Just announced! Join us next week for a Tuesday Talk by member Dave Schwinn on the highs, lows, and hisses of caring for Madagascar hissing cockroaches as a maker.

From Dave:

Here are Melania and Stormy. They are Madagascar Hissing Cockroaches, or Hissers. Come meet them and learn some fun factoids about roaches and keeping them as pets. The discussion will also include some of the electronics projects that I am working on in order to give them a comfy place to live.

Next week, join us for our Tuesday talk with member Adam Simoyi! You may know his work from Gun4IR, OpenFIRE, and a deep love for the arcade machines in our space. Get ready and hyped for an unserious approach to the ups, downs and curveballs of creating and contributing for open source spaces.

This Tuesday! Stop putting up blinders to your problems and attack your to do list. Come listen to Lisa's Tiny Tuesday Talk about Trello and parallel work on the things you have been procrastinating. All to-do lists welcome!
