"Empathy for Computer Scientist" - A tutorial-essay.

by Maximilian Klein

Dearest Sudoers, I've been writing a piece called "The Universal Empathy Machine: Nonviolent Communication Explained with Mathematics and Computer Science" <http://notconfusing.com/universal-empathy-machine/> < http://notconfusing.com/universal-empathy-machine/>, and I'd be curious to get your feedback on it because if you're on this list you're an exemplary of my target audience. It's intended for the intersection of people who love machines and logic, and care about good communication. Here's an excerpt: > 0. The Universal Empathy Machine > > Empathy is not sympathy. What’s the difference? Think of the Universal > Turing Machine <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_Turing_machine>. > It is a machine that accepts a program and data, and runs that program on > that data. In this way it can simulate all programs on all data. Let us > think of a human as a program and human experience as data. *Sympathy > then, is running your program on someone else’s data. Empathy is running > their program on their data.* As you can see the results of the sympathy > and empathy computations are not guaranteed to be identical. In a nutshell > Nonviolent Communication is about becoming the Universal Empathy Machine, > to be able to emulate the architecture of an arbitrary person given an > arbitrary experience. > Make a great day, Max Klein ‽ http://notconfusing.com/

Lend a hand with moving some gear for CCL & Sudo, 2pm today?

by Patrik D'haeseleer

Anyone available to help move some gear for CCL and Sudo Room this afternoon? Do let me know as soon as possible if you have access to a truck as well, otherwise I'll probably wind up having to rent a UHaul. We'll be picking up a set of sturdy metal shelves, a spot welder, and various boxes of electronic components in Hayward. We need to be *at* the storage space in by 2pm, 77 Traynor Str. in Hayward. Thanks! Patrik

LLVM aficionados anywhere?

by Adam Munich

Howdy hackers, My friend is looking for somebody to write a compiler in LLVM for his new CPU architecture, which consists of a bunch of separate cored with their own scratchpad memory and the ability to interact with each other. He hasn't had luck poaching people from Google and such, but needs to get this done by November for DARPA. Are any of you interested in very funky computer architectures? If so I can make the connection! Cheers, -Adam

Omni Door card-swipe might be iffy

by Matthew Senate

Hey all, The Omni Door card-swipe system seems to be working at the moment. However, be aware there might be an issue that resurfaces. I came upon the front door system and it was not working. This was strange because Marc was granting access to a gaggle of folks maybe an hour before. The laptop was off, the switch was off, and all the cords were a tangled mess. I re-built a new little shelf for the laptop/server, power strips, switch, etc that are in the southeast corner of the front room of the building. Everything is neatly organized, let's keep it that way! The magnetic stripe card reader was giving me such guff! It really didn't want to work, and I tested every single component to try to figure it out. I swapped to a new USB hub with a power supply several times, but on my last try it miraculously went from non-working to working. I have no idea why. I did, however, build a theory for the color code of the magnetic stripe card reader: - Red LED - power is on, problem with connection - Yellow LED - power is on, no connection - Green LED - power is on, connected - UNLESS the green LED turns off after just one swipe, in which case: - No light from LED - no power, possibly low power, or something else is happening I can't explain. // Matt

Cheap place to stay for fellow French biohacker?

by Patrik D'haeseleer

Any recommendations for a cheap place to stay for a visiting biohacker from La Paillasse in Paris? Anyone willing to put him up for a few days? Thanks! Patrik ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: WordPress <wordpress(a)counterculturelabs.org> Date: Tue, Aug 4, 2015 at 11:24 AM Subject: [Counter Culture Labs Contact] From Sébastien Treguer To: info(a)counterculturelabs.org Name: Sébastien Treguer Email: streguer(a)gmail.com Comments: Hello, I'm Sebastien from France, where I'm involved in a bio-hackerspace called La Paillasse. I heard about you from Mitch Altman that I met many times in Paris. What you are doing at counter culture lab seems really cool and interesting. I will be around SF from the 5th of August, for the INNS conference (near SFO airport) from 8th to 10th and a workshop I'm working on about Deep Learning and Neural Networks at Stanford on the 11th. I would be happy to meet you on the 5th evening or 6th evening. However I would need to find a cheap place to stay in the area. Would you have any recommendation? Best regards, Sébastien
