It was delightful! The long recording will be sliced into individual talks and posted shortly.
One highlight, among many: Gordon Brander and Chris Joel announced Noosphere, a “protocol for thought”: https://twitter.com/bmann/status/1559646635860185088?s=21&t=9M1N9pG8bflcbroQx_49eg There's a discord and a repo.
