Hacker dojo is a space in Mountain View California.
[edit] Organization
Hacker Dojo has incorporated and has approximately 128 members and several commercial sponsors - including both Microsoft and Google. The space opened on September 1, 2009 and is open to all members and their guests. This space is composed of two buildings (referred to as A and B) which share a common wall. Eventual expansion plans include joining the two spaces.
[edit] Resources
The majority of the first building is beanbag chairs, desks and tables for light work. Another room (commonly referred to as the Lab or Cave) is filled with electronics equipment such as soldering irons, chips, electrostatic mats, other hardware resources and a CNC mill. Many outside groups host events and lectures on the deck or in the back room. Building B is mostly un-renovated as of October 2009. No resources are currently available for biohacking. The space includes a kitchen and a bread machine which dojo members use to make a great deal of bread.
[edit] Community
Hacker Dojo is at minimum open from 10AM until 10PM 7 days a week, although frequently staff will keep it open unannounced until about 3AM. A great many of the members are working on startups during daylight hours and use the back offices as carry-in / carry-out office space. Non-work hours are more social and cater more towards events / lectures and people who want to hang out / work on personal projects.
