| kristianpaul | i just need a tilling window manager with same screen keybiding and that allow me to take a session remotelly just like screen does, is too much ask? :-) | 00:09 |
|---|---|---|
| roh | uh.. spares of spacers... mmmh. no clue to be fair. i had every single one in my hand and checked the outer threading.. | 02:22 |
| roh | not sure anymore if i checked the inner one | 02:23 |
| wolfspraul | roh: funny, eh? | 02:29 |
| wolfspraul | it's amazing that over time (with enough volume) - EVERY POSSIBLE thing that can go wrong will go wrong :-) | 02:29 |
| roh | true | 02:36 |
| roh | had some weird stuff in screw-bags already | 02:36 |
| roh | some didnt even look like a precursor to a screw | 02:37 |
| wpwrak | pessulus neanderthalensis ? | 02:52 |
| wpwrak | or, rather, clavus neanderthalensis. (since it's not a screw yet) | 02:53 |
| wpwrak | the current corruption run is nice: 1452 cycles and counting. it's nice because it makes the empirical distribution fit an exponential distribution better. i'm beginning to see order in the chaos :) | 02:55 |
| wolfspraul | wpwrak: and what's your gut feeling now? | 03:02 |
| wpwrak | it's still too early to tell. this is the statistical baseline. with that, i can now see if changes have a quantitative effect. | 03:15 |
| wpwrak | one problem with getting the statistical baseline is that the probability of a cycle causing a corruption is about 1/500. and each cycle takes about 80 seconds (in the conservative configuration). so it takes a lot of time to accumulate enough data. now i have 12 data points, which already produces a reasonably clear curve. | 03:19 |
| wpwrak | so once i'm done with the new scheduler, i'll switch to a new test pattern and see what happens | 03:19 |
| wolfspraul | hmm | 03:25 |
| wolfspraul | ok :-) | 03:25 |
| wolfspraul | not much I can say I guess | 03:25 |
| wolfspraul | Adam keeps fixing & testing | 03:26 |
| wpwrak | in any case, whatever i find, this won't have much effect on rc3. when do you think work on rc4 will start ? | 03:35 |
| lekernel | hi | 09:33 |
| lekernel | was at PWL yesterday http://tubedevices.com/alek/pwl/pwl.htm | 09:33 |
| lekernel | it was awesome :) | 09:33 |
| lekernel | I will post some more details and pictures soon ... | 09:33 |
| lekernel | azonenberg, you will like this :) | 09:34 |
| wolfspraul | lekernel: yes please | 09:48 |
| wolfspraul | :-) | 09:48 |
| wolfspraul | also looking forward to that very much | 09:48 |
| lekernel | pictures here: http://lekernel.net/PWL/ | 09:49 |
| lekernel | he even made me a (fully working) souvenir triode in front of me :) | 09:49 |
| lekernel | http://lekernel.net/PWL/19-09-11_1838.jpg that's the triode being tested (and degassed) | 09:50 |
| lekernel | http://lekernel.net/PWL/20-09-11_1013.jpg | 09:50 |
| lekernel | after sealing and socketing | 09:50 |
| lekernel | I will post the full process | 09:51 |
| lekernel | most of it is DIY and made of junk parts | 09:52 |
| lekernel | I particularly liked the spot welding machine based on a rewound microwave oven transformer, and the tube spinner (to melt the glass uniformly) based on a vinyl turntable | 09:55 |
| lekernel | pictures from the masala concert: http://wyslijto.pl/plik/n429snbcme346248 (I still have not opened them ...) | 10:02 |
| lekernel | it's ok to put them on the website, just mention "by IKA and Masala / CC Global Party Warsaw / Poland / 17.09.2011" | 10:04 |
| lekernel | (they're cc by sa) | 10:04 |
| roh | lekernel: cool stuff | 10:06 |
| roh | is does it require expensive equipment? (making valves) | 10:06 |
| lekernel | the most expensive part is probably the diffusion pump, but he got one from the trash of a research institute | 10:07 |
| roh | ok.. thats the one for the vaccuum? | 10:08 |
| lekernel | yes | 10:11 |
| lekernel | and you need a primary rotary pump as well, but those are around 200-400E new | 10:11 |

| larsc | are there any good metrics for comparing the sizes of different cores? | 17:54 |
