Transcript
- 0:00Broadcasting 2.0 for September 11th, 2026, episode 270. YOLO, guys!
- 0:08- Hello everybody. Did you miss us? You did? I
- 0:11thought so. Hey, it's time once again for Podcasting 2.0.
- 0:14This is where the future of podcasting is discussed, sometimes
- 0:19made, and you might even see us write it from
- 0:21time to time. Everything you need to know, everything you
- 0:24want to do better is right here. We are the
- 0:26board meeting, and we are the only board meeting that
- 0:28runs entirely on Omachi. I'm Adam Curry here in the
- 0:31heart of the Texas Hill Country and in Alabama, the
- 0:34man who gave everyone a new identity and called it
- 0:37scary stuff. My friend on the other end, the one,
- 0:40the only, the pod sage, it's Mr. Dave. Speaking of
- 0:49Omachi. Omachi. There's no R in Omachi. Omachi. Omachi. Omachi.
- 0:56Omachi. That's very Japanese. Omachi. Omachi. I think it is
- 1:01a derivative of some Japanese thing. When you crank up,
- 1:08pre-show, I was needing to jack you. Yes. I needed
- 1:15jacking, baby. Yeah, you jacked me. And so. Have you
- 1:20seen the little... audio Slider messaging? The widget in Omachi.
- 1:30Yeah. It's like when you slide it, it gives you...
- 1:35Like, I don't know, would you... summaries of how loud
- 1:40it is. I don't know why this is necessary, but
- 1:43it's like 85, okay, at 45% volume, it says easy
- 1:48listening. And 55% it says steady groove. I haven't actually
- 1:54used that widget. I know it's there. I just clicked
- 1:57it to see it. I'm not going to move anything
- 1:59because I'm afraid that'll screw something up. It says 77%
- 2:03says cranked up, and then 80 or above says party
- 2:07mode. Well, remember, this is an opinionated operating system. I
- 2:12don't know why you have to be opinionated about the
- 2:16description of how loud a thing is. Does it really
- 2:18bother you? Is it a real problem? No, no, no.
- 2:22No, it does not bother me at all. pipe wire
- 2:32tool. Today is the first day that I've even turned
- 2:36the RODECaster on since the Omarchi. Oh, okay. Since I
- 2:41paved this machine with Omarchi. Oh, okay. So the answer
- 2:44to that is no. All right. Well, it's working fine.
- 2:46But I will. But I will. I mean, it's just
- 2:48really handy because then you can do a lot more,
- 2:51and then you get just new controls. But actually looking
- 2:56at this control panel, that's actually not bad. I'm kind
- 2:59of digging, what if I do this? What do you
- 3:03mean, what control panel are you talking about? 1, 2,
- 3:051, 2, 1, 2, what's happening here? This, uh, oh,
- 3:07oh, matche! Control panel. Oh, you're talking about the audio
- 3:10panel? Yeah. It's quite robust. Oh, the whole OS is
- 3:14quite robust. The thing is great. Especially this Quattro. Quattro.
- 3:20Omachi Quattro. It's good. That must be the one I've
- 3:24got, I guess. How do you tell? No, you do.
- 3:26You do. You have it. You have it. That widget
- 3:29is a feature of Quattro. Okay, this, yeah, it's listing
- 3:33omarchi4.0.3-1. So now you need to get the Currycaster also
- 3:38from my GitHub. And you can do your own podcast.
- 3:43You won't need me anymore. It'll all be good to
- 3:45go. Set. Perfect. Bingo. Boom. But I wouldn't have you.
- 3:50You're not on the GitHub. It's just your software. Yeah,
- 3:53but in case you want to do a show with
- 3:56somebody else. Nah, that's not possible. You've got some spare
- 4:00time somewhere, no doubt. Oh, yeah, right. It's from the
- 4:04hours of 10 o'clock at night until 6 o'clock in
- 4:06the morning when I wake up. I'll just figure out
- 4:09some way to automate that. I've tried Omarchi before, and
- 4:15I've tried every Linux distro, and I've got every Linux
- 4:21distro. And... My life. Back to, I mean, I've got
- 4:27Ubuntu 12 servers. I've got Ubuntu 18. Oh, you have
- 4:30these servers just laying around, just ready to go? Running.
- 4:34Running. You got Mint? Do you have Mint running somewhere?
- 4:37No, I don't have Mint. I've had Mint, though. I've
- 4:40had Mint. I've had Pop! OS. I've had every flavor
- 4:43of Linux back to Red Hat 5.2 was my first
- 4:47Linux. Oh, yeah. Remember when we had to build the
- 4:51kernel? Oh, I used to build the kernel all the
- 4:54time. Yeah. Because, see, there's two uses for building the
- 5:01kernel. Both are for torture, but okay. Okay, well, three.
- 5:07There's three uses for building the kernel. One is to
- 5:12break in a new processor. So you heat cycle your
- 5:15processor to get that thing broken in. The next one
- 5:19is if you actually need to do real work and
- 5:21change something. a kernel driver or something like that, that's
- 5:25always fun. And the third and most important reason to
- 5:28rebuild the kernel is for when you're in your day
- 5:32job at the office and you have nothing to do
- 5:36and somebody walks by your office, you need that thing
- 5:39scrolling across the screen to make it look like you're
- 5:42doing work. I'm doing important work here. Yeah. Have you
- 5:45seen HackerTyper? Do you know this? Yes. That looks really
- 5:49good, doesn't it? Yeah. It's HackerTyper. Machi as well. Oh,
- 5:54I don't know. I just know it's a website. I
- 5:57think it's built in there somewhere. So what do you
- 5:59think? I mean, I know you've used Tiling Window Managers
- 6:02before. What do you think? Are you digging it? Yeah,
- 6:06so I'm trying – whenever I try a new distro,
- 6:11I try to do it the distro's way, the way
- 6:14that they want it. Oh, opinionated. You're opinionated. Yeah, I
- 6:18want to follow the paradigm that they said, you know
- 6:20what I mean? Yeah. So that you can really –
- 6:23Get the full experience. Yeah, yeah, really test it out.
- 6:27Like with NixOS, um... I went in raw. Raw-dogging, raw-dogging
- 6:32Nix. Bareback into the NixOS ecosystem with just editing the
- 6:37config file and running NixOS rebuild. Hardcore, hardcore, yeah. And
- 6:41I've still got that server running. It's doing some stuff.
- 6:45But, yeah, so I'm trying to, I've used tiling window
- 6:48managers before, but I'm trying to do this in like,
- 6:50I'm trying to keep my hand off the mouse. It's
- 6:53hard. Oh, see, this is what I love about Omachi.
- 6:56Because I've been a keyboard guy all my life. I'm
- 7:01a Vim guy, which now is NeoVim. which Envim, which
- 7:06I like a lot. And no, I dig it. I
- 7:10mean, I'm a workspace master. Boom, workspace. Boom, move the
- 7:15windows. You know, super key shift arrow. Super Key J.
- 7:23See, that's what I'm trying to get used to is
- 7:25how do I flip. Because I feel like the right
- 7:28thing to do is to not try to cram a
- 7:30bunch of windows onto one screen, but keep flipping them
- 7:33between worksheets. Well, here's another cool one. So if you
- 7:36have a window highlighted, you do super key O, and
- 7:39then it pops it right into the middle of your
- 7:41screen. And you do super key O again, and it
- 7:43goes back into the tile. So you can just pop
- 7:46something. Instead of doing super key F, which makes it
- 7:48full screen, you can just make it kind of float
- 7:51in the middle. Okay, okay. Yeah, yeah, I know what
- 7:56you're talking about. Are you doing it right now? I
- 7:59did it by accident the other day. Okay, wash your
- 8:03hands then if you just did it now. I've got
- 8:07sanitizer. Hold on. Yeah, I know you can just install
- 8:13a tiling window manager, but it's got to be installed
- 8:16on something, so it might as well be this. Yeah.
- 8:19I've... I do like... I do like Omarchi for one
- 8:26reason, is... And I literally have done every Linux distro.
- 8:30I've done LFS, the Linux from scratch project. I've done
- 8:33all of it. Yeah. And. One thing that always annoyed
- 8:38me about almost every district. is that you would install
- 8:45it And then there was always a few sort of
- 8:48critical things that were missing. Yeah, that didn't work. Yeah,
- 8:51like unzip. Yeah, all these little critical things. Yes, I
- 8:56know. Of course, I know exactly what you mean. And
- 8:58then you're like. okay, I'm going to install it and
- 9:01then you're missing dependencies. And then, you know, it's like,
- 9:05oh, and eventually, but recompile your kernel. I'm like, I
- 9:11install a fresh Ubuntu and then I have to do
- 9:13sudo apt-get unzip, install unzip. I'm like, really? We can't
- 9:18even just – we can't put unzip in it? Does
- 9:21it actually come on Omachi? Let me see. um I'm
- 9:25sure. I don't know if it does or not. Yeah,
- 9:27it does. Now that I've said it, it probably doesn't.
- 9:30It does. Yeah, it does. It's right there. This already
- 9:33had Pi on it, which I'm a hardcore Pi user
- 9:37now. Well, it has a whole, you know, your agents
- 9:42are kind of built into it. So you can track
- 9:45all your different agents and their usage while they're running.
- 9:47Then you can use Herder. Oh, Herder. So are you
- 9:50using Herder? Are you using that? I'm not using it,
- 9:54but you could. I'm not using it because I don't.
- 9:57I've learned my lesson. I don't want my agents talking
- 9:59to me.
- 10:00each other. Nuh-uh. Nuh-uh. Before you know it, they're emailing
- 10:03Dave. This has happened, yes. So, no, no. What did
- 10:10you, so... Did you get the email? from Jason at
- 10:16Podcast Guru about his top secret project. I get, no,
- 10:20I don't get any of that stuff. He was supposed
- 10:23to send you an email about it's agent related and
- 10:28he's got a top secret project. No, he doesn't. No,
- 10:30he doesn't love me like you love me. He loved
- 10:32me no long time. He sent me an invite and
- 10:36I said, you need to send Adam one. He's like,
- 10:38yeah, I'm on it. I didn't get an invite. Oh,
- 10:42an invite. Yeah. It's probably your spam firewall. An invite
- 10:48for what? For the Top Secret Project. Jason. I don't
- 10:58know where that would go. I think you would like
- 11:00this. I think you would like his tool. It's really
- 11:02cool. I'm not interested in anybody's tool in the podcasting
- 11:082.0 system. I just want their code. Code. Just give
- 11:11me your code. Just send your code. Don't show me
- 11:14your tool. No water. Just send me your code. Everything's
- 11:21down, I heard. What do you mean everything's down? Everybody's
- 11:25stats are down. All the podcasters. There's James and Sam.
- 11:29We're talking on today's episode that across the board, everybody's
- 11:33had a huge drop in downloads. Oh, the numbers. I
- 11:36think because I did listen to some of the show,
- 11:39only to hear if they talk about me, obviously. I
- 11:41mean, why else would I listen? And I think that
- 11:45was PodTrack. Was it PodTrack that reports everybody down? That's
- 11:50what they were saying. Yeah. So that doesn't mean everything's
- 11:53down. Everybody's down. This just means that PodTrack has changed
- 11:57something because, you know, the statistics in podcast land are
- 12:01so reliable. Yeah, I don't know. I mean, it would
- 12:09not surprise me. At all? Would it surprise you if
- 12:13those numbers were accurate? If they were accurate, it would
- 12:16surprise me, yes. Really? Yeah. No, I'm saying if any
- 12:23podcast statistics were accurate, I would be surprised. That's what
- 12:27I'm saying. I believe you on that. I'm with you
- 12:31on that front. I guess what I'm saying is it
- 12:33wouldn't surprise me if the numbers truly are down across
- 12:36the board this year. Really? Oh, I don't know about
- 12:38that. We're in the middle of a... There's no political,
- 12:45hardcore political cycle. What are you talking about? The midterms
- 12:48are, everyone's going nuts over the midterms. Nobody cares. Oh,
- 12:55no, I disagree. People care. People think the world is
- 12:58on fire. I have yet to see a single political
- 13:02ad. on any, excuse me, I've yet to hear a
- 13:08single political ad on any podcast that I listen to.
- 13:10And I listen to plenty of podcasts from big networks
- 13:14like iHeart and Acast and all those kinds of things.
- 13:17I have not. The only ads I ever hear are
- 13:21for better help and stuff like that. Well, I mean,
- 13:24okay, so there's no political ads, but there's... There's definitely
- 13:29news that people are talking about that people are interested
- 13:32in. But all the political all the political podcasts are
- 13:36driven by. ads no no no that's not true they're
- 13:40driven by political news and you know trump that's what
- 13:44they're driven by paid they don't want to get paid
- 13:46yeah but they get paid uh no i don't think
- 13:49that's one for one i mean no no i don't
- 13:52think so i think there's there's plenty of stuff we've
- 13:54got a war in iran we've got a war in
- 13:56ukraine we've got uh general scott besant walking around like
- 14:00he's gonna kill everybody with his finance weapon We've got...
- 14:06We've got Trumpapalooza in Dallas. We have the oil prices.
- 14:14The gas is too high. My wife said, but she
- 14:17was irritated with me. So that's okay. We had jet
- 14:19lag. So, you know, and then she went out, she
- 14:24got groceries and got gas. And she comes home and
- 14:26says, I paid $100 to fill up my car. Thanks,
- 14:28President Trump. And I knew she was trying to get
- 14:32a reaction out of me. Did it work? No, no.
- 14:37Wisely. Wisely. That's funny. That's just the way things are
- 14:46going to be for the rest of our lives. Every
- 14:51new president, there's going to be people putting the little
- 14:54sticker on the gas pump that says, I did this
- 14:57for that guy. Oh, yeah. That's just a new way
- 14:59of life. It's true. I don't know. I mean, I
- 15:07have no way to prove anything. But I really, I
- 15:13don't know, I get a sense that things are down.
- 15:17I don't know, just from, because I've been deep in
- 15:20the bowels of the index for weeks now. Well, yes,
- 15:24in fact, on my list here to discuss is the
- 15:29scary stuff you put in, the podcast identity table. Yes.
- 15:35And well, you said it was scary. And, you know,
- 15:38I feel a little bit out of it because I
- 15:40was in Rotterdam for almost two weeks and not really
- 15:47looking at anything at all. Which was good, except for
- 15:52my granddaughter. I was just getting spit up on. I
- 15:55was changing diapers. Yeah. Laughing, you know, she's laughing at
- 16:00me, I'm laughing back, you know. She's interested in my
- 16:04beard, I'm sporting a little beard now. It's new. Oh,
- 16:07oh. It's new, yeah, it's new. Okay. It's new, yeah.
- 16:10And but I, you know, so I just every every
- 16:13time I do a check of stuff, it's CNBC. Podcast
- 16:19index.social. Google News X. And so I'm always monitoring what
- 16:26you and Spurlock say. I know why you think that
- 16:31everybody's all jitty about politics stuff is because you see
- 16:36X. Like, no, I see Google News. I mean, I
- 16:43see everything. Yeah, well, I mean, that's the bit. But
- 16:46you have to understand. I'm talking about on the street,
- 16:48out here on these streets. On the streets, people. It's
- 16:51all about it, man. You just don't know it. Okay,
- 16:54I'll give you an example. There's a 10% chance AI
- 16:58is going to kill everybody! Yeah, the latest IPO. Yeah,
- 17:06well, yes and no. I mean, it's... I love Spurlock's
- 17:14saying, anthropic marketing is like an advent calendar. Which we
- 17:20open another window every single day until we get to
- 17:23the IPO. And what's behind it today? I thought that
- 17:27was just a brilliant. Yeah, that was just a sheer
- 17:32brilliance. I'm using it. I'm not going to credit him.
- 17:34I'm going to pretend it's my own. Great. Really good.
- 17:38But it's multiple things. Actually, I got a, hold on
- 17:42a second, where is the... Yeah, you get up, you're
- 17:45in your jammies, you open the little door on the
- 17:49advent calendar, and today Mythos is going to hack a
- 17:52Fortune 500 company. Yeah, I like this. So this guy
- 17:58who no one ever heard of. who quit Anthropic. And
- 18:03says. Oh, here it is. I read that thing. That
- 18:06thing's goofy. Kill all humans. Kill all humans. What is
- 18:13that from? I got a whole bunch of kill all
- 18:15humans. Okay, I will destroy humans. I just got a
- 18:18bunch of kill all humans. This is Futurama. Kill all
- 18:22humans. Oh, yeah, that's right. So I read that and
- 18:28right away I'm like, okay. This is one of three
- 18:32things. And I think this will be proven right. One,
- 18:36man, we're so awesome. The stuff that Anthropic is doing,
- 18:39it's so far ahead. You're going to want to invest
- 18:42in us. Totally true. Two. We want government regulation of
- 18:48all models so this open source stuff doesn't get away
- 18:52from us. Hugging face needs to go away, we can't
- 18:55have that! three and this was the one that was
- 18:58most interesting because this guy he was on cnn msnbc
- 19:03ms now uh you know mbc fox all with the
- 19:07same message and and they literally were saying they're they're
- 19:12begging for regulation well of course because they have no
- 19:15moat around this stuff We've talked about that. And the
- 19:19last one, and this is the political angle. Chuck Schumer
- 19:23and Bernie Sanders and all the Democrats are coming out.
- 19:26Boy, and Tallarico here in Texas. Well, the Republicans, they're
- 19:32risking your life. They don't want to do anything about
- 19:36it. They're supporting these people. They're taking PAC money from
- 19:39them. You've got to vote Democrat if you don't want
- 19:41to be part of the 10% that die. So it's
- 19:46all political and it's all around the midterms. And by
- 19:50the way, if you look at the... So the exact
- 19:53quote, I think, was there's a 10% chance that AI
- 19:57will kill all humans.
- 20:00That was pretty much the quote. And then immediately you
- 20:03got anthropic guys who still work there coming out saying,
- 20:07oh, yeah, that's possible. That's true. So this was a
- 20:09clear set up. Clear set up. Yeah, that makes sense.
- 20:13But I think if you flip it. I think there
- 20:16is a large possibility that AI will kill 10% of
- 20:21all humans. That I really believe, you know, 1% will
- 20:25be egged on to suicide themselves. That's, that's, I mean,
- 20:29that's going to be, there's a million people a year
- 20:32by Anthropic's own PR marketing. Who? have had a conversation
- 20:38about killing themselves with their chatbot. So chatbots, that's 1%
- 20:44right there. I think there is a high probability that
- 20:49many people will die because of a doctor accepting diagnosis
- 20:54from their chatbot. I think that's so you're probably now
- 20:57at 3%. there's going to be automated systems in traffic
- 21:03and vehicles, and that's just going to cause 3% death,
- 21:07no doubt about it. So what are we at now,
- 21:097? I'm going to get to the 10% pretty quickly.
- 21:12Yeah, you just need another 3% from somewhere. I mean,
- 21:15there's a margin of error, too, so you may only
- 21:17need to get to 9, and you get 10 for
- 21:19free. You know, people trying to fix their home wiring,
- 21:24they're going to get electrocuted and die. Or their car.
- 21:27Yeah, like, oh, my chat might change. Yeah, exactly, fixing
- 21:30my brakes, doing my own stuff. I think that is
- 21:34absolutely a possibility. Now, that amount of people will die
- 21:38anyway from stupid stuff and stupid technology. But no, so
- 21:43that it's all political, all of its political. So. On
- 21:53the refactor, on the database refactor. Wow, hard left turn.
- 21:57Okay. No, no, no. It's not a hard left turn.
- 22:01I'm doing a connector. Oh, we've got yarn between these
- 22:04two dots on the board. Yes, I'm splicing. because What
- 22:10I was going to say is when it comes to
- 22:13agentic coding versus hand coding. Man, I think I'm waving
- 22:20the white flag. I think I just give up. What
- 22:23do you mean you give up? You're going to do
- 22:25it? You're going to use it? Well, what I'm saying
- 22:28is I have been using it. I haven't written, I
- 22:31don't think I've written any code. I don't think I've
- 22:36written a line of code by hand. I just heard
- 22:41Paul cry. Paul Bailey is crying somewhere. He's crying. Yeah.
- 22:45Well, welcome to the dark side, Dave. Welcome. We've been
- 22:49waiting for you. I've been here developing actual products for
- 22:52customers for two years. Welcome. This And what did it
- 22:59to me was this podcast index refactor. Now... I guess
- 23:09I don't even know really what to think about these
- 23:12things, but... This refactor has been so intense. And it
- 23:21touches every, literally every... function almost in the API code
- 23:27base. It touches everything from the database schema down to
- 23:34every API endpoint, all the base level internal API calls,
- 23:40all the data export. This would have probably been a
- 23:46year of work for me by hand. And I would
- 23:49have had tons of episodes of breaking things along the
- 23:53way. And Ajita. agita What is that? Ajra? I don't
- 24:00know what that means. Oh, hold on a second. Wait,
- 24:03wait. The box is here. I gotta go. Hold on.
- 24:09Stand by. What just happened? Okay. I don't know what
- 24:17just happened, but I'm standing by. The ba- This must
- 24:21be like a new... I wonder if this is sort
- 24:24of like some kind of new AI box or something.
- 24:28It can't be a DGX, though, because those things are
- 24:32stupid expensive now. When RSS.com donated the DGX to us
- 24:38a few weeks ago, I don't know how long it's
- 24:40been now, a couple months. It was like $3,500. That
- 24:45same box today is $6,000. It's outrageous how much the
- 24:53price inflation is. All right. I have the box. What
- 25:00is this? What is this box? I'm sorry. This is
- 25:04the Asus. DX10 128 gigabyte. A GB10? The DX Spark
- 25:13clone? Yes. That's what I'm running here at the RSS
- 25:16gave us. Yes. Well, this was given to me by
- 25:19Eric Timmer, who lives in Austin, I think. Did I
- 25:21tell you the story? No, I don't think so. So
- 25:25Eric listens to Noah Jendi, listens to podcasting 2.0. He
- 25:28says, hey, man, I got this box gathering dust over
- 25:32here. And I don't really use it, so why don't
- 25:35I just send it to you? So what is it?
- 25:38He says it's the Asus GB10, you know, with the
- 25:41Grace chip and the... What? Oh, that's the real deal.
- 25:46Yeah. And I had to sign for it because he
- 25:49insured it. This is this guy, I'm blown away by
- 25:53his... It just says kindness. So what I was saying
- 26:00while you were gone is that – Okay, here it
- 26:03is on... It's the GX10, not GB10. It's the GX10.
- 26:06Yeah, GX10. It's Grace Blackwell 10. The GX10... Desktop AI
- 26:11supercomputer! Calm down, people. That is a $6,000 computer. Well,
- 26:19he bought it for... $3,500 probably, the original price. $3,000,
- 26:24yeah. Yeah, that's what I saw today is 6,200. Yeah,
- 26:29these things are out on Amazon right now. I'm looking
- 26:31at a 6,199. Yeah, yeah. I know. I know. This
- 26:37is like Christmas in September. I can send you the...
- 26:46I can send you my Lama CPP settings for this.
- 26:50Thank you. I feel like they're dialed in now. Thank
- 26:52you. I appreciate that. But my robot has already prepared
- 26:56for everything. We're going to build a lot of things
- 26:59from source because, you know, there's not always an ARM
- 27:03version available and we have to go to the PyTorch
- 27:07CUDA. How's your cooter doing? I don't know. It just
- 27:12sits there and kudos all day. I don't know what
- 27:14exactly it's doing. It's Kuda. Yeah, no, but I already
- 27:19have, I've got my whole architecture mapped out. I know
- 27:23exactly what I'm going to do. But thank you. I'd
- 27:25appreciate that. Just send that to me. That's good. So,
- 27:29I mean, part... Part of this is... This refactor has
- 27:38been so – tense. Originally, I'll just walk you through
- 27:43the process here. In the very beginning, I've known that
- 27:46we needed to do this for a very long time.
- 27:50and Originally, I was just... I mean, you, um... Podcast
- 27:56Index is not a team. of coders. It's just, it's,
- 28:00you know, like as far as I'm talking about the
- 28:02API. Right. When it comes to the API. It's Dave.
- 28:06It's just me. It's Dave. can't and it's hard to
- 28:11make It's hard to make it be any other way
- 28:14because when you actually work in a decent – let's
- 28:17say if I fully open sourced the entire thing and
- 28:20was accepting pull requests and that kind of thing. for
- 28:23the API. it would take even longer to get any
- 28:28changes made. Sure. Because that's a slow process. So in
- 28:35the past I've... Open sourced. Parts of the API, like
- 28:41the low-level functions and that kind of thing, just because
- 28:44I just want it to be open, but I can't
- 28:48really. I don't think it's fast enough to work in
- 28:52a sort of a group mentality with this. So I've
- 28:56always just done it myself. Because of that, I don't
- 29:01have anybody to talk things out with. I don't have
- 29:04eyeballs on this. Right. Now you have your agent friend.
- 29:09He's not my friend. This SOB is not my friend.
- 29:14I can promise you that. So. When I first started
- 29:19it, what I was saying was – I was just
- 29:22having – I was just doing brainstorming sessions to try
- 29:25to... map out the process because it literally is just
- 29:31every it touches everything so i came i was just
- 29:34coming up with basically planning documents and that kind of
- 29:37thing And then... the more I got into it. It
- 29:46had the plan that it came up with for doing
- 29:49the database schema refactor of adding the podcast table and
- 29:54that kind of thing. I just said, okay, we'll just
- 29:58go ahead and... Go ahead.
- 30:00and write that sequel for me. so that I can
- 30:03get that. out of the way. And then it's basically
- 30:08like, do you know... Charybdis from the Odyssey. The massive
- 30:16whirlpool, you know, this sucks you in. This is what
- 30:19happens. you you get into the sphere you know you
- 30:24get into the proximity of charybdis And it just pulls
- 30:29you into the whirlpool. And before it's over, you know...
- 30:37Two months have gone by and you haven't written any
- 30:39code. And that's. That's kind of where I've ended up.
- 30:45Now, I still look at the code. Because this is
- 30:49a code base that previously, that already existed. And in
- 30:54my head, I have a full mapping of... of exactly
- 30:59the way this entire framework functions. Right, but you no
- 31:03longer know how it works. That's a – see, okay,
- 31:07this is part of it. We're talking about two things
- 31:11here. We're talking about – The podcast index refactor itself.
- 31:15and the agentic coding side of this. and You know,
- 31:22do we, do you, there's this thing that happens where.
- 31:28There's multiple levels, I think, of keeping, if you talk
- 31:31about, quote, keeping the architecture in your head, unquote. I
- 31:35think there's multiple levels of that. Oh, that's interesting because
- 31:39I have the architecture of what I vibe coded completely
- 31:43in my head. I know exactly how all the pieces
- 31:46fit together. I really do. How those pieces actually work,
- 31:52not so much. Because that's where I was going. Exactly.
- 31:59Most, I think most coders eventually start. You know, they're
- 32:04working on a very large code base. You start abstracting
- 32:10everything until something breaks. Then you need to go into
- 32:13that one particular module. You've got to sit there. You've
- 32:15got to light up another smoke. You've got to have
- 32:17another cup of coffee. You're like, oh, how did this
- 32:19thing work again? Yeah, you can easily keep the big
- 32:24picture in your head, but the smaller pictures within the
- 32:27big picture tend to get kind of fuzzy. Yeah. Because
- 32:31there's not just the big picture and then the micro
- 32:35details. There's multiple layers all up and down that spectrum.
- 32:40And it's sort of like the lost in the middle
- 32:43problem. With context, the very first prompt you ask tends
- 32:51to be retained, and then the most recent question you
- 32:55ask tends to be retained. But a bunch of stuff
- 32:57in that middle tends to get lost. I think that
- 33:00applies with human effort. in this circumstance as well. We
- 33:06can keep the big picture in our head and we
- 33:08can keep sort of the last thing we did in
- 33:10our head. But there's a lot of things along the
- 33:13way that just kind of like fade in and out
- 33:15of clarity. And that makes it. we can recover that
- 33:21clarity. But it requires a lot of time and attention.
- 33:26Ooh, ooh. Ooh, ooh. What did we get? 777. Okay.
- 33:31Thanks, Salty Crayon. Thank you, Salticrayon. So It's like... You
- 33:42know, Wendell Berry died. Was it last week? I think
- 33:47it was last week. I know this name from somewhere,
- 33:49but I can't. Can't pinpoint it. He wrote a fantastic,
- 33:55he wrote many great things, but... The book of his
- 33:59that I've been reading the most over the last year
- 34:01or so is... It's a collection of essays called Life
- 34:06is a Miracle. It's a wonderful book. He's just a
- 34:11true American philosopher. He's fantastic. I encourage anybody to get
- 34:18that book and read it. He talks a lot about...
- 34:23about about art and, um, And I remember a long
- 34:29time ago, you used to talk about code as art.
- 34:34Yeah, which I believe it is. Well, he said... He
- 34:40said, all art, let's see, this is a quote from
- 34:42one of his essays. He says, all art that rises
- 34:45above competence insists upon the irreducibility of its subjects, its
- 34:50materials, and its finished works. It makes things that are
- 34:54inherently valuable in themselves and are not interchangeable with other
- 34:58things. To a merely competent carpenter, one sound board may
- 35:03be pretty much the same as another, but to a
- 35:05fine carpenter or a cabinetmaker, every board is unique. The
- 35:09better artist a woodworker becomes, the more aware he or
- 35:12she becomes of the individuality of the boards and of
- 35:16the differences between them. The increase of art accounts for
- 35:19the increase of perception. I think code never was that
- 35:27thing. Or it was only that thing in a super
- 35:31rare circumstance. You were correct. I think you were right
- 35:36about code as art. 100% you were right. I think
- 35:42what the real way to say it would be code
- 35:45can be art in the hands of... A true artist.
- 35:50true code artist. And there's so few people like that.
- 35:56I'm not that person. I never have been. I know,
- 36:00I've seen the freedom controller. Okay, that's fair. See, that's
- 36:04fair. Kind of a low blow. That's fair because everything
- 36:10I do – ends up with just round after round
- 36:14after round of bugs of not just bug fixes but
- 36:18absurdly ludicrous bug fixes bug fixes that a true code
- 36:25artist would never make but i'm just not that guy
- 36:30Most people are not that if we if we just
- 36:32do a comparison So when you hear an AI generated
- 36:37song. which you hear. You can hear it. You can
- 36:42still hear it. A lot of people don't. We've got
- 36:44a lot of women on the text groups here in
- 36:46Fredericksburg. Oh, look at this song. This woman is so
- 36:48phenomenal. And then Tina will say, yeah, it's great. It's
- 36:51AI. Oh, I hate it. It sucks. It's no good.
- 36:54um I believe that code is probably at the same
- 36:58level as AI music. It sounds good. It's perfectly played.
- 37:05It has the right construct. If you really look at
- 37:08it, if you know that it's AI, it's vibe-coded, then
- 37:12it's no good. But it is. It is. And it
- 37:15is art unto itself. It's stolen. It's stuck together. But
- 37:20it works. And it's a toe tapper. It is. I
- 37:28know true- we- we know true. Code Artists Paul. Yes.
- 37:34John Spurlock. Yes. Alice Gates. Yes. We, Eric P.P., we
- 37:41know. People like this. That is not... who I am
- 37:46and that is not who most developers are. Most developers
- 37:52are somewhere in the middle between between competent and good.
- 38:00somewhere in that range. And for those people, just like
- 38:06somebody who's... framing a house. The fine details of which
- 38:13board to choose. is just not a thing that you
- 38:16can think about. You're not going to know enough to
- 38:20really know. Like, I recently had an experience where a
- 38:24guy that I client that is the father of. one
- 38:30of the girls on the climbing team with my daughter
- 38:32at the rock climbing gym. He is now, this guy
- 38:36is a master woodworker. He, people hire him to do.
- 38:41like $25 million beachfront mansion, you know, wine rooms and
- 38:47stuff like that. I mean, this guy is top of
- 38:50the heap. a very selective client base, you know, high
- 38:54dollar. and His stuff is unbelievable, but he's also an
- 39:00extremely nice guy. And so I was doing a project
- 39:03to replicate some molding in our old house here. And
- 39:09he was like, yeah, come over to the shop. I'll
- 39:10help you. And so I go over to the shop.
- 39:13I've done woodworking plenty of times in the past. I
- 39:17get to his shop. And I've got, you know, I've
- 39:19got... When you realize I've never really done woodworking. Exactly.
- 39:23Yes, exactly. This guy, he... He's like, okay, well, the
- 39:29first thing you need to do is we need to
- 39:31map the way this grain is going so that when
- 39:35we send it through the planer. It's got a... You're
- 39:39buzzing. Yeah, no, this is weird. Move the chocolate. I
- 39:44don't know how to... There it goes again. Okay, sorry.
- 39:48So that when it's going through the planer with the
- 39:51grain in the right direction, and then we end up
- 39:53with, we've got like hand planes out running down the,
- 39:58it came out so.
- 39:58came out so gorgeous. I would have never even known
- 40:03to ask the questions that he asked. So you got
- 40:06to bring it back to the work you're doing on
- 40:08the index. Okay, you feel me fading is what you're
- 40:12saying? Yeah, well, you're doing the weave, man. Okay. Sometimes
- 40:16I weave so hard that I don't ever come back.
- 40:18This is a fair criticism. Weave it back. I'm just
- 40:22the ref here. Offsides Podsage. The... So. In this process,
- 40:34I start going and I'm getting more and more dependent.
- 40:40on this plan that The AI thing wrote. Oh, you
- 40:45still do plan mode. YOLO, baby. YOLO. It wasn't plan
- 40:52mode technically. It was the brainstorming thing. And the plan
- 40:57that it developed was after a couple of days of
- 41:03reading it, it was clearly the correct plan. And the
- 41:08problem is it was so complex that it would have
- 41:12still taken me like a year to do it. And
- 41:15so I start letting it do piece after piece after
- 41:17piece. And so then, and I'm reviewing, because this is
- 41:21an established code base, this is a fairly easy process.
- 41:24I'm reviewing the code as it goes in and it's
- 41:27happening, it's been happening over the last few weeks in
- 41:30phases. And the first phase was just updating the database
- 41:35schema. And I had to have just a couple of
- 41:37momentary down times on the index for that to happen,
- 41:41like maybe, you know, five minutes. and then the schema
- 41:48created the podcast table an audit table and a merge
- 41:53candidates table so the way that it works is the
- 42:00podcast table is going to have the podcast table does
- 42:03have a reference in it to the feed id of
- 42:08the feeds table so that'll be the guid or the
- 42:11ident the This is where it gets confusing. The podcast
- 42:19table was seeded from the feeds table. And this is
- 42:25relevant. I'm laying all this out because people who consume
- 42:29our output, whether it's the... the weekly feed dump, or
- 42:35whether it's the full database export in JSON format, you'll
- 42:42need to be aware of this because new things are
- 42:44going to show up in those data sets. Well, that's
- 42:50going to be... is the conflict queue, but maybe we're
- 42:52not there yet. Yeah, we're going to get there in
- 42:55a second. Okay. So the podcast table was seeded. from
- 43:03the feeds table so that the initial batch of IDs
- 43:07would match. So they track one for one. So no
- 43:11agenda is 41504 in the news feeds table. It's also
- 43:1641504 ID in the podcast table. Because we're awesome. Yes,
- 43:23because there's one feed. Yeah, that made sense. So initially
- 43:29everything got seeded that way. Yeah. But that's... stay no
- 43:40the the way it's going to be moving forward is
- 43:42in the whole I have three feeds that are truly
- 43:48just the same. merge thing that will be a merge
- 43:54process that happens. putt and then let's Bye. may actually
- 44:04reference newsfeed table ID 276. Right. Okay, but how –
- 44:11I'll keep going. I'll save my questions for later. So
- 44:18that process of creating the phase one of creating the
- 44:22database schema that will hold this information and tie everything
- 44:25together, then you had the next phase two, which is
- 44:30the ingestion pipeline. So every – Every function in the
- 44:36API that consumes a podcast feed, so brings one in
- 44:41and adds it to the feeds table, now creates the
- 44:46feed entry in the feeds table and a podcast entry
- 44:49in the podcast table and also does a batch of
- 44:53checking to see if it's a duplicate in any way.
- 44:58And if it is, it puts it into the merge
- 45:02queue. Mmm, there it is. It sees it as a
- 45:10merge candidate. It's possible. the same feed. based on a
- 45:17set of heuristics, whether the GUIDs match, whether the feed
- 45:22URL, whether the feed content matches based on a set
- 45:25of hash criteria. What the iTunes ID is, I'm sure,
- 45:29is part of that? Yes, just the straight-up title of
- 45:36the pipe. So these are all, it's trying to decide,
- 45:38could this possibly be a match for something? And then
- 45:42it... finds a possible match, it creates a merge. entry
- 45:50is a separate and so that was sort of phase
- 45:53two is now we've got the we've got the database
- 45:57function we got a the date you And all... All
- 46:06the ingestion pipeline. entry where appropriate. The next phase was
- 46:23pass and also changing the exports the public data set
- 46:31Those are going to now contain the podcast table ID
- 46:36as well. So you're going to have – and remember,
- 46:40the goal of all this is to have no existing
- 46:45podcast interrupted or changed in any way. Right. So that
- 46:52podcasting 2.0, which is 920666, is going to continue to
- 46:56be 920666 even after all this is done. And so
- 47:02you're going to see the podcast table ID along with
- 47:08the feed ID in there. And in the future, there's
- 47:12also going to be extra columns. audit history and one
- 47:19of the goals is to make it where we can
- 47:23track a podcast. so that we can look back for
- 47:28any podcast. Let's say that it's, you know, the Everything
- 47:34Everywhere podcast, the history podcast. So we could look back
- 47:40into that podcast's history and say, okay, it used to
- 47:44be hosted on Lipson, then it moved to Buzzsprout, then
- 47:47it moved to Cast. then it moved to we can
- 47:50just see the whole lineage of this podcast. where it's
- 48:02supposed to be now. You know, what its canonical feeling
- 48:06is. Okay, now pop me to the top. So now
- 48:10my podcast has this, it has a podcast ID. What
- 48:16do you call it exactly? ID. And for whatever reason,
- 48:25there's three different feeds. is being updated because someone hijacked
- 48:33that feed, but that's not the one that is my
- 48:37actual feed and I want my podcast ID to point
- 48:40to the correct feed, how do I interact with the
- 48:46index to get that done? We'll interact with it in
- 48:50the same way that you always have through the dashboard.
- 48:52Oh, okay. So nothing gets done. I got it. Okay.
- 48:57But that's for manual review. So the good thing about
- 49:03this new process is that the podcast merge candidate queue
- 49:11table. Oh, wait. This is actually going to be good.
- 49:15Because then when people say they send an email and
- 49:18says, this is wrong, this is the wrong feed, that
- 49:20that should be this feed, I will go into the
- 49:21should be this feed.
- 49:24dashboard. It will show me all those feeds, and I
- 49:27select the one that is the correct one. Yes. That
- 49:30whole rigmarole of merging and everything in the dashboard. Yes.
- 49:34Okay. Yes. Good. If all of this goes... plan. Which
- 49:42is a big if. Yeah. I love it. By the
- 49:46time somebody emails us and says, hey, I've got blah,
- 49:51blah, blah. Can you fix this? The merge candidate queue
- 49:56should already... have identified the problem. and is giving you
- 50:02is giving you the choices. how to fix it. That's
- 50:08worst case scenario. That's when a human has to get
- 50:12involved. If I think many of these cases, 75 percent
- 50:19of them. just be automatically conflict resolved. Ooh. And the
- 50:26rest will be done by Clippy. No, Potty Bot. Potty
- 50:30Bot, I'm sorry. I'm going to write Potty Bot. Potty
- 50:33Bot's going to be running on this big honking box,
- 50:36Potty Bot. Well, that's phase five of the... That's phase
- 50:40five of this plan, this potty bod. Well, okay, so
- 50:43can I just interject something? Cheers. Because we still have
- 50:49a big problem, and this comes down to heuristics and
- 50:53your robot there. A lot of feeds. are being removed
- 50:59because I believe they are deemed to be AI generated
- 51:03or something. And they get removed from the index. Is
- 51:07there a process running that is checking this stuff and
- 51:09is removing stuff because it thinks it's a. Uh... It's
- 51:16generated by AI. I have not been run during this
- 51:24process for so for last. Probably two weeks I have
- 51:28not run the AI classifier at all. The reason why
- 51:33I ask, I'm just inserting this for entertainment value, Dave.
- 51:38I got a, there was a request that came in
- 51:40and someone said, hey, why is this BPTS podcast being
- 51:44taken down? gives me an RSS feed like okay it's
- 51:51it is it's marked dead it's not dead it's marked
- 51:55dead and I go listen to it I'm like this
- 51:58is what it sounds like You can't always get what
- 52:02you want. But if you try something... It's just my
- 52:05fault. Get what you need. And that's what we're going
- 52:09to talk about today. This is a real person speaking.
- 52:12With a voice. So a vocoder or something or whatever
- 52:16it is. I'll fast forward a little bit here. At
- 52:21the end of the day, really, I mean, what are
- 52:22we? Who are we? Now, the thing that amazed me
- 52:26is that there's a fan out there. who was like,
- 52:29hey, this podcast, I listened to this podcast and it's
- 52:32not on the index. I'm like, wow, okay. I just
- 52:36wanted to say that there's stuff out there that I
- 52:39would deem completely unacceptable. As a podcast. But someone's listening
- 52:45to this. and likes it. Was this a fan that
- 52:50emailed or was this a podcast? No, a listener. I
- 52:53think it's a listener. What do we have to become?
- 52:56Anything? Does it matter? The host is Max Static. Yeah,
- 53:00no kidding. Peace. We're getting off into the abyss. So,
- 53:08okay, I was just wondering how that got, you know,
- 53:11how that got Mark dead. That's just... I didn't really
- 53:15understand. Well, let me see if I can tell. Oh,
- 53:18wait. I think I might know what the issue is
- 53:21here. No? Okay. Well, hold on here. I'm going to
- 53:25give you the RSS feed in the boardroom. In Signal?
- 53:29In the boardroom. Let the boardroom enjoy it. So I
- 53:33see it as Friday, September 11th. It has a proper
- 53:37last build date. But I look at the index. I
- 53:40restored it. The most recent episode is December 31st, 1969.
- 53:46I don't know why. Is that a... Okay. Is that
- 53:50somehow a... It declares the namespace, this feed. I'm just
- 53:57not sure why it's... What's the host? hosting company. His
- 54:03own hosting company. bbts.d4rk.army slash podcast.rss Weird. Okay. Generator Faircamp
- 54:151.7.0 Unknown Revision Anyway, just dark army. Yeah. I just,
- 54:27so you gave me the answer. I don't know when
- 54:29this was. Well, you said you haven't run anything, so
- 54:33I'm going to take that to be. Did you mark
- 54:35it legit or was it? Yeah, I marked it legit
- 54:37and it restored. So we're... When you first got in
- 54:42there, was it marked as spam? It was marked dead.
- 54:44It's hard to see if it's marked spam because it
- 54:47just has the three buttons there. I don't know where
- 54:49you... I don't know. You can mark it legit or
- 54:52call it spam. Where it says, do you see it
- 54:56in the dashboard right now? No. Well, it says it's
- 55:00got a legit badge next to it. It would have
- 55:03said it would have had a spam badge next to
- 55:05it if it had been marked, if it had been
- 55:07marked as. if it had been killed because of a
- 55:10spam calls. If it didn't have that, it was just
- 55:14automatically killed because something was wrong with the feed, maybe.
- 55:18Okay, well, I didn't see the little flag anywhere. I
- 55:23see it now. I marked it legit, so that's why
- 55:25it says legit now, but it's a dead yes. So
- 55:32I don't know. It has no... It still has a
- 55:37problem with the episode. There are no dates. There's no
- 55:40pub dates in any of these items. Okay, so it
- 55:43could have been delisted because of that. This is a
- 55:47very screwed up feed. Yes, I agree. I saw that
- 55:52too. I didn't want to distract too much. Okay, so
- 55:56now we're in the process. Are we running that currently?
- 55:58Good. No, I'm not doing anything automated currently. Now, the
- 56:03Swedish trickler. He is going in and hand-coating some stuff.
- 56:08He's doing some curation. Oh, okay. Good. But, I mean,
- 56:11he's one man. Yes, just a lonely man. He's just
- 56:16a man. He can't be, you know, the home of
- 56:20doom metal. There's no way he could possibly. The killing
- 56:26hundreds of feeds a day so i don't i don't
- 56:28think so okay all right okay So back to your
- 56:33identity table. Yeah, so I... What's the status? Where are
- 56:40you at? Are you close? So where it's at currently
- 56:45is... I've just run... The initial. phase four stuff to
- 56:59rewrite. bunch of the external a bunch of the so
- 57:04okay so the databases is handled the exporters are handled
- 57:11and the ingestion pipeline is handled What? The next phase
- 57:17is the actual API endpoints. that deliver the content itself.
- 57:22And that is the part that scares me the most.
- 57:26And... So this is gonna take... a while of I
- 57:32don't know, a week or so, I feel like, and
- 57:36this could be a little bit at a time. with
- 57:39a lot of testing and that is another reason that
- 57:43I've become so dependent for this project. on the AI
- 57:49stuff because it... I need to know for a fact.
- 57:55debt. when it rewrites an API endpoint, that the previous
- 58:03content and the new content are byte identical. I don't
- 58:09want, I can't afford to have any nasty surprises. Right.
- 58:12Got it. So there's a time, I've just, it's been
- 58:17riding. a ton of integration tests. to do pre-post checking
- 58:25on it. I had it spin up a dev environment,
- 58:28which I've never had before. You know me, I've always
- 58:30live edited the production. That's where I learned it from.
- 58:33I learned it from you, okay. By watching you. And
- 58:38so, I mean, I'm the guy that just jumps into
- 58:42PHPStorm, makes an edit in the PHP, and does deploy.
- 58:46Save. Yeah, exactly. Control S. And so, I mean, actually
- 58:52having a dev environment and... and unit tests and that
- 58:56kind of thing. I mean, it has made me feel
- 58:58like I'm in a warm, fuzzy blanket. Right. And you're
- 59:01using your agent for this, which is your Pi agent
- 59:04on the RTX box. I was using, yes, I was
- 59:09using the Pi agent to do, what I was doing
- 59:12was using... Claude using the fable model to generate expensive
- 59:18expensive. That's why yeah I was using the fable model
- 59:21to write the plan and then having pi do all
- 59:23the execution and What I figured out is really it's
- 59:30not. that necessary because when When Claude, the expensive part
- 59:39is the planning. but when once That part is done
- 59:44like pretty much any model on the planet can run.
- 59:47Can do it. So once you have, you do the
- 59:49plan with Fable and then you switch over to Quinn.
- 59:53Yeah, and Quinn was just... Quinn 3.0 was just so
- 59:57slow that I was like, well, I'll just...
- 1:00:00run it and it's not even using very much usage
- 1:00:03so I just let it stay on there. So I'm
- 1:00:05using the Quint model for the post checking so it's
- 1:00:11monitoring and telling me I've got a batch of podcasts
- 1:00:15that is monitoring on the API. and telling me When
- 1:00:21I make a change. If I get an alert. It's
- 1:00:26going to let me know that something changed. And it's
- 1:00:30also watching... the logs over tail scale. So it's a
- 1:00:37fairly, I'm just so nervous about this that I'm trying
- 1:00:41to have as many agentic eyeballs on it as I
- 1:00:44can. You're anthropomorphizing it. It has no eyeballs. It does
- 1:00:52not. Yes, that's right. Quinn 3.827B. That's right, Eric. in
- 1:01:01found that um cause of this project. And because it
- 1:01:11has sucked me into a particular way of doing things.
- 1:01:15that is just I'm now... I think there's a lot
- 1:01:21going on because I just was never a unit test
- 1:01:24guy. because it takes so long and every project that
- 1:01:29I'm involved in requires go fast, go fast, go fast.
- 1:01:33I mean, I cannot sit there and write. When you
- 1:01:36only get an hour a day to code, you can't
- 1:01:39spend the whole hour writing two unit tests. I mean,
- 1:01:42it's going to take you three weeks before you can
- 1:01:43ever even write the real function. And that's the issue
- 1:01:48that I'm running into and it's forcing me into a
- 1:01:51new way of doing things. And I know it is
- 1:01:54for other people, too. And you're enjoying it. You're enjoying
- 1:01:56it. I can tell. You're enjoying it. I know you
- 1:01:58are. You're liking it. You figured it out. I know
- 1:02:03you have. say it. Say it. Bye. Yes. I like.
- 1:02:19the I like the ability that it has given me
- 1:02:24that I did not have before. being able to properly
- 1:02:30test things. because I was always YoloGuy. because of speed.
- 1:02:39I needed to just get this thing off my checklist
- 1:02:42so I could move to the next thing. And I
- 1:02:44can confidently say that I would have just never done
- 1:02:48this project. I just never would have. I think YOLO
- 1:02:52guy is a potential show title. YOLO guy. YOLO guy
- 1:02:58is fun to be around, but nobody wants him on
- 1:03:01their staff. But you don't buy drugs from him, okay?
- 1:03:04No, no, no. No, you don't buy your drugs from
- 1:03:08him, and you also don't want him running your podcast
- 1:03:10index. No. So, you know. But just look at you,
- 1:03:15man. You're running Omachi? You're, uh, you're YOLOing. You're using
- 1:03:20agentic coding. I have corrupted you. I am so proud
- 1:03:23of myself. I mean. If I keep going in this
- 1:03:27direction, I'm gonna be used- I'm gonna be- before- Good
- 1:03:30job, Adam. Ha ha ha, you've brought him to the
- 1:03:33dark side. At this rate, I'll be writing Ruby by
- 1:03:37the end of the year, which nobody wants. Nobody wants
- 1:03:42this. So we're... We're getting there. It's just a slow
- 1:03:49process by design because... Now, I may not be writing
- 1:03:55this code, but... You better believe I'm looking at every
- 1:03:59line of it because I don't. Yeah. I don't trust
- 1:04:03any of it. And it has already caught. Critical mistakes.
- 1:04:08Like more than one. There's been many times where I've
- 1:04:13said, where something just gave me pause and I said,
- 1:04:18"Okay, I need you to check this." I want a
- 1:04:23test suite specifically for this and this and this. It
- 1:04:29ran off and ran the test code for 20 minutes
- 1:04:34or so and it came back and it was like,
- 1:04:35critical bug. Oh yeah, yeah. I've seen this. And this
- 1:04:40is why I think... experience of system design and even
- 1:04:47if you're not a good coder as long as you
- 1:04:49understand system architecture and the way things are supposed to
- 1:04:52operate. you can properly handle these things. Because something gives
- 1:05:00you a spidey sense that, eh, I don't think this
- 1:05:02feels, something about this doesn't feel correct. And that's something
- 1:05:06that a person without the experience would not feel. No,
- 1:05:10you need it because these things go off the rails
- 1:05:13all the time. They're like, no, but I don't think
- 1:05:15you need to do it. Oh, you're right. Oh, it
- 1:05:17was in my memory file. Yeah, let me just check
- 1:05:20that. Yeah, okay. Yes, my bad. Yeah. Yeah. You have
- 1:05:26to understand what you're doing. I won't. No, I'm not
- 1:05:29writing it. It's all sustained in PHP. is staying in
- 1:05:32PHP for, and one reason to staying in PHP is
- 1:05:36because If there's one language that I am actually good
- 1:05:41at, it's PHP. Now, let's just take the jump here.
- 1:05:46So this will... somehow integrate with our our PodPain Cloud.
- 1:05:56our cloud of bathroom running nodes. Get the bat ears.
- 1:06:03Right? Y-yes. And that will be – there's a whole
- 1:06:11long list of things to come after this, but this
- 1:06:14is the critical one. Then once we get this thing
- 1:06:17out of the way. Then the whole thing is going
- 1:06:19to be decentralized, hash space, and we can retire. I
- 1:06:24am so looking forward to this day. Um... Yeah, and
- 1:06:31then we'll start figuring out how to ship it, how
- 1:06:34to ship the database. Oh, this is going to be
- 1:06:36so cool. I mean, I can't believe I'm excited about
- 1:06:39this, but it's going to be cool. Ship the database.
- 1:06:44Love that. What I want is for everybody to have
- 1:06:48some kind of. dashboard or something running at all the
- 1:06:52time. Everybody who's got an interest in this project, I
- 1:06:54want them to all be able to just have some
- 1:06:56sort of interface where they're seeing what is happening in
- 1:07:00the internals of the index at all times. Anybody, any
- 1:07:06trusted admin of the index can get in and... process
- 1:07:12of merge queue candidate. Isn't it amazing that this is
- 1:07:16the stuff that you're working on, that we're discussing, that
- 1:07:19the boardroom is doing, that this project is doing? Value
- 1:07:22for value, by the way. And meanwhile, in New York,
- 1:07:26everyone's arriving for podcast movement. They're going to talk for
- 1:07:30three days about what is a play. What is a
- 1:07:36play? I just find that amazing. All the people making
- 1:07:41money over there talking about what's a play? And we
- 1:07:44are building the future of the – I was talking
- 1:07:47with Tina today. She says, um... What is a play?
- 1:07:52She said, what is a play? Because, you know, there's
- 1:07:56transitions in my life and things are changing and things
- 1:07:59are happening. You know, my co-host died, so things are
- 1:08:02changing. And we're just talking about stuff. She says, why
- 1:08:05do you do Podcasting 2.0? valid question valid question you
- 1:08:11may have received this question yourself and i said And
- 1:08:15I didn't even have to think too long about it.
- 1:08:17It says, because it is a critical part of who
- 1:08:21I am and what I do. Because without this, my
- 1:08:27entire existence could be in jeopardy. Imagine I have to
- 1:08:31go suck up to Spotify and Apple and Google and
- 1:08:34everybody to get my stuff out. and It's also... It's
- 1:08:43even the little things, you know, it's like the funding
- 1:08:45tag, it's the chapters, it's the transcripts, all the things
- 1:08:48that we've worked on. And then I followed up by.
- 1:08:51But you think that's bad? You should look at what
- 1:08:53Dave's doing for this thing. You make no money from
- 1:08:59it. I said, no, but that's not the point. It
- 1:09:00is fundamental, and I would say for both of us,
- 1:09:03to who we are and what we do. Yes. And
- 1:09:09my wife asks me this same question, and I ask
- 1:09:11myself this same question all the time. Does it usually
- 1:09:13come when the Amex bill arrives? That's when I usually
- 1:09:16get this question. It usually comes when the house is
- 1:09:21super dirty and I'm like... I'm like, I got to
- 1:09:26just give me one minute. I've got to finish this
- 1:09:29thing. Oh, I'll be right there. Oh, no, no, no,
- 1:09:32man. I've learned this. This is not good. You just
- 1:09:34got to freeze that thing. Freeze. Just walk away. Yeah,
- 1:09:40no, I... I agree. It's become... It's part of your
- 1:09:47DNA. It's just part of my DNA. It is. Yes,
- 1:09:51Charlie. It is. I feel it in my DNA. Now
- 1:09:55I need to find that clip. And also a lot
- 1:09:59of
- 1:10:00things in the podcast world now depend on the index.
- 1:10:05It's not just a hobby. Here we go. Tell me
- 1:10:09about this sexuality. It's in your DNA. Yeah. Well, can
- 1:10:14we talk about the latest integration of the index into
- 1:10:18a product that has a couple of people who use
- 1:10:21it? I don't know where you're going. 120 million users.
- 1:10:32of an app? got me. Starts with a V. Wow.
- 1:10:48I'm having a brain fart, I guess. I feel like
- 1:10:50I should know this. Okay, one word. Oh, yeah. Can
- 1:10:54we talk about that? I don't know if we can
- 1:10:56talk about it. Why not? Is it super secret? I
- 1:10:58don't think it's super secret. No one said don't talk
- 1:11:00about it. I mean look at the email. Did they
- 1:11:07say don't talk about it? It's under embargo. We've signed
- 1:11:13an NDA about our DNA. Yeah, I mean, they don't
- 1:11:21talk about it. It's up to you. It's your discretion.
- 1:11:25At my discretion, thank you. That's what we say when
- 1:11:28landing. Do you think I can land this plane? At
- 1:11:29your discretion. We hope. Yeah. No, we got a nice
- 1:11:34email, a very nice email, real developer dudes, because they're
- 1:11:38like, hey, man, we'd really like to build in the
- 1:11:41index into our product. uh but we don't want to
- 1:11:45swamp you what do we do and so we came
- 1:11:47up with some caching discussions etc And I think it's
- 1:11:51just phenomenal that VLC is looking to integrate the index
- 1:11:57into their product. That's just amazing. This is why... This
- 1:12:07is why it's not just some sort of hobby or
- 1:12:10like something that I can ignore. Yeah, this is important.
- 1:12:13This is like really, this is amazing stuff. Yeah, it
- 1:12:17has to, I mean, things, the more things start to
- 1:12:20depend on. the index, the more, I mean, we can't,
- 1:12:26we don't have Apple money or Spotify money or something
- 1:12:29like that. So we will never be, we'll never have.
- 1:12:32you know, 27 nines up time or whatever that is.
- 1:12:36But we can have a reliable, stable product that people
- 1:12:40can depend on. Yeah. That is possible. That's very possible.
- 1:12:43And I was thinking, you know, will they put somewhere
- 1:12:46on in the site or somewhere on their app like,
- 1:12:49hey, you know, this podcast is from the podcast index
- 1:12:52value for value. Consider supporting them for this wonderful service.
- 1:12:56I hope so. They're free, aren't they? I don't think
- 1:12:58there's a... Do they have a, do they have a,
- 1:13:02are they, let me see. I think it's donation supported.
- 1:13:05It should be. Let me see. free and open source
- 1:13:09media, play on the corner. Help and join us. Join
- 1:13:15us. and they give me a little website how to
- 1:13:19contribute. Oh, they're a nonprofit organization. Oh, they're hardcore. Oh
- 1:13:26good, see- I love stuff like this. I love –
- 1:13:31I love when... Groups like this, open source groups and
- 1:13:36nonprofits, that kind of thing, can use the index because
- 1:13:38I know it really makes a big impact on their
- 1:13:40bottom. Yeah. You know, and that's a big deal for
- 1:13:44me because we've had, me and you've talked, we've had
- 1:13:47Zoom meetings with like Mozilla and stuff like that in
- 1:13:49the past. Yeah. That's all, I mean, I like. I
- 1:13:53like helping these kind of guys out. They're clearly not
- 1:13:56in it for the money. Well, I don't know. They
- 1:13:59may be doing very well. I mean... This is an
- 1:14:02interesting group of people. President John Baptiste Kempf, Vice President
- 1:14:06Konstantin Pavlov. These are foreigners, man. Vice President of Events,
- 1:14:13Vibhuthi. Treasurer Thomas Gullim. Secretary Felix Paul Kuhne. I gotta
- 1:14:21check it out, let me see. Let's see how much
- 1:14:25money they have. video land. I bet it's not a
- 1:14:29ton. You don't know. You don't know. 120 million people
- 1:14:35using it. That's... How many of those? Actually donate. Well,
- 1:14:421% would be quite good. Robot, find the form 990
- 1:15:00for the... it. video land let's say I love doing
- 1:15:06this stuff. Okay, choice A, oh, form 990 does not
- 1:15:12exist. Oh, they're not a US registered. Okay, well, that
- 1:15:16makes sense. Oh, they are French. They are French. Oh,
- 1:15:21Benjamin Bellamy can walk over to their office. Show me
- 1:15:25your papers. He can tap on the door. Yeah. Yeah,
- 1:15:31there must be not a theory. Isn't the European parlance
- 1:15:37for that a public interest corporation? Well, they say on
- 1:15:40their website. nonprofit organization based in France. There you go,
- 1:15:45based in France. Okay. But I don't know. The French
- 1:15:51typically... Yeah, they get government money. I was going to
- 1:15:55say that, yes, but to me, from my experience in
- 1:16:00this project, the French typically either love us or hate
- 1:16:04us. And so Benjamin loves us. Yeah. But what was
- 1:16:08that group that we tried to deal with with Bitcoin
- 1:16:10stuff? And they were like that. Which one? Oh, no,
- 1:16:18that was the French guys. That was the other French
- 1:16:20guys. What is the the lightning app? That's what it
- 1:16:24was. The lightning app. French. Come on, boardroom. The French
- 1:16:30Lightning App Wasn't it A-C-I-N-Q? Wasn't that the name of
- 1:16:34the... Something like that, yeah. Oh, that guy was arrogant.
- 1:16:38I know, oxymoron. Async Lightning Node. It wasn't async. It
- 1:16:45was something else. Yeah. Yeah. Whatever it was. Yeah. But
- 1:16:51yeah. So you can do whatever you want in America.

- 1:17:58about to bring a whole bunch of potential traffic to
- 1:18:00you. We don't want to crush you. How do we
- 1:18:02work with you? I've been thinking about 120 million users.
- 1:18:06And I know a lot of people, because I know
- 1:18:08because whenever I screw up something with the ID3 tags
- 1:18:11or don't put the right image into the MP3 file,
- 1:18:15the VLC users come out. Hey, man, I listen to
- 1:18:19this on VLC. So who knows what kind? They may
- 1:18:23be putting a full-blown podcast client in it. that would
- 1:18:28make in the world of podcasting. Does Omarchi have a
- 1:18:32VLC in it? I don't know. Let's try VLC. Yeah.
- 1:18:37I don't know. Or is it called VideoLan? I just
- 1:18:39do a super space and then type VLC. Don't you
- 1:18:43know how to launch apps, Dave? Super space VLC. And
- 1:18:47type in VLC. There is no VLC. Oh, I must
- 1:18:50have installed it myself. You have it on yours? Yeah,

- 1:19:31step three. I just want to see what their current
- 1:19:34podcast situation is. Oh, I don't think they have any
- 1:19:37podcast situation going on. Playback, audio, video, tools. I don't
- 1:19:44see any of the program guide. What is that? That's
- 1:19:47nothing. What, MVLC? No, there's nothing in there yet. Yeah,
- 1:19:50there's nothing in there. No, they're building it. Next release.

- 1:27:07as silk i've noticed it yes it is it feels
- 1:27:09very smooth what are you using what did you vibe
- 1:27:12code It's something that I don't even understand it, but
- 1:27:16it works, but it works. It goes into the. It
- 1:27:20reaches into the heart of the LB hub. Oh, wow.
- 1:27:25And rips out the boost and puts them in an
- 1:27:27HTML file. That's awesome. Yeah. The world is changing, brother.
- 1:27:35I will say that I've never seen an industry change
- 1:27:38so fast. as coding. Yeah, it's crazy. It went from...
- 1:27:46All hand code to all AI code. Remember, I went
- 1:27:49like three months. I went from copy pasting in Gemini.
- 1:27:54Remember I was doing that? And Grog. I started with
- 1:27:58Grok, then Gemini. And I would literally, I'd say, this
- 1:28:00doesn't work. And then do another version. I do select
- 1:28:03all, copy, then go to my editor, paste. And then
- 1:28:07you said, hey, Matt, you should try a CLI thing.
- 1:28:09I'm like, oh, okay. Yeah, you were grumpy about that.
- 1:28:14But once I figured it out, I never looked back.
- 1:28:16And now I'm doing the same to other people. I'm
- 1:28:18saying, hey. You should try Grokbot. Have you seen that?
- 1:28:21Grokbot? Dude. It is changing people's lives. I think it
- 1:28:27was part of the acquisition by, what did XAI buy?
- 1:28:35The... thing they bought. Cursor? Cursor, yes. So you can
- 1:28:45run it on your computer. You run it on an
- 1:28:48app. same thing and it gives you a cloud computer
- 1:28:53which you can actually see. There's like a little, do
- 1:28:55you see the little cloud computer, a little desktop? and
- 1:28:58you can fire up little bots and the whole idea
- 1:29:02is that you tell each bot to do something specific
- 1:29:06like scan for this or look for that or calculate
- 1:29:10this and then you have a master bot, master botter
- 1:29:16and the master botter checks everything else and is coordinating
- 1:29:20for you. It's like agents for dummies. Nothing wrong, nothing
- 1:29:27bad will happen from this. Well, so Dana Brunetti, Hollywood
- 1:29:32producer. Celebrate Hollywood producer from such famous movies such as
- 1:29:36Captain Phillips house of cards Shades of Grey. Shades of
- 1:29:43Grey was a Christian band. The real money maker. and
- 1:29:47he's going to do the show with me on Sunday.
- 1:29:50He said, I'll do the show. Okay, come and do
- 1:29:52the show since you think you know everything, Hollywood man.
- 1:29:55And he's like, "Why should I do clips?" That's it.
- 1:29:59Okay, you can do.
- 1:30:00You can go get Audacity and you can record stuff
- 1:30:03or you can just use Grokbot and just give it
- 1:30:06a YouTube video link and say, give me the transcript
- 1:30:10and then say, start here, end here, give me an
- 1:30:12MP3. And within five minutes, he's like, oh my God,
- 1:30:16this is so easy. pretty cool bad things are gonna
- 1:30:22happen with this this is the day this is how
- 1:30:25the internet fails I'm not so sure. I don't think
- 1:30:30so. People aren't really doing coding. Well, that's the problem.
- 1:30:36People are doing stuff they don't understand. And on the
- 1:30:38backside of that grog bot, it's hammering 50 websites to
- 1:30:42death. It has guardrails. You don't even know. It has
- 1:30:43guardrails, man. What are you talking about? Whatever. Nothing that
- 1:30:49Elon Musk ever does has guardrails. All right. Let's get
- 1:30:53to Comic Street Blogger, the final booster gram. Yes. 11,111
- 1:30:57sats, he says. Howdy Dave and Adam. Thinking of you
- 1:31:01both on 9/11, I remember learning what happened as I
- 1:31:04was leaving the office. The work colleague had footage of
- 1:31:08the towers on his computer screen. Sending warm thoughts to
- 1:31:11you and your families. Yo, CSB. Worth $15.40 when sent.
- 1:31:18Wow, he didn't even promote a podcast. I feel like
- 1:31:21that's heartfelt from CSP. Yeah, oh, it is. Of course
- 1:31:24it is. He's a very sensitive guy. He also offered
- 1:31:28to run a... MCP server for the index. Yes, but
- 1:31:34it requires... Only under 27 different qualifiers and a binding
- 1:31:38contract. That's pretty funny. I'm like, okay, CSB. I promise
- 1:31:44I will run your MCP server for you. Where should
- 1:31:46I send the DocuSign? you I love that guy. I
- 1:31:52love that. Again, no community is complete without comics or
- 1:31:55blogger. If you want your community to be fully rounded,
- 1:31:59you need CSB in it. And you are fortunate if
- 1:32:02you have him in your community. I did his video
- 1:32:05podcast. You have not. I'm going to. I'm going to.
- 1:32:08I'm going to. I've been a little busy. And I'm
- 1:32:11also trying to time it. For maximum effect. Exactly. All
- 1:32:18right, brother. What are you doing this weekend? Well, we've
- 1:32:21got a, yeah, it's pretty busy. I had my uncle
- 1:32:24passed away this past week. Yeah, I'm sorry. Sorry to
- 1:32:26hear that. Yeah, and we've got a funeral and a
- 1:32:31birthday this weekend. So we get both sides of life.
- 1:32:33Oh, yeah, it's like your partner dying and having a
- 1:32:36grandbaby 24 hours apart. Pretty much, yeah. It seems to
- 1:32:39be the way of the world these days. The older
- 1:32:41you get, the more these things happen, I think. It's
- 1:32:44been the way of the world since day one. And,
- 1:32:47yeah, it's... Thank God that it's balanced in that way.
- 1:32:52Yes. So, so funeral and that's it. Uh, funeral birthday
- 1:32:59And one-year-old birthday and then got some climbing and some
- 1:33:05other things to do with the daughter. Some truck work?
- 1:33:06Any truck work? Any working on the rig, man? Any
- 1:33:08truck? You working on your truck? No. No, I'm doing
- 1:33:11crown molding Sunday. I would rather be working on the
- 1:33:14truck, believe me. All right, everybody. It's in our DNA
- 1:33:17and you're under NDA. That means we will be back
