Here's the idea,

You work in tech. You're in the NYC area.
You care about "people" issues. You think the hardest problem in computing is "people".
You are interested in how we work. How to structure work. How to work together.
How to help your colleagues succeed.

And...

There's so much to learn:

                Installing python cx_oracle on Ubuntu
              
          
    First of all, it just seems like doing anything with Oracle is obnoxiously painful for no good reason. It's the nature of the beast I suppose. cx_oracle is a python module that allows you to connect to an Oracle Database and issue queries, inserts, updates..usual jazz.
Linux

Step 1:
sudo apt-get install build-essential unzip python-dev libaio-dev

                Red Hook Initiative mesh update: first edition
              
          
    This is the first of periodic updates I'll make as I gather information.
About

Internet connectivity is largely out in Red Hook. (Open question: How out?) A collection of initiatives are working together to rapidly build infrastructure to provide free, reliable Internet connectivity to Red Hook.
The goal of this project is twofold: to provide Internet connectivity in the short-term for the disaster relief effort, and to create an infrastructure for future disaster responses.
