Blue Devil Productions is proud to present Myq Kaplan on our campus for a free comedy show.
Myq Kaplan's stand-up show is loaded with an abundance of jokes, leaving the audience wondering what to do with all the laughter. He delivers a high-quality performance that engages the brain, the heart, and the funny bone in unexpected and charming ways. His unique and universal approach to comedy is impressive, and he manages to transcend the limitations of space and time, delivering powerful philosophical truths with hilarious puns. If the great thinkers of history were alive today, they would undoubtedly attend his show. You might even believe that Myq's talents are better suited for academia, but as you wipe away the tears of laughter, you'll be grateful that he isn't.

Cryptocurrencies raise vexing normative questions across a number of topics including money creation, censorship, financial inclusion, governance, and privacy. These topics are not purely technical, and require an integrated approach that draws on computer science, philosophy, economics, and more. This talk is an extended examination of the last of these topics — privacy — through a case study of bitcoin, the oldest and most important cryptocurrency. Financial privacy is under threat from a range of private and public actors. Popular digital payment networks exacerbate the problem. This talk will show how bitcoin can be used to enhance privacy along four dimensions, despite its transparent and publicly accessible ledger. These results raise questions about the value of privacy and how to best pursue it. A novel taxonomy of "cypherpunk" theories will illuminate these questions and show how bitcoin's curious approach relates to some familiar political categories. We'll conclude with an ethical framework for weighing financial privacy against other values – especially the public’s interest in curbing criminal activity. Bitcoin’s similarities with physical cash guide the way forward and suggest this irenic parity thesis: if cash makes the world better off, then so does bitcoin.
Dr. Bailey is Associate Professor of Humanities (Philosophy) at Yale-NUS College. He has a new book (w/ Bradley Rettler and Craig Warmke), Resistance Money: A Philosophical Case for Bitcoin, recently published by Routledge.
This event is sponsored by the Center for Applied Ethics and the Menard Center for the Study of Institutions and Innovations.

Step Two: Search by your major, a company, or keyword. You can see where alumni work, where they live, and use the arrow on the right to view more filters like what they studied. Scroll to the bottom of the page to see the profiles of alumni that fit those categories.
If you see an alumnus working in a position or for a company that interests you, reach out! Either send a message or add a note to your connection invitation introducing who you are, and mention you are a Stout student since this is what unites you. See if they have any tips for you, connections they have, or openings they know of. You can also ask if they are open to connecting with you over the phone to have a further conversation.
These alumni will remember being in your shoes, and most likely will want to help how they can. So what are you waiting for?! Happy searching!
