| fenn | philip kennedy was doing research on restoring speech with a locked-in patient, but the patient bumped the electronics and they had no budget to do the replacement surgery. they didn't meet the $20k-$85k goal so they did the replacement in belize, which apparently got dr. kennedy thinking about getting an implant of his own | 06:14 |

| kanzure | jedi are real, han solo said so | 06:15 |
| kanzure | yeah, real-time speech synthesis is a much better idea than the other 1 bit/minute brain-computer interfaces | 06:16 |

They created a beagle with double the amount of muscle mass by deleting a gene called myostatin.

A different Chinese Institute, BGI, said in September it had begun selling miniature pigs, created via gene ... | 06:22 |

The dogs are being kept at the Guangzhou General Pharmaceutical Research Institute, which says on its website that it breeds more than 2,000 beagles a year for research. Last month, Duanqing Pei, a representative of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, highlighted Lai’s work as part of what he called a large Chinese effort to modify animals using CRISPR. The list of animals already engineered ... | 06:22 |
| kanzure | ... using gene editing in China includes goats, rabbits, rats, and monkeys. Pei described the efforts as a national scientific priority and part of China’s effort to establish world-class research. Church said he also believed the alteration of dogs and other large animals could open a path to eventual gene editing of people. “Germline editing of pigs or dogs offers a line into it,” he said. “People might say, ‘Hey, it ... | 06:22 |

| mosasaur | are any of you interested in changing world views, or is it just tech, and the expectation that things will work out accordingly to what tech we will have? | 07:04 |
| fenn | the latter | 07:05 |
| mosasaur | I was afraid of that | 07:05 |
| fenn | you can always join zoltan istvan's presidential campaign of course | 07:05 |
| fenn | the problem is that if you just make a bunch of magazine articles nothing actually happens | 07:06 |
| Aurelius_afk | mosasaur : changing world views tends to do nothing but add another flavor to the list, or at best replace one--which is fine | 07:06 |
| poppingtonic | It's hard enough changing the world-views of dedicated, erstwhile rational scientists who have spent most of their careers on a particular approach, when there are new developments. Try that for genpop. | 07:07 |
| kanzure | most scientists don't need to have their "views" "changed". don't know what that's about. | 07:09 |
| kanzure | mosasaur: again, a good description of this place can be found here: http://diyhpl.us/wiki/transhumanism and http://diyhpl.us/wiki/hplusroadmap | 07:09 |
| fenn | once you can actually buy an anti-aging treatment all this ethical discussion crap will go out the window | 07:10 |
| fenn | the UN will declare it a human right and people will leave countries where it is banned as if their life depended on it | 07:10 |
| kanzure | you can buy cryopreservation and yet the bioethicists are still screaming at everyone | 07:10 |
| mosasaur | kanzure: I am interested in the topic, but, if allowed, I will also ask for directions to groups of similar minded people | 07:11 |
| fenn | i'm actually not sure what they have to say about cryo | 07:11 |
| kanzure | fenn: gracefulness of dead bodies, violation of human rights to process deceased tissue, that sort of stuff. boring bullshit. | 07:11 |
| kanzure | mosasaur: well if you are not interested in tech development, #lesswrong might be more your style. | 07:12 |
| fenn | huh? | 07:12 |
| Aurelius_afk | mosasaur : what world views do you want to change | 07:12 |
| kanzure | fenn: most of the complaints from "ethicists" about cryonics are related to "sanctity of the human body" or something. | 07:12 |
| fenn | but that's not ethics at all | 07:12 |
| Aurelius_afk | feel free to pm, I guess | 07:12 |
| poppingtonic | Actually, I've changed my mind on that. | 07:12 |
| kanzure | fenn: facts rarely matter when talking to ethicists | 07:12 |
| kanzure | "your fact is unethical!!one" | 07:13 |
| fenn | i wonder how much of that is just tumblr activism | 07:13 |
| kanzure | oh for cryonics? almost none at the moment. | 07:13 |
| kanzure | entirely none, afaik | 07:13 |
| fenn | it probably pisses off actual ethicists just as much | 07:13 |

| nsh | Some academics are fighting back against publishers of academic journals by providing copies of papers to researchers who don't have access. For some reason, the publishers aren't happy! Cognitive scientist Andrea Kuszewski said, "Basically you tweet out a link to the paper that you need, with the hashtag and then your email address. And someone will respond to your email and send it to you." That beg | 11:16 |
| nsh | ins the conversation, and then the scientists cover their tracks: "Once contact is made, all subsequent conversation is kept off of social media — instead, scientists correspond via email. The original tweet is deleted, so there's no public record of the paper changing hands. Kuszewski and others say the method is necessary to get up-to-date research in the hands of academics from developing countri | 11:16 |

| chris_99 | nmz787_i, how do you program the proppellers though? | 11:18 |
| chris_99 | i mean electronically | 11:18 |
| kanzure | academic institutionalized science is not going to make progress on the publishing problem until their "career metrics" stuff is solved, until then these other issues will continue to appear | 11:18 |
| nmz787_i | chris_99: super easy, basically like arduino... one file to download and you plug in a serial converter and youre done | 11:19 |
| nmz787_i | chris_99: just USB to serial converter is all | 11:19 |
| chris_99 | aha cool | 11:19 |
| kanzure | 11:19 | |
| nmz787_i | chris_99: the main reason to use the propeller is because you can bit bang the CCD protocol with no worries of doing other stuff in-between signalling the CCD... which add non-determinism or jitter | 11:20 |
| nmz787_i | (well you don't want non-deterministic or deterministic jitter, period) | 11:20 |

| chris_99 | yeah, that does make sense | 11:20 |
| chris_99 | i'll do some reading on them | 11:21 |
| nmz787_i | I tried doing the CCD protocol with timers and interrupts to change the timers, but a state machine in assembly was easier in the end | 11:21 |
| nmz787_i | the only thing would be that the code might need tweaked if you're using a different system clock, I think I wrote the code with an 80MHz clock, or maybe it was 96MHz | 11:21 |
| nmz787_i | but that would just be changing the NOPs I think | 11:22 |
| chris_99 | mmm | 11:22 |
| nmz787_i | do you have a scope or logic analyzer? | 11:22 |
| chris_99 | i've done VGA timing signals before which was fun heh | 11:22 |
| chris_99 | yeah i do | 11:22 |
| nmz787_i | you'll need one regardless of the CPU to debug | 11:22 |
| chris_99 | mmm | 11:22 |
| nmz787_i | I used a 2-channel with external trigger line, so sort of 2.5 channels | 11:22 |
| chris_99 | i've got the cheapest rigol 2-channel one | 11:23 |
| chris_99 | the one that can be hacked to 100Mhz | 11:23 |
| nmz787_i | but it would have been a bit more convenient with a 4 channel, as I recall (this use case was actually why I ended up buying a 4 channel) | 11:23 |
| nmz787_i | ah yeah, that's the one I was using | 11:23 |
| nmz787_i | has the trigger BNC on the back | 11:23 |

| nmz787_i | there are also some with FPGA like logic | 11:25 |
| chris_99 | yeah im thinking something that takes VHDL | 11:25 |
| nmz787_i | but they're all going to be as much work to get up and running, as it would take to write the code for the ADC | 11:25 |
| nmz787_i | i.e. none are that easy/quick to jump into | 11:26 |
| nmz787_i | the PSOC chips might do it, I can't remember | 11:26 |
| chris_99 | thats it! | 11:27 |
| chris_99 | i was thinking FPGAs make the timing thing a hell of a lot simpler | 11:29 |
| chris_99 | rather than having to work out exactly how many instructions you need | 11:29 |
| nmz787_i | yeah quite possibly, I mean, from all I know it seems like that would be the case | 11:31 |

| nmz787_i | they used an onboard ADC i believe | 13:46 |
| nmz787_i | and maybe were throwing away some pixels, I can't remember | 13:46 |
| nmz787_i | the person wasn't very engaging when I offered help | 13:46 |
| nmz787_i | ben krasnow got MUCH further than that project did, in just a single youtube video | 13:51 |

| nmz787_i | delinquentme: have you heard that at least one person thinks DNA is not natively a helix in-vivo? | 15:37 |
| nmz787_i | this person also thinks this is a big reason we haven't progressed as much as was thought like 50 years ago | 15:38 |
| delinquentme | I think its probably in a great many states ... and certainly anything being transcribed isnt | 15:38 |
| delinquentme | also topioisomerase is a crazy molecule | 15:38 |
| delinquentme | nmz787 did you see the image I posted w the question on tunneling? | 15:39 |
| nmz787_i | i saw some pencil drawing, but it didn't seem associated with a question | 15:40 |
| delinquentme | Ah. Yeah. How would you rank the observed tunneling current at each of the poins shown: http://imgur.com/CtDKZJf | 15:43 |
| nmz787_i | where are the electrodes? | 15:44 |
| delinquentme | the tip would be at each of those points | 15:46 |
| nmz787_i | and the substrate is the other electrode? | 15:46 |
| delinquentme | and the substrate is connected to the measurement circuit | 15:46 |
| delinquentme | yeap! | 15:46 |
| nmz787_i | and this is in electrolyte, air, vacuum? | 15:46 |
| nmz787_i | dielectric liquid? | 15:46 |
| nmz787_i | I don't know 'what' the current will be at those points, but it will basically depend on how different the matter between the electrodes was from the DNA, in terms of dielectric strength, I guess | 15:48 |
| nmz787_i | so if the liquid was not very conductive, I'd expect more current where the DNA is | 15:48 |
| nmz787_i | haha, linked from the last imgur was this gif of trolling cats: http://imgur.com/gallery/ggQUrJ9 | 15:54 |

| nmz787_i | delinquentme: actually, if the liquid wasn't conductive, and the DNA is also not very conductive (I know it has semiconductor properties), then realistically you probably wouldn't see any current... so you'd need to test impedance instead | 20:21 |

| delinquentme | nmz787_i, I wonder how they image it at all though if its non-conductive or even semiconductive | 21:31 |
| delinquentme | from what I can tell none of the research suggests its bandgap is being addressed | 21:31 |
| delinquentme | emailed you a pdf nmz787 | 21:32 |
| nmz787_i | delinquentme: depends on how you image it | 22:06 |
| nmz787_i | delinquentme: xrays are uncharged for example | 22:06 |
| nmz787_i | then there's afm, tip-enhanced raman, stm...etc | 22:07 |
| nmz787_i | not to mention electrons in various configurations | 22:07 |
| nmz787_i | delinquentme: recently I was reading about cryo EM tomography | 22:09 |
| nmz787_i | specifically for DNA | 22:10 |
| nmz787_i | delinquentme: that paper uses dielelectric properties basically, the tip has a charge, and if that charge dissipates or not is sensed, and the difference is seen as the height in the case of (relatively) pure DNA | 22:16 |
| nmz787_i | relative to a cell (they used DNA + ammonium acetate) | 22:17 |
| nmz787_i | so artifacts in the image may actually be chemical differeneces, not just topological | 22:18 |
| delinquentme | At the molecular scale all materials become conducting. | 22:18 |
| delinquentme | bruh? | 22:18 |
| delinquentme | i just got this in an email from someone whos solid w STM / AFM imaging | 22:19 |
| nmz787_i | well their conductance still depends on the molecular structure | 22:19 |
| delinquentme | so say I have a 512 x 512 sampling density ... I want my raster scan to detect DNA of ~23angstrom | 22:28 |
| delinquentme | whats the maximum distance I can get between sampling points ... and still detect the DNA? | 22:29 |
| nmz787 | wouldn't it be just under 23? | 22:37 |
