From Episode 814 of The Bitcoin And . . . Podcast, "Beyond Bukele".

(Transcribed for 60 sats using timestamps in nostr:npub1l2vyh47mk2p0qlsku7hg0vn29faehy9hy34ygaclpn66ukqp3afqutajft 's Highlighter.com. Thank you for this wonderful tool, Pablo!)

NOTE: I edited the verbiage returned from the AI transcribe process AND Pablo's npub is set to receive 50% of all zaps to this note as I set that up in nostrudel.ninja

"If you think that there is not a host of the most evil scumbagery waiting in the wings to reverse everything that Bukele has done and let's not even consider the whole Bitcoin thing. Let's make an assumption right here and now that Bitcoin isn't even a thing . . . like it never happened. Just what he's done for the citizenry of El Salvador where it comes to the gangs and the crime. That could come flooding back. Why?

Because gangs and organized crime is the unspoken force of nature that governments use to instill fear in the citizenry that makes that citizenry easier to control.

That's what that is. That's what it's always been.

I mean, whether you're pointing at the Italian mafia as it came over to the United States in the late 1800's, early 1900's, it doesn't matter. It's the same. The motherfuckers at the Justice Department of the United States knew what was going on. It's not like they couldn't have done something about it, but didn't. Did they?

No, it's all bullshit. This is what I love about Bitcoin: the lies that Bitcoin makes plain today, all the way through history, and what people are talking about doing tomorrow. Now that I see it I will never be able to unfucking see it."

Wait, what's this AI transcribe thing? Is that new?

Well, in Highlighter.com it is but it leverages previously existing AI models.

It leverages DVMs. data-vending-machines.org

I expect a lot more DVMs to come to provide these services. Let's see how long that tail really is.

Pablo,

Can you check and see if your LN addy is getting zap splits from my note? I want to make sure nostrudel's prisms are working.

Yes, sir! I zapped the note when I saw it and received a split

one thing though, it's app to the client the user is zapping from whether the split works; zap splits don't use prisms so it depends on whether clients are keeping up with the NIP-57 zap split spec 😀

🙌

That's so cool. I'll try it when I get home.

That was amazing. I'm ready to see how deep this rabbit hole goes.

This is like Nick Szabo level stuff.
