Chris-kun:

'''Schematics''' is a companion meetup for the sunday Schemers meet. As the sunday meet is currently more of a high-level casual discussion-group, what we're aiming for is more of a structured class, where the content each week is a custom presentation based upon who's showing that week and what problems they ran into during that week while working on a designated collaborative project for the group. Another main foci would be documenting all our findings which would result in a scheme book of sorts, where instead of having future schemers having to traverse the web and get their (often confusing) information from a variety of sources, everything would be compiled neatly and cleanly into one source where everything is easy to understand. This would serve as a handy reference for our existing members, and, if done properly, would immensely help any future schemers who catch wind of it.

== Projects ==
Please take a look at the following page, add any of your own ideas if you have 'em, and speak up on the mailing list or at the meet. Basic workflow is this: find the project you want to contribute to in the organization, and fork it. After you've made some changes you want to commit, send us a pull request. We'll go over the changes as a group, and possibly commit them into the main repo.

is done via github. After you sign up, send off an email to [[User:chris-kun|Chris]] and you'll be added to the '''schematics''' organization. Basic workflow goes like this: find the project you want to contribute to on the organization's page and fork it; after you've finalized the commit(s) you want to add, send us a pull request. We'll look over the changes as a group, and possibly commit them into the main repo.

Chris-kun:

Official, Semi-Official, one-off and other events at the Noisebridge space.

=Event Calendar=
Not all events make it onto this calendar. Many events only make it to the Discussion or Announcements [[Mailinglist | mailing lists]], [[IRC]] or in person at [[:Category:Meeting_Notes | Tuesday meetings]]. Best of all, Noisebridge is about people getting together at the space in San Francisco to do stuff... like in person. Some events just happen. Pay attention!

If you'd like to host an event yourself, we have advice on [[Hosting_an_Event | hosting an event]] at Noisebridge.

Event posters are encouraged to crosspost to the Google Calendar. View the [http://www.google.com/calendar/embed?src=vo3i3c0qtjnkjr2ojasd0ftt8s%40group.calendar.google.com&ctz=America/Los_Angeles Google Calendar], view the [http://www.google.com/calendar/feeds/vo3i3c0qtjnkjr2ojasd0ftt8s%40group.calendar.google.com/public/basic Google Calendar in XML], or the [http://www.google.com/calendar/ical/vo3i3c0qtjnkjr2ojasd0ftt8s%40group.calendar.google.com/public/basic.ics Google Calendar in ical] format.

To post Google Calendar entries for your event, contact a Noisebridge member for access.

(Wouldn't it be great if there were a gCal mediawiki plugin so crossposting wasn't needed? Do you know of a good one? Help us!) <- working on this, need to upgrade Mediawiki in order to use some plugins.

*'''May 13th, 19:00''' - Build a Contact Mic with Hackerspace Rock Band CMKT 4. All the way from Chicago, the band is eager to teach you the art of contact microphone building. Here is our standard class description:
**At our workshops, everyone who buys a kit ($15 per workshop attendee, includes a kit; $10 apiece for additional kits) will learn to solder. They will also work with hot glue, zip ties, shielded cable, a piezo electric disc and recycled bottle-caps to make a fully functioning Bottle-Cap Contact Microphone. These microphones pick up physical vibrations and transduce the vibrations into an electrical audio signal. Students are encouraged to bring instruments and found objects to listen to through the microphones.
**There is a dry-time involved in the materials we use, however, during that time, we will put on a brief performance for the attendees. For the performance, we will require the use of a PA.
**You can hear more about us at http://www.facebook.com/cmkt4 http://www.myspace.com/cmkt4 and http://cmkt4.bandcamp.com/, we have performance videos at http://www.vimeo.com/channels/cremedementia. Follow us on twitter @cmkt4.

A companion meetup for the current sunday Schemers meet. As the sunday meet is currently more of a high-level casual discussion-group, what I'm aiming for is more of a structured class, where the content each week is a custom presentation based upon who's showing that week and what problems they ran into during that week while working on a designated collaborative project for the group. Another main foci would be documenting all our findings which would result in a scheme book of sorts, where instead of having future schemers having to traverse the web and get their (often confusing) information from a variety of sources, everything would be compiled neatly and cleanly into one source where everything is easy to understand. This would serve as a handy reference for our existing members, and, if done properly, would immensely help any future schemers who catch wind of it.

We're currently thinking of saturday, but thursday is also a possibility if that doesn't work out. If you're interested please speak up on the mailing list!

An open-ended meetup for any type of gaming, whether it be board games, trading cards, or super smash bros. =D

We're currently aiming for friday but if you have another day preference let us know (via -discuss is fine.)

I have the following board games and could donate most of 'em to the space if there was enough interest:
* Caylus
* Game of Thrones
* Age of Steam
* Starfarers of Catan
* EVE: Conquests
* Starcraft: The Board Game
* Small World (no expansions... yet ;)
* Apples to Apples

Scheme/Procedures

Chris-kun:

== Lambdas ==
* Can also be viewed as anonymous procedures.
* Has the following syntax:
<pre>(lambda <args> <expressions>)</pre>
where <expressions> is one or more, well, expressions. Only the last expression's value is returned. 
<args> is your variable definitions, which can take the following forms:
* '''var''' - all arguments are put into this single variable.
* '''(var[1] var[2] ... )''' - specifies a fixed number of arguments.
* '''(var[1] var[2] ... . var[n])''' - a space-delimited period before the final argument specifies the remaining args (if any) to be put into a list under that variable.
 
== Lexical Scoping ==
=== fluid-let ===
Modifies ''existing global variables'' instead of introducing new lexical ones. Values are reset at the end of the expression.

'''eqv?''' - for general-purpose use

We're forming a study group to learn about the scheme programming language
and fundamental CS concepts using the classic book SICP as a study guide. The full text of this book is freely available online, and we have a physical copy on our bookshelf as well. We meet on Sundays at 2pm in the Church classroom of the [https://noisebridge.net/wiki/Getting_Here Noisebridge] hackerspace. Please monitor the [https://www.noisebridge.net/mailman/listinfo/noisebridge-discuss Noisebridge Discuss] mailing list for updates (read the [https://www.noisebridge.net/pipermail/noisebridge-discuss/ archives] if you'd rather not subscribe to this somewhat high-volume list).

There is a [http://twitter.com/noisebridge noisebridge account on twitter]. It's usually used for assery, full or half, but announcements about events, various links and meetings are not out of the question. Feel free to follow us there.

To post to the Noisebridge Twitter account, join our [[IRC]] channel and type in "noisebot, help twitter" for further instructions.

Also, the noisebridge account follows various members who opt-in. This allows for a centralized way of finding all of us who wish to be found, for various twitter-related projects. Here's the opt-in list (If you're a noisebridge person and want to be followed, please put your name and link your twitter username at the bottom).
