#368 - Zach Vorhies: Inside Google's Secrets, AI, Censorship, and the Future

Good combo

LFG!

Maybe double the voting weight for people with skin in the game (kids?). 😁 No way non-French Europeans with similar living standards would move to Quebec of all places and have to learn French.

Appreciate the description of how PR articles become news.

Agree the mic drop moment was npubs emulated as IPv6 addresses through a custom local DNS service + network adapter. Allows third party apps to just work. FIPS might have some actual legs for decentralizing the internet.

"Lightning doesn't work" - Phoenix wallet NOT mentioned.

Plausible flavours of the coming world order.

Generating entropy with dice offline is actually preferable IMO if done correctly.

The irony of AI naming the chapters "Caras ...". Looking forward to the listen!

A Bitcoin that can be governed by politicians passing laws, influencing public company miners, is not interesting to me. Spammers will always find ways around any filters we build. You can send a message by disallowing some formats, but it's probably not going to have a big impact. Excitement around using spam is low. Block space is cheap, so it still makes it in. There's a max size limit on blocks regardless of how much spam they contain. FUD about hard drive space is fake news.

Two worlds colliding (Bitcoin and defense of a nation). 2 lads hitting it off. Liked the slight focus on leadership failure. Apart from that I think the Triggernometry episode with Tommy had better flow.

Interesting times

Be the change.

Paid for this episode on Fountain but stuck with 402 errors when attempting to download. 😐
