I think HN deserves far more discussion on hackerspaces/makerspaces and such! My local hackerspace is Garoa Hacker clube[1]; unfortunately I haven't had the time to participate much. If you're in São Paulo, I recommend a visit (for the 'Noite de Processing' (Processing nights)) on tuesday, and if you live here, what are you waiting for? :) (those spaces can always use more participation!) ... and maybe someday we'll meet there as well.
Noite de Processing is also streamed online as well usually by the great Alexandre Villares. The next one is tuesday 28/11/2023![2]
