== What to bring? ==
A computer: We have wifi at the space, but we don't have extra computers floating around. If you have trouble bringing a laptop, talk to us before the event and we could try to find one but we need to know beforehand (preferably a few days).
A kind attitude: Everyone is expected to [[Be excellent to each other]] at the space. On top of that, we'd like to follow [https://www.recurse.com/manual#sec-environment The Recurse Center User's Manual] on social rules. Their social rules "are designed to curtail specific behavior we've found to be destructive to a supportive, productive, and fun learning environment", and I think they also apply to events at hackerspaces.
An interest in learning python.
