is sudoroom going to have a presence at Maker Faire? It means a bunch of
people can get in free. All we need is a table and some interesting
things to put on it, and people to sign up for shifts to guard the table.
also i think it could be a good opportunity to attract excellent hackers
to our space.
no we cannot bring the robot. it's too big and delicate and they would
never allow us to turn it on without a cage around it.

I just signed up for a combined Bay Area Biohackers booth as well, with
CCL, BioCurious, plus whomever else wants to join us. If Sudo wants to have
a booth as well, you can ask to be located near us.

Does anyone know where I can get a plant or seeds or cuttings of the ilex
guayusa plant?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ilex_guayusa
I'm already growing ilex paraguariensis at Omni but I'd like to have both
plants. Why?
Because they literally turn CO2 and dirt into caffeine. How are we not all
doing this already?

It looks like the fiscal year for sudo room ends in November instead of
December. I'm inducing this from scant information available but will try
to verify with the IRS tomorrow (their phone lines are pretty jammed
today). This means that, for the tax forms that we file the deadline is
15th of April instead of 15th of May. Again, I will try to verify this.
It seems that Max Klein actually did file taxes before 15th of April last
year, so we're good.

Hi Sarah,
Sudo has paid the second invoice for utilities and insurance for January.
The first invoice is for insurance from January-July. Does this mean we need to pay 2x insurance for January?
As we are not currently fiscally solvent and are dipping into our savings, we would prefer to pay monthly installments. $581.46/6 = $96.91/month. Let me know how we should reconcile January?
Many thanks for all you do <3

This is a test email. If you have a yahoo email and see this only in the
archives on the main Sudo site, check your spam folder. Many Sudo emails
may be going into it.
I will be sending another similar test email that is not a reply to see if
it makes a difference.

Hey Jenny,
Thanks for the update.
To clarify, the invoice for insurance is for Sudo Room's policy with State
Farm (not the Omni's general insurance). Our lease states that each member
collective must hold its own insurance policy, and if any of the member
collectives default on their insurance, John Givens can fine the Omni a
percentage of the rent. After a few mishaps with member collectives'
insurance policies lapsing, the finances working group decided to pay all
of the individual collectives' policies through July.
The Omni is also required to hold general liability insurance and
director's and officer's insurance, and John Givens invoices us monthly for
the building insurance policy he holds. We pay for each of these policies
monthly and collectives share the expense. So, you will continue to see
insurance as a line item on your monthly shared expense bill for the Omni's
general insurance expenses.
I can create a new invoice for Sudo Room's State Farm policy reflecting the
monthly payment schedule.
Let me know if you have any questions in the meantime.
Thanks so much,
Sarah

A woman is Looking for tech help ASAP
Do we have a job list?
She focuses on neuroscience and spiritual healing
Her main concern for her website is functionality.
A. Scheduler- Main Pain Point
She is having an issue with people scheduling appointment. I advised her to
ditch the "form" and go with in interactive live e scheduler where as
clients can see what she has open and she can block off dates she does not
want to work. (very simple to integrate)
B. EBlast
Her eblast needs to be integrated with her email list at mailchimp.
C. Landing Page
She has a new sector/product within her site "Redesigning Shame" that needs
a distinct landing page.
This is a paid job with a budget
What she needs can truly be done in 2-3 days if that.
Ideal person is skilled in Front/Backend
Any interest?

Hi,
I'm not really in this discussion but I thought I should chime in. There
was some discussion on lighting earlier and creating an atmosphere.
The other day I brought to Sudo Room a fully functional "EZ up" that has no
fabric canopy. I thought if it was set up over the work tables that it
could be used as a structure for which to attach lights (temporarily) to
test out some ideas.
One person thought that it was an interesting idea - another person said it
would take up too much room. I responded by saying that it would only take
up 4 square inches since that is the foot print of each 1 in leg -
otherwise it is a square grid in the air.
Light can be clamped onto the grid or mounted by screws. If using the
frame is not desirable then the metal can be hacked, used for the robot or
scrapped. It could even be used at the maker faire.

I ordered eight 16-21watt LED lights from china with the $55raised at
the meeting last night
i'll put them on the non functioning flourescent fixture above the sewing

Hi All,
As per last night's discussion at the meeting I would like to suggest the
following:
The Omni building be declared a scent-free workplace. There are many such
offices, etc., especially in the Bay Area. This means anyone entering the
building is required to refrain from using perfumes (except natural ones
from a health food store), hairsprays, deodorants, scented makeup, etc.
All cleaning products and the like should be free of scents (many very fine
natural ones are available), paint or other building improvement products
should be free of scents and chemicals if at all possible (there are paints
that are chemical free and have no odor.)
However, any member project producing an odor or unavoidable smoke or odor
from a room improvement that can't be avoided, should be exempt from any
restrictions. In such cases, the membership should be informed of such
project's timeline, so affected members can avoid building use at such
times.
Have a funny day.
Best,
Ira Brightman (The Life-Extension Comedian)

Cere probably is thinking of the warmth of standard incandescent lights with a color temp of 2700K.
A light with 4000K color temperature is a cool white, good for detail work, not so nice for comfort...

The 8ft 75W T12 fluorescent bulbs should be around 5000 Lumen each. The
7-LED bulbs you linked to are listed as 2100 Lumen, so 5 of those per
fluorescent fixture should be enough to give the same illumination. The
light will be a lot less diffuse though - one reason to perhaps experiment
with LED strip lights instead...

Actually my favorite "warm" lighting is halogens. Didn't bother to look at
the specs but that combined with a little more whitish light would probably
be ideal for sudo/ccl. Again. I think the light would be a lot more
pleasant, whatever we choose, if it's projected to the ceiling and bouncing
back down.

halogens are very inefficient, 2nd only to plain old ordinary bulbs.
