<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Noisebridge exists and was founded to
empower any person so desiring to become more in control of
technology.<br>
We can absolutely exclude people from the space. Not every
activity that could be called hacking is allowed or tolerated.
Don't allow yourself to be manipulated by word games. You're not a
jerk for enforcing boundaries. <br>
<br>
Instead of saying <i>Noisebridge is for </i><i>Hackers</i>, try
<i>Noisebridge is for hacking</i>. You can discuss a person's
actions without judging their abilities or value as a human being.

If Neo and Morepheus use the space as a crash pad, I will ask them
to leave. But Randall the crusty street kid can come and build
analog circuits all day, that's cool. You see how that works. <br>

Kind of. It was formed with the idea of merging
different disciplines such as art and technology,
more specifically, for example, sewing and
electronics.
The definition of "hack" has eluded us to the
point that there seems no useful definition that
lets us exclude anyone on that basis.
