Hi I overcame any issues I had with marketing and css / web design to make

not.
I grabbed a slideshow and you can modify it and use it...
I feel so dirty now that I used jQuery ;)

I work well when learning in clean minimalist empty areas.
Do you think it'd be kosher to carve out a clean minimalist space in the Sudoroom ?

https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Javascript
Last night I dropped by the SudoRoom JavaScript meetup.
- *mental state:* I was honestly extremely fatigued, as I have been
skipping a few hours of sleep in the past few weeks. Each hour shaved off
my sleeping schedule seemed like a tiny thing
I was really tired, so I was unable to socialize much with everyone.
Despite that it was cool just being around other people who were learning
and hacking. I was actually trying to get other work done too, and I don't
have time to go deep into javascript.
But being around the community at SudoRoom and knowing that *Oakland is
javascript cit*y <https://oaklandwiki.org/javascript> got me over my
"issues" with JavaScript.
I chatted with people, continue to be unable to get some components of
sudo-humans installed since I have a mac. (it's the canvas installation and
node gyp rebuild that's hitting me)
I'll try to get back to that later and help out.
So I just went through a tutorial while brushing up on javascript with
online learning. I've worked with node.js before, and it's a little hard
for javascript beginners to get into since it's so involved but with a
little practice I'm able to work it.
I've started using node.js for simple scripting jobs. I mostly work as an
iPhone programmer but it's nice to be able to do scripts in python and
node.js to do busy work.
I went over this tutorial, so this is the rough equivalent to a ruby on
rails app:
http://cwbuecheler.com/web/tutorials/2013/node-express-mongo/
it's nice having had the web background in ruby on rails through the rails
bridge outreach program. they're the people who first got me using git and
github and heroic several years ago before I decided to focus and learn
programming. I'm not a rails person but it's something I'd like to get
under my belt.
I don't claim to know everything but i was able to get a rudimentary mongo
db down with the tutorial's help
I learned how to push node.js out to heroku. When I first met substack and
Sudoroom i was at a hackathon and working on a node.js learning app for
kids. It was a cool hackathon and substack makes learning javascript and
node.js fun while throwing in a lot of art.
at that time I don't think heroku supported node.js so we were using
nodejitsu. but now it does, which i learned
result
so it doesn't look like much but i got to understand the inner workings of
node.js
express.js
and the various frameworks. I'm not saying that it's healthy to dive into
the frameworks first without knowing the language fundamentals (or
relearning them after you've forgotten them) but I'm also actively
reviewing stuff like inheritance, modeling objects in javascript and so on
on the free access to the treehouse learning site that i get through my
publicly funded san francisco library card.
http://arcane-savannah-2963.herokuapp.com/helloworld
i wasn't able to understand hooking up the app to the free mongodb database
on heroku. that probably isn't hard but id din't want to spend the rest of
the night looking around. it was nice and quick.
http://arcane-savannah-2963.herokuapp.com/userlist
i'm trying to focus but it's hard, so now i feel i've gotten past my very
superficial reviews of node.js
now I'm around a lot of really talented people who do a lot of work in
node.js so I can ask around, and I'm capable enough now (I hope) to do a
lot of self-learning and not have to be dependent on too much coursework or
even a book.
one of the hardest things to deal with is how quickly the languages and
frameworks update.
i'm primarily a mobile phone developers who's self taught but i'd like to
do more web stuff and back end work, since I enjoy the speed that comes
with web development. it takes a little longer to do UI on the mobile
phone, and although UI is important it's a different nature and not as
vital on a website. (someone will probably argue with me)
so although this looks pathetic: it was nice
http://arcane-savannah-2963.herokuapp.com/
nice because I was around a lot of javascript people, I got over my fear of
node.js and javascript, and i'm on my way to making small web node.js hacks
that are useful for different things <3

The cyber wizard institute starts tomorrow
Would a student a day be interested in blogging what they are learning ? It doesn't have to be long but it would highlight what's going on at Sudoroom in a positive way
Sent from my iPhone
Your delegates to the Omni have lately been me, Jenny Ryan and Matt
Senate. We would love more people to fill this role. We also need help
making decisions which represent Sudoroom. Not enough people have been
coming to meetings. Last night there were only 2-3. Other members were
doing important work throughout the building, which is great but we
still need to participate in Omni decisions. Here's some of the open
proposals to the Omni delegates:
* Finance & fundraising working groups should act quickly to buy the building
* Omni should become a 501c3
* Delegates should meet weekly again
* Global Womens Strike should become a member collective
* Black Hole should take responsibility for their fire hazards in the basement
* Use the red stage area in the basement for bike parking
* Post a clear policy about using the shower
Each of these proposals uses a consensus process - first we talk about
the issues in order to learn what everybody's needs are. Then each
collective can say yes, abstain, or block (and give a good reason).
Since few people showed up to last night's meeting, I'm not sure what
we're supposed to say. Should members resort to voting by email? It
would help if people with concerns could make them known somehow, and
people with positive feelings also. Thanks.

Hi Sudoers,
The group "Global Women's Strike" wants to become a member collective
of the Omni Commons. They are willing to start participating right
away, and postpone a decision about dedicated space. Here is more
information about them.
---------- Forwarded message ----------
From: Lori Nairne <Lori(a)allwomencount.net>
Date: Thu, Jul 16, 2015 at 4:48 PM
Subject: [omni-discuss] Potential member group proposal guidelines fr
Global Women's Strike
To: consensus(a)lists.omnicommons.org, discuss(a)lists.omnicommons.org
Hello Omni Commons. Here are the answers to your ‘potential member
group’ questions. We look forward to hearing from you.
Lori, for the Global Women’s Strike.
Potential member group proposal guidelines
In preparing a membership proposal for your group to join Omni, please
make sure to include the following points. You can answer using these
questions directly or incorporate them into a format that suits your
style.
1. Mission statement
What do you do? What happens in the world because you exist? (1-3 sentences)
Global Women’s Strike (GWS) is a grassroots multiracial women’s
network whose strategy for change is ‘Invest in caring not killing’;
we want resources to go to the caring of people and the planet, not to
war and occupation. We campaign to make visible and establish the
value of unwaged and low-waged caregiving work in the home, on the
land and in the community, including justice and survival work, and to
press for resources for that work. We organize autonomously as women,
and within GWS as women of color, LBTQ women, women with disabilities,
and sex workers, while working with men and others to attack the power
relations among us and support all our struggles against capitalism.
2. Origin and group history
How did you start? What have you done? (1-3 sentences)
The Bay Area group was founded in 1976, Women of color, lesbian women
and sex workers are in our core in the Bay Area. The US PROStitutes
Collective, which is part of the GWS network, has been organizing for
decriminalization of sex work and for resources so no one is forced
into prostitution by poverty. Legal Action for Women has provided
legal services to women and some men, including from a converted bus
in the Tenderloin and Mission in SF. Queer Strike (formerly Wages Due
Lesbians) was founded in 1978, organized a Lesbian Mothers Day in the
Park in 1984, opposed police violence in the LGBT clubs, and most
recently helped the campaign to get Chelsea Manning honored by SF
Pride. We do ongoing work supporting the grassroots movements for
justice vs. occupation in Haiti and Palestine. We are campaigning for
a living wage for mothers and other caregivers.
3. Participation in the Omni
Why are you interested in becoming a member? How does your group
intend to use the space? What are your needs? (less than 5 sentences)
We have had a good experience organizing several meetings as well as a
film screening at the Omni. We are interested in becoming a member
because it is clear that the Omni is a movement space and, especially
given the difficult times, it is vital for those of us at the
grassroots to be able to share space and ideas, and to support each
other. We want to be part of building and promoting the work of the
Omni. We need space for our work on projects and campaigns, meetings,
self-help legal casework. Our needs are for a small space for our own
meetings and projects, and use of larger collective space for meetings
and events.
4. Group finances and paying rent
What does your group do to support itself financially? What is your
best plan for contributing your potential share of rent to the Omni?
(less than 5 sentences)
We are a volunteer-run organization, and we depend on in-kind and
other donations to function. Our core members make regular monthly
contributions. We have applied for and received grants for specific
projects. We would continue to seek funding from our supporters as
well as grants, and to organize fundraising film screenings and other
events to contribute towards rent. We get speaking fees at times from
colleges, and we sell literature, t-shirts, and accessories related to
our campaigning. We can contribute $300 per month to the Omni and we
are planning to help raise more funds as we can and as we work
together.
5. Dedicated space
If your group would like some dedicated space at the Omni, what square
footage and what features are you looking for? Which specific rooms do
you feel might be suitable? (1-3 sentences)
If possible, we would prefer a small secure office space where we can
keep a computer and other equipment, and hold a desk, table, and some
chairs. This would provide some privacy especially for the casework
we do, and for phone and Skype meetings and regular center work.
6. Other contributions to the Omni
This question should inspire some imagination. We are exploring ideas
to pay rent and purchase the building in the long-term. The basic plan
is for each group paying a share of rent. Potential plans include
groups sharing profit from their activities, producing Omni events,
and booking other events. What is the best-case scenario for using the
Omni space to further support your group? (less than 5 sentences)
We had a successful screening at the Omni where we raised funds for
the Black Coalition Fighting Back Serial Murders and brought in an
audience that packed the space and was overwhelmingly people of color.
We see organizing other films and varied events to not only fundraise
but also to bring people who might not yet know of the Omni or connect
with it. One idea we have discussed with Women of Color in the Global
Women’s Strike is to have a Rock Against Racism event. This would make
people more aware of the work the Omni is doing as a
community/communal space. We agree with profit sharing from our
activities. In using the Omni space we will expand the reach of the
Omni as well as our campaigning work, and will help build the movement
for change.
7. Additional
Is there any other information that you think would be useful for us
to know about your group? (as many sentences as you like)
We fought against welfare reform which was brought in by Clinton and
has increased poverty and homelessness for women, children and men. We
recently launched an international petition campaign demanding a
Living Wage for Mothers and other Caregivers and are involved in an
effort to support legislation in Congress to attack women and
children’s' poverty.
We have a justice work focus. US PROS been involved in legal case work
with sex workers in the Bay Area, including Oakland, and recently on
winning the removal of a discriminatory regulation in the California
Victims Compensation Program, which denied compensation for sex
workers who have been raped and brutalized. In SF we have a history of
organizing against violence against sex workers – from police violence
and racism to serial murders. For example, when a serial rapist was
targeting women in the Mission in San Francisco, he was arrested
because sex workers came forward and identified him, but a judge let
him out on bail; we became involved in a 2-year campaign monitoring
the court, and ultimately he was convicted. It is our view that women
should be protected, though we oppose the death penalty, support
closing all SHUs, and fight against torture conditions in prison. web:
http://uspros.net/
We work with men who are part of Payday men's network web:
http://refusingtokill.net/ We are (and have always been) anti-sexist,
anti-racist, anti-homophobic, anti-every discrimination and
anti-capitalist. We want an end to the capitalist market which is
ruining our lives, health, and the earth.
Maximum two per customer.
This is not quite as good as our recommended TP-Link N600 (internal instead
of external antennas) but it's $10 instead of $40 sooo...
Actually if a few people are willing to buy the maximum two per customer
the mesh will buy them from you.

Hi,
I'm a hacker and computer science student from Switzerland. I'm also a
member of Fixme, a hackerspace in Lausanne.
I'm planning to come to San Fransisco from August 6 to August 9 with two
friends. They are also CS students.
We're looking to a place to lodge and everything is crazily expensive,
especially for some students. Do you have any ideas, any contacts or any
spare couches to help us?
Happy Hacking,

PS: I just saw you need money to survive. I gave you $20, hope it will help!

We need 44 of them. Come help please.
It's holes through 2-inch joists in the ballroom mezzanine floor, for

Hello Sudoers and Noisebridgers,
There are about six Cisco switches that I have been asked if we are
interested on getting as donation.
The model I can read off the attached photo is:
4- Cisco Catalyst 3750 24 Ports - 2x1G SFP (transceivers not included)
http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/switches/lan/catalyst3750/hardware/qui…
The others 2 that I think may be:
1- Cisco Catalyst 3550 24 Ports - 2x1G SFP (fiber transceivers not included)
1- Cisco Catalyst 2850 24 Ports - 2x1G (fiber transceivers not included)
If interested please let me know ASAP, since I have to reply to the person
offering this items.
He has been waiting for three weeks or so; for us to answer. He emailed me
today again.
Thanks,
Daniel A.

Hi all,
This Wednesday evening, from 7-10pm in the ballroom, Alternative Exposure
will be holding a grant information session for new applicants. If anyone
is interested in attending to give a short summary of what your group's
been up to since being funded by Alternative Exposure, it would be highly
appreciated! Also come if you're interested in applying for a SoEx grant -
they love the Omni and have been really supportive of our initiatives.
Grants are awarded to projects and organizations that do not yet have
federal 501c3 status. CyberWizard? Sudomesh? Omni itself??
via
https://omnicommons.org/calendar/events/alternative-exposure-grant-informat…
-
"Join the Southern Exposure team to learn more about Round 9 of Alternative
Exposure, a grant that has helped scores of initiatives like those that
comprise The Omni. In fact, several Omni groups have received awards from
Alternative Exposure, including Birdhouse, Material Print Machine,
Publication Studio, Public School, and Sudo Room! Join us for a night chock
full info about how best to secure funding for your independent artist
project!
Note: Attending an information session is encouraged but not required to
apply for an Alternative Exposure grant. Information sessions are free and

Location:
Second floor computer area.
Issue:
HP Switch at the second floor turns off, often.
Temporary Correction:
Push the extension cable connector into the outlet (under the table) and it
will turn back on.
Situation:
This regular issue can be annoying to the end user, due that computers will
loose internet connection.
Marc J. mentioned that perhaps power for the switch should come from the
light fixture nearby, and remove the extension cord that is currently
feeding the switch.
Matt S. also had similar experience, he mentioned to me last week.
Call:
Can someone with electricity knowledge go there and check/fix the situation?
Additional Note:
I have not swap switches to make sure that is not the switch.
I suggest that if the main switch in the server area is Cisco, so then to
have same maker at the second floor. Just to have same routing protocols
between the two.
Also, I recall that several months ago I cleaned up the configuration of a
couple of Cisco switches and they are stored in the two post switch rack in
the server area. Feel free to take one of them, if needed.
Many thanks in advance, and please reply to this list if you will/worked on
this ticket. :)

Hey now that we are preparing for cyberwizard, and there are people
learning, I'd like to point out that the monitors long the wall are
underutizlied.
we have about 12-15 ... I'll write a blog post about this with
instructions. It seems really common sense but isn't always. (unless
someone else does!)
a 2nd monitor is great for people who are learning to code, especially if
they have an IDE open and are using videos.
Guests and members visiting sudoroom should bring special outlets for their
computers. I'm unsure what chrome or linux folks use - I have a mac so I
have my own setup.

We had another experimental session involving fitness and art at the omni upstairs from Sudoroom
It went over my Head at some parts but there was a redefinition of fitness : fitness is not only about body fat but also mental health and the ability to survive and reproduce in rapidly changing environments
We taped alternate eyes to our own and spent most of the session with eyes closed as we imagined alternate realities .
Instead if an aerobics or spinning class we listened to a computer discussing the future and imagining sensations of augmented realities
The future was discussed as we stretched and writhed and the need to find new realties and ways of being !
As you know the omni Collective is a unique place. Many events that occur here wouldn't happen anywhere else
While I was doing fitness I ran into moms and dads preparing a benefit for Muhammad and emad at the solidarity Cafe. I think they're activists who got into trouble 😢
https://instagram.com/p/5nP0EUIUtj/
There are kids playing in the omni ballroom and people chatting in Spanish and folks of all religions doing bake sales to help these guys
It's nice ! Thanks omni and Sudoroom. ! Oakland needs you
