transitioning items to disposal

by Captain Chesapeake

Hi all, I neatened up the soldering area and have asked members to review what was placed in the two bins to the lower left of the soldering area over the next two weeks. Once those two weeks are up and nobody claims any more items in the bin, how do I transition the stuff in the bin to it's next life? That is, recycle some, dispose of other stuff. This isn't really run of the mill "trash" to be put in the black building-wide "trash" bins for disposal in a landfill. Or maybe that is OK? Looking for some guidance here. Thanks The Cap'n

Request to have or borrow Arduino preferably with Bluetooth

by Robert Chu

Hello Sudoroom community, I have finally have a project that I would like to pursue. I would like to make Led clothes that are both reactive to sound, pressure, and default pre-program pattern mode. Aside from that... I was wondering if anybody had an extra microcontroller in their collection that potentially is just gathering dust and not being used (one preferably with bluetooth and small). Knowing nothing about these things except that they operate on magic, and probably a magic of maybe a lighter color... I will definitely dive right in, and get to haXinG. Yes I could order one, but due to my current financial disposition, I thought I would reach out to the community first. As I also searched for the microcontroller bin here at Sudoroom, and I think it is gone.

In Finland, Teaching Computer Science Without Computers - The Atlantic

by Romy Ilano

https://www-theatlantic-com.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/www.theatlantic.com/amp/… In Finland, Teaching Computer Science Without Computers - The Atlantic Feb 24, 2017 When it comes to technology, it’s hard to evaluate just how well the Finnish approach is working. Computer science isn’t covered on international tests, and it’s a relatively recent addition to the curriculum. But Liukas and others point to Finnish inventions like Linux and Nokia as evidence that the country’s education system sparks the innovation and entrepreneurship that will drive the tech-based economy of the future. And while the United States is obviously a different beast than Finland, with a host of challenges, as Liukas tells the children she meets, “Even the biggest problems in the world are just tiny problems stuck together.” Sent from my iPhone

Incident with Steeve of Sudoroom.

by Robert Chu

Hello Sudoroom & Omnicommons, Earlier in the day when nobody was in Sudoroom, I removed one table (from the dual table island adjacent to CCL). I set it up outside, as I using it as a worktable for hacking on my van). About two hours later Steven came blaring out the rear doors, yelling at me specifically saying "Fuck you" over again, and "You have taken my table". "Fuck you" You could have taken any other table, but you have taken my fucking table." For the first couple of minutes I was trying to decipher if he was serious or saying in a joking manner, then he kept yelling at me about the table. I then tried to explain to him that nobody was in Sudoroom and there are many other places to work (including the other table that is still connect to the island). He then yelled at me some more, and Max from Phat Beets came out and said they were having a meeting. He then continued to yell over Max after that was stated. I then proceed to ask Steven for proof of ownership of the table, and also how does he own it. I also then asked how does he own this table that (I'm pretty sure) is owned by Sudoroom. My arms are still shaking from the trauma that this has caused (as I do suffer from PTSD, for many quite a few big, serious reasons). I do feel these blows are a pattern of behavior that should not be ignored. As when Sudomesh was having a meeting on Sunday, Steve blew up because somebody damaged his trailer's lock, and was loud and disruptive about it for many hours during that day. There was also a time that his laptop got stolen, and he flipped and kicked a set of plastic bins in Sudoroom. This explosive behavior is hard for me to deal with because of my PTSD. The biggest thing with what has just transpired, is that the safe space policy was tremendously violated, toward me, over something that really should not have been an issue at all. I am using a table that no one was using, it did have Steven's laptop bag stored/attached to one of the feet. I think that is the bigger unsaid reason of why he is upset. His personal stuff was touched. This event happen about 1:15pm, and I am still a little unnerved. Right after this happened I talked to another Sudoroom member about advice on what to do, and was also calmed a bit as well. He recommend an email. I also plan not having any interaction with Steven, and will avoid him, and ignore him further. I don't feel safe around him.

Fwd: urgent call to action from The Village!!!! please share with your networks!

by Jenny Ryan

The Village has been informed that their first site is slated for seismic retrofit of the overpass their camp is under, requiring the area to be cleared by November. They are demanding the city find 4 new parcels for Villages. They're having a press conference on Friday and requesting endorsements from organizations - please check with your collectives and reply to this thread if you choose to support. Will discuss at Delegates Meeting tmrw. <3 ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: "anita de asis" <maowunyo(a)gmail.com> Date: Mar 8, 2018 23:54 Subject: urgent call to action from The Village!!!! please share with your networks! To: "anita de asis" <maowunyo(a)gmail.com> Cc: greeting friends, family, allies, and supporters. as you may know, The Village in Oakland was granted the land at e 12th and 23rd ave on oct 5, 2017 to manage an autonomous, community led program of temporary emergency housing and services for the duration of the shelter crisis declaration - which we estimate will be at least 6 years if not more. but in usual undermining form, the city is now forcing us to move off the land by this november 2018 because cal trans and dept of transportation will be demolishing the overpass that spans across the western side of the parcel. according to the dept of transporation, this plan has been on the books for the past 10 years due to their total incompetence, we are negotiating for four new parcels of land with the CIty Administration. And we will continue to build homes and fill this current parcel up because 1. people needs homes and 2. all our homes are designed to be forklifted. so once the city offers us new parcels of lands that we can keep for the span of the shelter crisis declaration, we will forklift them to those lands also - two of our village leaders and residents were arrested for assault and battery two weeks ago when they were defending themselves and the encampment from a known predator. please read the attached statement from the village and our legal team lead by attorney Walter Riley. we are asking that those of you with an organization, faith based institution or coalition etc please sign on to this statement as endorsers. please contact me to let me know if your group will endorse us. also, we be having a press conference and rally on the day the trial starts Friday, March 16th 8:00 am in front of wiley manuel courthouse on washington and 7th its unbelieveable how much ill will, obstruction and attempted destruction the city administration engages in to keep us from simply helping our most vulnerable neighbors. lets get homes for all, - needa
