# Summary of ##hplusroadmap IRC Log (September 16, 2015)

• Discussion of optogenetics applications, specifically the technical feasibility of multichannel cochlear implants based on flexible μLED arrays and the development of "optrode" arrays with microlithic fabrication technologies that could replace electrons with photons to stimulate nerves.

• Conversation about organizing a large collection (2000+) of Bitcoin technology bookmarks into a usable format, with debate about whether to use mind maps, concept maps, tag-based organization, or chronological lists with summaries.

• Reference to "Signatures of correct computation" paper (http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/download?doi=10.1.1.303.8178&rep=rep1&type=pdf) related to cryptographic verification.

• Discussion of low-cost electronics testing equipment, including a 500MHz 32-channel logic analyzer clone of Saleae devices and spectrometers available on eBay/AliExpress, with considerations about their RS232 protocols.

• Brief philosophical discussion about telepathy in fiction and how modern surveillance and data collection might enable something functionally similar to "mind reading" through comprehensive knowledge of a person's stimuli exposure.
