And sounds awesome!

gemma__: definitely coordinate with maxw on materials that he's sending people

zrl: re: krarick http://xph.us/2013/01/22/inbox-zero-for-life.html, why use mute?

zrl: hey, we're running a Scratch Day in early May. sounds like the stuff you'd be interested in if you wanna get involved.

hardmath123: when is it?

zrl so down

zrl: re: krarick http://xph.us/2013/01/22/inbox-zero-for-life.html, why use mute?

ah, sorry

so you don't get pinged for things you're cced in

idk, i don't use mute

i just archive and rearchive

i get little enough email to be able to read most emails in my inbox, so it doesn't hurt

but yeah, so the biggest thing was moving most discussion to irc/github

because that enables anyone to engage

but it also keeps a running record of all things going in the organization

one of the things he found is people become less stuck in their views when having open discussions online

because (1) they know the argument is being discussed with the world, and (2) (i'm assuming this one) people become less biased when having to explicitly articulate their biases

and i actually really want to experiment with this

hardmath123: schweet, don't have anything that day

can you pm me the address so i can add it to my calendar?

will do my best to be there

maxw: btw i fixed the bots

steward is no longer allowed to do commit notifications, github has a built-in irc thing that'll automatically do it

that's who dinobot is

👍

zrl: 780 Arastradero Rd, Palo Alto, CA. Same place as GunnHacks!

oh whoops pm

my bad

what time does it start?

10:00am

and end?

probably 2pm

cool, thanks

maybe earlier, we're still deciding

added to my calendar

this is a pretty good opportunity to recruit for hshackers/hackedu

you'll end up with like 30+ kids who are excited about code and want to meet people

yup, and it'll also be fun to help new people get into coding :-)

awesome!

there's something really gratifying about that moment when someone uses code to do something they didn't know they could do

that spark in their eye

btw, zrl: if you guys need a space in palo alto-- we

we've a big house you can use.

will definitely hit you up for that, we occasionally have meetings down in palo alto and it's a pain having to take the caltrain back before we can get back to work. thanks!
