Delegate's Meeting Location: Inaccessible

by Ryan

Hey folks! I've been in and out due to serious health problems, but I'm hoping to be spending more time at the Omni soon. However, there's one thing that's really concerning to me... Since moving into an electric wheelchair for the most part, the delegate's meeting is rather inaccessible. I understand making the basement accessible would be a rather large feat and I don't expect it to be done overnight. However, considering the delegates meetings are such a Big Deal, I was wondering if we could move them to somewhere folks with wheelchairs can attend. But... Severe lack of space, Batman! I understand the the ballroom isn't always a viable option because having it reserved every Thursday night isn't opportune. The adjacent rooms are too small and also not always accessible. La Commune would end up with the meeting constantly being interrupted and the acoustics aren't great for a meeting. Using sudo/CCL might work (cc'ing sudo on this) but then it shuts down sudo/CCL's ability to have events at this time *and* means people have to stop hacking. Another option would be to try and kind of "live cast" the meeting somewhere else in the building that's accessible, but that brings up two concerns: weirdly removing disabled folks from the meeting itself into a kind of segregation, and privacy concerns surrounding recording. Now that the delegates meeting is only every other week, maybe it is feasible to have it in the ballroom, and then if we need the ballroom for something else try and find another space in the building that's wheelchair accessible before defaulting to the basement. (cc'ing commons working group as well, and consensus)

CHIP - the world's first $9 computer

by Patrik D'haeseleer

Anyone know these folks? They are seriously kicking CCL's butt as most popular Kickstarter to come out of Oakland right now... Looks like it's a tiny Linux board, about half the size of a Raspberry Pi, and much cheaper. Very slick. They've raised $1.2M in a week so far... Patrik

hack a day

by Romy Ilano

I usually do a sketch a day (one sketch a day) but i always want to play and experiment with code... i never seem to get around to doing one new code or hack a day which would actually be really fun! biggest barrier: distractions, surfing the web, and then: I think the stuff that stands in the way is: just thinking about it, setting up my IDE, fear of imperfection, and it takes like about 5-10 minutes of coding to "get into the flow" and start pushing your limits as a result, i don't code as much as I could even though I really like it. i really would like to hod more casual hacks every day. have you thought about this? I'm thinking of starting them on paper the way I do my drawings. in pseudocode I remember this was a big problem i had with making comics and I was never profile wish i could be more like jake and just be compulsive about it! dang social media and ADHD! ;) ============================= Romy Ilano romy(a)snowyla.com
