maakuWhat was the group that did Darwinian evolution of programs.00:01
gene_hackerwhich one?00:01
gene_hackerthere are a bunch of groups that do that00:01

kanzure"A second major difference is that the virtual CPUs of different organisms can run at different speeds, such that one organism executes, for example, twice as many instructions in the same time interval as another organism. The speed at which a virtual CPU runs is determined by a number of factors, but most importantly, by the tasks that the organism performs: logical computations that the organisms can carry out to reap extra CPU speed ...06:19

nmz787_ikanzure: space comms is a good reason for bio-based radio indeed (and, c'mon man, don't constrain yourself to just proteins)15:40
nmz787_ijustanotheruser: yeah use my python-brlcad-tcl library, see if you can manage something useful15:41
nmz787_ijustanotheruser: it should just require Python, BRLCAD (windows or linux, as long as it's on the system PATH), and meshlab or something to visualise as STL files (simply a more convenient GUI than BRLCAD provides by default)15:42
nmz787_ijustanotheruser: the API is definitely in-progress... but the examples I have should enable you to get going pretty quickly15:42
nmz787_igenehacker: very interesting on the freecad stuff... looks pretty nice... I can't remember if there was discussion to hook it up to BRLCAD as a back-end15:45
nmz787_imy concern is model computational stability, etc... which BRLCAD claims to be quite cautious and thorough in regards to (since MEMS seems to span such big dynamic range)15:46

xentracsuperkuh: well, radio allows you to transmit at high bit rates at low power over long distances.  maybe light can do that too.  self-replication is pretty fundamentally important, and life by some definitions already has that down18:52
kanzurenon-biological self-replicating nanotech would probably be better if we had any of that19:01

xentracsuperkuh: you probably need something like a firing squad automaton to replace the antenna, or maybe even a local optical signal (from a bio-laser? made of GFP?)20:40

nmz787_superkuh: check out the wires in geobacter if you really want wires... but realistically molecules are just semiconductors that can move around... so it isn't too hard to stretch it to think we can scale a bio-cell up a bit or down a bit to either encapsulate a radio topology in a single cell or amongst a network of small cells or some exudate of them.21:31
superkuhWrong scale.21:32
superkuhIt's not just a bit. Even 8 GHz stuff is going to need many cm long good conductors that aren't suspended in resistive goo.21:34
superkuhAnd an 8 GHz biological oscillator? Now that's far fetched.21:35

superkuhAnd geobacter wires aren't really conductors? Their wire in shape and they transfer charge but they don't transfer charge fast like a conductor with free electrons.22:16
superkuhThey're.22:17
nmz787_this says 'metal like' http://mbio.asm.org/content/6/2/e00084-15.full22:17
nmz787_but I agree you could probably grow quite a lot of magical things22:17
nmz787_but the world is already full of those, so it really isn't terribly surprising to me22:18
nmz787_superkuh: why bother is because electronics manufacturers want cheaper fab... they don't /like/ spending billions of dollars on a fab to get radio chips22:19
nmz787_the shorter answer is: to make money or profit in another way22:20
kanzure22:19 <@gmaxwell> kanzure: some of that suffers from excessive handwave and dreaming without engineering expirence in the relevant area (something I'm often guilty of), very low bitrates at very low power suffer from decohearence. You can't accomulate 1000 seconds of CDMA data to decode your bit because the paths are not stable over those kinds of timeframes; in fact, unless all the communicating parties have pret22:20
kanzure22:19 <@gmaxwell> ty good atomic clocks, their _oscillators_ aren't stable enough over that kind of timeframe to usefully decode the signal.22:20

nmz787_kanzure: i never personally mentioned ultra long distances... I'd be happy if it worked in a 100ft radius max... and if I could be selective with where I threw my signal/received from22:21
nmz787_i just don't want to use my mouth22:21
kanzure100 ft radius in space?22:21
nmz787_space, wherever.. as long as the media if present allows signal propagation, who cares?22:22
kanzure22:22 <@gmaxwell> kanzure: fwiw, people doing low power communications is a standard ham challenge, search string: QRP. And what you find is that the lower the power the more insane the hardware and DSP becomes, not simple 'steampunk' things like the writeup suggests. :)22:22
