thestringpuller: BFL let
their PR get out of hand and
they are probably blowing money on expensive cars and shit
thestringpuller: the design needs
to be done before announcement
time and
the fabrication needs
to be happening before a ship date is even conceived
Anduck: remember,
they need
to make asics, put
them on a board and program
the whole
thing for it

the first one be ready?
mircea_popescu: thestringpuller i meant in
the "o, what will
they

they say will
they agree" sense.

that.
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: how do we get 1bn into BTC besides robbing someone?
this is
taking
too long

three days
jurov: thestringpuller, was it you who bitched about some rich friends
that can't be convinced

Bugpowder: not sure if
that would be an issue with commerical ASICs
though
Bugpowder: balancing
the stress levels of each layer
Bugpowder: just getting
the probes off
the chip and flat
took over a year of refinement
Bugpowder: I have used
them and also done some custom design work in house
Bugpowder: you can record from many sites in
the awake behaving brain
Bugpowder: the most interesting stuff you can do with
the MEAs is studying retina
Bugpowder: and brain slices are dying and have no connections
to other areas
Bugpowder: There aren't
that many cool applications for
these arrays in a dish
though.
the brain isn't flat
mircea_popescu: lmao on
the interwebs all
the dogs don't know
they're dogs anymore.

think sequencing is now like 98% accurate
jcpham: i don't actually have
to contribute
to absorb it all
iz: yeah, a while ago
they made news when lockheed bought one of
their
things
jcpham: and
the
technical discussion was basically like " it isn't a quantum computer"
