Zooko has been thinking about building decentralized Chaumian ecash since the mid 1990s. When Bitcoin came out, he was the first cypherpunk to write a blog post about it.

Custom surface artists Lisa Donohoe and Brynn Gelbard met and fell in love in the queer underbelly scene of San Francisco in 2002, a time before bi-national same-sex marriage was legal. Their diverse community was built on love, curiosity and celebrating each other's differences. In an evolution that was equal parts organic maturity and cosmic intervention, Brynn and Lisa moved to Los Angeles and founded Londubh Studio, specializing in elaborate and maximalist hand-applied surface designs. Now the duo, often considered the design world's secret weapon, are translating their wildness, love, magic, and the sacred, through exquisite artistry and pristine craft, into visual celebrations that vibrate with love and emanate joy.

User retention in crypto? Huge headache. The temptation for users to jump from one chain to another can be huge. With so many settlement layers available, it's a problem that's tough to solve for new chains.In today's episode, we meet with Rachin Kalakheti and dive into Twine's approach: one execution layer that settles to multiple chains simultaneously. Build once, then tap into users across Ethereum, Solana, and possibly Bitcoin or Celestia. Benefit? No need to to rebuild everything when users move on.No more complex wrappers, specialized app-chains or juggling between sequencers. It's a straightforward way to exist across ecosystems while keeping everything secure, in sync, and actually working together.We'll explore multi-settlement as a core concept, how it compares to alternatives like AggLayer or Superchain, and why it's important to look beyond Ethereum when we think about settlement.Let's jump in.

We're diving into how to find a decluttering method that actually works for YOU.This conversation goes way beyond home organization.

This episode is a burst of unbridled beauty to nudge us out of the winter torpor and into the spring light of March. We’ll reflect on the balance of graft and inspiration as we head to the Van Cleef & Arpels ‘Dance Reflections’ festival, discover Lebanese embroidery with the duo behind Bokja and explore the world of tarot as we embark on a journey with the cards through time.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode, I had a delightful conversation with Danielle Balanus, a Birmingham-based designer known for her bold, layered, and mixed aesthetic. Danielle's designs exude joy, abundance, and energy, adhering to the principles of the Slow Style philosophy. She emphasizes developing an aesthetic rather than adhering to strict style categories, focusing on creating evocative experiences rather than matching products. Danielle draws inspiration from varied sources like fashion and film and stresses the importance of playing with design elements and taking time to let styles unfold. We discussed several projects where she broke conventional design rules, such as rejecting the 60-30-10 color rule and using unusual combinations and scales. Danielle shared specific stories behind her projects, such as draping a whole bathroom to create a luxurious feel and using unexpected elements like antique mirrors and layered patterns. She highlighted a family room framed with dramatic portières and a moody, persimmon-accented bedroom designed for a show house. In her personal creative space, she showcased a blend of textures, colors, and collected items that reflect her unique style. This conversation is full of advice for those hesitant to embrace bold designs, encouraging you to trust your instincts and explore. Want to finally define your style?

This week on The Broski Report, Fearless Leader Brittany Broski discusses milk alternatives, hosts book club, and provides a crash course on Sherlock Holmes. 

In past episodes of Do You Really Know, we've talked about a number of Scandinavian lifestyle trends, like death cleaning and hygge for example. Both of those are inspired by similar sentiments; to do with feeling good in surroundings that aren't overflowing with useless items. And yet, in recent months, we've been hearing more and more about a home decor trend that's the complete opposite. Maximalism is making a comeback! The signs have been there at furniture shows, such as the 2022 Milan Furniture Fair where Dimore Studio displayed a maximalist interior that got a lot of attention. Of course, influencers have been sharing pictures and videos of their interiors on social media too. Where does this desire for maximalism come from? How can I bring maximalism into my home then?

Custom surface artists Lisa Donohoe and Brynn Gelbard met and fell in love in the queer underbelly scene of San Francisco in 2002, a time before bi-national same-sex marriage was legal. Their diverse community was built on love, curiosity and celebrating each other's differences. In an evolution that was equal parts organic maturity and cosmic intervention, Brynn and Lisa moved to Los Angeles and founded Londubh Studio, specializing in elaborate and maximalist hand-applied surface designs. Now the duo, oft considered the design world's secret weapon, are translating their wildness, love, magic, and the sacred, through exquisite artistry and pristine craft, into visual celebrations that vibrate with love and emanate joy. ***SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT: Clever is a finalist for the Signal Awards in the Curators Shaping Culture category!

Whitewashed walls and grey couches could soon be a thing of the past.Pink walls and green curtains are making a comeback. According to the experts, maximalism is back in fashion.Joining Seán to discuss this trend is Róisín Murphy, Architect and Artist.

In this episode of the Slow Style Home podcast, I talk with Abi Dare, author of 'The Soft Minimalist Home' and the 'These Four Walls' blog. We discuss her unique take on minimalism, which is not just about having fewer things but about making space for what truly matters. Abi explains that minimalism is an approach rather than a rigid style, and how her synesthesia influences her preference for a neutral and calm home environment. She highlights that minimalism can look different for everyone—whether it's a calm, neutral space or a vibrant room full of art. We also talk about practical examples from her book, which includes homes that are both colorful and minimalist. The conversation emphasizes the importance of creating a home that reflects your personality and supports your well-being. We also discuss why style matters and how decluttering and intentional design can lead to a more fulfilling home environment.

Your success as a writer boils down to your style. And today, you're going to learn how to master the two different types of style — minimalism vs. maximalism — from the style-king himself: The Cultural Tutor.  Minimalism is clear, concise, and direct. It distills an idea. Maximalism captures the texture, the nuance, the beauty of life. It creates an environment for your reader to inhabit. Style is a spectrum. And the sweet spot of memorable writing comes from the tension of competing forces — concision and beauty; Simplicity and texture; minimalism and maximalism.  If you want to develop a distinct and unforgettable style, then this episode is for you.

On this week's episode, the panel is first joined by Slate's music critic, Carl Wilson, to puzzle over The Tortured Poets Department, Taylor Swift's much-anticipated 11th studio album. Stuffed with 31 tracks, the two-part album is a departure from the billionaire pop star's otherwise perfectly crafted oeuvre: it's messy and drippy, and at times, manic and frenetic. Is this secretly a cry for help? And more importantly, when did she find the time to record this thing? Then, the three explore Fallout, a post-apocalyptic drama series adapted from the extremely popular role-playing video game of the same name. Executive produced by Jonathan Nolan (Westworld, Person of Interest) and streaming on Prime Video, Fallout certainly achieves a high level of immersive world-building, but do the stories and characters fare the same? Finally, Becca Rothfeld, the Washington Post's non-fiction book critic, joins to discuss her triumphant first book, All Things Are Too Small: Essays in Praise of Excess, in which she rebukes the culture's affinity for minimalism and makes the case for living in a maximalist world.  In the exclusive Slate Plus segment, it's part two of the Ambition versus Contentment discussion (courtesy of a listener question from Gretel): How should a parent approach cultivating ambition in a child, if at all? The hosts discuss.  Email us at culturefest@slate.com.  Outro music: "Ruins (Instrumental Version)" by Origo Endorsements: Dana: The Teacher's Lounge, a film by German-Turkish director Ilker Çatak.

New Sode; Normally you would think NFTs are highly aligned with my values; art, fraud, scam, vapid, a sort of ponzi scheme for those without an MBA who majored in Visual Art and minored in Fascist Dance Theory. Alas, you'd be wrong, but only because they are so ugly and art auctions without paddles are without a semblance of adrenaline and theatrics. Pass.  I've been saying since the Tony Blair Administration, that NFT NYC is the least relevant crypto society events, although not nearly as tragic as Tethered to Lake Cuomo. NFTs have always reeked of energy of those who missed the Solana boom and Uranium puts. I can just as easily screenshot a photo and post it on Instagram, hashtag Blockchain and NFT, print it out, Elmers glue some rainbow sprinkles, hang it next to my taxidermy and tell everyone it sold for 300k in a private sale in exchange for a gun and a few liquid AVAX gleaned from an underground subterfuge subnet. Normally, I would stay safely in the confines of my zero knowledge existence high on opiates and dydx perp trades, with a side order of shorting Hut8 with my housekeeper, but I made an exception. The Duchess Isabella Duke of the Upper East Side, a fellow OG glitterati Gossip Girl Pon de Replay with a hot bod and pseudo ivy league degree in Bitcoin Maximalism and Ordinals was in town. Her background is startling. She was the Head Communications of Ordinals turned Bitcoin Venture Capitalist of Art for Bitcoins. Ordinals. These are real NFT's, with serial numbers like prisoners ala Jean Valjean In Les Misérables #24601.  In my quest to discover what the fuck this industry actually does, as decentralized finance sounds like Communism with an impending Soviet invasion, I remain deeply skeptical of any financial system that is not Ronald Reagan's trickle down voo doo economics.I trust Isabel. I have known her since we used to chainsmoke outside of the Met in Grade 8 instead of Shakespeare class because that is also how Gwyneth won the Oscar for Shakespeare in Love. All the world's a stage Satoshi. I have watched her career transform from Diet Coach to the Stars to her journey into Satoshi's inner circle and cultivating real NFTs on Bitcoin. I relate to a manic pendulum of a career, except that I do not have one, but relate. As the General Partner of Unchained Fund, Isabel replete with her Armani business suit, and notable accolades, assured me that Bitcoin not crypto and Bitcoin with serialized art is very different than what I have been privy to. You see, serialed art on the scarce hard money asset like gold and oil that will bank the unbanked in its rarest and purest form like the blood of Jesus Christ , where it all started,  are actually really useful NFT's and they are harder and better.  Like a poorly trained KGB agent on the brink of defectation, I grill Isabelle on the culture of Bitcoin Maximalism and ultimately try to understand how to make Maximalism chic. Ultimately, Bitcoin maximalists are gun loving, both meat and vegan eating philosophic cowboys with deeply passionate views on sovereignty and freedom. I asked Isabel if she thought Blockchains should talk to each other, like schizophrenics and like a true fellow brilliant sophisticated deeply thoughtful worldly woman, thought perhaps. A brilliant sophisticated deeply thoughtful worldly woman, thought perhaps.  Maxi Culture is indeed chic with Isabel setting the tone. 

Unlock the secrets to financial sovereignty with Lisa Hough, a beacon in the realm of Bitcoin and personal empowerment. As a colleague of Caitlin Long at Custodia, Lisa brings her wealth of experience from the trenches of energy trading and a firm belief in the revolutionary potential of self-custody. This episode is not just a journey through Lisa's impressive career from Unchained Capital to Salomon Brothers and Enron, but a masterclass in harnessing the volatility of the energy sector for financial independence. Her advocacy for energy maximalism is a clarion call for anyone yearning to break free from traditional financial constraints and make bold, confident decisions about their economic future.As the conversation steers towards the broader impact of Bitcoin, you'll be thrust into the heart of global economics and media narratives that shape the perception—and reality—of cryptocurrencies. We grapple with Bitcoin's role in reshaping global reserve currencies, the advent of AI in transactions, and the contentious debate surrounding Bitcoin ETFs and market behavior. Furthermore, the dialogue shifts to the vital inclusion of Bitcoin education within academic curricula, sharing personal vignettes and the triumphs of thought leaders who are paving the way for a financially literate generation. This episode is an essential listen for those intrigued by the intersection of finance, technology, and education, offering both an informative and provocative perspective on the future of money.The content in this program is for informational purposes only.

He acknowledges the need for introspection, highlighting the challenges faced by the Monero community, including negative interactions, gatekeeping tendencies, and a lack of recognition for individuals who contribute significantly to the project.

The talk concludes with a call to action for community members to actively contribute, welcome new ideas, recognize and appreciate contributors, and build connections beyond the typical Monero circles for the continued growth and success of the project.

Can you be a minimalist and a maximalist at the same time?In this episode, I talk about the concepts of minimalism and maximalism. I share my personal experience with decluttering and the conflicting emotions I feel as someone who loves collecting things but also craves simplicity. Throughout the episode, I challenge the traditional definitions of these two styles, exploring the possibility of being both a maximalist and a minimalist. I emphasize the importance of intentional curation and finding balance in one's home. Ultimately, I encourage listeners to define their own style and embrace a mindful approach to their belongings.
