210 sats \ 1 reply \ @td 8 Jan \ on: I'm Oscar Merry and I'm building Fountain Podcasts. AMA. bitcoin
Dear Oscar, loving Fountain. Thank you for all your hard work.
I often find myself taking notes on a podcast. I would love to see Fountain integrate something along these lines. Technical ability is somewhat limited on my side, but is there some way that this could integrate with nostr? A NIP? I am now of course out of my depth. But a universe of notes linked to Podcast timestamps; wouldn't that be cool.
In the same vein, the transcript function; great, but what would make it actually useful is if it were exportable. Right now it is sad to see it languishing behind a wall. I am sure your contract with Deepgram or whatever you use is the limiting factor here, but I would love to see this change.
Kind regards,
td
Well done, sounds like a good trip!
Personal opinion but something feels wrong with it being written in the present tense.
Lionel Shriver (great name as m/f ambiguous) has a very mixed reception in the UK. Writes for the Spectator, which is a blue (red if you’re USA) publication.
Does the Government have the resources to begin police the confiscation of Bitcoin.
Not to mention that it’s impossible.
Alien technology where capital exists only on your brain.
This is really what I'm really trying to angle at; "they". Why is it so triggering, tribal, and woven into identity (or at least it appears that way to me)?
Also, could you pass me a 2mm allen key, please? Sorry, I mean a 5/64 one.
Maybe it's because I'm not brought up on it but arguably metric measurements more human-centric when you get down small.
Lovely response. I thoroughly endorse your human-centric approach and will give it a mental spin next time I need to notice the temperature.
However, I have to say I rarely, if ever, pay attention to the actual temperature number in daily life. I would typically step out into that crisp 50s morning without having mentally noted the number. in fact the only time I do actually think of a number is when there's frost on the ground.
Now how about weights and lengths?
As somebody who measures a horse in hands, I'm not seeking what's right or wrong or looking to change anybody's mind. I would simply love an eloquent explanation such as the one above.
I don’t dispute what you’re saying but I don’t think you are correct (so in fact I do dispute it, sorry). It’s fine for length; great, in fact, and I would go as far as to say good, but when you factor in volume it’s not a debate.
And this is what I’m getting at. I don’t want you to change - you get to choose! - but why is it such a big deal? Imperial is somehow American (whilst of course being English, as you point out, or more properly British, correct me if I’m wrong), but why?
Is it some kind of fear of/animosity to the non-American world? Or the tacit admission that America is perhaps definitively wrong or inferior regarding something? Or maybe there is some global trade reason would fling the door open to foreign 100mm plastic cheese that the US would otherwise be protected from?
Apologies for the cheese dig.
My instinct tells me it is something to do with the latter though.
I feel like you stopped writing before you finished what you set out to say. Is your point that the word Sat is made up and should be replaced with the ₿ symbol?
Agree, but doesn't cost any time or effort to set your password manager to default to more characters?
I fully endorse grounding but arguably the beauty of it is that you don't need to buy anything to reap its benefits.
That's the whole narrative as to why it isn't endorsed by the "mainstream"; 'ain't no money in touching grass, though sounds like I might be wrong ;)
