Talk series
- Next up is Professor Hoe (Reconfigurable Logic) this coming Wednesday.
- Pizza order is the same as last week.
2 cheese, 2 pep, 2 spinach & feta, 2 cheeseburger, 2 ranch steak
- GHS wants to give a tech talk Wednesday 11 April (20:00-21:00), we can put up flyers for them.
- Thinking about changing the times for talks; 8-9pm on a weeknight may be a late for a lot of students. Still need to discuss what time might be best in order to avoid conflicts with classes and labs.
Talk schedule (and presenters) can be found here.
Shutdowns
- tparenti has poked them to tell them we need more than a couple hours of warning
- Next shutdown "around April 3rd" (the earliest date they would have all parts they need for the next repairs)
- Hoping to not have more shutdowns after that until after Commencement
- Good news is that practice makes procedures, so shutdowns of machine room are getting smoother. May be helpful to have an actual written procedure set for emergency shutdowns/start-ups.
Purchases
- Hard disk hasn't been ordered yet; tjjohans will be making a PCard appointment.
- Three-phase power adapters (for upgrades to room) being looked into
- 0xDEADBEEF
- Going to do a Costco run and allocate the money out of Gift
- Proposed date: Saturday afternoon (12:00-14:00), 28 April.
- This is the weekend immediately after Carnival, so we should advertise in the week in between.
- tjjohans will recreate the poster
- We have Table 1 (outside the UC).
- Tartan File Server
- Some corruption has happened, and not the political kind
- grantwu wants to drop by this coming Saturday to address this; we should reach out to the Tartan admin to get explicit authorization
