| PC Security discussion - would love to hear various speakers talk about the following: what sort of risks do various raster file formats pose and why; if one has to be online while running an app locally, what kinds of unwanted behaviors might we be leaving ourselves open to; how can I be so sure when my virus protection app presents a window with directions that it is the real deal (so far this has worked but is it just a fluke); when some app can write files to my disk, what else might they be able do; how can I better use my virus protection program. will add more as they come up. feel free to add yours. |

Man I wish pbworks had mobile editing so I could add my interest in php and python classes

What precisely is a "reading group"? I assume it means: 1) read a particular book, 2) meet and discuss. I'd like to add "hack group": 1) read stuff, 2) meet and someone with previous experience gives a demo and answers questions (valid answer might "I dunno") 3) group hacks on a task and posts results.

Yes. What kind?

Monkey Fist is always a fun sailing knot, but there are LOTS more. I used to be a Scoutmaster, so I can help with this too.

I used ~ to indicate that I am by no means an ultimate über-expert on the topic, but likely have something to contribute on the teaching side. Not that I consider myself an ultimate über-expert on anything, really. :)

Shouldn't there be a "both" column in addition to just teacher/learner? There are many topics which I can teach but still want to learn more about.

I can't say I have teachable knowledge, but I integrated my rails app with Clickpass and wrote the steps in my blog, http://blog.yangtheman.com/2009/09/17/how-to-integrate-clickpass-or-openid-with-a-rails-app/
Hopefully, it could be helpful to some!

Did this list get corrupted at some point? I ended up on the teacher side of things I'd marked myself as "want to learn", and I'm pretty sure the opposite happened to Ben McGraw.

If anyone is interested in digital electronics Verilog / FPGA/CPLD ( on Altera / quartus ) i can teach. I can also do microcontrollers 8051 / ARM ( 7 and cortex) , GPIB , I2C , analog and digital electronics as well as visual basic for electronics (controlling printerports, serial ports, GPIB test equipment etc )

I've been trying to learn about FPGAs for nearly a year, now. I would love a class like that. Add it to the end of the list and see who signs up!
I'd also love to chat about I2C sometime, in a class or not. Might as well add it too--the worst that happens is that no one signs up. :)

Hey Vincent that is nice, please let me know your contact number and I will call you sometime, interesting to work on ARM

I've recently given a "Hello, World!" for FPGA/Verilog class and would be happy to give it again at Hacker Dojo. You come in with a Linux or Window laptop, install the tools from a DVD I provide, and build a counter circuit in Verilog. Using hardware (that I supply) you then download the circuit to a Xilinx FPGA broad to check your Verilog tool set. You can buy the FPGA board or return it to me at the end of the class. The Xilinx DVDs are distributed with the permission of Xilinx.

It looks like PHP and XHTML/CSS have a lot of interest. Can we get those classes going?!
Dean Mao said
at 12:33 am on Oct 29, 2009
If there's enough interest, I could do a 1 day seminar on html/css. That's pretty easy to teach.
John Kutay said
at 4:36 pm on Oct 31, 2009
yeah that'd be cool. i know a bunch of people who want to do that class

I would love to teach a class in PHP5+ and MySQL 5.1. If people are interested in learning how to build real-world applications while learning intermediate to advanced PHP skills, this class would be for you. If you are interested please send me an email at scott@newfrontcreative.com, or ping me on twitter at @newfront. (reqs. xHTML, CSS, intermediate Javascript)

Hi, I am new to programming and CS, I majored in Finance but I have a great idea and I just want to get started on something. How do I sign up for a class? I'm not even sure which programming languages I need to know in oder to execute my idea.

I'm not a member, but will be at the Dojo for a few weeks, can I offer classes?
Matt Hancher said
at 11:31 am on Mar 8, 2010
Sebastian, as long as you're sponsored by a member and you go through the usual events sign-up process anyone can teach a class at the Dojo. I'm guessing that you you already know a member since you're planning on visiting for a while, but if not I'd suggest emailing the main hackerdojo mailing list and proposing your class topic(s). If anyone is excited about them, you'll probably get someone to offer to sponsor them.
