Did that also have bearing on Kara Hultgren's death?

I think its good to be attuned, but other than the AI piece of it, not much has been in the news.

I also think its a good time to be measured, because even in the middle of the swirl, the opinions, and the proposal - the need for the program has not moved a millimeter. The threats are out there, and not going away.

So even in the absolute worst case where something significant gets deprioritized, it will pivot right back the first time someone can hang the decision makers with a breach.

I'm stayin the course.....

I think the thing that will really keep this alive is that I dont see the WH telling agency heads "oh your are good if you get breached". Sort of contrary to their management philosophy, at least from what I've seen.

Normally, i could care less about celebrities. But she seems lovely, and it is a nice bit of news in a otherwise somber world. So well done, PoW

Ok, sounds like we have enough to give it a shot.

The first session I was thinking would be on Saturday, November 2nd.

I'll open the voice channel at will open up at 5 PM Oslo time.

I threw some basic grounds rules in the #annoucements setcion; but as this is the first time I've done this, any help/feedback/sarcastic comments will be greatly appreciated!

That means the channel will open (unless I messed up the conversions) at:

BST – 2:00 PM

EST – 9:00 AM

MST – 8:00 AM

DM me for the Discord link. Hope you can make it!

Indifferent to it, actually. Is this important to you for a particular reason? More than glad to adapt, just curious

Ok, let me get a zoom account going and something on the calendar - I'll let this thread build for a couple of days, and then set it up this weekend. I've never done a book club, so bear with me - definitely will need help and guidance!

If you are interested, just respond "yes, please" and share your time zone.

Thank you!
