“You can’t live in a bitcoin.” Ben Gunn Returns as Atlas Shrugs.
In case you missed our first conversation or want to re listen, heres the link.  https://ungovernablemisfits.com/podcast/bitcoin-wins-faster-through-collaboration-with-antomousb-copy/   Ben Gunn Returns as Atlas Shrugs Intro Quote: “The Solution to Pollution is Dilution” --Ben Gunn Show Description Our friend and fellow pleb, Ben Gunn returns to the show after a testing couple of years in Bitcoin and the wider world, to share what has worked for him, what hasn't, and his thoughts and plans for the future. This is a fantastic follow-up interview to first episode we did in 2021, which if you haven't heard, you must and is here. In this episode, Max and Ben take a stroll around the park in Amsterdam, Netherlands to catch up on what he's been up to since we last met on his woodland back in simpler times. We kick off by reviewing life in the Fiat Mines, and how things are deteriorating in day to day work and relationships. Red tape, higher costs of getting stuff done, how the average person is affected and how it can't continue forever. We discuss the transformational power of acknowledging negative observations and turning them into positive actions. How there are just some things that we have no ability to influence or control, and that it's okay to switch off the doom vendors and focus on what you can build in reply. Getting fit and staying focussed on what's really important. We address the problem of when it's the right time to quit and where it's best to relocate in an increasingly uncertain world. The attractiveness of new locations such as El Salvador, and how leaving a broken system behind can fix many things, but not everything, and how it's all part of a much bigger cycle. The growing relevance of Atlas Shrugged to the world we're seeing around us, and what we can learn from the novel in today's context. We also announce a new project – a series of future shows that will analyse the book from the perspectives of Bitcoiners and as living people in a world of zombies, and help a new reader get to the end! We finish off talking about the pro's and con's of Bitcoin conferences and podcast business models, the pro's and con's of advertising based income vs Value for Value approach. We talk about the risk shifting behaviour of the dominant podcasts, and the impact on the listener's finances, as well as the overwhelming generosity and support of our own loyal fan base. Key Takeaways: The Fiat Mines are getting harder to work in. Where to focus your attention and turn a negative situation into a positive outcome. Meeting Bitcoiners in real life can be an amazing experience, but you can't trust everyone. Zombies are real and how we should be thinking about that in our real lives. Atlas Shrugged is a book written for our times, and we all should learn who John Galt is. Risk shifting behaviour in Bitcoin Podcasts and Conferences, and what to do about it.

Germany, the educational dictatorship - with Ricardo Leppe
Welcome to the "Wild Life Unschooling Podcast." In this episode, we have a special guest, Ricardo Leppe, from the project "Willkommen bei WISSEN SCHAFFT FREIHEIT" (Welcome to Knowledge Creates Freedom). We discuss how the project challenges traditional educational structures, provides free access to education globally, empowers individuals to choose their learning paths, and aims to create a better future through education. At the same time, we talk about different compulsory schooling systems from around the world - and it seems that Germany is educational hell?! "In my opinion, it's one of the strictest forms of governance, particularly when it comes to education, in the world. Maybe North Korea has a more oppressive system, but I can't speak to that as I've never been there. From my perspective, Germany has one of the harshest approaches. I haven't witnessed anything similar in any other country. In other nations, attending school is mandatory, and you're required to do so. However, it's not quite the same as in Germany. In Germany, if you don't send your children to school, sometimes the police will show up at your doorstep as early as the next day. If you disagree with them, they can even take your children away." Luckily, Ricardo is convinced, that the new form of education comes from Germany, and will inspire the world! ;) Join us for this thought-provoking episode, where we explore alternative learning techniques and brain-friendly learning methods for children. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/wildlifeunschooling/message

If you only want to spend time generating one master secret, then generate BIP85 children for a multisig quorum only to then throw away the master secret, sure that works as long as you trust Coldcard or whatever method you use for deriving child keys. The method described in the episode reduces the trust required as the manual process is more transparent.

This episode is primarily describing a technique for dividing one secret into multiple shards. BIP85 is a technique for deriving new child secrets from one parent secret, unlike the shards, these children cannot be combined to get back to the parent. Two distinct use-cases.

What Nostr Did with Ben Arc
“The model we have now which is corrupt and a bit evil, that will probably still exist, it’s just you have a choice as a user to not use that model.”— Ben ArcBen Arc is a free open-source software advocate and founder of LNbits. In this interview, we discuss a range of subjects covering poverty, politics, and technology. We talk about the value of hard work, the impact of Brexit, the potential of decentralized platforms like Nostr, privacy concerns, censorship on social media platforms, and the importance of freedom of speech. - - - - Ben Arc is one of the Bitcoin community's most unheralded heroes’: there are numerous occasions when LNbits, which he co-founded, has been mentioned as a vital cog in the development of new Bitcoin software and hardware across the world, particularly in Africa. Then there is Ben’s leading development in the censor-resistant social network Nostr. And, he was an OG Bitcoin progressive pushing against the dogma that Bitcoin was solely a libertarian tool. In this great podcast, we discuss a range of subjects close to Ben’s heart that fall into the big buckets of politics and technology. Ben has a personal experience of poverty, which has shaped his political views. We talk about this and the most important political event to have affected the UK in our lifetimes, Brexit, which has dominated headlines for years and still continues to divide opinion. We then focus on Ben’s opinions of the potential for decentralized platforms to resist censorship and government interference. Nostr was developed out of an LNbits proof of concept application for a decentralized peer-to-peer marketplace. It has morphed into a technology that's not only revolutionizing the way developers build applications but also facilitates a censorship-resistant global social network. In an era of increasing digital censorship, alternative platforms that prioritize freedom of speech are more important than ever. With the backing of influential figures like Jack Dorsey, Nostr could become a dominant platform in the tech world that disintermediates middlemen and tackles censorship. And it shows the potential of Bitcoin to continue to revolutionize industries. - - - - This episode’s sponsors:Iris Energy - Bitcoin Mining.
