Are we having any monthly sudoRoom meetings? I'd like to propose one before our super late Tuesday events-- it can be short and sweet!

by Romy Ilano

Are we having any monthly sudoRoom meetings? I'd like to propose one before our super late Tuesday events-- it can be short and sweet! we could have a "tea" or a potluck and it could be cut short to about an hour. For me I'd prefer anything that isn't sitting and something as in person and not remotely run as possible! ============================= Romy Ilano romy(a)snowyla.com

Monday night ideas - Persian AI Tea - Women don't -have- to use AI but a lot fewer are knowledgeable about it than men!

by Romy Ilano

I have been reading articles that women in general use AI tools much less than men. I don't think that people =have= to use it, but at AI meetups, unless people are already research scientists, I'm just seeing a lot fewer women and non-binary folks. I guess this would be a good theme for a casual, non stressful "let's catch up with AI" (again it is not something to push people ot use these tool but to be aware) I will try to schedule some during the women and non-binary night or right before … [View More]

Suggestions for programmable display

by Juliana A

Hey Sudo Room! I'm in search of some suggestions, I'd like to build something that would give me a visual cue for when to water my plants (I have other similar needs as well, all related to how bad my memory is😂). You could say I could set an alarm on my phone, but I'd like to set a tiny display near my plants, that would go red when it's time to water my plants and green when I reset it after watering my plants. Probably need to code it to go red after 3 days or so. Need something small, I … [View More]
