Hey all. Caleb has another presentation  besides blockchain:

• V2C - discussion on a protocol and application suite designed to assist folks with physical disabilities to connect and interface with unknown computers and custom applications independently through their voice (more info here: https://v2c-development-team.github.io)

You may want to hear that one over the blockchain talk, as blockchain is 14 years old now.

I didn't know he had this talk in his bag when I told Jas. Sorry, Jas.

Anyway, let me know which one you want to hear so I can give him time to prepare.

I wouldn't mind either one, to be honest.

I've already announced here, on GetTogether, and HackGreenville
(including #cryptocurrency channel). It wouldn't be that much of a
deal to correct these announcements, but could we have V2C at another
date? Or is it too short notice for him to "change gears"?

Does anyone else have opinions?

OK, blockchain it is. We'll see if he can do V2C another day.

This is the blockchain blurb:

• Blockchain basics - a discussion on data structures, strengths and weaknesses, and lightly touching (but not focusing on) application
