The following is a list of workshop ideas and suggestions for the forthcoming HacktionLab Summer 2023 taking place in June in Sheffield, UK. _Nerd gag_ measures how technical and jargony the session might be, from "on tight" being accessible to all, to "ungagged" being no-holes-barred tech talk. In the middle there's "breathing room" and "rather loose".

- How much technical background will people need to be able to follow the session? Nerd gag measures how technical and jargony the session might be, from "on tight" being accessible to all, to "ungagged" being no-holes-barred tech talk. In the middle there's "breathing room" and "rather loose".
Philosophy

- Format
- talk
- Proposed by
- Mike
- Length
- 30-40 mins plus discussion
- Equipment
- projector, maybe speakers
- Description
- The Russian-Amercian author Ayn Rand was a controverversial character in her lifetime and is still today. Not necessarily a natural bed-fellow of the left, this talk looks at who she was, her novels, such as The Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged, and tries to compare her philosophy of Objectivism with that of Anarchism, Libertarianism, and Socialism.
