Re: [sudo-discuss] workshop weekend

Hi all, Enclosed is a flyer for the workshop that you may post or email to friends. The below message came from the Noisebridge list, and is very closely related to what we are trying to do in our workshop. It might be seen as the next step for those who participate in our workshop. cheers Hilary ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Glen Jarvis <glen(a)glenjarvis.com> To: NoiseBridge Discuss <noisebridge-discuss(a)lists.noisebridge.net> Date: Sun, 16 Jun 2013 12:07:53 -0700 Subject: [Noisebridge-discuss] From NAND gates to Tetris... wanna do it? In doing research on MOOC, I ran into this video. It's a computer science program that I'm personally excited about. It's a *perfect* Noisebridge project. One can build a computer (from the scratch: NAND gates -> Chip Sets -> Hardware Platform -> Assembler -> Virtual Machine -> Operating System -> Compiler -> Tetris Game). Here is the Ted talk that I saw that introduced me to the program: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iE7YRHxwoDs Here are the course materials: http://shimonschocken.com/?page_id=65 http://www.nand2tetris.org/ This is incredibly good (and exciting) stuff. Is this already on the noisebridge calendar? Should it be? (+1 votes accepted). Kindest Regards, Glen -- "Pursue, keep up with, circle round and round your life as a dog does his master's chase.
