«The moment was absurd but revealing; the university wasn’t resisting bullshit education, it was onboarding it. Education at its best sparks curiosity and critical thought. “Bullshit education” does the opposite: it trains people to tolerate meaninglessness, to accept automation of their own thinking, to value credentials over competence.»

#Firmenwagen-Richtlinien sind eines der letzten großen Relikte alter Benefit-Denke. Wer Bürokratie abbauen will, sollte hier ansetzen: Weg von starren Fahrzeugprogrammen, hin zu flexiblen Mobilitätslösungen. Das spart nicht nur bares Geld, sondern zeigt auch: HR denkt nicht in verstaubten Prozessen, sondern in Lebensrealitäten. | Marcus K. Reif
Not sure what the difference between a panel and a"fireside chat" is. There is no fire.
But here's a fireside chat on what nostr is.
Nostr is freedom for Identity. Accounts without hosts. Publishing without publidhers. Censorship resistance without platforms deciding who gets to say what.
It's not a silo in which you can be tapped as the service enshitifies, since it's a protocol with accounts you control, you can't switch clients or relays without loosing social graph or contacts.
Nostr is notes and Other Stuff, what other stuff? the panel is working on an audiobook publishing system with perhaps a required payment and affiliate revenue share. E-commerce, video publishing, zap stream for live video with zap payments.
Onboarding can be tricky with private key management needing to be understood and such a range of options of clients and what relays are. Can we make it easier?
Perhaps by abstracting away the fact it's nostr at all. Devine users don't even know they are using nostr. But this robs users of the understanding they may need to move clients or use the same account for video and notes, say.
Perhaps by making a private messagnger, the panel thinks people are used to using multiple messenger apps. Though I find they hate that, and that's why they refuse to install signal. They feel they don't need it since they already have WhatsApp with a bigger network.
In the end it's education. We have to teach literacy so people can read and write, we have to teach public keys encryption so people can do so securely.
