Bay Area Nix Meetup at UC Berkeley’s Open Computing Facility - 2025-06-06

What: A Bay Area Nix meetup. Come to learn and hack, and meet fellow Nixers, or learn more about Nix if your’e curious! This is our second event hosted by the Open Computing Facility (OCF) at their lab on UC Berkeley campus.

When: 2025-06-07T01:00:00Z2025-06-07T06:00:00Z (we intend to keep hosting these on the first Friday of every month)

Who: @jfly, @lopter, UC Berkeley’s Open Computing Facility (OCF), and hopefully you!

Where: The OCF computer lab at MLK Student Union (2495 Bancroft Way, Berkeley, CA 94720)

How to get inside: It was challenging for people to get inside last time. Both Google Maps and the OCF website lead you to doors that only a student can unlock.

  1. Follow directions to Goldie’s Coffee (on Google Maps). That will take you into the Student Union via a public entrance.
  2. Inside, you’ll find a front desk. Ask for instructions to the OCF computer lab. Show them this post and tell them you’re attending the event.

Is there any way to join this remotely? Not many Nix events in NA.

@Ai-Elias, unfortunately the way we run this event doesn’t lend itself well to remote attendees.

Where are you located? Might be worth posting a new thread just to see if there’s anyone else near you.

Thanks that makes sense, figured I would check just in case. I’m up in the Portland area.

Quick heads-up: we won’t be ordering food this time around.

Looking forward to see you all tomorrow!
