this sat 9/21 at sudo: "SQL Injection & Prevention" TIL + nodeschool.io

by Marina Kukso

hi all, in addition to your regularly scheduled hacking, we will have two things going on at sudo: 2PM: Today I Learned: "SQL Injection & Prevention" with the excellent rhodey. from the description on the wik<https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Today_I_Learned#September_21:_SQL_Injection_.26_P…>i: SQL Injection or "SQLi" is a one of the most dangerous, popular and fun :D web application exploits found today on the modern web. In this lesson we will cover the basics of SQL and then dive into some SQLi exploitation and mitigation techniques. A series of mock web applications will be made available for attendants to practice on. After TIL: we'll be informally working on stuff in nodeschool.io, a cool new learning program created by sudoers max ogden and substack, along with many others. max is travelling the world<https://twitter.com/maxogden/status/381143774975385600/photo/1>, but substack will be around (in between world-travelling adventures). yay, learning & hacking ^_^ - marina

Peer Garden social, next Wednesday 9/25

by Jenny Ryan

Yo Sudo! Interested in peer-to-peer applications, mesh networking, decentralized and distributed tech? Open Garden is starting a series of social events in the interest of sparking great conversations, sharing ideas and projects, and co-learning. Also beer. The first one is next Wednesday at Biergarten: http://www.meetup.com/Tech-Garden-SF/events/139596332/ I won't be there for this one as I'm off to Berlin for a few weeks, but it would be great to have some Sudoers representing!

Proposal: 5MOF Symposium; Protocols vs. Platforms

by Dan Cote

I am thinking of having a 5MOF event where we all talk about a single topic. This topic is near and dear to many of us. Protocol stacks like email have served us well since the beginning of the internet. Email continues to be the "lowest common denominator." It's the communication tool that everyone disagrees with the least. Protocols allow people, computers, companies, and other entities to communicate in a prescribed manner. Platforms like Facebook, Twitter, Google's many offerings, and many others offer deeply customized computing experiences for specific tasks. A company or group of companies acquire talent and spend time dialing in these tools. Day One: 5MOF at Noisebridge Day Two: Lightning Talks at Hacker Dojo Day Three: Your Bay Area Hackerspace Day Four: Final Showdown venue tba The hackerspace days would have a social atmosphere, like dev house. There would be opportunities for serendipitous encounters. The best speakers will be invited to speak again at the Final Showdown, which is of course, serious business. It is my not-so-secret nefarious goal that people who have been working on platforms can learn from the protocol people and vice versa. If you are interested in organizing this, send a message to 5mof-symposium(a)lists.noisebridge.net, or join the list<https://www.noisebridge.net/mailman/listinfo/5mof-symposium> .

secure/activist hosting?

by David Keenan

Recommendations for a reputable host / colo for the forthcoming Bay Area Public School site reboot? Ideally a host with ethics that align with a place like Riseup, but is on the west coast, preferably the Bay Area.. unless that is some kind of crazy dream? Do we / sudo have the upstream bandwidth to host simple sites (basic WP) from 2141? I can set it all up.. Where does SUDO host our main site, wiki etc? Sorry if these are noob-y questions - any guidance appreciated - thx! David

Re: [sudo-discuss] report from two (2!) women-oriented hacker events tonight

by Max Klein

Hi Marina, Thank you for the insightful report. I am looking forwards to hearing more of the lessons that you allude to about how we can make sudo more woman-friendly. I want to offer any support I can to your new chapter of woman who code. also I invite you to talk more about your experiences at the next meeting if you feel like any recommendations can be made to sudoers from these experiences. m > > ---------- Forwarded message ---------- > From: Andrew <andrew(a)roshambomedia.com> > To: Marina Kukso <marina.kukso(a)gmail.com> > Cc: "sudo-discuss(a)lists.sudoroom.org" <sudo-discuss(a)lists.sudoroom.org> > Date: Thu, 19 Sep 2013 00:19:07 -0700 > Subject: Re: [sudo-discuss] report from two (2!) women-oriented hacker > events tonight > > Shag carpet in the sex closet...
