archels`kanzure: this from eleitl?09:06
kanzureyes09:06
archels`oh, sorry to hear they closed the lab09:06
kanzure"Oh, our main prospective investor bailed, I gave notice end December, the lab is vacated since end March."09:07
eudoxiathat was his cryonics group?09:07
kanzurei think so yes09:08
archels`I wonder if crowdfunding would be successful for this sort of thing09:11
-!- pyotra [~hrouhan@24.60.79.55] has joined ##hplusroadmap09:12
archels`the community of potential backers might be quite small09:12
kanzurei don't think crowdfunding would work here09:12
kanzurei'm not completely sure that money is the underlying problem09:13
archels`money is always the problem09:13
eudoxiastarting a new cryo org in such a small market is, how do you say it, "spreading too thin"09:13
kanzurethere are many large-scale structural problems regarding the science industries09:13
-!- chris_99 [~chris_99@unaffiliated/chris-99/x-3062929] has joined ##hplusroadmap09:13
kanzurehell, people have trouble ordering their pcr master mix in the first place09:13
kanzureand then when you might need some outsourced service like from scienceexchange you're unlikely to get it unless you're a registered company in a biology-zoned region of your city09:14
kanzureoddly enough, the low cost of biotech labor plays in your favor, if you have money in the first place09:14
archels`kanzure: are you talking about legislatory barriers for biotech?09:15
kanzurethe other half of the problem is that the majority of the funding for anything transhumanist ends up at weird non-profit institutions that died 20 years ago09:16
kanzurewell, wait, i don't know if i should care about the misallocation of philanthropical dollars09:16
archels`at least working outside academia means fewer ethics committees to deal with09:16
kanzure("oh no, people are burning money, what a tragedy".. bleh. who cares.)09:16
kanzurewell, not necessarily legislation, but there's definitely regulatory weirdness in a number of inconvenient places like the federal death administration09:17
kanzurewhat should have happened is that 20 years ago someone should have given eugen leitl a blank check to just hang out and do whatever the fuck he wanted09:19
kanzuresame with anders sandberg before he turned to the dark side09:19
archels`haha09:19
eudoxiamaybe anders can be bought back to the good side09:19
kanzurehe's pretty content with where he's at09:20
archels`he still makes it a point to say "I'm not really a philosopher", so there's hope09:20
eudoxiado you pronounce eugen like "eugen", because i saw it spelt that way in some mailing lists09:20
-!- nsh [~nsh@wikipedia/nsh] has quit [Ping timeout: 250 seconds]09:20

kanzurei think i went for about 6 years without ever pronouncing kanzure09:22
kanzurenobody ever asked and i never had a reason to utter it09:22
archels`Oy-gen, afaik09:23
kanzurei think that he was using eugene back in the 90s and early 2000s09:23
archels`g as in grass09:23
eudoxiaoh like euler, makes sense09:24
kanzureeugen is probably pronounced eugene ("you jean")09:24
-!- Viper168_ [~Viper@unaffiliated/viper168] has joined ##hplusroadmap09:24
kanzureor like eugene, oregon09:24
FourFirewho is anders sandberg, and why is he evil?09:24
archels`eudoxia: yeah09:24
delinquentmemy jean09:24
* delinquentme made contributions today09:24
kanzureanders sandberg was a transhumanist who was on an interesting mission for the longest time09:25
kanzurehe worked on a bunch of nematode neuron uploading projects09:25
kanzureknew his way around software09:25
kanzureand then he decided to join the dark forces and become nick bostrom's coffee bitch09:25

FourFireso, what he was making headway, uploading one of the simplest neural networks, and the quit?09:27
eudoxiahe became a philosopher09:27
eudoxiaand the only pro-transhumanist bioethicist09:27
kanzurehe was already somewhat of a philosopher but then he decided that his time should be focused on problems of simulation arguments09:27

kanzurehttp://www.aleph.se/Nada/09:27
FourFireso, protranhumanists disagree with his decision, because the population of people making headway in the field is smaller than existing philosphers?09:28
kanzurehaha he he has eleitl in his silly quote collection http://www.aleph.se/Nada/Quotes/posthuman09:28
nsh(philosophers don't make headway, they make headroom)09:29
eudoxiai didn't see those09:29
kanzure"(it is considered Seriously Bad Table Manners trying to convert the Rest of the Universe into Self. (Nonself into Self. The ultimative act of cannibalism. Critters would like it.). It might not like it, and bite back. Big teeth. Piranha soup.)"  - eleitl09:29
eudoxia"but who thinks about the initial grain of sand or09:30
eudoxiaencapsulated parasite if one sees a large, perfect pearl?  "09:30
FourFirewhy is the electrical symbol for transistors so widespread in Transhumanist/futurist sites from the 90s?09:30
kanzure"Does it really make so much difference if our children are made of silicon and steel?" - Hal Finney <hal@rain.org>09:30
kanzureah right, i forgot that hal and anders are probably close homies09:30
kanzurehttp://www.aleph.se/Nada/Quotes/crypto09:32
kanzure"The notion that an anonymous posting needs to be traceable to its source is a product of the unification of the old time conservative desire to squelch free speech with the new fangled politically correct liberal desire to squelch free speech." - pmetzger09:32
eudoxiaheh09:32
kanzureFourFire: that was probably a product of the size of the web09:32
kanzureFourFire: like how everyone's site looked like a weird acid trip09:33
FourFireright, the internet was much much smaller back then09:33
FourFireit seems sort of sad that from what I've found, there's no New, Good transhumanist sites09:33
FourFirejust sensationalist reddit level blather like io9 and NextGreatWeb orwhatever09:34
kanzureshrug, there's some content here http://diyhpl.us/wiki/09:34
kanzureeudoxia was trying to make a competing wiki i think09:34
FourFireI haven't been able to locate the modern equivalent of SL409:34
eudoxiahttp://wiki.transhumani.com/index.php?title=Main_Page shameless plu- oh what the hell09:34
FourFiremaybe because it's still sorta active?09:34
kanzureyou really think you can out type me, eudoxia? :grin:09:35
kanzuresl4 is not active09:35
eudoxiawhat a coincidence, i was thinking about merging the transhumani wiki into the diyhpluswiki09:35
kanzurethis channel is the closest you're going to get09:35
eudoxiai SERIOUSLY hope cpopell has a backup of this09:35
kanzureeudoxia: i've been doing some xml transformation of the p2pfoundation wiki into a git repository (just a few more tweaks left)09:36
kanzureeudoxia: if you'd like, i could do the same to transhumani and then merge it into diyhpluswiki.git09:36
eudoxiakanzure: so i heard09:36
kanzurei've also been meaning to do the same to en.bitcoin.it and reprap's wiki.. oof.09:36
kanzurefor some reason it's still a highly manual process even after writing all this terrible python09:36
eudoxiakanzure: i think i would like to do it by hand. pandoc can convert markup and it would be a good opportunity to toss some stuff out09:36
FourFirethis is old, but if you ever find your lungs not working, then this could give you some more time to fix that: http://stm.sciencemag.org/content/4/140/140ra8809:37

FourFirenot competing ones09:41
FourFireduplication of effort sucks, especially with limited populations09:41
kanzureyes, but cpopell didn't agree with me09:41
kanzurehe thought that because diyhpluswiki didn't have the mediawiki css and layout that therefore he should start his own wiki09:41
kanzureso he did. and then eudoxia used it.09:41
eudoxiano, *i* complained about the CSS09:41
kanzureoh sorry09:42
kanzurethat, then :)09:42
FourFireit is claimed that this is the longest running, still active IRC channel for biohacking is this one09:42
FourFireis there something to back up that claim09:42
kanzureyep09:42
kanzurewell, what sort of evidence would you be interested in?09:42
FourFireor is it just because you haven't heard of another one which speaks english?09:42

eudoxiathere might be another one that is alive, but certainly not as active09:43
kanzureoh yeah, i think there's a #transhumanism on efnet or something, with like 2 people09:43
eudoxiaand #dalnet09:43
kanzurehplusroadmap suffers from the problem of not being easily discovered09:43
FourFireyeah, that's not active09:43
kanzurebut this might not be a suffering :)09:43
FourFireyeah, it's a name thing09:43
kanzurewell what the hell do you call diybio biohacking nootropic transhumanist stuff09:44
FourFireoh you mean filter for only the people who are looking hard enough ups the average quality of discussion?09:44
FourFireno, I'm just saying it's not easily findable because of the obscire name09:44
kanzurei don't mean to explicitly say that, but yes that might be happening, but it may als onot be happening09:44
kanzureusually people find this place because they googled around and then they found the logs09:44
FourFirewell I was referred here from a rationalist channel ... I think by cpopell09:45

eudoxia"By God, I have found it"09:46
FourFireI admit that I don't fully understand the definition of "extropian"09:46

kanzurehttp://www.aleph.se/Trans/Cultural/Philosophy/princip.html09:47
kanzurewell, it's a weak form of transhumanism but at least it's vaguely pro-actionary09:47

kanzurewhy is it so important for you that i spend 10-14 hours/day on reddit?09:50
delinquentmeFirst time I came in here I ended up leaving because specifically you made it into a farse09:50
kanzure(i would really rather do other things with my time than that)09:51
delinquentmereddit isnt so imporant but the " I dont care" semi-self serving pomp response09:51
delinquentmeno I agree.09:51
kanzurewhy should i care that people want to get excited?09:51
delinquentmeBut. You're looking for people with a common goal ... and this is ONE of the communities that they can go which isn't total circle jerk crap.09:51
kanzurewhat does that have to do with this conversation we were having09:51
delinquentmekanzure, because not everyone is fucked emotionally.09:52
kanzurei'm not sure i'm looking for people in the first place, actually09:52
delinquentmebeing excited, is a GOOD human quality. And will only help.09:52
delinquentmekanzure, again, you need to get your issues in check.09:52
kanzurejust because you don't accept my emotions doesn't mean i don't have them. that's really wrong.09:52
delinquentmeThat is a massive defense mechanism. Unchecked psych bullshit09:53
kanzureso your answer to "why should i care that people want to get excited?" is "kanzure, because not everyone is fucked emotionally." ?09:53
delinquentmehahah09:53
delinquentmeNo but I can say that they are the wrong emotions.  Now unless you're literally unhinged, which having met you I can tell you aren't09:53
delinquentmeyou're just 'frontin09:53
FourFiredelinquentme, people can get excited after the big stuff is done09:53
kanzurefrontin?09:53
delinquentmeFourFire, sure but .... its more complex than that. Some people need to get excited to do anything at all09:54
FourFirebut those same people should not obstruct people who are actually going to collaborate and Make that big stuff happen09:54
delinquentmekanzure, its not real.09:54
FourFireso, even though it's eliteist, it's instrumentally better to filter for Doers09:54
delinquentmeIts not a genuine emotion, you're trying to be a tough guy at the expense of the community.09:54
delinquentmeFourFire, thats a false dichotomy.09:54
FourFireor at least people who aren't going to lose the signal in all their noise09:54
kanzureit's not elitist09:55
FourFiredelinquentme, of course, you have me there09:55
FourFireI'm excited about genetic engineering, and if I wasn't then I wouldn't be interested in making some of it happen09:56
kanzuredelinquentme: do you legitimately believe that i am unfeeling?09:56

kanzurewell, first, self-funding10:23
kanzureit is possible to use your own resources to acquire more resources10:24
kanzuresecond, i recognize that self-funding is not a suitably interesting answer10:25
kanzureit's certainly not as quick as trying a membership fee system10:25
kanzure(especially if you don't have any money, skills, resources, training, etc.)10:26

ruphoshe's got people at umich university college working on it with him now10:34
ruphos*umich and10:34
ruphosWe've got a new guy who's marine biologist that's working on 3d printing sea sponges10:35
kanzureis it for scaffold for sponge growth?10:36
ruphosI think they're alternating layers of sponge cells and gelatin and seeing if that will hold as scaffold until the sponge cells reintegrate with each other10:37
ruphosI don't know too much about that one, tbh. but it sounds neat.10:37
kanzurehmm maybe sponges die when they are forcefully relocated unless integrated10:38

kanzure"Superautomation on Earth and in space. The use of self replicating systems on Earth poses many problems. A compact, freely replicating system released on the surface of the Earth potentially could compete with humans for resources such as living space and energy. It could also smother us in its waste products. Even if kept under control, a terrestrial SRS could wreak economic havoc by manufacturing products for which the consumers who will ...18:10
kanzure... use the products will not have to pay. Unfortunately, we will probably have to deal with this problem regardless of whether replicating systems technology per se is ever developed. If industrial automation continues in the direction it seems to be headed now, global commerce soon will reach a state of "superautomation" (Albus, 1976) in which an entire national industrial base has become automated and is, for all practical purposes, a ...18:10
