kanzure | "The role of the cerebellum in perceptual processes" http://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s12311-014-0627-7/fulltext.html | 09:21 |
kanzure | "Thus, in electroreception, the cerebellum is involved in sensing external targets by exploiting distortions in signals generated by the animal’s own activity, while cerebellar-like circuits are involved in sensing external targets by eliminating distortions of target signals caused by the animal’s own activity." eeeeeee | 09:22 |
kanzure | "The cerebellar cortical circuit common to the cerebellum and cerebellar-like circuits has apparently evolved independently in at least five groups of animals: vertebrates, cephalopod molluscs, arthropods, onychophorans, and polychaete annelids. All species in which cerebellar and/or cerebellar-like circuits have been reported are motile and sufficiently large that their kinematics is influenced by inertia, and they interact with other ... | 09:23 |
kanzure | ... such animals. Inertia constrains how the kinematic state (position, configuration, and rates of change) of an object changes as a function of applied force, such that, if an object has inertia, then information about its kinematic state can be used to predict its future position and configuration at least in the short term. This is not true of animals (or indeed objects of any kind) whose mass is small or drag is large relative to ... | 09:23 |
kanzure | ... applied forces [68]." | 09:23 |
kanzure | "Animals that have evolved cerebellar(-like) circuits are, therefore, animals for which probabilistic inference about the kinematic states of self and others is both possible and useful. The fact that this group includes disparate, unrelated species indicates that the genetic and developmental capacity for cerebellar(-like) circuits may be shared by all animals with nervous systems and that it has been co-opted by evolution whenever ... | 09:23 |
kanzure | ... there has been an ecological opportunity for animals capable of dynamic motion prediction and control [69]. More generally, the ability to predict state trajectories of dynamical systems from observations provides a core capability that may underpin a wide variety of perceptual, cognitive, and motor tasks [70]." | 09:23 |
kanzure | "Until a few years ago, the Kalman filter was the only known practical algorithm for dynamical state estimation [71]. It assumes linear target dynamics, an assumption that does not hold for mechanical linkages like human and animal bodies. Newer algorithms based on drawing random samples from probability distributions defined by observations are able to track states of high-dimensional nonlinear systems [72]. These algorithms can be ... | 09:24 |
kanzure | ... implemented using spiking neurons, in which a spike at a particular location in a network represents a sample at a particular location in the state space of the system tracked by the network [73, 74]. There is growing evidence that neurons use Bayesian Monte-Carlo algorithms of this kind to implement decisions and actions [75–83]." | 09:24 |
esmerelda | This also sounds quite a lot like reinforcement learning | 09:32 |
esmerelda | Like, it's a Markov decision process if neurons represent states of a system right? | 09:32 |
kanzure | reinforcement learning does not impose restrictions on implementation like "one neuron per state space point" | 09:33 |
esmerelda | So it could be reinforcement learning, then? | 09:34 |
esmerelda | One particular implementation thereof | 09:34 |

Houshalter | are humans just software? | 11:14 |
Diablo-D3 | _anything_ further discussing that line of thought is just stupid, no matter what side you're on | 11:14 |
Diablo-D3 | but that article in-particular? its not even coherent | 11:15 |
Houshalter | intelligence isn't harmless | 11:15 |
Diablo-D3 | Houshalter: yeah, but its like, ZOMG A 4 YEAR OLD MIGHT KILL SOMEONE | 11:15 |
Diablo-D3 | usually, 4 year olds don't kill people | 11:15 |
esmerelda | Humans are legacy code - undocumented, and very difficult to maintain | 11:16 |
esmerelda | It took the dev team 4 billion years and it looks like they ran obfuscators | 11:16 |
Diablo-D3 | hah | 11:16 |
Diablo-D3 | seriously though, we can't even produce intelligent humans most of the time | 11:17 |
Diablo-D3 | whats the chances we'll make a software intelligent enough that can actually run on any sort of hardware that isn't just locked up at google or microsoft or w/e somewhere | 11:18 |
esmerelda | Will we discover general-purpose AI all at once (I.E. comparable generality to humans in learning and achieving goals) | 11:19 |
esmerelda | or will AIs slowly get smarter and more general? | 11:19 |
Diablo-D3 | esmerelda: yes, to both questions. | 11:19 |
Diablo-D3 | its not something that you can just answer like that. | 11:19 |
esmerelda | I was mostly looking for arguments for and against | 11:19 |
Diablo-D3 | what I don't like is how every AI discussion is just philosophical bullshit strung together | 11:20 |
Diablo-D3 | tl;dr of jaron lanier's article? "we're just worshipping a new God, enriching those behind the curtain pulling the levers and ropes" | 11:21 |
Houshalter | Diablo-D3, do you believe superintelligent AI is impossible | 11:21 |
Diablo-D3 | Houshalter: I can't answer that. | 11:21 |
Diablo-D3 | I can tell you it can exist given enough horsepower. | 11:22 |
Houshalter | like there is osme law of nature that says that humans are the peak of intelligence and no improvement is possible | 11:22 |
Houshalter | well if superintellligent AI is possible, then it is incredibly dangerous. | 11:22 |
Diablo-D3 | okay so | 11:22 |

Diablo-D3 | lets say you have the smartest brain possible | 11:23 |
esmerelda | I saw an article a while back describing a theoretical "optimal AI" using a simple (but extremely slow) algorithm | 11:23 |
Diablo-D3 | but its in a jar | 11:23 |
Diablo-D3 | and its interaction with the outside world is heavily regulated | 11:23 |
Diablo-D3 | not an AI, a brain | 11:23 |
esmerelda | Assume one feed of sensory input data, Sk | 11:23 |
Diablo-D3 | 1960s scifi and everything | 11:23 |
Diablo-D3 | unless you're putting that brain in an atomic powered robot body | 11:24 |
Diablo-D3 | I can't really see anything going wrong | 11:24 |
esmerelda | And an infinitely enumerable set of models Mk | 11:24 |
Diablo-D3 | its not like, ghost in the shell, where military AIs escape to the internet and copy itself to mainframes everywhere | 11:24 |
Houshalter | Diablo-D3, why are you assuming AI will exist in a jar? once the technology exists, people will put it everywhere | 11:24 |
Diablo-D3 | Houshalter: not in my lifetime unless there is a massive increase in computational power | 11:24 |
Diablo-D3 | the most powerful "computer" in the world is owned by Google | 11:25 |
Diablo-D3 | its a massive gigantic super-cluster, that doesn't meet the requirements of being on the top500 list | 11:25 |
Houshalter | Diablo-D3, massive increases in computational power happen every other year | 11:25 |
Diablo-D3 | Houshalter: except they don't | 11:25 |
Diablo-D3 | there may have not been a massive increase in my lifetime. | 11:25 |
Diablo-D3 | it was faster when I was a kid | 11:25 |
Houshalter | therre has been a massive increase in the past 5 years, let alone your lifetime | 11:26 |
Diablo-D3 | but all the really huge jumps happened in the late 70s | 11:26 |
Diablo-D3 | we have different definitions of massive increase, I think | 11:26 |
Houshalter | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FLOPS#Cost_of_computing | 11:26 |
esmerelda | It would find the j such that Sum_k[Abs(Sk-Mj(Sk))]/KolgomorovComplexity(Mj) is maximized | 11:26 |
Diablo-D3 | Houshalter: _cost_ of computing isn't the issue | 11:26 |
Diablo-D3 | and flops is not a useful measurement of computational power | 11:26 |
Houshalter | yes it is, and yes it is | 11:27 |
Diablo-D3 | I'm not saying computers aren't getting faster | 11:27 |
Diablo-D3 | but there has been no real major jumps | 11:27 |
esmerelda | Ie. Aply Occam's razor by enumerating models starting with low-complexity going to high-complexity, and choosing the least complex model that explains the sensory input | 11:27 |
Diablo-D3 | the biggest thing in my entire lifetime? home computers getting multiple cores in an SMP arrangement | 11:27 |
Houshalter | AI is powered by FLOPS, and the cost is the fairest unit to measure that | 11:28 |
Diablo-D3 | I used to own a P3 550, it was the most powerful computer a home owner could have at the time | 11:28 |
Diablo-D3 | I now carry it in my pocket. | 11:28 |
Diablo-D3 | Houshalter: flops are generally measured by uselessly spamming MADs. | 11:28 |
esmerelda | Computing power is useless without an algorithm | 11:29 |
Diablo-D3 | you have to measure many things, including various interconnect bandwidths and latencies, RAM speeds, storage IO speeds, etc | 11:29 |
Diablo-D3 | esmerelda: I agree | 11:29 |
Diablo-D3 | but whatever algorithm we end up creating, it will require massive compute power | 11:29 |
Diablo-D3 | and its not a problem you can easily parallelize either | 11:30 |
esmerelda | Discussions of computing power are useless as a corollary. Without knowing the algorithm, we don't know what computing hardware will work it efficiently | 11:30 |
esmerelda | Uh citation needed | 11:30 |
Diablo-D3 | by "easily parallelize" I mean we can't merely throw GPGPUs at it. | 11:30 |
Houshalter | Diablo-D3, why not? that's literally how AI has been progressing | 11:31 |
esmerelda | Why not? Do you know how the algorithm has to be structured then? | 11:31 |
TMA | the most advance we got in computing power in recent years is from parallelism, not from enhancing the raw single-thread power | 11:31 |
Diablo-D3 | Houshalter: AI research has been using it when it makes sense | 11:31 |
Diablo-D3 | TMA: yes. | 11:31 |
Houshalter | I think AI will probably move to FPGAs and ASICs instead of general purpose computers, which gets it an order of magnitude improvement | 11:31 |
Diablo-D3 | I mean, I'm not sure why Houshalter is arguing with me | 11:31 |
Diablo-D3 | this is all well known computer history 101 | 11:31 |
esmerelda | Doesn't your brain literally process millions of simultaneous firings simultaneously? | 11:31 |
Diablo-D3 | Houshalter: yes/no. | 11:31 |
Diablo-D3 | esmerelda: yes, but that doesn't mean that is a useful model for AI | 11:31 |
Diablo-D3 | esmerelda: remember, our brain runs at like 100hz too | 11:32 |
TMA | there is some promise in HP/HPE "The Machine" provided it turns out real and not a vaporware | 11:32 |
esmerelda | 100hz because it is massively parallel... | 11:32 |
Houshalter | Diablo-D3, i'm arguing with you saying that dangerous superintelligence isn't likely in our lifetimes. I strongly believe that it is. You are betting everything on technology stagnating which is jsut unreasonable | 11:32 |
esmerelda | 100hz, and like a quadrillion parallel instructions per cycle | 11:32 |
kanzure | most dangerous things that superintelligence could do are things that non-super intelligence can do, it's a non-concern in my opinion | 11:32 |
Diablo-D3 | Houshalter: okay so, I once wrote a bitcoin miner, it ended up becoming the world's most popular miner for gpus. | 11:32 |
kanzure | humans are perfectly capable of nuking the earth or igniting the atmosphere, thanks. now get the hell out of my channel. | 11:33 |
Diablo-D3 | Houshalter: no one uses it anymore, everyone uses ASICs now. | 11:33 |
Diablo-D3 | I suspect more computation power is being spent on bitcoin than anything else. | 11:33 |

Houshalter | kanzure, well yes humans could destroy the earth easily if we wanted to. thank god we don't want to. The problem with AI is that it would want to do that | 11:34 |
Diablo-D3 | the problem is not AI winters happen, but soon as a technology starts working and everyone integrates into their products, it stops being AI | 11:34 |

kanzure | this is why the planet needs to be blown the fuck up | 11:35 |
Diablo-D3 | kanzure: well, thats honestly what Ive been saying | 11:35 |
Diablo-D3 | but I get yelled at when I do that | 11:35 |
kanzure | Diablo-D3: no, you just said the opposite. don't lie to me. | 11:36 |
Diablo-D3 | kanzure: yes, because people don't bitch when I say that | 11:36 |
esmerelda | kanzure: do you want to blow up the earth before we save a backup? | 11:36 |
kanzure | you were hanging out with the wrong people, and it shows negatively on you that you didn't recognize this | 11:36 |
Houshalter | kanzure, wtf | 11:36 |
Diablo-D3 | kanzure: yeah, but somehow I'm wrong if I say everyones the wrong people. | 11:36 |
Diablo-D3 | at least 90% of the human population may, in fact, be too stupid to live. | 11:37 |
kanzure | Houshalter: i have no idea why you are less interested in humans blowing up the planet. | 11:37 |
Diablo-D3 | I'm the bad guy if I kill off 90% of the human population. | 11:37 |
kanzure | esmerelda: no i don't think so. there's good science in there somewhere. | 11:37 |
Diablo-D3 | So, w/e | 11:37 |
Diablo-D3 | if I want social interaction with normal people, I phrase it as "it stops being called AI" instead of "it probably wasn't AI to begin with" | 11:37 |
kanzure | Diablo-D3: "AI stops being AI when it is integrated" has nothing to do with killing off 90% of the population. thanks. | 11:37 |
Diablo-D3 | like, people call google now and siri AI | 11:38 |
Diablo-D3 | I don't know why | 11:38 |
Houshalter | kanzure, because i'm not a comic book villian? | 11:38 |
Houshalter | and i want to live | 11:38 |
Diablo-D3 | they're just highly advanced natural language parsers | 11:38 |
esmerelda | kanzure: also if you could use something like radiation instead.. the rock formations and rivers are pretty | 11:38 |
Diablo-D3 | using an incredibly huge database of knowledge | 11:38 |
kanzure | Houshalter: i didn't say "you personally interested in acting to blow up the planet". you are clearly interested in AI blowing up the planet. so why not humans? this is absurdly hypocritical of you. | 11:38 |
kanzure | "they are bad at it so far" applies to both humans and ai, anyway. | 11:39 |
esmerelda | The kolgomorov complexity of this conversation is rather low | 11:39 |
kanzure | esmerelda: perhaps you could clarify what you mean by boondoggies then... | 11:39 |
Houshalter | kanzure, ok that was worded confusingly. but yes I agree humans could blow it up, but they don't want to. And even if we had a coordinated program to put a nuke in every city, there would still be survivors | 11:39 |
kanzure | Houshalter: yeah i was thinking of doing a paper about the surprising difficulty of killing all humans. thankfully, blowing up the planet does not require killing all humans. | 11:40 |
esmerelda | kanzure: I read criticisms of the HBP by neuroscientists who claimed the hardware they were building was not necessarily well suited to meaningful simulation of a brain | 11:41 |

kanzure | stop stealing that kragen guy's work, man | 11:41 |
esmerelda | Kanzure: no, only one article. I said that I thought it was a boondoggle, not that it is in fact a boondoggle. | 11:41 |
kanzure | Houshalter: i think that nuclear blasts in cities would not be enough to blow up the planet | 11:42 |

Houshalter | I believe AI is by far the greatest risk to the world | 11:42 |
Diablo-D3 | sure thing Elon. | 11:42 |
esmerelda | I meant to imply this was my default viewpoint given limited data, and I don't hold it strongly | 11:42 |
kanzure | esmerelda: then i would suggest your current understanding is highly biased by detractors :-) it was a $1 billion project and a bunch of people were angry about not getting a slice of the pie. | 11:42 |
kanzure | esmerelda: there's a bunch of interesting neurophysiology that markram's group incorporates into their work | 11:42 |
kanzure | esmerelda: http://diyhpl.us/wiki/transcripts/markram-2006/ | 11:43 |
kanzure | xentrac: what does "evaluating" mean here? | 11:43 |
esmerelda | Kanzure: this is interesting, thank you. I should probably use more clear language when discussing opinions I've heard but don't espouse strongly, to avoid misunderstanding | 11:44 |
kanzure | there was no misunderstanding afaik | 11:45 |
kanzure | opencog, blue brain, then you mentioned you had read some criticism, something about boondoggies, then i gave you links or something | 11:45 |
kanzure | oh, boondoggies came first | 11:46 |
kanzure | yeah i didn't misunderstand that, i just mentioned there was good science in there somewhere | 11:46 |
esmerelda | Ahh OK. I thought you were talking about the totality of human existence | 11:47 |
kanzure | good science in human existence? perhaps :-) | 11:47 |
esmerelda | Hrm, I had a thought unrelated to all of this. | 11:47 |
kanzure | esmerelda: http://diyhpl.us/~bryan/papers2/neuro/ | 11:48 |
esmerelda | Say that we can store the data required to emulate a brain, but evaluation is very slow (E.g. 1 second per week) | 11:48 |
xentrac | um, evacuating | 11:48 |

xentrac | https://www.mail-archive.com/kragen-tol@canonical.org/msg00138.html | 11:49 |
kanzure | oh that makes more sense | 11:49 |
esmerelda | If you put that on a satellite and shoved it out into space, it would not feel slowed down and thus feel probably pretty happy | 11:49 |
kanzure | yes but it would have massive latency | 11:49 |
xentrac | that describes how you can blow up the planet without killing any humans. not that I think this is a good idea | 11:50 |
esmerelda | Sure, but maybe it's a hermit! Or you put 10 brains in there | 11:50 |
kanzure | right, there might be value in having a somewhat working biosphere | 11:50 |
TMA | Sometimes, I wonder whether we don't have a superintelligence already present. -- the world economy directs our decisions. moreover, in a sense, it has its own will, even though it is not an entity in the traditional sense | 11:50 |
kanzure | TMA: no, please see http://slatestarcodex.com/2015/12/27/things-that-are-not-superintelligences/ | 11:51 |
xentrac | the economy, corporations, states, etc., are superhuman intelligences, but they are not superintelligences | 11:52 |
esmerelda | Kanzure: why do you want to blow up the world though? | 11:52 |
xentrac | they are superhuman in other aspects like longevity and physical force, not in intelligence | 11:52 |
esmerelda | Given a collection of processors, I think a superintelligence must demonstrate that it makes decisions better than how good all the individual decisions of the processors are. | 11:54 |
kanzure | blowing up the world would be simpler than tolerating the low-level crap that AdrianG and Diablo-D3 inflict upon me in here | 11:55 |
* esmerelda suggests /mute, or drugs | 11:55 | |
kanzure | well i can also ban them | 11:55 |
* Diablo-D3 rolls eyes. | 11:56 | |
esmerelda | You could make this channel a more complicated variant of #xkcd-signal | 11:57 |
Diablo-D3 | esmerelda: hows that work? | 11:57 |
esmerelda | so that similar statements or lines of reasoning are detected and cause muting | 11:57 |
kanzure | right, i would have to do that manually though | 11:57 |
kanzure | and i would rather that people voluntarily don't suck at all | 11:57 |
kanzure | xentrac: btw, evacuation is much easier if you assume working and useful brain scanning | 11:59 |
esmerelda | kanzure: if you trained an HMM on the chat logs here, and then for an input M computed the probability of producing M with the model | 12:01 |
kanzure | train the model on all the blocked/banned/kicked users? | 12:01 |
esmerelda | Then you divide that probability by the probability of producing any random sentence (mean probability) | 12:01 |
esmerelda | Sure, or even on all users if you want to avoid repeat topics | 12:01 |
kanzure | repeat topics are fine as long as users do due diligence or make an active effort to not be lame | 12:02 |
esmerelda | Then you'll need a training set of lame sentences | 12:02 |
xentrac | kanzure: yeah, if you assume the brain emulation hardware is lighter or more robust to space conditions than human bodies | 12:03 |
xentrac | and I guess cheaper | 12:03 |
xentrac | right now it's much heavier, much more expensive, and significantly less robust | 12:04 |
xentrac | and Moore's Law, which we were counting on to fix that, has ended | 12:04 |
kanzure | well..... you could bury the emulation hardware, and then blow up the planet, and then recover the hardware? | 12:04 |
xentrac | we'll probably come up with a different fix but it's historically contingent | 12:04 |
kanzure | we should bury satellites that get deployed when the planet inevitably breaks up | 12:05 |
esmerelda | Take the simple case: say that Diablo-D3 says "AI is dangerous". Let P(AI, is) = 0.7, and P(is, dangerous) = 0.9 in the model. Then he had a 0.63 probability of saying that statement. Then say that the probability is 0.1 for an average user, that a second model was trained against | 12:05 |
xentrac | what, when the sun cooks it? | 12:05 |
kanzure | well perhaps something happens sooner | 12:05 |
kanzure | maybe | 12:05 |
Diablo-D3 | esmerelda: I wasn't the one saying it was dangerous though | 12:05 |
Diablo-D3 | I was agreeing with kanzure that the article is trash and its wasting people's time | 12:05 |
esmerelda | I'm talking about signal detection | 12:05 |
xentrac | here's a sample non-stupid statement from Diablo-D3: 19:32 < Diablo-D3> Houshalter: okay so, I once wrote a bitcoin miner, it ended up becoming the world's most popular miner for gpus. | 12:05 |
kanzure | what, cgminer? | 12:06 |
xentrac | here's a stupid thing: 19:33 < Diablo-D3> I suspect more computation power is being spent on bitcoin than anything else. | 12:06 |
xentrac | dunno, you'd have to ask him | 12:06 |
Diablo-D3 | kanzure: cgminer is a port of diablominer to C, with later added fpga and asic support | 12:07 |
esmerelda | Right, xentrac. But the system would compare the conditional probability of each transition given that Diablo-D3 said it, vs. the average probability over all users | 12:07 |
esmerelda | That tells you how "Diablo" a statement is | 12:07 |
Diablo-D3 | ck undertook porting it to C to make fpga and asic support possible | 12:07 |
esmerelda | So the system wouldn't flag "Hi", but it would flag "bitcoin miner" (problematic) | 12:08 |
xentrac | but the bitcoin miner statement was actually a point in Diablo-D3's favor | 12:08 |
esmerelda | Yeah. I was just interested to see if I could design a system to censor certain topics or views | 12:09 |
xentrac | that shouldn't be too hard | 12:09 |
esmerelda | Diablo was just a hapless example (sorry, man!) | 12:09 |
esmerelda | xentrac: without much human intervention? Clearly you and I should make a startup for this | 12:09 |
xentrac | unfortunately a system to censor stupid or content-free statements about a topic but not insightful ones is much more difficult, probably AI-hard | 12:09 |
Houshalter | esmerelda, that just rules out all short sentences | 12:09 |
xentrac | Houshalter: that in itself sounds like a good idea | 12:10 |
Houshalter | how do you answer a yes or no question? | 12:10 |
esmerelda | P(yes|Diablo)/P(yes) ~= 1 | 12:10 |
esmerelda | So it wouldn't be censored | 12:11 |
Diablo-D3 | Okay so, what is considered the largest use of computational power of a single project? | 12:11 |
esmerelda | You know, maybe I should just go build this thing. It seems simple and fun | 12:11 |
kanzure | probably a hydrodam would count as a computation | 12:11 |
kanzure | *would qualify | 12:12 |
Diablo-D3 | current hashrate is 9862 exaflops | 12:12 |
Diablo-D3 | 9,862,475 petaflops, folding@home hit 25 petaflops in sep 2015 | 12:14 |
xentrac | Diablo-D3: maybe the black hole at the galactic core? | 12:15 |
Diablo-D3 | so what other projects out there can be measured at single digit zettaflops | 12:16 |
xentrac | Houshalter: you could say something more interesting than "yes" in response, although as esmerelda is pointing out, that wasn't actually what she was suggesting | 12:16 |
Diablo-D3 | xentrac: thats not a computation project though =P | 12:17 |
xentrac | the #xkcd-whatever channel does in fact ban responses like "yes" | 12:18 |
esmerelda | Yeah. My system is different though | 12:18 |
xentrac | Diablo-D3: just because you don't understand what it's computing doesn't mean it's not computation. most people don't understand what their remote control is computing either | 12:18 |
xentrac | esmerelda: yes, I didn't mean to imply otherwise | 12:19 |
Diablo-D3 | xentrac: I don't know what its computing, but I do know its an i.MX | 12:19 |
xentrac | Diablo-D3: are you giving me the model number for the black hole at the galactic core? you are a very silly sentient being. | 12:20 |
Diablo-D3 | xentrac: sigh, no, my remote control. | 12:20 |
xentrac | maybe you might get confused and think that your remote control is also not a computer, as you apparently think about the black hole and about kanzure's example of hydroelectric dams | 12:21 |
Diablo-D3 | xentrac: no, its very much a computer, it has a usb port and everything. | 12:22 |
xentrac | are you suggesting that the black hole at the galactic core is primarily lacking a USB port for you to recognize it as a computer? | 12:23 |
kanzure | oops it's not called a hydrodam is it | 12:23 |
kanzure | xentrac: to be fair, lots of bitcoin mining equipment is also lacking usb ports | 12:23 |
Diablo-D3 | I'm not sure how either of those are answers to the question "what computing project uses the most power, or is in the range of single digit zettaflops" | 12:23 |
xentrac | kanzure: btw I had an interesting chat with Vinay on the tweeter the other night. i tweet little enough that you should be able to find it easily | 12:23 |
kanzure | vinay gupta? | 12:23 |
xentrac | natch | 12:24 |
kanzure | notch?? | 12:24 |
xentrac | naturally | 12:24 |
xentrac | it will probably infuriate you | 12:24 |
kanzure | most things tend to do that | 12:24 |
xentrac | yes, that's why I said that | 12:24 |
kanzure | i am mobile at the moment adn can't go searching. maybe later. | 12:24 |
xentrac | one of the disadvantages of amphetamine | 12:24 |
xentrac | Diablo-D3: well, that black hole is certainly computing a lot more than a measly few zetaflops | 12:24 |
kanzure | even if amphetamines do cause infuriation, i think it's wrong of you to assume it's the sole source of my infuriation. perhaps i am a naturally prone to finding exellent reasons to be absolutely unfuriated by mundane bullshit | 12:25 |
Diablo-D3 | xentrac: but its not computing anything, its not a computer | 12:25 |
kanzure | *excellent | 12:25 |
kanzure | +? | 12:25 |
kanzure | *infuriated | 12:26 |
kanzure | mobile typing sucks | 12:26 |
kanzure | Diablo-D3: perhaps you should look into what computation happens to be :-) | 12:26 |
Diablo-D3 | "A computation can be seen as a purely physical phenomenon occurring inside a closedÊphysical systemÊcalled aÊcomputer. Examples of such physical systems includeÊdigital computers,Êmechanical computers,Êquantum computers,ÊDNA computers,Êmolecular computers,Êanalog computersÊorÊwetware computers. This point of view is the one adopted by the branch of theoretical physics called theÊphysics of computation." | 12:27 |
Diablo-D3 | How the hell did that paste like that. | 12:27 |
* Diablo-D3 stares at both chrome and his irc client | 12:27 | |
xentrac | kanzure: you are of course correct, and I didn't mean to imply it was the *sole* source of your infuriation | 12:27 |
kanzure | xentrac: what is the name of the physicist that i am thinking of? his name starts with an s and he has a wildly famous paper about computation and physics. | 12:28 |
kanzure | his name has an L in it somewhere | 12:28 |
xentrac | related to feynman, landauer, dyson? | 12:28 |
kanzure | oh probably, who isn't? | 12:28 |
xentrac | computation and physics is a very broad field | 12:29 |
kanzure | perhaps i should work on remembering authors other than by the initial letters of their names...... | 12:29 |
kanzure | hmm maybe this is more of an nsh paper than a xentrac paper, although i would be surprised if it turns out you have never seen this | 12:31 |
kanzure | he is somehow related to d'hoof't for some reason | 12:31 |
nsh | what are those space-invaders blockshapes for visual recognition of username/number hashes? | 12:31 |
nsh | maybe all the sciencepals should have one of them each | 12:32 |
xentrac | then you could draw it to look them up? | 12:32 |

kanzure | no not that book | 12:41 |

eudoxia | i interpreted "computation and physics" as "computational physics" | 12:42 |
xentrac | Diablo-D3: it's not clear to me what chain of misguided character encodings turned non-breaking spaces into Ê | 12:43 |
eudoxia | http://groups.csail.mit.edu/mac/projects/amorphous/papers/aim1665.pdf ? | 12:43 |
kanzure | that's an interesting paper, but the one i'm thinking about is much more general and probably older | 12:46 |
Diablo-D3 | xentrac: yeah, I can't figure out why that did that | 12:46 |
kanzure | i am probably thinking of an essay, not a paper | 12:47 |

xentrac | that isn't about physics | 12:51 |
kanzure | nope, sorry, wrong one | 12:52 |
kanzure | also funny to see tom knight | 12:52 |

kanzure | how about "physicists that have a name starting with L and have published to arxiv or seem like they should have, and also wrote about computation and physics"? | 12:54 |
kanzure | the problem is that sussman is such a close match | 12:54 |
kanzure | how can it not be sussman? | 12:54 |
eudoxia | specifically what was the paper about | 12:54 |
eudoxia | hypothetical modes of computation? | 12:55 |
kanzure | principles of computation apply to physics in general way | 12:55 |
eudoxia | ahh | 12:55 |
eudoxia | "atoms are bits, collisions are ops" sort of thing? | 12:55 |

kanzure | hey that has both the letters i wanted | 12:57 |
xentrac | haha gershenfeld | 12:57 |
kanzure | gershenfeld talks about the same concepts, but he wasn't the author | 12:57 |
xentrac | gershenfeld is awesome but I wouldn't expect him to publish papers on either physics or the fundamentals of computation, let alone both at once | 12:57 |
kanzure | well, i mean, he also doesn't focus on physics either | 12:57 |
kanzure | indeed | 12:58 |
kanzure | yes you have stated what i should have said, except much more elegantly | 12:58 |
xentrac | he's more a "let's hack stuff and get people involved" kinda guy | 12:58 |

xentrac | kanzure: moderation is one possible application of social dominance hierarchies | 13:47 |
kanzure | also i think this article ends poorly. it fails to point out that the social status game is much cheaper to play, and the other one is more difficult and requires more effort, which is a useful explanation for why it's not a universal default. | 13:50 |
kanzure | also, to be fair, "randos bringing up random additional factual correctness statements" is in fact somewhat socially maladjusted (for the most part, social agreement throughout history was based on leadership and individuals and cooperation, not about abstract ideation), so it makes sense for people to be socially accustomed to dismissing inline email replies (which while not explicitly stated in the article, i'm fairly certain the ... | 13:51 |
kanzure | ... article's author would agree is a relevant topical example). | 13:51 |

kanzure | recurrent neural network effectiveness http://karpathy.github.io/2015/05/21/rnn-effectiveness/ | 17:09 |
kanzure | for some reason i have http://karpathy.github.io/2015/05/21/rnn-effectiveness/ in my head as "most interesting explanation of recurrent neural network stuff" but i don't know if this is true | 17:09 |
nmz787_i | but I made decent progress last night, implemented getting a bounding box for objects, and returning opposite points on the box | 17:09 |
xentrac | nmz787_i: also writing a slicer from STL is super easy | 17:09 |
xentrac | kanzure: my notes are | 17:10 |
nmz787_i | I can only surmise that I had some idea that the STL to g-code would be sloppy or something | 17:10 |
xentrac | links from 2015-08-15: | 17:10 |
xentrac | http://karpathy.github.io/2015/05/21/rnn-effectiveness/ “The Unreasonable Effectiveness of Recurrent #Neural-Networks” for #image-recognition, #NLP language modeling (producing what looks an awful lot like Markov-chain text with slightly better context-free properties), sequential processing for directing attention over an image, etc. Lots of animations and visualizations of RNNs doing their thing. The models are written in #Lua with so | 17:10 |
nmz787_i | though, slicing in BRLCAD, then exporting an STL of that slice, and generating G-code for a single slice might be nicer in some way | 17:10 |
kanzure | enkiv2: i think you have cutoff syndrome ("Lua with so" | 17:11 |

nmz787_i | since layers in photolithography need a spin-coat cycle... which in g-code would probably just be a "change Z" command | 17:11 |
xentrac | nmz787_i: you might have some M code to set the spin-coating parameters | 17:12 |
kanzure | "STL to gcode" er... CAM should not be direct translation. | 17:13 |
kanzure | kinematics often plays a role | 17:13 |
xentrac | yeah, that's what I said yesterday | 17:13 |
xentrac | although laser cutters in particular are almost immune to kinematic concerns | 17:13 |
kanzure | btw fenn is our resident linuxcnc kinematics monkey, he wrote some sort of inexplicably-high-dof kinematic solver for linuxcnc | 17:13 |
xentrac | and 3-D printers very commonly "cheat" so that you don't have to specify limited-absolute-jerk motion curves in your G-code | 17:14 |
xentrac | but usually laser cutters use HP-PCL with embedded HPGL apparently | 17:15 |
xentrac | but I think nmz787_i built his own or something? | 17:15 |
xentrac | the best documentation I've found about COTS ones is this | 17:16 |
xentrac | http://hci.rwth-aachen.de/materials/publications/oster2011a.pdf Thomas Oster’s bachelor’s #pdf #dissertation on the VisiCut #laser-cutter software. Mentions he got about an inch per second at 500dpi out of the Epilog Zing cutter he was using, or 8 inches per second with the laser off, and documents the HP-PCL, PJL, HPGL, and LPD interface of the machine in some detail. | 17:16 |
kanzure | a dissertation about proprietary laser cutter software...? | 17:16 |
xentrac | no, it's about the software he wrote, which was a printer driver for his laser cutter | 17:17 |
kanzure | this sounds less awful | 17:17 |
xentrac | I don't understand how writing a printer driver merits a bachelor's degree but I guess most bachelor's degrees don't require any kind of thesis | 17:18 |
xentrac | it's free software but it's kind of specific | 17:18 |
kanzure | yes i think bachelor thesis standards are more nebulous | 17:18 |
xentrac | I'm starting to get nostalgic for HPGL | 17:18 |
xentrac | somebody please help me | 17:18 |

xentrac | and how fast to move it, what temperature to heat it to, when to turn cutting fluid on and off, all that stuff | 18:59 |

xentrac | the coagulation still has a minimal line width | 19:00 |
xentrac | but I agree that for a laser it's going to be much closer than for FDM or milling or whatever | 19:00 |
xentrac | whether you're cutting or hardening | 19:00 |
xentrac | probably — and I'm guessing a bit here — at least 100μm difference | 19:01 |
xentrac | which is enough to make the difference between "parts fit together tightly" and "parts have play and fall apart when the assembly is turned upside down" | 19:01 |
xentrac | or between "parts fit together snugly" and "assembly is impossible" | 19:02 |
xentrac | for most materials anyway | 19:02 |
xentrac | and you also likely want to cause coagulation inside the shape you're trying to make, not just at the boundary | 19:02 |
xentrac | maybe in some kind of topopt-generated or crosshatched pattern | 19:02 |
nmz787 | actually I've been thinking that the laser would define the entire object, the width being controlled by focusing/defocusing the beam spot | 19:04 |
nmz787 | but yeah there could be some cross-hatching to do at some point | 19:05 |
xentrac | so that's almost more like a raster representation than a boundary representation | 19:05 |
nmz787 | also depends on the device i want to make | 19:05 |
nmz787 | well except that I want vector paths, not some flyback raster output | 19:06 |

kanzure | "pHflourins are pH sensitive fluorescent proteins used as genetically encoded reporters to measure synaptic release. pHfluorins can be targeted to synaptic vesicles by fusing pHflourin to synaptic vesicle proteins such as SNARE, synaptophysin, and the vesicular glutamate transporter. The acidic environments inside synaptic vesicles quench fluorescence while exocytosis exposes the lumen of the vesicle to neutral pH,which reduces quenching ... | 20:06 |
kanzure | ... and increasing fluorescence 66. The development of mOrange2-pHluorins tagged to VGLUT1 together with a green calcium reporter GCaMP3 fused with synaptophysin-GaMP3 (SyGCaMP3) permits analysis of vesicle release with calcium concentration at the same synapse 67. In addition, glutamate-sensitive fluorescent reporters have also been developed to visualize the release and diffusion of glutamate at the synapse 68." | 20:06 |
