there have been members whose windows have been smashed - my first suggestion is to tell guests to park on the opposite side of Telegraph in the more ritzy residential neighborhood and walk 10-15 minutes have people had luck in the Macarthur bart parking structure how about parking by the piedmont police dept and then taking a rideshare or bikeshare? I have a guest who's coming who is driving all the way from Sonoma! ============================= Romy Ilano romy(a)snowyla.com

Tonight: Greet for Hardware and SoftWEAR Hack Night /Fixit Clinic tonight?

by Peter Mui

Hi Sudoers: This week we have one person (Lily) signed up with a bunch of stuff (see https://bit.ly/itemcheckins) and we typically get lots of walk-ins too. Typically on Tuesdays we have lots of new people visiting the space and it can be intimidating if you don't know anyone and don't know where to go and what to do. So can someone try to arrive early say, 7:30 or so to greet people for Sudoroom or sewing downstairs in the Media Lab and get them started on their projects? Extra Credit: 1) confirm that the VOIP phone number 442-252-8386 is working by dialing it 2) put the Fixit Clinic sandwich sign out on the sidewalk. Many thanks, -Peter

August 1st - Hackerspaces Roaming art walk starting at the Kara Walker exhibit at SF Moma

by Romy Ilano

We are announcing a new "let's get out of the room" event where we walk around art galleries exploring the math in art. This is a collaboration between Noisebridge and SudoRoom, but since we are on lu.ma now we are attracting people who I think are not part of our hackerspaces. This is a nice way to get folks to learn about hacking! Sign up at: https://lu.ma/vlirnlc8 https://sudoroom.org/events/hackerspace-roaming-art-walk-walking-meetup/ *Theme: Where is the math in art? <https://sudoroom.org/events/hackerspace-roaming-art-walk-walking-meetup/>* SudoRoom <https://sudoroom.org/morning-math-telenovela-parte-1-precision-globes-and-t…> and Noisebridge <https://www.noisebridge.net/> hackerspaces will be converging on the SF Moma during *Downtown San Francisco First Thursdays <https://www.dftsf.com/>* to interweave math, life, art and more! Schedule We'll begin at the SF Moma the new Kara Walker installation Fortuna and the Immortality Garden (Machine) <https://www.sfmoma.org/exhibition/fortuna-and-the-immortality-garden-machin…>, which is in part inspired by science fiction writer Octavia Butler's novels *Parable of the Sower <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parable_of_the_Sower_(novel)>* and *Parable of the Talents <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parable_of_the_Talents_(novel)>*. The piece is on view at the SF Moma, which is is free for Bay Area residents <https://www.sfmoma.org/free-days/#first-thursdays>on the first Thursday each month! We could start by talking about how *mathematical ways of thinking* resemble and differ from the "Earthseed" philosophy <https://godischange.org/the-book-of-the-living/> from the* Parable* books, which the narrator at one point describes like this: *I’m trying to speak—to write—the truth. I’m trying to be clear. I’m not interested in being fancy, or even original. Clarity and truth will be plenty, if I can only achieve them. If it happens that there are other people outside somewhere preaching my truth, I’ll join them. Otherwise, I’ll adapt where I must, take what opportunities I can find or make, hang on, gather students, and teach.* [image: image.jpeg] ============================= Romy Ilano romy(a)snowyla.com

What if we could make science and tech exhibits for adults not kids at SudoRoom

by Romy Ilano

Due to funding there are no good science museums in the Bay Area or California in general that are fun for adults! They are mostly geared to kids and parents for some reason I propose we create mini science exhibits aimed at people 18 and above! Let’s create the science museum exhibit that is not geared for teaching kids’ let’s make it as complex or simple as we want it to be … just make it for adults !

by Romy Ilano

https://lu.ma/c4oqkxnv https://sudoroom.org/events/women-nonbinary-hack-night-2024-07-22/ This evening we'll have a cool guest, Jade, who will talk about some fun advanced topics on the *Rust Programming Language* with our wonderful speaker Jade, a passionate Rust enthusiast! On RUST This evening we'll do a deep dive on* algebraic data types*! ADTs are a hot new computer science concept *("new" == from the '90s )* which Rust uses to make its representation of data... *Plan for the evening:* *T*alk about the theory of algebraic data types (struct as product, tagged enum as sum) Visual learning for basic sum types (Option and Result) Let's put it into practice! Group design effort for a Result for an example application. We guarantee it will be fun even if you aren't a big rust programmer. See https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Rust <https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Rust> *also:** You can also hack on stuff like audio sound engineering, sewing, or other cool things during and after the talk!

Greet for Hardware and SoftWEAR Hack Night /Fixit Clinic tonight?

by Peter Mui

Hi Sudoers: We successfully repaired Joshua’s air mattress last week at Hardware and SoftWEAR Hack Night! This week we have one person signed up with an internet radio (see https://bit.ly/itemcheckins) and we typically get lots of walk-ins too. Typically on Tuesdays we have lots of new people visiting the space and it can be intimidating if you don't know anyone and don't know where to go and what to do. So can someone try to arrive early say, 7:30 or so to greet people for Sudoroom or sewing downstairs in the Media Lab and get them started on their projects? Extra Credit: 1) confirm that the VOIP phone number 442-252-8386 is working by dialing it 2) put the Fixit Clinic sandwich sign out on the sidewalk. Many thanks, -Peter

Thinking about switching to lu.ma for the meetup.com page what do you think?

by Romy Ilano

https://lu.ma/2llyntn4 The meetup.com page is costing $45 a month... not sure how useful it is compared to lu.ma, which most other meetups are switching to. What do you guys think? I'm probably going to turn off the meetup.com page and go there, in the bay area it's all lu.ma lately since they have a free tier. we should be putting our main meetup stuff on our wordpress blog and not rely on a platform... ============================= Romy Ilano romy(a)snowyla.com

Do we have a community cookbook?

by Romy Ilano

During the Depression era the government funded journalists, artists and photographers etc. to document how americans ate at the time. One of the things they noted was the community cookbook, which was a book of community recipes that were gathered and published, its proceeds donated to a charity. https://whatamericaate.org/single.essay.php?kid=164-593-1 Do we have a kind of cookbook? Why don't we assemble one. The recipes don't have to be for food. It can also be "If you want to make the 1980s robot at SudoRoom work you have to kick it several times" =D we could put it up on gumroad ============================= Romy Ilano romy(a)snowyla.com
