We got an email on the info@ address from someone seeking an internship/apprenticeship of some kind, and I think it's a great opportunity for everyone. Unfortunately i don't have bandwidth to take this on (I think) so i'm wondering if anyone else does? I think it would be good for everyone. -jake To Whom It May Concern, Hello! I am a student at ... a high school in Downtown Oakland. Our school requires juniors to find unpaid internship placements at local businesses on Thursdays from April - May. I am very interested in the possibility of having an internship with your organization. I am hoping to find a placement that will teach me about the different ways to be involved in the field of coding and computer programming. During my sophomore and junior years, I took classes involved with coding in Java. Through these classes I learned how to have fun while learning to code, and the way your organization offers a creative space with technology really interests me. Would it be possible to talk further about interning at your organization? I'm also attaching a quick information sheet as well as my resume and a more detailed cover letter. If you are interested in more of the specifics around our internship program, please let me know so we can set up a time to talk further about this possibility!

Anyone at game dev conference this week?

by Romy Ilano

Any SudoRoom Game devs ? I’m at game dev after events this week after it’s several years absence due to COVID The energy is great and tbh from the first evening it feels a lot less corporate. Not that I want a downturn but it feels like the fluffy unnecessary people are leaving tech in droves right now and it’s more punk rocks Trying to figure out what I can bring from what I learned back to the SudoRoom next week !!

Mechanical Keyboards

by Jonathan Cadle

Is anyone else interested in mechanical keyboards, or just keyboard collecting/customization as a hobby? I got really into it during the pandemic, and I was thinking that organizing some kind of mechanical keyboards meetup could attract additional attention (and possible venue revenue?) for the Omni/Sudoroom. I'd also just love to geek out over builds, cool vintage finds, etc. What do you all think? Jonathan

If you’d like to join to hangout or play a game, message me your interest! 2. *Movie night:* This is very tentative, but if you’d be interested in watching Hackers or Lawnmower Man or something, message your interest and availability in April. Would you rather it be on a weeknight or a weekend? 3. *A Sudo Mesh meeting* (!): I'm trying to organize this on *a Wednesday night or Sunday in late March*.
