Hi hacktivists,
I had a chat with some folks at the weekend who are keen to give talks
at HL.
One would be a philosophical one but tech-related, about questions
around identity and how they relate to the practical ways in which the
UK government are attempting make their services more joined-up and
available, with all the benefits and pitfalls thereof.
The other would be a techy one about LineageOS, i.e. how to run an
Android phone without being connected to Google.
Hopefully these will appear on the wiki soon!
Also, I was talking with Mike about whether wider talks related to
politics or philosophy would be suitable, or whether people would rather
HL be restricted to topics that in some way relate to tech. I've been
doing a lot of research lately about anti-Zionism vs antisemitism and
was thinking of doing a talk / discussion about that. And there is
Mike's suggestion, "Ayn Rand for Lefties". I'd be interested to hear
what people think of having such talks at HL and if there is anyone on
the list who would also like to give/facilitate a philosophical or
political talk/discussion.
Perhaps as we have two rooms we could dedicate one of them to
"off-topic" sessions for a single afternoon or something like that.
