Questions about dogs

[Vinnie Chapman]

I didn't stop by and say hi to everyone because I had my dog with me and
was not sure if this was appropriate. My questions is, what are the
rules about dogs in the space?

I think they would need to be on a leash. We had lucy in the space a
few days ago. and Brian was bringing his service dog into the space.

I would love to see puppies. Unless someone is deathly allergic.

What kind of dog is it?

I would imagine if you had a little tiny thing that nobody would complain, however I would never bring my gigantic yellow labrador in, because she would jump on everything and try to play fetch with the tools.

Like most things, there isn't really a "rule" on this.

I don't have a problem with well-behaved dogs visiting the space.

how about these two?

Service dogs are always ok for me.  But other dogs, I'm not a fan of.  You just never know how well they are trained and behaved, and some people can't handle their own dogs.

I'm an animal lover but personally don't think they are a good fit for our kind of space.

So...I'm a huge dog lover.  Personally I would love to see peoples' dogs because I think that dogs are awesome.

But if the dogs were being disruptive, they would have to leave with their owner, so be prepared to have somebody tell you to leave.

Also be sensitive to the fact that some people are terrified of dogs, and forcing them to not feel comfortable is totes not okay.

I'd say this falls under the general rule of:

"If you make a mess, clean it up."

Note that the "mess" may not be a physical one (although that would obviously  be included). 

"Mess" would cover the dog misbehaving or making someone uncomfortable- in which case the only practical way to "clean it up" would be to remove the dog - and possibly yourself.

For most cases, this same rule can be applied to kids. 

[Jacob Rosenthal]

I think everyone else already nailed it but I would put it this way.

Of course you can sneak a dog into the space for a bit. Should you bring your dog down every thursday? Probably not.

Man, it's like we had this discussion without having to have this discussion. I feel strangely fulfilled!

https://www.noisebridge.net/pipermail/noisebridge-discuss/2012-September/032506.html

I think it really depends on who's around at the time and what they're doing. Just ask and be sensitive; we're a workplace not a kennel club :)

What's "noisbridge"

And as I expected, it is unlikely that I will be able to introduce my two guys to the group, as a quick 'pop around the corner' to take them home again is not practical.

One of the first hackerspaces in the US, descended directly from the mothership hackerspace, C-Base.

Hackerspace Lineage Hour: if you cross Noisebridge's totally-open-to-everyone, 100%-consensus-or-bust philosophy with NYC Resistor's invite-only, come-during-public-nights philosophy, you get something approximating HeatSync. Open enough to be noob-friendly and grassroots enough to keep egos in check, closed enough to have a focus and not be held hostage by well-meaning members who want to teach yoga classes in the space.

If you're going to bring them, do it soon. Look at the size of those paws...

Bring crates and if needed park them out back (assuming the weather is tolerable).

[Mike Bushroe]

Well, it makes sense that each self-evolving hacker space would be strongly influenced by its native urban culture. If I were to start slinging stereo types, I would consider that a NYC hacker space would be influenced by the fast paced, in-your-face lifestyle, and prevalence of many limited membership clubs, organizations, unions, political groups, exclusive restaurant, etc. On the other extreme, San Francisco seems to still have its feet in the sixties, and I would expect the more flower child, open air, anybody come in structure there. Leaving us both geographically and sociologically somewhere in between. Kind of comfy here in the middle, too.

[Ryan Rix]

Does that mean heatsync labs should have more guns and sprawl?

[Robert Bell]

As well as pets and taxidermists!

It means we need to add a swimming pool and a power boat. And since WiFi is like mass transit, we should all be moaning and complaining about having to share it. We should instead be each demanding our own router and direct connection. In fact, we need to raise a Bond Issue to put in a gigantic, 100 port router so each one of use can directly plug in our own routers, to share our 100Kbit connection to the internet. And only one laptop per table. We need to squeeze all the machine shop, wood shop, laser cutter and work benches to the very back to make more room for tables so that we can each have our own table. Of course, eventually the tables will be 24x36 inches each. And grass. We need an indoor, grass golf course, or at least a putting green. And gun belts for our Android phones. And a slot machine, with a dotted line around it saying 'Indian Reservation'. And a retirement corner with pencils, paper, and slide rules. and .   .   .
