Gratipay Payout and Internet Archive Federal Credit Union deposit issue

by Matthew Senate

Hey all, We had some issues getting Gratipay (our donation service provider at https://gratipay.com/sudoroom) to work with their payment processing Balanced Payments to make successful payouts (transactions) to our bank account with IAFCU, the Internet Archive Federal Credit Union, aka the Internet Credit Union. Now, the issues should be resolved. I am waiting to see the credit appear in our IAFCU account records, but I got confirmation that Gratipay successfully transacted the payout today via Balanced Payments. These were the primary issues, which took substantial digging to figure out: 1. There seem to be some federal regulations that required our credit union to explicitly post payments to either our savings or our checking account, without ambiguity. This is done by adding a suffix to our account number for any given transaction, i.e. add "000" to correspond to our savings account. 2. However, also, when this suffix is appended to our account number, there must also be a matching value that corresponds to "savings" or "checking" called a "TRANS code". Unfortunately, gratipay did not expose this value option in their interface, despite it being supported by Balanced Payments's API. We should now have the correct suffix and the correct TRANS code that matches to deposit gratipay payouts to our savings account at IAFCU. Whew. // Matt

Anyone else notice that the NASDAQ Composite Index has about reached the nominal peak of the dotcom boom? It's not at the real value peak (i.e. adjusted for inflation), but still pretty peakish: http://bigcharts.marketwatch.com/quickchart/quickchart.asp?symb=COMP&instty… It seems to me that additional market forces caused by the likes of a crisis in student debt or perhaps a natural disaster, such as an earthquake, could hasten the inevitable burst. Otherwise we may be looking at just a few years before a substantial fall in the stock market, devaluation of over-inflated "tech" companies, subsided startup investment, decrease in technology field employment, or other similar things... What might one do to prepare, as if not soon, at least inevitably there will be some stock market crash that will largely affect the wide bay area economy? // Matt

Re: [sudo-discuss] Arduino Bootloader on the ESP8266

by Jake

that's totally excellent. I have two of those but i haven't had a chance to play with them yet. perhaps there needs to be another hacknight at sudoroom, called software hacking thursdays or something like that? since this would technically be software since the hardware is already put together... but who would host a Software Hacking Thursdays at sudoroom every week? do you have one yet? what would you do with it? i still haven't had a chance to play with openWRT and the zillions of compatible routers i have piles of. They run on a wide range of voltage (built-in buck converter) and they run linux, they have a TTL serial port and a few GPIOs.. what can't you do with them? -jake On Thursday Adam wrote: Someone managed to cram the arduino bootloader on the ESP8266 https://makezine.com/2015/04/01/esp8266-5-microcontroller-wi-fi-now-arduino… Yup. $3 wifi arduino. $1.50 in aliexpress bulk.

Fwd: looking for someone to testify about IP addresses

by null null null

Anyone interested in testifying at court about how IP addresses work? It's for a good cause/you'll make a couple hundred bucks in the process. If so, get in touch with Kate Raven <raven.kate(a)gmail.com>. She's a public attorney, and you'll find her values are pretty closely aligned with those at Sudo. -null ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Kate Raven <raven.kate(a)gmail.com> Date: Wed, Apr 1, 2015 at 4:38 PM Subject: Re: looking for someone to testify about IP addresses To: null null null <null(a)revolution.cheap> Null, Thanks for your help. Basically, I need someone who code testify as an "expert" in a probation violation hearing next tuesday. It should be an interesting experience for whoever does it and I should be able to pay a couple hundred bucks. Basically, the "expert" just needs to have some credentials in computer stuff above that of a lay person (I need them to be able to explain to the court what an IP address is, what an IP login is, and some stuff around this.) If anyone is interested, I can explain more but it is a really worthwhile case. Kate On Wed, Apr 1, 2015 at 2:48 PM, null null null <null(a)revolution.cheap> wrote: > Hey Kate!

Re: [sudo-discuss] Omni Commons Donations

by Scott Edmonds

Can any one say if membership or access to SudoRoom comes with a donation to the campaign. And if so, what level of donation is required? A friend asked me, "Will I get a membership to use their tool shop if I donate?”. Thoughts? I don’t see why this couldn’t be incorporated somehow. - Scott
