Hackerspace
Hackerspace Comunity
A hackerspace is foremost a community focused on equally minded people. Definition on wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hackerspace
Base48
base48 is a hackerspace located in Brno. Why the number 48/0x30/0b00110000? Because the previous space that we used was at Čápkova 48. And because with other numbers like base64 we would have problems being found by people searching for us on google :)
