<div dir="ltr"><div><div><div><div><div><div>I think NB should be able to "accommodate" out of towners here on business...this war on sleeping is stupid. I dont want people "crashing" here either because NB has a reputation to uphold as a productive space, but that being said, I dont think we should put limitations on ourselves and we should be as hospitable as possible. Wherever this classicist tone is coming from, chill out.<br>
Some person napping in the hacker stacker does not impede MY work, nor should anyone really give a shit. Get back to work and stop griping about homeless hackers,dudes. It looks shitty when folks are laying about on the sofas and what not, thats why they built the "napping bay".<br>
</div>Not everyone has a cushy IT job, you ding bats so get over the possessive thing, and realize that NB is a developing entity unto itself...."if it aint hurtin nothing, leave it be".<br> Now, NB junkie hackers need to be more vigilant about leaving their works laying around....found a tie and rig in the bathroom just minutes before a youngster went in there. This is a far more disturbing "trend" than people eating food or taking a little nappie.<br>
</div>Gotta admit I was both suprised and pleased that "Sleeping has been sanctioned at NB" but frankly SHOCKED that people would "allow" heavy drug use (as long as your a member, anything goes,right?)<br>
</div>I AM NOT A "MEMBER" OF NB, BUT A PART (ITALICS) OF NB.<br></div>I am of the opinion that the whole "membership" thing is becoming obsolete, is limiting and encourages elitist, classicist mentality, aptly demonstrated by people who happen to have "homes" and typically manifest rather antiquated attitudes engendered by the techno-weenie/isolated/weirdo lifestyles of these struggling bobos. As for the Ack Memo...let your emotions cool before pressing "enter" or "send". I love that kind of stuff, but dude, most folks think that was kind of dickish, even though it was sort of neat. NB HAS been described IN PRINT and the MEDIA as an anarchist based collective that is all inclusive. Sure we have some offbeat characters, but the bottom line is that we are all SHARING the space, and should not waste time attempting to dominate the space by asserting status, anymore than we should allow tweakers to drain our energy and steal our stuff.<br>
