I would like to see Rock Paper Scissors Collective, Oakland youth, fun people who sew do more things with Sudo Room and build things. I would like to see more people have fun, especially if the people are from different social circles that wouldn't normally mix and it doesn't have to cost a lot of money. | I would like to see Rock Paper Scissors Collective, Oakland youth, fun people who sew do more things with Sudo Room and build things.

* One of my friends Joe Reagle Wrote a nice book on collaboration in Wikipedia. He outlines a lot of interesting situations and ways people resolve conflict on Wikipedia. It might be useful to people in an open source hackerspace as well. "http://reagle.org/joseph/2010/gfc/" | * One of my friends Joe Reagle Wrote a nice book on collaboration in Wikipedia.

== Things I like About Sudo Room == | |||
* People aren't afraid to disagree and have open conflict. When things get too passive aggressive I joke that you get situations like the murderous passive-aggressive California hippie cult leader Sal from ''The Beach'' | |||
* I can talk to people about code. I go to a lot of events around coding where people talk about coding and don't actually code. People like to show me how to code things. | |||
* I like that it's a safe space where people can say they don't like social networks. In more corporate hacker spaces stuff like that can get you fired. | |||
* People are making things. | |||
* There are a lot of great books everywhere. I was surprised when I go to some tech spaces and there are no books, and nobody there looks like they read books. It's not a judgement call. There's a famous university town nearby that doesn't have any late night bookstores. It feels off, like a church without a steeple. There's something about reading good books that goes with being an interesting person. | |||
