this past Saturday | |||
21:09 < Bluestreak> Great picture! | |||
21:09 < Bluestreak> Very sexy! | |||
21:10 < noe> :D Thanks Lucia | |||
21:10 < srevilak> It was a good program. Aaron was relaxed and very fluid | |||
21:11 < noe> Aaron is making definite progress. :D | |||
21:12 < noe> The intent is that this Saturday he'd like to take a group | |||
out canvassing. | |||
21:13 < noe> It would be awesome if we could get a better turnout for | |||
his campaign event next week Tuesday (8/30 6-9:30pm Somerville Armory) | |||
21:13 < noe> If people know of outlets that may be interested in | |||
interviewing Aaron, feel free to mention them. | |||
21:14 < igel> yeah def | |||
21:14 < Bluestreak> There is a Crypto party Sat? | |||
21:14 < noe> I think we have sent the regular round of emails, but | |||
phone calls may be easiest. It's been difficult for the campaign to | |||
make phone calls during the work day so if there is anyone interested, | |||
please let me know. | |||
21:14 < Bluestreak> Jason and I will be at the Tues night thing | |||
21:15 < Bluestreak> I will… you have numbers? | |||
21:15 < noe> We have more people listed as going on FB than before | |||
21:15 < noe> So, I feel like there is an intent to go . . . | |||
21:16 < noe> I will be there, as will the rest of the committee | |||
21:16 < Bluestreak> About Sat canvassing tho | |||
21:16 < Bluestreak> There is a conflict? | |||
21:16 < Bluestreak> The CP in Dorchester? | |||
21:16 < noe> Yes, I think you're right. | |||
21:16 < Bluestreak> It ends at 5 | |||
21:17 < Bluestreak> Ahoy! | |||
21:17 < moses> ahoy | |||
21:17 < moses> hi all | |||
21:17 < igel> hi | |||
21:17 < noe> The Crypto Party in Dorchester at the Public Library is | |||
1-5pm, and canvassing is usually a 2pmish start. | |||
21:17 < srevilak> hi moses | |||
21:17 < noe> ahoy moses! | |||
21:18 < srevilak> I believe that Jamie and Aaron are covering the | |||
cryptoparty | |||
21:18 < srevilak> I believe that Jamie and Ben are covering the | |||
cryptoparty | |||
21:18 < srevilak> (sorry, Ben, not Aaron) | |||
21:19 < noe> Yes, I think you're right Steve. | |||
21:19 < srevilak> Podcast of Saturday's Young Jurks: | |||
http://wemfradio.com/2016/08/20/young-jurks-8-20-16/ | |||
21:19 < papegaai> Title: WEMF Radio Radio Now! » Young Jurks presented | |||
by Canna Care Docs: 8.20.16 (at wemfradio.com) | |||
21:19 < noe> good link! | |||
21:20 < noe> We have a general discussion of ballot measures on the | |||
Agenda. | |||
21:21 < noe> Here is the ballotpedia URL for all four questions: | |||
https://ballotpedia.org/Massachusetts_2016_ballot_measures | |||
21:21 < papegaai> Title: Massachusetts 2016 ballot measures - Ballotpedia | |||
(at ballotpedia.org) | |||
21:22 < noe> Allowing Question 1 to pass will allow the Gaming Commission | |||
to issue one additional slots license. | |||
21:23 < igel> nice i really liked that last mid-term elections i think | |||
it was.. you put it together right? really helped me/others out | |||
21:23 < igel> err, not this site, but another one. may be it was by email? | |||
21:24 < noe> Probably email! I think there is a lot of interesting | |||
related content about these questions, mostly about who funded petition | |||
gathering and such, but yes. | |||
21:25 < noe> Most of the related information on ballotpedia and other | |||
websites doesn't have that immediately available. | |||
21:25 < Bluestreak> I move that we review the questions this week | |||
21:25 < Bluestreak> then vote on the party postition next week | |||
21:26 < noe> That sounds reasonable. Does anyone else second? | |||
21:26 < igel> for sure | |||
21:26 < srevilak> second | |||
21:26 < noe> So moved! | |||
21:26 < Bluestreak> I also move that we (I) write a supporting blog post | |||
for our position | |||
21:27 < noe> That is a great movement. I second it heartily. | |||
21:27 < Bluestreak> We can use a Pirate pad for everyone to put in their | |||
two cents | |||
21:27 < srevilak> sounds fine to me | |||
21:27 < igel> def need to review | |||
21:27 < Bluestreak> I sent only two things to the list, the ballotopedia | |||
link | |||
21:28 < Bluestreak> and the OCPF report | |||
21:28 < Bluestreak> all the MSM articles on the questions have BIAS | |||
21:28 < igel> shoot, i need to update my email to the list | |||
21:28 < Bluestreak> Ew bias! | |||
21:28 < moses> muhahaha | |||
21:29 < noe> sooo much bias. | |||
21:30 < Bluestreak> I advise you to consult many sources | |||
21:30 < Bluestreak> I posted the John Oliver POV to the MPP FB page. | |||
21:30 < noe> PiratePad for 2016 Ballot Questions: | |||
http://piratepad.net/r7PEC7Winx | |||
21:30 < papegaai> Title: PiratePad: r7PEC7Winx (at piratepad.net) | |||
21:30 < Bluestreak> He does NOT touch on any problems in MA charter | |||
schools | |||
21:30 < Bluestreak> TY Noe | |||
21:31 < moses> I was also gonna suggest that | |||
21:33 < srevilak> On to CCTV map? | |||
21:34 < noe> Yes please | |||
21:35 < noe> People are using Open Street Map to update | |||
https://cctv.masspirates.org/ | |||
21:35 < papegaai> Title: The CCTV map (extracted from OpenStreetMap) | |||
(at cctv.masspirates.org) | |||
21:35 < srevilak> Jamie has been the lead on this effort | |||
21:35 < noe> There are nearly 1,000 mapped in the Metro Boston area alone. | |||
21:35 < srevilak> as far as I know, he's just using OSM's phone app to | |||
add camera locations (Infrastructure > Surveillance Camera) | |||
21:36 < Bluestreak> We need him to teach us how to do what he does | |||
21:36 < Bluestreak> It’s one thing to post about it... | |||
21:36 < Bluestreak> It’s another to have a class. | |||
21:36 < noe> That is a wonderful idea. | |||
21:36 < Bluestreak> I will post that to the list | |||
21:36 < srevilak> A dedicated phone app would be great (to automate | |||
the proess) | |||
21:36 < Bluestreak> So he can mull it over. | |||
21:37 < Bluestreak> sheesh is such a thing available? | |||
21:37 < noe> He has done live demos in person, but an educational event | |||
would be cool. | |||
21:37 < JTIII> Steve, I emailed you and James about this idea earlier | |||
today. I was thinking about floating this idea to my org (FFTF) for | |||
us to either promote the site, or even better, build a companion phone | |||
app to view and add aditional camera locations. Nothing set in stone, | |||
but I am discussing the idea with a few people at FFTF. Any interest | |||
in collaboration? | |||
21:37 < srevilak> JTIII: sorry for not responding (had a meeting at | |||
town hall) | |||
21:38 < srevilak> but I think there's definitely room for collaboration | |||
21:38 < Bluestreak> How long do you think it would take to create such | |||
an app? | |||
21:38 < JTIII> no worries! :) | |||
21:38 < noe> I think that's a great idea! | |||
21:38 < srevilak> Jamie has mapped hundreds of cameras, so he's probably | |||
the best one to comment on workflow/how to make the process easy | |||
21:39 < JTIII> then there is my much more far fetched idea of turning | |||
it into an alternate reality game like Pokemon Go! (but that's another | |||
conversation, for another day :P) | |||
21:39 < srevilak> Heh, instead of catch the poekmon, you run from the | |||
camera :) | |||
21:39 < JTIII> I am not sure how long it would take. I would need to | |||
discuss it with our dev more, but there is some interest. | |||
21:39 < Bluestreak> This is the joke we were making at MIT | |||
21:40 < noe> CCTV No! | |||
21:40 < Bluestreak> While everyone was playing Pokemon Go Jamie was | |||
mapping cameras | |||
21:40 < Bluestreak> lol | |||
21:40 < JTIII> We would definitely need some help here and there. It | |||
sounds like Jamie might be able to fill in some gaps we were seeing in | |||
the development. | |||
21:41 < igel> can we identify cameras via their MAC address? | |||
21:42 < srevilak> igel: to get mac, you'd need to be on the same subnet, | |||
no? | |||
21:42 < igel> we could automate the discovery if thats possible.. with | |||
wifi.. pretty much. | |||
21:42 < noe> i think the map is strictly geography right now. | |||
21:43 < Bluestreak> Perhaps the proposed app is a subject for the next | |||
IT meeting? | |||
21:43 < srevilak> here's the map: https://cctv.masspirates.org/ | |||
21:43 < igel> i dont believe so , if the cameras are IP cameras, then | |||
we should be able to see it | |||
21:43 < papegaai> Title: The CCTV map (extracted from OpenStreetMap) | |||
(at cctv.masspirates.org) | |||
21:43 < Bluestreak> Which is going to be when? | |||
21:44 < JTIII> I would be happy to attend, and I can bring try to get | |||
out CTO to come as well. | |||
21:44 < igel> may be there is a list. i think this is very possible | |||
21:44 < JTIII> our* | |||
21:44 < srevilak> I think that Jamie and JTIII should get together, | |||
and discuss parameters for collaboratoin | |||
21:44 < srevilak> Next IT meeting has not been scheduled | |||
21:44 < Bluestreak> Can we do that now? | |||
21:45 < srevilak> Bluestreak: two of the main IT meeting attendees aren't | |||
here this evening | |||
21:45 < Bluestreak> Gotcha | |||
21:45 < noe> They will be at the CP, so maybe someone can ask them at | |||
that time? | |||
21:45 < srevilak> I think this is something we can discuss over email | |||
21:45 < srevilak> no? | |||
21:45 < noe> yes! | |||
21:46 < noe> that will be faster. | |||
21:46 < noe> should we move on to talk about Freedom Rally? | |||
21:46 < srevilak> I've there's a big promotion behind | |||
cctv.masspirates.org, we may want to put it behind deflect, or similar | |||
anti-DDOS service | |||
21:46 < srevilak> but that's topic for later discussion | |||
21:47 < srevilak> Sorry, as noe said, Freedom Rally | |||
21:47 < noe> Reminder that it will be two days again 9/17-9/18 | |||
21:48 < noe> We have a table reserved and would love to see people during | |||

21:48 < noe> Additionally, he intends to drop by the table, too. | |||

It's been difficult for the campaign to make phone calls during the work day so if there is anyone interested, please let me know. 21:14 < Bluestreak> Jason and I will be at the Tues night thing 21:15 < Bluestreak> I will… you have numbers? 21:15 < noe> We have more people listed as going on FB than before 21:15 < noe> So, I feel like there is an intent to go . . . 21:16 < noe> I will be there, as will the rest of the committee 21:16 < Bluestreak> About Sat canvassing tho 21:16 < Bluestreak> There is a conflict? 21:16 < Bluestreak> The CP in Dorchester? 21:16 < noe> Yes, I think you're right. 21:16 < Bluestreak> It ends at 5 21:17 < Bluestreak> Ahoy! 21:17 < moses> ahoy 21:17 < moses> hi all 21:17 < igel> hi 21:17 < noe> The Crypto Party in Dorchester at the Public Library is 1-5pm, and canvassing is usually a 2pmish start. 21:17 < srevilak> hi moses 21:17 < noe> ahoy moses! 21:18 < srevilak> I believe that Jamie and Aaron are covering the cryptoparty 21:18 < srevilak> I believe that Jamie and Ben are covering the cryptoparty 21:18 < srevilak> (sorry, Ben, not Aaron) 21:19 < noe> Yes, I think you're right Steve. 21:19 < srevilak> Podcast of Saturday's Young Jurks: http://wemfradio.com/2016/08/20/young-jurks-8-20-16/ 21:19 < papegaai> Title: WEMF Radio Radio Now! » Young Jurks presented by Canna Care Docs: 8.20.16 (at wemfradio.com) 21:19 < noe> good link! 21:20 < noe> We have a general discussion of ballot measures on the Agenda. 21:21 < noe> Here is the ballotpedia URL for all four questions: https://ballotpedia.org/Massachusetts_2016_ballot_measures 21:21 < papegaai> Title: Massachusetts 2016 ballot measures - Ballotpedia (at ballotpedia.org) 21:22 < noe> Allowing Question 1 to pass will allow the Gaming Commission to issue one additional slots license. 21:23 < igel> nice i really liked that last mid-term elections i think it was.. you put it together right? really helped me/others out 21:23 < igel> err, not this site, but another one. may be it was by email? 21:24 < noe> Probably email! I think there is a lot of interesting related content about these questions, mostly about who funded petition gathering and such, but yes. 21:25 < noe> Most of the related information on ballotpedia and other websites doesn't have that immediately available. 21:25 < Bluestreak> I move that we review the questions this week 21:25 < Bluestreak> then vote on the party postition next week 21:26 < noe> That sounds reasonable. Does anyone else second? 21:26 < igel> for sure 21:26 < srevilak> second 21:26 < noe> So moved! 21:26 < Bluestreak> I also move that we (I) write a supporting blog post for our position 21:27 < noe> That is a great movement. I second it heartily. 21:27 < Bluestreak> We can use a Pirate pad for everyone to put in their two cents 21:27 < srevilak> sounds fine to me 21:27 < igel> def need to review 21:27 < Bluestreak> I sent only two things to the list, the ballotopedia link 21:28 < Bluestreak> and the OCPF report 21:28 < Bluestreak> all the MSM articles on the questions have BIAS 21:28 < igel> shoot, i need to update my email to the list 21:28 < Bluestreak> Ew bias! 21:28 < moses> muhahaha 21:29 < noe> sooo much bias. 21:30 < Bluestreak> I advise you to consult many sources 21:30 < Bluestreak> I posted the John Oliver POV to the MPP FB page. 21:30 < noe> PiratePad for 2016 Ballot Questions: http://piratepad.net/r7PEC7Winx 21:30 < papegaai> Title: PiratePad: r7PEC7Winx (at piratepad.net) 21:30 < Bluestreak> He does NOT touch on any problems in MA charter schools 21:30 < Bluestreak> TY Noe 21:31 < moses> I was also gonna suggest that 21:33 < srevilak> On to CCTV map? 21:34 < noe> Yes please 21:35 < noe> People are using Open Street Map to update https://cctv.masspirates.org/ 21:35 < papegaai> Title: The CCTV map (extracted from OpenStreetMap) (at cctv.masspirates.org) 21:35 < srevilak> Jamie has been the lead on this effort 21:35 < noe> There are nearly 1,000 mapped in the Metro Boston area alone. 21:35 < srevilak> as far as I know, he's just using OSM's phone app to add camera locations (Infrastructure > Surveillance Camera) 21:36 < Bluestreak> We need him to teach us how to do what he does 21:36 < Bluestreak> It’s one thing to post about it... 21:36 < Bluestreak> It’s another to have a class. 21:36 < noe> That is a wonderful idea. 21:36 < Bluestreak> I will post that to the list 21:36 < srevilak> A dedicated phone app would be great (to automate the proess) 21:36 < Bluestreak> So he can mull it over. 21:37 < Bluestreak> sheesh is such a thing available? 21:37 < noe> He has done live demos in person, but an educational event would be cool. 21:37 < JTIII> Steve, I emailed you and James about this idea earlier today. I was thinking about floating this idea to my org (FFTF) for us to either promote the site, or even better, build a companion phone app to view and add aditional camera locations. Nothing set in stone, but I am discussing the idea with a few people at FFTF. Any interest in collaboration? 21:37 < srevilak> JTIII: sorry for not responding (had a meeting at town hall) 21:38 < srevilak> but I think there's definitely room for collaboration 21:38 < Bluestreak> How long do you think it would take to create such an app? 21:38 < JTIII> no worries! :) 21:38 < noe> I think that's a great idea! 21:38 < srevilak> Jamie has mapped hundreds of cameras, so he's probably the best one to comment on workflow/how to make the process easy 21:39 < JTIII> then there is my much more far fetched idea of turning it into an alternate reality game like Pokemon Go! (but that's another conversation, for another day :P) 21:39 < srevilak> Heh, instead of catch the poekmon, you run from the camera :) 21:39 < JTIII> I am not sure how long it would take. I would need to discuss it with our dev more, but there is some interest. 21:39 < Bluestreak> This is the joke we were making at MIT 21:40 < noe> CCTV No! 21:40 < Bluestreak> While everyone was playing Pokemon Go Jamie was mapping cameras 21:40 < Bluestreak> lol 21:40 < JTIII> We would definitely need some help here and there. It sounds like Jamie might be able to fill in some gaps we were seeing in the development. 21:41 < igel> can we identify cameras via their MAC address? 21:42 < srevilak> igel: to get mac, you'd need to be on the same subnet, no? 21:42 < igel> we could automate the discovery if thats possible.. with wifi.. pretty much. 21:42 < noe> i think the map is strictly geography right now. 21:43 < Bluestreak> Perhaps the proposed app is a subject for the next IT meeting? 21:43 < srevilak> here's the map: https://cctv.masspirates.org/ 21:43 < igel> i dont believe so , if the cameras are IP cameras, then we should be able to see it 21:43 < papegaai> Title: The CCTV map (extracted from OpenStreetMap) (at cctv.masspirates.org) 21:43 < Bluestreak> Which is going to be when? 21:44 < JTIII> I would be happy to attend, and I can bring try to get out CTO to come as well. 21:44 < igel> may be there is a list. i think this is very possible 21:44 < JTIII> our* 21:44 < srevilak> I think that Jamie and JTIII should get together, and discuss parameters for collaboratoin 21:44 < srevilak> Next IT meeting has not been scheduled 21:44 < Bluestreak> Can we do that now? 21:45 < srevilak> Bluestreak: two of the main IT meeting attendees aren't here this evening 21:45 < Bluestreak> Gotcha 21:45 < noe> They will be at the CP, so maybe someone can ask them at that time? 21:45 < srevilak> I think this is something we can discuss over email 21:45 < srevilak> no? 21:45 < noe> yes! 21:46 < noe> that will be faster. 21:46 < noe> should we move on to talk about Freedom Rally? 21:46 < srevilak> I've there's a big promotion behind cctv.masspirates.org, we may want to put it behind deflect, or similar anti-DDOS service 21:46 < srevilak> but that's topic for later discussion 21:47 < srevilak> Sorry, as noe said, Freedom Rally 21:47 < noe> Reminder that it will be two days again 9/17-9/18 21:48 < noe> We have a table reserved and would love to see people during the day. 21:48 < srevilak> I put together volunteer signup form: https://masspirates.org/crew/civicrm/event/info?reset=1&id=17 21:48 < papegaai> Title: Table with us at the Freedom Rally | Mass Pirates Crew (at masspirates.org) 21:48 < noe> If people want to meet Aaron James, he'll be talking and doing some outreach. 21:48 < noe> Additionally, he intends to drop by the table, too. 21:49 < Bluestreak> Jason and James are going to do set up on Friday night 21:49 < noe> Thanks for the volunteer form! 21:49 < Bluestreak> Jason should be there all day both days. 21:50 < JTIII> Just signed up to help out 21:50 < noe> Hooray! Feel free to spread the link to others. The more the merrier. 21:50 < srevilak> Thanks, JTIII 21:50 < JTIII> I can be available all day if need be 21:51 < Bluestreak> That would be awesome! 21:51 < JTIII> set up / break down, whatever is needed 21:51 < JTIII> I'll share it too 21:52 < noe> It should be a great event. 21:52 < noe> Moving to PirateCon recording status: Audio from PirateCon has been posted regularly to the blog. 21:52 < noe> I still have video files, but haven't had time to edit or post. 21:53 < srevilak> I wasn't able to finish Maya's foia talk this weekend; it will go up next weekend 21:54 < srevilak> This summer has definitely been our best summer for views: https://archive.org/details/masspirates&tab=about 21:54 < papegaai> Title: Massachusetts Pirate Party : Free Audio : Download & Streaming : Internet Archive (at archive.org) 21:54 < Bluestreak> OK for setup and breakdown we will be in touch… can send me your email? 21:54 < noe> I think Maya's foia talk was brilliant, and I hope people will enjoy it. 21:55 < JTIII> You asking me <Bluestreak>> 21:55 < Bluestreak> yes pls 21:55 < Bluestreak> Email me you ph number 21:55 < Bluestreak> so J and J can text to coordinate 21:55 < Bluestreak> EMAIL REDACTED 21:56 < noe> We have one more item on the Agenda about a post elections conference geared towards getting people to run for office 21:56 < Bluestreak> Was that going to be a fund raiser? 21:56 < noe> Tentatively, its scheduled for 11/12. We can make that a fundraiser, it may be a good idea. 21:56 < srevilak> Bluestreak: no; more skill share about running for local office 21:56 < Bluestreak> OK 21:57 < srevilak> We have democracy center reserved from 12:30 - 5pm on Nov 12th 21:57 < srevilak> Jamie was working on another event -- Springfield, IIRC 21:58 < srevilak> We had also discussed Amherst at one point, I think 21:58 < moses> yesss 21:58 < Bluestreak> Can we push that off to next week? 21:58 < moses> I belive that was me 21:58 < moses> actually, relevent bit insofar as it involves me, if i may? 21:58 < Bluestreak> The Spfld event that is 21:58 < Bluestreak> ok 21:59 < noe> Bluestreak: I think we're nearly at time, so we can push that to next week. 21:59 < Bluestreak> Just meant since James isn’t here 21:59 < Bluestreak> that too 21:59 < noe> That's all the Agenda business, does anyone have pressing things they want to mention? 21:59 < srevilak> moses: if you have an update, please share (or if no update, that's okay too) 21:59 < Bluestreak> Remember! 22:00 < Bluestreak> The vote on the questions positions will be next week! 22:00 < Bluestreak> Please make your decisions and be here to vote! 22:00 < moses> yes 22:00 < noe> Feel free to add to the discussions on the PiratePad: http://piratepad.net/r7PEC7Winx 22:00 < papegaai> Title: PiratePad: r7PEC7Winx (at piratepad.net) 22:01 < moses> just that I got a new job and I'm moving to the other side of the sate 22:01 < moses> state 22:01 < srevilak> Oh wow, congrats (I hope) 22:01 < Bluestreak> Which side? 22:01 < Bluestreak> East side? 22:01 < noe> congrats on the new job! i am sorry about moving, because moving is usually terrible. 22:02 < moses> Martha's Vinyard 22:03 < srevilak> wow, when you said other side of the state, you weren't kidding :) 22:03 < Bluestreak> lol 22:03 < noe> O_o 22:03 < Bluestreak> Also very hard to reach 22:03 < moses> yuuuuuup. 22:04 < JTIII> Should I just email Jamie in our thread about the app <srevilak>? 22:04 < srevilak> JTIII: sounds good 22:04 < noe> (we are beyond time so if people want to disperse that is cool) 22:04 < noe> srevilak: could you post the minutes? 22:04 < srevilak> motion to adjourn 22:04 < srevilak> noe: yes 22:04 < Bluestreak> 2nd 22:04 < Bluestreak> aye
