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...

Hi all,
Bit torrent released a p2p messenger today! I know you're the type of crowd
who likes security, so I figured it'd be worth sharing.

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 …
[View More]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! ;)

Someone wants to film Sudoroom for a VICE documentary. What should we tell them?
P.S. this isn't revealing any new information. They already sent the
same thing to Noisebridge-discuss.

Hi,
My name is Paula Neudorf and I'm a producer at VICE. I'm working on an
eight-part …
[View More]documentary series about computer security and hacking that
will air on TV in the U.S. and Canada, and internationally online.
I was referred your way by a contact at Noisebridge, because we'll be
filming in the Bay Area the week of May 18 and are looking to talk to
hackers doing interesting things.
I'd love to talk more about the series and what we're after. Please
let me know! Since I'm working on deadline, it would be great to hear
from someone at your earliest convenience.
Thanks,
Paula
