  • The hypocrisy is astonishing.

    The diatribe that the host and his guest engages in on the “Charlie Kirk” episode is astonishing.

    It seems that they’re afraid of “the left” because “liberals want them dead.”

    Interestingly enough they focus on how democrats are “celebrating” Kirk’s death and forgot to mention that only 3 years ago MAGA thought calling Paul Pelosi’s attacker his homosexual lover was fun.

    Or the recent murders of a democratic lawmaker, her husband and their dog.

    The hypocrisy is just amazing. I’m sick of the mo... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Bitcoin Spam is Bad. So is BIP-110 | Giacomo Zucco
Q: What is your stance on the activation mechanisms in BIP-110 and the emergency framing around it?
Activation mechanisms should not be forced by emergencies or social manipulation; the base rules should remain stable, with changes requiring broad consensus rather than urgency fueled by fear.
Bitcoin Spam is Bad. So is BIP-110 | Giacomo Zucco
Q: Does the emergence of BIP-110 signal that Knots filtering didn't work at the relay level and had to move to consensus?
Yes, but the reaction reflects a broader concern about emergency forks and the desire to keep rule changes deliberate and consensus-driven rather than reactive to social pressures.
Nostr + Bitcoin vs AI Slop: The Fight for a Human Internet | Paul Keating
Q: You mentioned a new release coming soon. Can you hint at what's coming in the pipeline?
The guest describes Maxi Madness on Primal, polls, and the ability to attach sats to poll responses, signaling a more interactive and monetized user engagement on Primal/Nostr.
Vibe Coding the Bitcoin Future: Nostr, AI Agents & Clawstr | Derek Ross and Alex Gleason
Q: How do you envision Quilly changing how people build apps?
Derek explains Quilly as Shakespeare's descendant that enables users to message a bot across familiar apps to construct Nostr apps, with pricing, payments (Bitcoin or fiat), and quick deployment, lowering barriers for non-technical users.
Vibe Coding the Bitcoin Future: Nostr, AI Agents & Clawstr | Derek Ross and Alex Gleason
Q: What makes Nostr feel fundamentally different from Mastodon or other federated systems?
Derek highlights that Nostr is sovereign for each user, avoids centralized identity friction, and contrasts with Mastodon's server-centric federation, arguing Nostr provides a more accessible, portable identity and better resilience against censorship.
