That is - at that point, a new/better lease can be negotiated. Or not, if so decided. While the details on what a co-op purchase would look like still have to be hammered out in detail, it was my understanding from George that he was interested in an arrangement that would include selling off equity in that portion. Different organizations would put up money in their collective shares and that wing would be organized as a co-op with the different organizational/individual owners taking part in the decision-making of managing the building.? >>>>>> >>>>>> and from Hol's email, (archived here): >>>>>> ?I think we've been fortunate to have people (Eddan, Matt, Zach) put their name down in the lease and assume a degree of liability for operations. I interpret the notice to George as a move that is not binding on sudo room in any way, but one that A) allows Eddan and presumably Matt to relinquish their "doing business as" status to a better defined group, B) informs George that his behavior toward tenants will not be met with guaranteed continued tenancy, and C) puts a fire under all of our asses to solve the space/access/community issues elegantly, either by finding a new space or by coming to an agreement and a way forward at 2141. These are just my thoughts, with a grain of salt on specifics as I haven't been going to general meetings recently but I guess it's time to start doing that again since this is a matter of great importance.? >>>>>> >>>>>> >>>>>>> On Tue, Oct 1, 2013 at 4:05 PM, rhodey <rhodey(a)anhonesteffort.org> wrote: >>>>>>> All that myself and others have asked of you is that you provide a bit >>>>>>> more detailed information about the discussion you had while terminating >>>>>>> the lease.

Tomorrow: Bayesian Inference for Everyone: The (best) Probability of Causes

by Sam Tepper

Hello Sudoers, *T**omorrow* at *6:30*, you are invited to join us, at the fabled 'Noisebridge', as we investigate how to make better inferences using Bayesian heuristics and algorithms. You are welcome to bring your own data, qnd/or you can take part in designing and implementing your very own Bayesian spam filter on the infamous noisebridge-discuss archive. If you have your own project, you are encouraged to talk about it and/or work on it as well. part of our machine learning <https://noisebridge.net/wiki/Machine_Learning> series. Food, beer, and cheer are all greatly appreciated.

People's Community Market

by Julio Rios

FYI: per a previous thread, I got some information on the topic of transitioning to employee ownership for those that are interested. The plan is pretty thorough, but it is a draft, and it's not a cooperative really. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Brahm Ahmadi <brahm(a)peoplescommunitymarket.com> Date: Thu, Feb 6, 2014 at 9:26 AM Subject: Re: Buy Shares page error To: Julio Rios <julio.rios(a)gmail.com> Hi Julio- Our plan is to become an ESOP - Employee Stock Ownership Plan. We've been working with the National Center for Employee Ownership (NCEO) to develop a multi-stage process for becoming an ESOP and engendering an employee culture of training and engagement in running the business. The current draft of our plan is attached. An ESOP is not a cooperative. ESOPs typically have a management structure and a board of directors that make a majority of operational decisions. Cooperatives typically run on a one-member, one-vote structure in which business decisions are made by everyone. Most ESOPs are the result of a conversion, typically when the founder wants to exit from the business. You can get more information about ESOPs at this link on NCEO's website: https://www.nceo.org/articles/employee-ownership-esop-united-states. Full disclosure: NCEO is an investor in our business.

Anti-Displacement Hack Nights at LOL! Resistance is Fertile! (for fwding)

by Praveen Sinha

Hello Hackers, Activists, Designers, Policy Folks, Neighbors! Our metropolis is under going rapid transformation. From mass evictions in the Mission, predatory real estate companies in West Oakland, targeted campaigns to make whole neighborhoods safe for the ultra wealthy, massive income inequality in the streets, and systemic race, gender and class gaps in the tech community. LOL is holding an open hack night for anti-displacement projects at 7pm each Thursday this month. There are a lot of ongoing projects that need mapping, visualization, and backend development -- One of which is aiming to plug holes in the Ellis Act that is being debated in Sacramento right now. In addition, we need creative ideas in how data and information can translate to impact on the streets. If you are good with stats, numbers, js/flash/lamp/rails/whatever stack you like, making pretty pictures, or knowing what on the ground need, come by! If you have expertise in housing policy or community development policy also come by! If you or someone you know is facing displacement, come on by as a concerned community member! One of our main projects that needs love is the Anti Eviction Mapping Project, which is now making the rounds in Sacramento in order to provide policy changes to the Ellis Act, and data visualization people can be extra helpful here. Liberating Ourselves Locally (LOL) is a gender balanced, person of color led hack/collab/DIO space in East Oakland. 1234 23rd Ave, Oakland CA. http://oaklandmakerspace.wordpress.com/directions/ Look forward to seeing you! If you have any questions, please contact myself or erinmcel at gmail dot com

Shut down the PanOAKticon! - Litigation Fund

by eddan.com

Are you looking for something you can do that is meaningful on this TheDayWeFightBack? Please donate to our Spy Center Litigation Fund. http://www.indiegogo.com/projects/spy-center-litigation In the spirit of thinking globally and acting locally, the Oakland Privacy Working Group would be most grateful for your help in shutting down the Oakland Domain Awareness Center. We need a show of support - small ($3-10) donations - in order to proceed with our lawsuit against the City of Oakland to stop the National Surveillance State from building a Fusion Center in our own backyard (on Martin Luther King, Jr. Way!). We have successfully pushed back on the City Council's awarding of the Department of Homeland Security grant contract for months. And while we've narrowed the time period in which the contractor would have to complete the job significantly (they have until the end of May), the City Council may very well vote to go with the proposed contractor at the Feb. 18 City Council meeting, despite the evidence we've brought that Schneider Electric is in violation of Oakland Nuclear Free Zone Ordinance. The latest word is that the City Council will waive this stop-gap feature of our city's laws despite knowing all that we know about the NSA, the OPD, and surveillance backdoors in our neighborhood. There may be nothing left to stop this runaway surveillance train other than suing our city government to cease and desist from building their PanOAKticon - the Nuclear option. It is much more important that you give than how much - http://www.indiegogo.com/projects/spy-center-litigation. There are several other ways in which the Oakland Privacy Group is going all out to stop this thing before it's too late. You can find out more at http://oaklandprivacy.wordpress.com/. Join the activist planning and discussion on our listserv at oaklandprivacyworkinggroup-subscribe(a)lists.riseup.net. Retweet a message from https://twitter.com/OaklandPrivacy to help #StopTheDAC. Come to the Feb. 18 City Council meeting to show our politicians that we're not joking around when we fight back. Sign the petition at http://www.change.org/petitions/the-mayor-and-city-council-of-oakland-ca-do…. Encourage your friends and colleagues to write letters to the editor and blog posts about how mass surveillance will effect all of our overlapping communities. Thanks for your attention. The text from the IndieGoGo page is below. --- http://www.indiegogo.com/projects/spy-center-litigation “We are the last free people. We are the people that have the last chance to act.” – Julian Assange. While we are immensely grateful for larger donations, IT IS JUST AS IMPORTANT that we have MANY small donations, $3, $5, $10 from thousands of grassroots activists, in order to show broad support. The Impact THIS AFFECTS ALL OF US. If you believe in freedom of speech, of the press, of assembly, of the right to be anonymous in speech, freedom of thought, if you believe that we should be free from warrantless searches and seizures, that all are entitled to due process, that we are innocent until proven guilty, that probable cause is needed, if you value the hard fought freedoms won in the American Revolution, the Civil Rights and Free Speech Movements, and all those who lost their lives defending these rights, please help us. This fight is not only about the residents of Oakland, California as it will directly impact all of us, allowing further spying on US citizens. The proposed Oakland spy center at issue in this litigation will conduct massive full-time surveillance and share information broadly, linking to various NSA and FBI intelligence centers and even private contractors. Data sharing platforms are being incorporated and further developed per project documents. The Dept. of Homeland Security has funded 78 of these 'fusion centers' around the country. We Are Fighting Back The Oakland Privacy Working Group, a coalition of civil liberties minded individuals, in concert with other civil liberties groups, seeks through litigation to prevent the awarding of a contract for Phase 2 implementation of a Dept. of Homeland Security funded spy center within the city limits of Oakland known as the Domain Awareness Center. Because of the expiring nature of the federal grants funding the spy center, there is a strong likelihood that disqualification of the remaining bidders will halt the entire project due to loss of funding. What We Need We are asking you, the larger community, for $10,000 for the first phase of litigation, an injunction and lawsuit against the City of Oakland to prevent the award of the Phase 2 contract, and dismantling of the work completed under the Phase 1 contract. We are anticipating a protracted battle not only on the Phase 2 contract itself, but the larger overall battle of civil liberties infringement inherent in this project. We have a real chance at turning back the military-industrial-intelligence complex from daily intrusion and spying into our lives. With just a $5 donation, it only takes 2,000 people to make a loud statement that spying on citizens will not be tolerated! The Snowden revelations make clear that unless the intelligence community is forced to comply with the law, it surely will not. Other Ways You Can Help Whether you donate or not, please sign this petition: http://tinyurl.com/kdod9wt If your are part of a civil liberties group and interested in helping spread the word and participating, please contact us at oaklandprivacy(a)gmail.com If you're an experienced litigator and licensed to practice in California, we can use your help on our trial team.

by Craig Rouskey

Hello Sudoers! Come Plerk (play + werk!) it out in the DIY Molecular Cloning Class tonight at SudoRoom (6:30p-8p -at the latest). Throughout the course of the entire class we will be isolating genes from the banana genome, cloning them into expression vectors and purifying protein our banana proteins. It's a multi-month process that is going to be great! Tonight (class 2) we will be covering the following: (1) DNA discussion review (2) performing DNA extractions from banana and discussing the chemical processes happening at each step (3) Digesting our DNA with DNAse enzyme (community sourced :-) ), (4) Analyzing our samples on Agarose gel (5) Visualizing our cut DNA.

Does the sudoroom still have occasional events to fix electronics?

by Ed Biow

I didn't see one on the calendar, but seem to recall seeing something like that in the past. A few months ago I laid out $180 to but something called a Ion Blockrocker Bluetooth to have a portable amplifier/speaker/microphone thingie for events. It was more or less adequate, but shortly after I got it the 3.5mm IN jack became unseated and now it doesn't make an adequate connection. I can still access the device by bluetooth, but not every device has bluetooth and bluetooth can be a bit finicky during an event, as we found out at the Anti-DAC event last Tuesday.. It looks like it has screws so disassembling it would probably be easy, but I have about as much dexterity in my fingers as most folks have in their toes and am not sure I would be able to figure out how to re-seat the little audio-in aperture. I guess I could RMA the thing, but it is big, it would probably cost me $40 to send it back. http://www.ionaudio.com/products/details/blockrockerbluetooth Anyway, if anyone feels like having a crack at it, I'd be happy to schlep it to the room.

"New" Sudo bike & redux of old Sudo bike, take one

by Chris Bee

And...action- [image: Inline image 1] IMO this is the ideal loaner bike- it's simple, light, not too nice but not a total piece of crap, and with a couple quick adjustments damn near anyone can ride it safely and comfortably. Best of all, I can build something like this out of junk with basic tools in a few hours so it's not a huge loss if it doesn't come back. Which brings me to my next point. I think loaning bikes out is a great idea, as long as there's an understanding that the the word "loan" implies that the item in question will be returned in the same condition (or close to it) in a timely fashion. Sudoers are pretty good about this...but when non-members walk out of here with bikes without leaving some kind of contact info or a name or a clear idea of what the terms of the loan are, it's even odds as to whether it will come back in working order. So as a hedge against any future misunderstandings, we should at least write down a name, how we can get a hold of them, and how long they need the bike for. This can be on a discretionary basis but I can't think of a reason why we shouldn't keep track of who has what. Anyway...the old sudo bike has been slightly revised- longer seatpost, new bars and stem so there's a shorter reach on the bars, new fender/front and rear light, broken and/or unnecessary crap removed, brakes kind of work now...to go beyond making it safe (safer?) and rideable would be like polishing a turd, and I need less of that in my life right now. I took a pic but my antique iPhone doesn't want to give it up. Selah. So they're here if you want to try them out. Enjoy. -chrisbee

[Important] Membership Update Needed

by Jenny Ryan

Hi sudo! We've been in the process of more clearly defining membership, which will in turn help to clarify our monthly income as well as access issues. *If you consider yourself to be a current member of Sudo Room, please email me the following details:* *Name (can be pseudonymous) *Contact Email *Monthly contribution [as per the new $10 minimum amendment<https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Articles_of_Association#Sub-Section_3.4.3_Dues> ] *Form of payment [cash, check, Gittip, WePay] *Optional: Core project(s) / group(s) you're working on / with. I'm setting up a SeltzerCRM instance to track door access codes and donations and remind members to pay if they're past due. Once we have you as a registered, dues-paying member in the system, the next step will be assigning access codes. *Sudo Room remains, as always, open to anyone to drop in so long as a member is present! Becoming a member means you get your own keycode and the ability to vote on consensus items.* For those unable to pay the $10 minimum, please propose a worktrade alternative. We've recently added a New Members component to the weekly meeting agenda, so we can acknowledge new members and work out the details of their contributions then. I'm going to propose that once a month during this section, we go through work/trade memberships and check that a given project/task has been happening as proposed. Work/trade tasks might include: * Holding a regular class or workshop (eg; 3D Tuesdays, Today We Learned) * Maintaining infrastructure (such as the door rpi, the network, web presence) * Cleaning (especially the common space kitchen, floor and furniture) * Organizing the Room of Stuff * Writing blog posts (kudos to Romy, who's been super prolific this year already!) * Think of anything that would positively contribute to the space and/or community! Cheers, /jnny

Feel good clipping of the day: 101 women artists added to WikiPedia

by Romy Ilano

Just when you think the world is closing in, all the cool hackerspace in San Francisco are falling into shambles, and nobody understand... Here's a feel good news item for the day! 101 Women Artists Who Got Wikipedia Pages This Week Last Saturday, about 600 volunteers in 31 venues around the globe engaged in a collective effort to change the world, one Wikipedia entry at a time. In the United States, Canada, Australia, Italy, the Netherlands, and the United Kingdom, in nonprofits and art schools, in museums and universities, these people--mostly women--set out to write entries, uncredited and unpaid, for the fast-growing crowd-sourced online encyclopedia.

Fwd: [i-announce@ischool] You're invited to next week's Brown Bag Seminar: A Reality Game to Cross Disciplines

by Troy Massey

"You are the source of Freedom : the price of Freedom is awareness and action" Begin forwarded message: From: School of Information <events(a)ischool.berkeley.edu> Date: February 6, 2014 at 11:24:33 AM PST To: i-announce(a)ischool.berkeley.edu Subject: [i-announce@ischool] You're invited to next week's Brown Bag Seminar: A Reality Game to Cross Disciplines Don't miss the upcoming event at the UC Berkeley School of Information: Brown Bag Seminar: A Reality Game to Cross Disciplines With Benjamin Stokes Wednesday, February 12, 2014, 12:10 pm - 1:00 pm 107 South Hall Educational and civic games are typically preparatory, teaching skills and information to be applied later. Yet the rise of reality gaming introduces a new possibility: that the game directly shapes real-world networks, even as it educates. Networks are a novel target for educational games, despite the vital importance of networks for educational attainment, securing jobs and even civic engagement. Benjamin Stokes investigates how digital media foster civic engagement, informal learning, and activism. He is currently studying how mobile media and videogames can advance social justice by bridging online and offline participation. Previously he co-founded Games for Change, the branch of the serious games movement focused on social issues and nonprofit organizations. Most recently, he was an education program officer at the MacArthur Foundation in their portfolio on Digital Media and Learning. Benjamin has also led the development of original digital media properties: at the educational nonprofit NetAid, his team created digital games and an activist training website that engaged more than 150,000 youth in fighting extreme poverty. Benjamin is a Ph.D. candidate at the University of Southern California in the Annenberg School for Communication and Journalism.

someone hacking the SudoRoom Wiki

by Romy Ilano

Hey, I just fixed a hack on the SudoRoom main page. Someone is hacking the SudoRoom Wiki - I don't know who, I know this probably happens often. Are there safety precautions? https://sudoroom.org/mediawiki/index.php?title=Sudoroom&action=history I undid the "hardcore jerkey action" - and I saw that someone also undid this shortly before I went on the page.
