that changed?08:53
kanzurei think i was using it for 30 minutes once to type sentences but it was just not entertaining enough or useful enough to warrant further use08:54
kanzurei think the next typing software thing that i try is going to be plover08:54
kanzurei've already attempted plover at least a few times but i keep fucking up my keyboard purchases08:54
kanzurei think there's a total of two or three keyboards that it is compatible with :(08:54

kanzuren-key rollover08:55
kanzurenot all keyboards are capable of registering any-given-set-of 10 keypresses simultaneously08:55
JayDuggerAh.08:58
JayDuggerPlover would make an interesting test if Dallas Makerspace has a keyboard show-and-tell.08:58
-!- kuldeepdhaka [~kuldeepdh@unaffiliated/kuldeepdhaka] has joined ##hplusroadmap09:00
ThomasEgito be fair.. the usb standard keyboard device can only register 6 keypresses my design (excluding modifier keys)09:02
kanzureThomasEgi: if i was to bestow a budget would you be interested in doing crazy keyboard things09:03
ThomasEgiso if you want true nkoy rollover you need to no only have a keyboard with the required hardware to detect those presses. but you also need to use the ps/2 connector... or a custom keyboard usb driver09:03
kanzurei'd be willing to write a custom keyboard usb driver09:03
ThomasEgii'm not much into crazy keyboard hardware. but i can point you to people who may09:03
kanzurei would like to meet those people yah09:03
kanzure*yeah09:03
ThomasEgiin #neo they may be able to point you towards the right people/forums/boards09:04
-!- nmz787_i [~nmccorkx@192.55.54.38] has joined ##hplusroadmap09:07
archelsThomasEgi: I'm a bit skeptical about a plethora of modifier keys. At one time I used an app that would let me access most or any unicode character based on a simple sequence after hitting a single 'special' access key. E.g. [Alt]+1 -> 'g' for Greek, 'a' for alpha09:09
archelsit was very quick and intuitive and didn't require me to learn seven keyboard layouts09:09
ThomasEgiif that's all you need. that's good. i tossed qwert overboard cause i hated it and wanted to learn something new anyway.09:09
ThomasEgifrom my experience, the navigation and programming layers are really wonderful09:10
-!- nmz787_i [~nmccorkx@192.55.54.38] has quit [Client Quit]09:11
ThomasEgii rarely use the math and greek symbols myself. but being able to reach all the brackets and cursor movement without having to move my hand at all was well worth the few weeks of learning process09:11
archelsadmittedly I'm neither a vi nor an emacs nerd09:14
archelsI find both to be an affront to user interface design09:14
kanzuredoes that mean you also don't use emacs or vi?09:14
archelsnotepad++09:14
ThomasEgii'm mostly using geany09:14
eudoxiai use emacs and a WM with emacs-like keybindings09:15

ParahSailindude using ''.join([dirname, basename]) because he doesnt want to add extra dependency on os.path11:01
ParahSailinfirst line of file is import os11:02
kanzureis he aware that most of the os module is just pass-through to standard system calls11:02
kanzurewhat happened to writing everything in haskell11:03
eudoxiawhy would you be worried about dependency on the stdlib11:03
ParahSailinkanzure: having to deal with other people's shit11:03

ParahSailingod, and theres a "/".join in here too11:06
ParahSailinseriously? '/'.join(list[0:len(list)-1]) + '/'11:08
ParahSailinoh no wait, it gets better, the previous line is ` list = (self.params['Path_to_genome_file']).split('/') `11:10
ParahSailinos.path.basename in two lines11:10

kanzureself.params is bad because you could just call self.path11:12
kanzureself.params is definitely smelly11:13
kanzurealso in python it is considered poor form to name your variables based on reserved keywords like "list"11:13
kanzurei found a peculiar fellow who decided to use classes that extended from collections.namedtuple or something, just as a basic way to name the variables you expect to keep track of11:14
ParahSailinnah its not a reserved keyword, and shadowing builtin values is totally awesome11:14
kanzureoops yeah there's like a list and reserved keyword is the worst, and the other end is "yep totally free", and in between it's builtin and.. uh..11:14
-!- Viper168 [~Viper@unaffiliated/viper168] has quit [Ping timeout: 255 seconds]11:18
ParahSailinok no i think i have something better: def check_dir_path(self,path) {length = len(path); if path[length-int(1)] != '/' {path = ''.join([path,'/'])}; return path}11:20
kanzurehave you considered quitting11:22
eudoxiawhat's that curly brace thing11:24
ParahSailinpython doesnt really support that but pretend like its crs and proper indentation11:25
eudoxiaoh i thought it was a literal code fragmet11:26
eudoxiafragment*, at one point i wondered if it was scala11:26
kanzureyes it is hard to communicate python indentation in a single line11:28
ParahSailineither post a url to a gist, make inline pseudopython, or paste literal multiline python, i did 211:28
kanzurethe solution is to never speak of python and don't admit it11:28
kanzureit's too bad that javascript sucks so much11:29
kanzureand that python can't get its own npm because module importing is fucked up11:29

kanzuremethinks it would be easier for you to just write your own11:33
ParahSailinmost of the time i just hear the other guys typing and assume theyre doing something useful11:34
eudoxiai go out of my way to make my python as un-C++-y as possibly but when i see things like that i feel better about myself11:35

kanzurecan anyone find me a copy of "The Rapid Emergence of Bio-Electronic Novelty, Neuronal Architectures, and Organismal Performance"16:15
kanzure"Data from the fossil record and comparative morphology indicate that organisms with complex brains and sophisticated sensory systems evolved very rapidly in the early Paleozoic in a time interval perhaps shorter than 5 million years. Owing to such severe time constraints, it is inevitable that the neuronal architecture for complex sensory and motor functions must have been forged via a modular mode of reorganization rather than by the ...16:15
kanzure... invention of a large number of novel elementars (new proteins, new gene control regions, or new cell types). As the molecular mechanisms involved in embryogenesis and brain development become increasingly better known, and as the various genome projects furnish sufficient data of requisite quality, testable hypotheses about the features that distinguished Cambrian from Precambrian genomes are becoming easier to formulate. For Drosophila ...16:15
kanzure... melanogaster it is already clear that major neuronal gene expression patterns during development are few in number and restricted in extent. These findings have significant implications for the evolution of behavioral outputs of organisms at different levels of complexity and make it likely that neuronal architectures have been explored only partially since the Cambrian. In this chapter we evaluate the data bearing upon abrupt versus ...16:16
kanzure... smooth evolutionary transitions in terms of (a) the modular modes of biological construction at the protein and neuronal circuit levels, (b) the rates and "costs" of complex brain evolution, and (c) the constraints of' interacting gene and protein pathways on nervous system evolution."16:16

nmz787_iit looks like I might be able to get a hardcopy on loan http://portlandstate.worldcat.org/title/flexibility-and-constraint-in-behavioral-systems-dahlem-workshop-revised-papers/oclc/846581098&referer=brief_results17:04
nmz787_iI can't find a reference to it on wiley.com though17:04

FourFireso, http://www.extremetech.com/extreme/179289 must be old news by now17:07
FourFireinteresting though, I haven't been following up on bone implant advancements17:08
FourFireTeeth is one of the things I keep an eye out for, though.17:08
ParahSailinregretting the cyanide tooth implant and want the original one back?17:13
FourFireParahSailin, nope, just thinking long term17:25
FourFirethere's a list of human body parts which need to be replaced in order to reach indefinite lifespan17:26
FourFire(I'm a proponent of biological indefinite lifespan, haven't worked through the "but a computer simulation of my neurones firing isn't me" issue)17:27
FourFirefrom my point of view the P Zombie issue is unfalsifiable17:27
