Hi Sudoers:
See this RFP for City of Oakland program that Sudoroom could be
potentially qualified to apply for:
https://apps.oaklandca.gov/ContractOpportunities/Opportunity?num=389532,
the close date is Jan 16 but you might contact the contract manager to
see if the date is extended.
If nothing else: applying for this is good practice for Sudoers who are
interested in securing grants for sudoroom.
Sincerely, -Peter
sudo friends -
In my recent visits to sudoroom, I've talked about and demonstrated FPGAs
(among other things). I personally consider FPGAs to be an enabling
technology, like microcontrollers but with some key advantages.
They also have a reputation of being hard to learn.
There seems to be at least some interest in turning these chaotic discussions
into activities thoughtfully set up for teaching/learning. Maybe the
word "class" won't apply.
I'll keep this first message short, although I certainly have ideas,
at least about how to get started. I'm a huge believer in learning by doing.
I plan to be at sudoroom tonight (Dec 30), and we can have in-person discussions.
Maybe this thread can capture ideas in a less ephemeral form.
- Larry
