LATEST EPISODE 🔗
Most people misjudge Bitcoin because they have never been given a working definition of wealth. David Deutsch's is the set of transformations you could perform without generating new knowledge, and it explains why a million dollars on a deserted island buys almost nothing, why no fortune in 1924 co…

Bitcoin is a machine for remembering, and it works because of one deliberate hole in its memory. The Coldcard entropy failure filled that hole with facts the world had already written down somewhere, which turned a private key into an explainable object and cost people hundreds of millions of dolla…
Being early and being wrong are the same position, and the original Bitcoin thesis, the one that expected people to figure it out quickly, was 90 percent wrong. Out of that error comes a working definition of value, and underneath it a definition of knowledge: arrangements that keep their shape as …
The intelligent party in a conversation with a frontier model is not the model. Both the people building these systems and the people warning against them assume otherwise, and that shared assumption is the same error the nineteenth century made about gold once the telegraph arrived: mistaking the …
A persistent knowledge structure can only take one shape. Information is physical, verification is asymmetric, and those two facts force a Gabriel’s horn topology on anything that wants to keep growing. The interesting move is to run the same test against artificial intelligence, since most o…
P versus NP is the question of whether finding a solution is genuinely harder than checking one. Almost every working mathematician believes finding is harder, and the entirety of modern digital security assumes they’re right. The same asymmetry runs through Einstein deriving E equals MC squa…
Somewhere in the world a person has either lost their private keys or has chosen to take them to the grave, and a fixed quantity of Bitcoin will never move again. The surface answer is that the holder gave up purchasing power. This episode argues that what they actually gave up, in a strict physica…

In 1641, Evangelista Torricelli rotated the curve y = 1/x around the horizontal axis and obtained a shape whose interior volume converges to π while its surface area diverges to infinity. Mathematicians of the day called it an abomination. Three centuries…
In 1973, Jacob Bekenstein, then John Wheeler’s graduate student at Princeton, demonstrated that a black hole’s entropy is proportional to its surface area, a formula that Stephen Hawking and Brandon Carter would later confirm despite setting out to disprove it. The result has been treat…
In 1948, Claude Shannon published A Mathematical Theory of Communication and solved, in a single paper, the problem of how to transmit a signal reliably through a noisy channel. He did it by deliberately excluding meaning from his formal definition of information,a move that was correct for the eng…
