Using Call Recordings to Transcript Important Meetings

Oxide and Friends Twitter Space: March 7th, 2022

The Future Of Work

We’ve been holding a Twitter Space weekly on Mondays at 5p for about an hour. Even though it’s not (yet?) a feature of Twitter Spaces, we have been recording them all; here is the recording for our Twitter Space for March 7th, 2022.

In addition to Bryan Cantrill and Adam Leventhal, speakers on March 7th included Lucas Ives, Dan McDonald, Steve Tuck, Ian, Matt Campbell, MattSci, Jim Rybarski, Austin, Aaron Goldman, Jake Demarest-Mays, Jason Ozolins, Tom Lyon, Timon, Matthew Amdur, jasonbking, and Horace. (Did we miss your name and/or get it wrong? Drop a PR!)

Some of the topics we hit on, in the order that we hit them:

• [@8:15](https://youtu.be/GTluipbKeII?t=495) Lucas’ story

• [@56:15](https://youtu.be/GTluipbKeII?t=3375) Jake’s experience, asynchronous work style 
  • Meetings as unprepared group think sessions, not valuable as decision making

  • Class devision between “the desked” and “the un-desked”
