25:00 Why attend an art history class then when you are so sensitive of images being depicted (decent argument)? 27:00 cancel culture at college campuses (evolution being taught creationist becoming mad example) 29:25 Tension between intellectual discomfort and harm (notion of safe spaces as being a problem). 31:00 Illiberal left as sketching good vs evil and claiming moral superoprity.

Panel: The Future of Note Taking (FoNT) Speakers engaged in reimagining the technology and practices of digital note taking will discuss their work and engage each other and attendees in conversation. The panel will be moderated by Dan Whaley (Hypothesis) and feature speakers Ward Cunningham (FedWiki), Daniel Doyon (Readwise), Bastien Guerry (Org-mode), Eduardo Ivanec (Agora), Oliver Sauter (Memex), Conor White Sullivan (Roam), and Junyu Zhan (Logseq).
For this panel I think it might have been useful to have someone like Maggie Appleton participate for her perspective with respect to some of the history, design, and even anthropology of this space.
Anne-Laure Le Cunff might have been an interesting participant for her leadership and writing on use and UI as well as thinking about "why" note taking.
I'd also nominate Argentina Ortega Sáinz for her work on academic integrations of Zotero with tools like Obsidian.
Perhaps worth noting when revisiting this topic next year? cc: @dwhly @nateangell @hypothesis
