Hi everyone, My name's Aman! I'd love to meet y'all at the Sudo Room. I swung by the Omni unannounced recently, and Joe suggested I drop a message here at sudo-discuss to introduce myself. I'm your neighbor, live close to the Omni. I'm interested in re-igniting an old college hobby around DIY audio equipment; I'd love to build a new amp for my HD 600 headphones. It's been a long time since I've worked on hardware -- these days I do computational math and stats as a consultant. I'm also interested in experimenting with soap bubbles. I'd love to meet you and have a chance to share ideas and learn new things. The new space looks like it has great potential and you're already doing some very cool things with it. I'd be excited to hear about some of the projects that y'all are working on, and more about what the Sudo Room (and Omni) community is like. When would be a good time to swing by and introduce myself in person?

Actual kickoff of the hackathon will be at 9PM* on UC Berkeley campus

Hi Folks, If you're interested in participating in the upcoming space hackathon, we'll be meeting tomorrow evening at 7PM to get some info from the guys at magnitude.io on their goals for the event, and it will be a good opportunity to see how many sudoers want to get involved and what we're thinking. The categories basically break down into small form factor biological experiments (ccl folks are also involved :), small satellites, and autonomous rovers/uavs that are capable of being launched from 10,000 feet, then autonomously returning to the launch site either through the air or overland. There will be another meeting Thursday which should be a bit more hardware oriented once we figure out some more details. Actual kickoff of the hackathon will be at 9PM on UC Berkeley campus in Sutardja Dai Hall. Cheers, Hol
