📆 BEUK Meetup Breakdown 81
“And so, when the many are in power, they choose for their rulers men who will gratify their appetites and flatter them; and so the city is governed not by wisdom but by desire.” —Plato, The Republic, Book VIII, trans. Benjamin Jowett
A quieter week this week
While you’re waiting for your next meetup, take a moment to ask “Do you accept bitcoin?” wherever you shop. Even if the answer is no, you’re planting a seed, and at the very least, you’ll have a story to share at your next meetup.
Let’s have a look at what’s on this week…
