[Noisebridge-discuss] why is sleeping at noisebridge a problem?

[Jake]

Charles you have assumed too much about me.  I never said that people 
should be strapped to beds or given drugs they don't consent to, although 
I do think there are extreme situations where strapping someone down is 
better (for them) than the alternative.

Also you're wrong suggesting that I "stigmatize, become a doctor over 
night and tell those who tried that they are unworthy for whatever 
reason."

I am not going to try to discuss this with you further but I felt the need 
to clarify my position after you misrepresented me.

The video you linked was good but I think people should watch her TED talk 
instead of the interview about the TED talk.
