HR-2600: Meeting Summary for October 3, 2008
by enferex on Oct.04, 2008, under hr2600
Wow, we held the fort till the mall locked us in! In attendance this month was (clockwise from my sitting position): Andrew, Sunpuke, Remad, Walcy, Tele, Dave, Ninja Gumby, and myself. So what was discussed one might ask?
Imagine a bunch of minds set on pseudo-random. Let the neurons collide with those thoughts of others and see what surfaces. One might be surprised that a chain of thoughts based on memory-less state might surface (i.e. Markov Chain), however I do believe that the previous states have a slight influence on further topics, as is the case when some strong comics perform. In other words, it seems talented comics will make a joke and then refer to that past hilarity to increase the effect of a more recent joke (e.g. not really memory-less). In fact, there was so much discussion that keeping track of such, is really outside the scope of these summaries, and possibly a cop-out so no one has to take notes. It is just hangin’ out. We do not impose subjects for conversation, we let the potential randomness of our neurons decide what should be talked about. What’s interesting though, is that no one seems to carry any kinda of paper or writing device. Such seems to be a limited quantity amongst the attendees this month, as Andrew found out.

Love the reviews Matt. I haven’t been able to make i to 2600 regularly so it’s nice to hear about the other geekery going on in the area.

It was good conversations and was nice to attend the meeting/gathering of minds once again.Even once the mall was closed, most geeks met up at other various locations to watch presentations/videos on security related materials. One in particular was rfid and related security items.
Rock On,
