education heads @ sudoroom - anyone reach out to Oakland Tech?

by Romy Ilano

Hey, are there any education heads at SudoRoom? has anyone at SudoRoom reached out to Oakland Tech? Don't they study electronics and mechanical stuff? Wouldn't hanging around the shop at SudoRoom be a cool way to augment the apprenticeship program and inject a little theroy and science magic? http://www.npr.org/2014/10/23/358238891/what-the-new-factory-worker-should-… ============================= Romy Ilano romy(a)snowyla.com

Old Hardware Question

by Samir Faci

I have an old ZAReason laptop (ie. no Windows Lisc) that's been probably a bit too abused to sell off, but I wanted to know if anyone knew of any places in the area that might benefit from it? I was looking for something along the lines of http://www.freegeek.org/ though I don't think there's anything like that (which I'm aware of ) in the bay. Main reason I like freegeek is that it teaches others about computers (educating,teaching and learning) and no matter what shape the laptop/desktop is … [View More]

by Jake

Do you want to learn how to make a circuitboard design with FOSS (Free and Open Source Software) at sudoroom with me?

Intro and Interest!

by Aman Ahuja

It's been a long time since I've worked on hardware -- these days I do computational math and stats as a consultant. I'm also … [View More]
