A further heads up! We have the 3rd iteration of our Defcon Dojo happening this month. We feel these events are gaining good traction and providing useful opportunities for people to get hands on experience with topics and technologies not normally otherwise encountered. This month we have the honor of having our very own El President, Adrian,  will be bringing all the goodies surrounding the Teensy project (https://www.pjrc.com/teensy/). The usual side of lock picking and mini drone flying plus more also 🙂
