I attended my first thursday javascript session and everyone agreed to
rename it Progrmaming! everything! everywhere! all at once!
I stuck Michelle Yeoh on the flyer if that's ok (I don't want to make stuff
too commercial but her hot dog fingers and the movie reminded us that stuff
is always perpetually changing)
Last session we talked about using chatGPT. Even though it's trendy it was
a cool debate, and someone used it to create a learning curriculum for
learning programming, and even had …
[View More]it construct lessons plans that he was
tweaking.
The conversation got a little spicy we talked about if chat gpt would
replace teachers (some people thought it would, some though it wouldn't.).
The next one is next Thursday!

I want to make a newsletter for sudoroom! I think it's pretty cool and it
will help donations as well as showcase lal the cool stuff people are doing
Here's the monthly rock paper scissors collective newsletter!
It's pretty cool. I think ours would be less frequent, maybe once every
two months?

i'm looking for a connector (with wires already on it ideally but i'll take
the kit if that's what's available) like this:
https://www.molex.com/pdm_docs/sd/436450800_sd.pdf
number 43645-0800 which is the eight-pin connector but i also happen to need
two of the two-pin ones, although those are less of a problem for me right
now.
I'm talking about the "plug" end which has holes for metal pins to stick into,
from a connector that mounts on a board. I need the end that goes on wires.
thank you!

weird question but
i'm looking for plastic drinking straws to use for bike wheel lights. I know
they're illegal in california so i figure people probably have some stashed
and hoarded and don't want to give them up, but we need them.
we're planning another bike light making session and then a bikelight
installing event before the next East Bay Bike Party, which happens on
February 11th from Rockridge BART (nearby sudoroom!)
I want to make lights like these to go on wheels:
https://www.…
[View More]radlicht.com/store/products/radlicht-bike-wheel-light-red/
we have tons of battery holders with switches, plus we can make some sort of
automatic thing to turn them on - not sure how to do that yet so suggestions
are welcome! Probably a two-state tilt thing that charges a capacitor to turn
on a FET to turn on the lights, so it only takes power when the wheel is
turning.

Hey Peter,
Thanks for drawing my attention to the occultation.
It was fun to watch even with the light pollution we have in the city.
When mars got very close to the moon, my eyes couldn't see it because the
moon is so much brighter but the Griffith Park telescope in LA streamed the
view of the setting and rising of mars nicely.
Here's a photo taken by my friend Hector in Waterford, CA
[image: signal-2023-01-30-182913.jpeg]
Tonight (Jan 30th) in the early evening, there is a very interesting
astronomical event -- an occultation of the planet Mars by the Moon. A
full occultation (eclipse) of Mars is visible all across the southern
portion of the United States (and further south). For the Bay Area, the
Moon will narrowly miss Mars. You have to be south of a line from
approximately Soledad through Fresno to see Mars fully covered by the Moon.
Closest approach is about 8:54pm PST for the Bay Area.&…
[View More]nbsp; The orange-red
color of Mars will make a striking contrast with the silver-white
surface of the Moon. This event can be seen naked-eye, but binoculars
or a small telescope will definitely help.
Cheers, -Peter

This is just a heads up about the laser cutter. PLEASE make sure the
chiller is operating/on when you are using the laser. IF you do not know
what the chiller is you SHOULD NOT be using the laser cutter. I found the
chiller unplugged due to something laying on the power cord causing it to
become detached. If we are not vigilant in the start up step of the laser
sudoroom will not have one due to operator error. Not wanting to be a
castigator just wanting people to know that stupid things …
[View More]like a badly
placed object can be the end of great equipment.

I'd like to take one of the laptops from the laptop closet, and wanted to
check if anyone had any plans for it. It's a Sony Vio with some cosmetic
damage on the side.
Jake said that there's a spreadsheet for tracking the donated laptops, and
I wanted to ask for access and instructions on how to withdraw one.
Thanks,
*Andrew R Gross, (he/him)*
