# Summary of #hplusroadmap IRC Log (September 20, 2011)

* A link was shared about criminals using 3D printers to create ATM skimmers, demonstrating early concerns about malicious applications of additive manufacturing technology.

* Discussion of propranolol, a beta blocker banned in the Olympics for its use in controlling social anxiety and tremors, suggesting interest in cognitive enhancement and performance drugs.

* Fenn mentioned working on "office robotics for GitHub" and considering Kickstarter as an alternative funding method, reflecting early maker/robotics culture in tech companies.

* References to "the programmer's stone" and building "borg civilization" indicate interest in cognitive frameworks and transhumanist concepts of human-machine integration.

* A technical exchange about ESOLID software showed ongoing work with computational geometry tools, including code patches and boolean operations on 3D solids.

* Discussion of declassified HEXAGON satellite technology that used film return capsules caught mid-air, showing interest in advanced aerospace engineering and surveillance systems.

* Fenn expressed interest in neuroscience learning tools with "incremental reward structure," suggesting early thinking about gamification of complex scientific education.

* Reference to "On Intelligence" (likely Jeff Hawkins' book) and "buildfreedom.com/content/reciprocality/thirdage/" indicates shared interest in cognitive science and alternative social frameworks.
