= Discussion = Longer discussion items belong here. This is the last part of the meeting so that people can break off and continue their discussion afterwards. * Patrick also Jay - Event Proposal for next year. * Patrick: A friend of Jay's has a touring hands-on Enigma machine workshop. They have a literal fucking Enigma machine. Hands-on travelling history tour. Often done as a corporate event, but want to do it at Noisebridge. What about payment? Godwaffle Noisepancakes does this but it's sort of grandfathered in, do they donate anything back to Noisebridge? Would Noisebridge be interested in hosting this and Noisebridge would get some money back. Yea nay (everyone wants to play with the machines). * Victoria - I'm interested in talking about bike party and/or decorating bikes with LEDs. * Victoria: Bike Party! There is a new channel in slack: #bikeparty East bay bike party second friday of october! SF is the first Friday (of october) End of the month - critical mass SF Who wants to get together on a Friday or some other day and glue fuckin hot glue lights to your bike with led strips and shit? ::Everyone raises their hands:: * Victoria: bring a bunch of LEDs and shit for your bike next Friday, October 6th. I will bring a bunch of Teensy microcontrollers. * Jay: I will take care of the meetup!! * Ryan: Can we make a Noisebridge Flaschen-Taschen? * Everyone: Thank you for volunteering. * Victoria: Come to the thing and make it!! * J - (partly representing some viewpoints Zach expressed and partly his own viewpoints) Allocating funds for fixing things in the space. And that people that bought those things get compensated. Various people have fixed things out of their own pocket. Electrical, bathrooms, elevators. What about little c or BIG C consensus for a fund for this type of repairs for everyday repairs that happen within reason. * Ben: This rolls into what John Shutt proposed on Slack. * Patrick: Are we talking about paying people for time? I don't think we should reimburse people for labor. People have thrown cash peoples way for doing awesome stuff historically. * J - I don't think this is about reimbursing people for their time, just for materials. * Lady Red - It also lets you do a more complete job. * Victoria - I think it's a good idea. * Trent - I am also against the idea of paying people for their time. * Katherine - I am against the idea of paying people but not against people being reimbursed within reason for what they spend. * J - I think it is reasonable if we are considerate about the amount. * Lady Red - Should we put 1% of our money in and it runs out or should it come out of the general fund? * Victoria - The person with the best input is probably John. * Victoria - I think we should pay people for their time. * J - is this a big c or a little c? * Patrick - Historically we just do it for materials they brought in. Is there a strong difference for the reboot pattern? Maybe it just hasn't been exercised recently? I think we should make that more clear to people. * Victoria - For the sake of continuity, because I think John is looking to not be treasurer, we should get a written down process, even if it is what we do the reboot already. Having a process because oh my god do I hate arguing about money. * Lady Red - That would be a substantial difference. We are in a situation in the sewing area where the equipment fund would buy a new machine but would not cover paying someone for fixing our current machine even if that's cheaper. * Augur - maybe repairs should be part of the equiment fund as well. * Patrick - I'm 99% we've reimbursed kyle for repair work that he got done on earlier machines. * Ryan - Hacker Retreat * Ryan - This is a process I do every couple months. My friends are constantly inundated with the chaos of the bay area, it can get to a lot of people. I grew up here and it can be insane. Whenever I get stressed out I head out for a couple days to retreat. I've gone on a retreat a couple hackers for a couple days and it's been helpful for people to take a break or reframe a problem they are trying to solve. What do people think about taking retreats to different places, like camping trips to different locations. There are a ton of places I know to retreat to. What do people think of a more formal hacker retreat? * Victoria- Have you heard of toorcamp? https://toorcamp.toorcon.net/ June 20th-ISH next year. * J - There's two channels - #hacker-trips and #fieldtrips - * Razzi - The smell in the back - not enough airflow for the laser. * Razzi - It's the burnt smell. * Augur - Laser ventilation sucks. * Victoria - I complained about it and someone said "it happens whenever the windows are open, so if you close the windows it stops coming in. * Patrick - what about cheap monitoring equipment? * Others - It's not gonna be cheap * J - Buying the space * J - Maybe we should all be thinking about if we are going to buy the space or go somewhere else or co-own another building? Patrick - Our lease here goes through September 2018, the countdown has started. == Discussion Items == If any important discussion happens, it should be happening after forward progress is made during consensus.
