Walter Maffione, CEO and co-founder of KaleidoSwap, join me to explain how the project grew from an RGB Lightning DEX into a broader swap engine and LSP stack — Lightning as rails between Liquid, Arkade, Taproot Assets, Spark, and RGB — plus KaleidoSDK, desktop app, and browser Extension.We dig into web app and SDK integrations for merchants and unified-balance wallets, how HTLC atomicity works across layers, BOLT 12 multi-asset offers and Nostr discovery for competing providers, Bitcoin-only scope with Flashnet and Utexo bridges for external stables, and a product lineup of desktop app, browser extension, and dual SDKs.Walter also covers agentic payments via MCP plugins, self-sovereign local models with Tether's QVAC, fee ranges around 0.5–1%, and a one-to-three-month mainnet launch path for the extension, swap provider, and web app.Timestamp:00:00 — Intro: Walter & KaleidoSwap00:50 — From RGB to Multi-Layer Swaps02:14 — LSP Plus Swap Provider Stack03:42 — Merchants, Stables, Unified Balance05:38 — Why Swap UX Took Over Wallets06:42 — Liquidity Ops and Mainnet Path07:58 — AI Attacks After Boltz Shutdown10:23 — Defending Non-Custodial Swaps12:18 — How Atomic Swaps Actually Work13:36 — RGB, Liquid, Arkade, Spark 14:36 — Open Spec, BOLT 12, Nostr Discovery18:23 — Pay Anything via the SDK19:34 — Bitcoin Layers Only + Bridges22:05 — Desktop, Extension, Dual SDKs25:05 — UX That Adapts to the User26:32 — Agentic Payments and QVAC33:22 — MCP Plugins, Keep Your Own AI35:11 — Fees Around 0.5–1%35:57 — Launch Timeline: Next 1–3 Months37:05 — Find KaleidoSwap OnlineLinks: https://x.com/bit_walthttps://x.com/kaleidoswaphttps://docs.kaleidoswap.com/whats-kaleidoswap/introductionStephan Livera links:Follow me on X: @stephanliveraSubscribe to the podcastSubscribe to Substack

In this week's episode, Dave and Dharm are joined by Lionel Grosclaude, CEO of Fime, to explore what happens when artificial intelligence moves beyond helping us make decisions and starts making purchases and payments on our behalf. As AI agents become increasingly autonomous, a fundamental question emerges: how do we know they're actually doing what we asked them to do? Lionel explains why authentication alone may no longer be enough. Merchants and payment providers will need to understand whether an agent has permission to make a purchase, whether it has followed the user's mandate and whether it has behaved legally, securely and fairly along the way. The conversation explores the trust challenge this creates for consumers and merchants, from fraud and chargebacks to agents sharing information they shouldn't or operating outside the parameters set by their users. Lionel also introduces Fime's FACT solution, designed to verify agentic transactions and create an audit trail when something goes wrong. The discussion moves into stablecoins, micropayments and interoperability, exploring how new forms of digital money could fit into an increasingly AI-driven payments ecosystem. Lionel also shares a striking personal example of the risks already emerging from AI-enabled fraud, after fraudsters impersonated him on WhatsApp and used an AI-generated version of his voice during an attempted $150,000 fraud. Looking ahead, the conversation explores where agentic commerce could become part of everyday life, why humans may remain involved in more personal purchasing decisions, and how AI could accelerate innovation while creating an increasingly complex financial ecosystem. For anyone interested in AI, agentic commerce, payments, fraud, digital identity or the future of financial services, this episode offers a fascinating look at what needs to happen before we can safely allow AI agents to start spending our money.

The United States doesn’t have a comprehensive healthcare “system.” It has a patchwork of coverage options that come with heavy price tags and complicated processes. Consistent GOP attacks have made the entire framework untenable, and the results speak for themselves. Healthcare coverage is deteriorating rapidly under Trump and there’s no going back at this point. This might be the opening we need to finally have a real conversation about Medicare for All. But there’s going to be a lot of pain between now and then.

Recorded live at Shopware Partner Day in Austin, Texas on April 22, 2026.Mark Stanley is Shopware's chief product and technology officer, where he looks after all product development. He walks through what is landing this year. Shopware's own native PaaS has just gone GA, highly opinionated and driven from the command line. An intelligence suite is in progress, bringing AI into bulk editing, CMS content generation and store data insights. And Nexus, an orchestration system for connecting Shopware instances to each other and to third party systems, goes GA at Shopware Community Day in Cologne.His hot take is data sovereignty, and business model sovereignty with it. More SaaS providers want to hoover up as much data as they can get, which suits a merchant who wants one button to push. Merchants thinking further out want to keep control of where the business model lives and where the proprietary data sits. His advice is to work out what you would not want an LLM to be able to copy in two or three years, and protect that. The moats are changing.On partners, he sees the job shifting away from shipping features and toward delivering outcomes, with tokens becoming the unit of outcome usage. On AI, he is most interested in developer tooling, where the first 80 percent of a build can happen in 20 percent of the time while the last 20 percent stays human work. And he thinks a portion of shopping stays tactile, digitally or physically, the way asking Siri to play something is a different experience from browsing Spotify.On North America he calls it an underdog story. Shopware is the Linux to the Windows and the Android to the iOS, and the work is the ground game, the same way it was done in Europe fifteen years ago. Bring a case of beer, go on the road, get people to join the ride.Shopware Community Day runs June 10 in Cologne. Shoptoberfest runs September 14 and 15 in Nashville.Learn more about our at-event interviews at talk-commerce.com/events.

The rise, death, and return of in-store retail media as lived by Mike Hiatt.Around 2010, the in-store retail media screens inside Walmart's stores were bringing in more revenue than Walmart.com. By 2015 the network was gone. Mike Hiatt, Founder & President of Dynamic Retailing, built it. He came to Bentonville to take over Walmart TV, which at the time meant 27-inch screens bolted up in the rafters playing audio that fought with Walmart Radio and lost. He rebuilt it as the Smart Network: eye-level screens, category channels, and five media endcaps that sold out every time they went to market. At its peak it had the reach of a Super Bowl each week. It was a retail media network before the industry coined the phrase. Then it came apart. Marketing owned the network, merchants owned the space, and nobody had built a way to cut the merchants in. Walmart pulled it out around 2015. Ricardo Belmar and Casey Golden get Mike to walk through what really happened, why in-store retail media is working now when it stalled then, and what his book Timing the Desert says about being right too early. Ricardo spent that same era at Hughes delivering managed digital signage to retailers, so this one gets personal and specific fast.This is a story of what was, what could have been, and the lessons every retail media network leader today should learn from the original in-store media network.In This Episode, You'll Learn·       Why a retail media network inside Walmart's stores out-earned Walmart.com and still got deinstalled·       How the fight over trade funds, national ad dollars, and shopper marketing budgets stalled in-store retail media for a decade, and what Amazon did to end it·       Why DSIQ, an ex-Microsoft team out of Seattle, built an ad server for store screens before the industry had the term, and why the company never scaled past Walmart·       The difference between a salesperson and a business development person, and why sending the wrong one into a retailer kills the deal·       Mike's five A's of in-store content: accessible, appropriate, adaptable, attractive, assembled·       Why he argues for localization over personalization, and what it means to treat 2,000 stores as 2,000 super customers·       Who he thinks reaches the in-store retail media cereal moment first·       Why in-store retail media will never be as lucrative as online, and why every retail media network is heading there anywaySupport our sponsors.This Episode is Brought to You By RetailClub.From the founders of Shoptalk and Groceryshop, RetailClub AI Festival brings together 2,000 industry leaders from September 22 to 24 for three days fully outdoors in Huntington Beach focused entirely on how AI is transforming retail.

Dentistry has become a target. From Hormozi-style marketers to practice brokers charging six figures for "scaling retreats," everyone suddenly wants a piece of the profession. In this episode, Dr. Peter Boulden, Dr. Craig Spodak, and Ian de Jongh unpack why dentists are easy prey, how to spot the warning signs of a predatory pitch, and why the same voices who screamed "sell now before the bubble pops" in 2023 are now selling solutions to the dentists who listened. They also dig into the rise of the zombie DSO: the 50 to 60 private equity backed groups that can no longer service their debt, can't recap, and never improved the practices they bought. What does this unwind mean for the doctors who rolled equity? And why does the market correction actually signal a powerful shift back toward independent ownership? Plus: why AI is becoming the great equalizer for the solo practitioner, the one moat DSOs still hold, and an open invitation to Brady Frank to come on the show and talk it out. If you've ever felt pressure to sell, this episode is your reminder: no one is coming to save you, and that's exactly why you're in a stronger position than you think.

When the first shots of the American Revolution echoed across the colonies, thousands cheered for liberty—but only a handful were willing to risk everything for it. Not Sunshine Patriots plunges you into the raw, unfiltered struggle of ordinary people thrust into extraordinary circumstances: farmers, merchants, immigrants, and boys barely old enough to shave. Each must choose between the safety of home and the call of country as war closes in around them.As the British tighten their grip and the price of rebellion soars, these unlikely patriots face betrayal, starvation, brutal winters, and the harrowing truth that freedom may cost them everything. Some will rise. Some will fall. None will remain unchanged.Meticulously researched and rich with vivid historical detail, this book reveals the real Revolution not the polished legends, but the grit, fear, courage, and sacrifice that forged a nation. If you think you know the story of America's fight for independence, think again. The true battle was fought in the hearts of those who refused to give up. https://www.amazon.com/stores/Terry-Allen-Helm/author/B0GX6J3632?ref=ap_rdr&shoppingPortalEnabled=truehttp://www.yourlotandparcel.orgSupport the show

Everyone in fraud and risk is building AI agents. Almost nobody is asking the harder question: if every team has access to the same models, what's left that's actually yours?   In this episode of Fraudboxer, Jordan sits down with Richard Meng, founder and CEO of Roe AI (YC-backed, San Mateo), and Tal, an 18-year risk leader who has built and scaled programs across fintech, payments, lending, issuing, marketplaces, and merchant environments. Together they make the case that AI itself is becoming a commodity — and that the real competitive advantage is structured risk knowledge: the fraud typologies, investigation frameworks, and institutional expertise that live in your team's heads, in Jira tickets, and in Slack threads where no agent can reach them.   The conversation covers why single signals like velocity, device mismatch, and risky IP no longer mean what they used to; why fraud teams stay permanently reactive; what happens to entry-level analyst roles as AI absorbs L1 work — and what new roles replace them; whether rules and machine learning models are dying or just getting a makeover; and why the sub-300ms reality of real-time fraud decisioning means an LLM is never going to be the thing that blocks a transaction.   They also get into the idea of an open, industry-wide fraud typology map — a shared taxonomy of attack patterns and recommended investigations that any team's AI agents could consume. Not a data consortium, not PII sharing, and not the kind of closed, invite-only working group that leaves newer practitioners out in the cold. Whether that can actually get built is the open question of the episode.   If you work in fraud, risk, compliance, AML, trust and safety, or payments — or you manage a team that does — this one reframes what "using AI" actually means. As Jordan puts it: most people say they use AI, but they're reading AI, not using it. The fraudsters figured out the difference a while ago.   WHAT'S COVERED   Why AI models are becoming a commodity, and contextual intelligence is the real moat Fraud typologies - ATO, ACH fraud, friendly fraud, push payment fraud, triangulation schemes, return abuse, promo abuse - and why each needs its own investigation path The medicine analogy - why the diagnostic framework beats raw intelligence Velocity, device mismatch, and risky IP - signals that no longer mean fraud on their own What happens to L1 analyst roles, and the new jobs that get created instead Are rules dead? A story from inside Uber's rules engine and the Grafana dashboard that showed fraudsters reverse-engineering rules in real time Why sub-300ms decisioning means rules and ML models aren't going anywhere Rule performance monitoring - the thing almost nobody actually does How Roe AI is building a shared financial crime knowledge base, and whether it should be an open standard Where fraudsters are already outpacing defenders on AI adoption   LINKS   Roe AI: ⁠https://www.roe-ai.com⁠ Roe AI careers (they're hiring, including SMEs): ⁠https://www.roe-ai.com/careers⁠ Richard Meng on LinkedIn: ⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/berkeleymeng/⁠ Tal Yeshanov on LinkedIn: ⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/talyeshanov/⁠ WhoBilled.me: ⁠https://whobilled.me⁠   This episode is brought to you by ⁠WhoBilled.me⁠.

Betty J. Kovács, PhD, taught symbolic/mythic language for twenty-five years. She has served as Chair of the Board of Directors of the Jung Society of Claremont, California, and sits on the Academic Advisory Board of Forever Family Foundation. Dr. Kovács is author of Merchants of Light: The Consciousness That Is Changing the World, winner of The Scientific and Medical Network 2019 Book Prize and a Nautilus Silver Award. She has also written The Miracle of Death: There Is Nothing But Life. Her website is www.kamlak.com. Here she explains that consciousness is infinite and that, ultimately, there is no real separation between our waking consciousness, our subconscious mind, and the afterlife. It is all one. However, that realization is difficult to maintain in the face of daily life's necessities. She describes several powerful examples of both archetypal, visionary experiences and after-death communications. They blend into each other. She closes with a riveting prophetic vision. New Thinking Allowed host, Jeffrey Mishlove, PhD, is author of The Roots of Consciousness, Psi Development Systems, and The PK Man. Between 1986 and 2002 he hosted and co-produced the original Thinking Allowed public television series. He is the recipient of the only doctoral diploma in "Parapsychology" ever awarded by an accredited university (University of California, Berkeley, 1980). He is also the Grand Prize winner of the 2021 Bigelow Institute essay competition regarding the best evidence for survival of human consciousness after permanent bodily death.

Most farmers spend countless hours trying to grow another five bushels per acre. Mike Rolfsen and Jeff Kazin believe there may be an even bigger opportunity waiting after harvest. The Agris Academy co-founders return to Farm4Profit to explain why merchandising—not market prediction—is where many producers leave money on the table. Drawing on decades of experience trading commodities and managing physical grain businesses at Cargill, they explain how successful grain companies approach risk, logistics, negotiations, and marketing far differently than most farms. One of the biggest themes throughout the conversation is that grain marketing isn't about predicting prices—it's about managing risk. Mike and Jeff explain why commercial grain companies hedge rather than speculate, and why farmers should think more like professional risk managers than market forecasters. Instead of trying to outguess the futures market, producers should focus on the controllable parts of merchandising that consistently add value year after year. The discussion also explores what life inside one of the world's largest grain companies actually looks like. While many people imagine traders constantly buying and selling futures contracts, Mike and Jeff explain that most of their time was spent optimizing logistics, transportation, physical grain movement, basis opportunities, and operational details that collectively create significant value. They then introduce Agris Academy, the education platform they founded to teach farmers the merchandising skills they believe are missing from traditional agricultural education. Unlike brokerage firms or advisory services, Agris Academy focuses entirely on helping producers understand grain marketing mechanics, negotiation strategies, basis, carry, storage economics, and risk management principles that can be applied to any farming operation. Throughout the episode they discuss: Why hedging should never be confused with speculation. The psychology behind futures markets. How margin calls actually work. Why documenting marketing decisions improves long-term discipline. Why every farm's marketing plan should match its own financial situation instead of following someone else's advice. One of the biggest takeaways is their concept of creating a "knowledge asset." While farms continually invest in land, machinery, and buildings, Mike and Jeff argue that merchandising education creates an asset that can benefit multiple generations. Once the skills are learned, they become part of the operation's long-term competitive advantage and can be passed down just like any physical asset. The conversation also dives into one of agriculture's biggest capital decisions: grain storage. Mike and Jeff explain why the economics of permanent grain bins have changed dramatically, why many large farms are now using grain bags as flexible storage, and how understanding carry, basis, and storage costs often matters more than simply adding more bins. They also discuss treating on-farm storage like a commercial elevator instead of simply holding grain until later in the year. Another important topic is cost of production. While understanding production costs remains critical for managing the farm business, Mike and Jeff explain why the futures market doesn't care what any individual producer's breakeven happens to be. Instead, successful marketers focus on managing risk, understanding merchandising opportunities, and maximizing basis and carry opportunities available in their local markets. The episode also covers: Negotiation strategies farmers can immediately apply. Why every marketing plan should be documented. Learning to think like an elevator. Separating farm performance from speculative trading. Why women often excel at grain merchandising. Building marketing confidence through repetition and small steps instead of large speculative bets. To wrap things up, Mike and Jeff share several entertaining stories from their international trading careers—including stolen vegetable oil, disappearing sugar shipments, homemade liquor in Eastern Europe, and why, after working around the globe, they still believe the United States remains one of the best places in the world to farm. If you've ever wondered how professional grain merchandisers think—or how to make more money without growing more bushels—this episode delivers practical insights you can begin applying immediately.

This episode featured a conversation with Ramnarayan Rawat, K. Satyanarayana, and Sanal Mohan, three scholars in the burgeoning field of Dalit Studies. We began with the significance of the 1990s as a point of departure for new work in this field and segued to the interventions made by their two edited volumes published in 2016 and 2025. We discussed the paths opened up by earlier radical historiographical paradigms, such as Subaltern Studies, which nonetheless failed to address the caste question. The guests noted three key emphases of contemporary Dalit Studies: one, centering Dalit historical agency and intellectual production; two, decentering the binary of colonialism and nationalism, and illuminating the colonial period as a complex terrain of maneuver; and three, foregrounding the importance of “the Dalit social” as a field of variegated power irreducible to the state. We ended with a discussion of the heterogeneity of Dalit sociopolitical formations, what makes “Dalit” cohere as a category, and future directions for the field of Dalit Studies.

Shopify's Q2 makes the SaaS apocalypse thesis hard to defend. Revenue grew 34% to $3.5 billion on GMV of $115 billion, up 32%, with gross profit up 31% and free cash flow up 55%. Operating expense keeps falling as a share of revenue, which is exactly what analysts reward, and also what happens when a company spends a couple of years cutting headcount.Rick and Jessica work through what's actually moving those numbers. Merchant solutions grew 37% and now accounts for 78% of total revenue, while the subscription line isn't growing anywhere close to GMV. Sales and marketing spend grew 20% against 32% GMV growth, and R&D grew 13% even with the AI investment story running at full volume, which is the ratio that keeps analysts quiet. Read that revenue mix honestly and Shopify looks like a payments and lending business that happens to sell software.That's the setup for the Stripe question. Merchants process on Stripe, but their relationship is with Shopify, so if Shopify ever swaps processors, Stripe is the one holding the bag. Meanwhile the Shop brand creeps forward another notch every year, from a checkout button to a consumer login to its own installment product. Identity is the wedge into a consumer internet strategy that has very little to do with helping merchants sell more socks.Analysts wanted to know whether Shopify will sell AI as a separate line item, and Harley Finkelstein has one answer he'll give you 27 different ways. Shopify is the layer underneath every agentic surface, so GMV has to flow through it and the register rings on the way past. The risk buried in that plan is an agentic front end that becomes the wallet itself and routes around Shopify entirely, which stops being hypothetical when PayPal is in play and Stripe is circling. Whether Shopify would ever make a run at PayPal depends on how cheap it gets, and on whether Harley decides he needs a wallet of his own before somebody else builds one.Also in this episode, why Sidekick's real moat is context rather than model quality, what happens to app developers who don't hand their data over, and transaction and loan losses running at $141 million against $80 million.The Watson Weekly Weekend episode by Avalara.

https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/tmb-ehv/03-0803db.mp3 Listen to Bible reading Through My Bible Yr 03 – August 03 Amos 8:4 – 9:15 Amos 8 Fraud and Hypocrisy on Holy Days 4 Listen to this, you who trample on the needy         to wipe out the oppressed from the land, 5 who say, “When will the New Moon be over so that we can sell grain?     When will the Sabbath end so that we can open the grain bins?     Then we will make the bushel [1] smaller and make the shekel weight heavier. [2]     We will cheat with dishonest scales. 6 We will buy the poor for silver     and the needy for a pair of sandals.     We will sell the chaff with the grain.” A Famine of the Lord's Word 7 The Lord swears by the Pride of Jacob,     “I will never forget any of their deeds!” 8 Because of this, the land will shake,     and everyone living in it will mourn.     The whole land will rise up like the Nile.     It will surge and sink down again like the Nile of Egypt. 9 Here is what will happen on that day, declares the Lord God:     I will make the sun set at noon,     and I will bring darkness on the earth when it should be light. 10 I will turn your festivals into mourning     and all of your songs into a lamentation.     I will put sackcloth on all your waists     and baldness on every head.     I will make that day like the mourning for an only son,     and it will end like a bitter day. 11 Look, the days are coming, declares the Lord God,     when I will send a famine into the land—     not a famine of bread     nor a thirst for water,     but rather a famine of hearing the words of the Lord. 12 People will stumble from sea to sea     and from north to east.     They will roam back and forth seeking the word of the Lord,     but they will not find it. 13 On that day the beautiful virgins will faint,     and the young men will grow weak from thirst. 14 Those who swear by the shameful guilt [3] of Samaria,     those who say, “As your god lives, Dan,”     or, “The way of Beersheba lives”—     they will fall, and they will never rise again. The Fifth Vision: The Lord Topples the Temple Amos 9 1 I saw the Lord standing by the altar, and he said:     Strike the capitals on top of the pillars so that the thresholds shake.     Cut them off so that they fall on the heads of all the people,     and those who survive I will kill with the sword.     No one who flees from there will get away,     and not a single fugitive from among them will escape. 2 Even if they dig down to hell, [4]     from there my hand will seize them.     And even if they ascend to heaven,     from there I will bring them down. 3 Even if they hide themselves on the top of Mount Carmel,     from there I will search for them, and I will seize them.     Even if they hide themselves from my sight at the bottom of the sea,     from there I will command the serpent, and it will bite them. 4 Even if they go into captivity in the presence of their enemies,     from there I will command the sword, and it will kill them.     And I will set my eye upon them for disaster and not for good. The Lord Shakes the Earth 5 The Lord God of Armies is the one who touches the earth, so that it melts.     All who dwell on it mourn.     All of it rises like the Nile,     and like the Nile of Egypt it sinks down again. 6 He is the one who builds his upper chambers in heaven.     He set the foundation for his vault upon the earth.     He is the one who summons the waters of the sea     and pours them out over the face of the earth—     the Lord is his name. The Final Judgment 7 Are you not like Cushites [5] to me, you children of Israel?     declares the Lord.     Did I not bring Israel up from the land of Egypt     and the Philistines from Caphtor [6]     and the Arameans from Kir? [7] 8 Look, the eyes of the Lord God are on the sinful kingdom,     and I will destroy it from the face of the earth.     But I will never completely destroy the house of Jacob,     declares the Lord. 9 Listen! I am giving a command,     and among all the nations I will shake the house of Israel         as the contents of a sieve are shaken,     and not even one pebble [8] will fall out to the ground. [9] 10 By a sword, all the sinners among my people will die,     those who are saying, “Disaster will not overtake us. It will not confront us.” The Restoration of David's Fallen Shelter 11 In that day I will raise up the fallen shelter of David. I will repair the broken parts of its walls, and I will raise up its ruins. I will rebuild it as in days of old, 12 so that they will possess what remains of Edom, that is, all the nations who are called by my name, declares the Lord, who is doing this. 13 Look, days are coming, declares the Lord, when the plowman will catch up with the reaper, and the one who tramples grapes will catch up with the one sowing the seed. The mountains will drip sweet wine, [10] and all the hills will wave with grain. [11] 14 I will restore the fortunes of my people Israel, and they will rebuild the desolate cities and dwell in them. They will plant vineyards and drink their wine, and they will make gardens and eat their fruit. 15 I will plant them in their soil, and they will never again be uprooted from the soil that I have given to them, says the Lord your God.

Amos 9:9 Or kernel of grain Amos 9:9 The people of Israel are being sorted through a sieve. It is not clear whether those kept in the sieve are the pebbles that cannot escape judgment or the grains that are being separated from the chaff, which will be burned.

In this episode, Elton dives into the number zero—the only digit that can both balance your checkbook and give a medieval bishop a panic attack. We explore how "nothing" went from being a terrifying demonic void to the "personal computing" revolution of the 13th century and, eventually, the literal foundation of our universe.GET THE BOOK: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠From Amazon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠From an Indie Book Seller⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠BECOME AN Elton Reads A Book A Week CONTRIBUTOR HERE:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Elton Reads A Book A Week Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Buy Me A Coffee!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SOCIAL MEDIA!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠This is the LINK TREE!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join the Discord server!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠EMAIL: ⁠⁠⁠eltonreadsabookaweek@gmail.com⁠⁠⁠The following section is reserved for the people, places, things, and more that Elton probably offended in this episode--THE APOLOGIES SECTION: People who carry dildos, toga people, Reader's Digest, buttholes, numbers, people with Indian names, mathematicians, and math in general.And f*ck racist people.A special thanks to Diedrich Bader and Jenna Fischer for all their inspiration.The Mud & Chickens DilemmaWhy medieval peasants couldn't have "zero" chickens if a wolf ate them.The Column CrisisHow Mesopotamians and Mayans used zero as a "punctuation mark" for calendars.Abacus AnxietyWhy physical counting boards kept math in the hands of the elite.Fibonacci's Trojan HorseSmuggling the Hindu-Arabic system into Europe via North Africa.The Devil's ButtholeWhy 13th-century priests thought zero was a demonic distraction.The Calculus WarsNewton, Leibniz, and the "ghosts of departed quantities".Quantum NothingnessThe "Cosmic Guitar String" and the Casimir Effect.Ancient civilizations like the Mesopotamians and Mayans used zero as a placeholder or punctuation mark, but didn't view it as a number with independent value.Merchants used the abacus as an "analog solution to a digital problem," where no beads touching the center beam signified zero.The shift to written zero democratized math, allowing ordinary merchants to perform calculations that previously required an elite class of abacus masters.The Hindu-Arabic system was treated like a "financial terrorist act" in medieval Europe.Florence officially banned Arabic numerals in 1299 because of fears that a scribe could easily turn a zero into a six or nine.Religious figures decried zero as "Satan's dirty butthole," leading bankers to keep two sets of books—one official (Roman numerals) and one functional (illegal decimals).Brahmagupta in 7th-century India was the first to give zero a "pulse," defining it as the result of subtracting a number from itself.The "Calculus War" between Newton and Leibniz centered on the use of infinitesimals, which Bishop George Berkeley mockingly called "ghosts of departed quantities".Quantum mechanics reveals that even in a vacuum, a "low, frantic hum" of energy exists, known as quantum fluctuations.Our Gregorian calendar jumps directly from 1 BC to 1 AD.Because medieval monks lacked a symbol for nothingness, there is a literal one-year phantom gap in human history.These...are...the tags!history of zero, mathematics history, Fibonacci, Brahmagupta, origin of zero, science podcast, mathematical void, history of numbers, Elton Reads A Book A Week, zero vs nothing, positional number systems, calculus origins, comedy, funny, infotainment, book, reading, bookstagram, book club, learning, listen, podcast, episode#HistoryOfZero #MathHistory #PodcastLife #SciencePodcast #Fibonacci #Nothingness #Zero #EducationalPodcast #TheDevilsButthole #MathFacts #comedy #devilsbutthole #funny #podcast #learning #reading #book #books #bookstagram #laughHighlights & InsightsThe Invention of NothingThe Cultural PanicThe Science of the VoidThe "Missing Year Zero" Glitch

Shopify shut off her Shopify Payments entirely — with less than 48 hours' notice before she'd lose the ability to take payments at all.They flagged her account as high risk, disabled her processing as of June 21, and held roughly $100,000 of her funds in reserve until October. Losing the reserve hurt — but it wasn't the emergency. The emergency was that she was about to have no way to get paid, period, with nothing set up to fall back on.In this video, I use this real business case to break down what actually happens when Shopify shuts you down — and exactly how we got her business back online in time.

Council will review the yearlong pilot before its license expires next July.

Join FPC Executive Director and CEO Reed Luhtanen as he goes off the rails with Callum Godwin, Chief Economist at CMSPI. Reed and Callum talk about why Callum believes now is the time for merchants to engage with faster payments in a serious way, how merchants can benefit from faster payments, and cricket.

Wayfaring: Photography in Taiwan, 1950s–1980s (Australian Centre on China in the World, 2025) explores four transformative decades of photography in Taiwan, tracing its evolution amid the island's emergence from Japanese colonialism and integration into Nationalist China, largely under martial law (1949–87). Through a dozen richly illustrated essays and interviews, the book bridges the gap between vigorous Chinese-language scholarship on photography in Taiwan and its limited representation in English. Essays on photographers in the 1950s–60s, including Long Chin-San (Lang Jingshan) (1892-1995), Deng Nan-Guang (1907-1971), Chang Chao-Tang (1943-2024), Liu An-Ming (1928-2022), Hwang Pai-Chi (b. 1931), Hsu Yuan-Fu (1932-2018) and Tsai Hui-Feng (1928-2005), reveal photography's pivotal role in documenting ‘local' culture and shaping cultural identity, while challenging ideas of ‘amateur' and ‘realist' practices and recognising the importance of transnational connections. Meanwhile, essays on Hsu Jen-Shiu (b.1946), Lin Bo-Liang (b. 1952), Kao Chung-Li (b. 1958), Lien Hui-Ling (b. 1961) and Hou Tsung-Hui (b. 1960), along with interviews sharing the firsthand experiences of Liu Chen-Hsiang (b.1963), Lulu Shur-tzy Hou (1962-2023) and Yao Jui-Chung (b.1969), highlight the experience of photography in 1970s–80s Taiwan, as both witness and agent of social transformation, addressing issues such as environmental protection, mental health and gender politics, as well as being a crucial vehicle for the transdisciplinary nature of contemporary art, theatre, cinema and performance in Taiwan at that time. Chen Shuxia is a historian and curator of Chinese art. Her research concerns art collectives, diasporic artistic practice, and reciprocal relations between people and objects. Her most recent books include Wayfaring: Photography in Taiwan, 1950s–1980s (2025), Chinese Toggles: Culture in Miniature (2024) and A Home for Photography Learning: the Friday Salon, 1977-1980 (2024). Her most recent curated exhibitions include “Merchants of Haymarket: the Making of Sydney's Chinatown” (2026), “The trace is not a presence…” (2025), “Chinese Toggles: Culture in Miniature” (2024). Chen is the inaugural curator of the Chau Chak Wing Museum's China Gallery, and a Senior lecturer in the Master's degree programme in Curating and Cultural Leadership, at the University of New South Wales School of Art & Design. Olivier Krischer is a historian and curator of art from East Asia and the Asian Australian diaspora, whose research concerns modern and contemporary transcultural art, photography and intermedia practices. His curatorial projects include “Assembly” (2023), featuring eight Hong Kong-born artists, “Wayfaring: Photography in 1970s-80s Taiwan” (2021) and “Between: Picturing 1950-1960s Taiwan” (2016). His publications include John Young: The History Projects (2025), Zhang Peili: From Painting to Video (2019) and Asia through Art and Anthropology: Cultural Translation Across Borders (with F. Nakamura and M. Perkins, 2013). Krischer is currently a lecturer and program convenor for the Master's degree programe in Curating and Cultural Leadership, at the University of New South Wales School of Art & Design. Li-Ping Chen is a visiting scholar in the Department of East Asian Languages and Cultures at the University of Southern California. Her research interests include literary translingualism, diaspora, and nativism in Sinophone, inter-Asian, and transpacific contexts.

A “successful” card payment can still leave merchants waiting days to actually access their money, paying layers of fees along the way, and carrying fraud risk that never truly goes away. That gap between authorization and settlement is where cash flow gets squeezed, reconciliation gets messy, and margins get quietly taxed, especially as more commerce shifts to e-commerce and other card-not-present channels.We sit down with Marshall Greenwald, Founder and CEO of IoniaPay, to talk about changing the infrastructure behind merchant payments. Marshall walks us through how IoniaPay moves funds from a consumer's card to a merchant's bank account in real time, why that matters more than ever, and how collapsing a fragmented chain of 6 to 10 parties can reduce cost and complexity. He also explains the fraud angle: instead of relying on tools that “guess,” merchants want stronger certainty that a transaction is truly authorized by the cardholder.We also get practical about where this fits best right now. Marshall shares why iGaming, travel, and healthcare see outsized value, how instant settlement can unlock meaningful working capital that would otherwise sit in float, and how the company goes to market through a mix of direct enterprise relationships and a broad reseller network. From there, we zoom out to the future of payments: multi-channel commerce, orchestration, interoperability challenges across a massive US ecosystem, and the broader shift from top-layer UX innovation to foundational payment infrastructure.If you care about real-time payments, merchant cash flow, fraud prevention, and what “modern rails” should actually look like for everyday commerce, this conversation will give you a few sharp questions to bring back to your team.

Dear sir Philadelphia June 1. 1776 Your favours of May 14. and 22d. are now before me. The first I shewed to Mr. Morris, as soon as I received it. The last contains Intelligence, from Hallifax of the Streights to which our Enemies are reduced, which I was very glad to learn. I am very happy to learn from you and some other of my Friends that Boston is securely fortified; but still I cannot be fully satisfied untill I hear that every unfriendly Flagg is chased out of that Harbour. Cape Ann, I am sensible is a most important Post, and if the Enemy should possess themselves of it, they might distress the Trade of the Colony to a great Degree. For which Reason I am determined to do every Thing in my Power to get it fortified at the Continental Expence. I cant be confident that I shall succeed but it shall not be my Fault if I dont. I am very glad you gave me your Opinion of the Utility of that Harbour and of the Practicability of making it secure, because I was not enough acquainted with it before to speak with Precision about it. Your Observations upon the oppressive severity of the old Regulations of Trade in subjecting Ships and Cargoes to Confiscation for the Indiscretion of a Master or Mariner, and upon the Artifice and Corruption which was introduced respecting Hospital Money, are very just: But if you consider the Resolution of Congress, and that of Virginia of the 15th. of May, the Resolutions of the two Carolinas and Georgia, each of which Colonies, are instituting new Governments, under the Authority of the People; if you consider what is doing at New York, New Jersey, Pensilvania, and even in Maryland, which are all gradually forming themselves into order to follow the Colonies to the Northward and Southward, together with the Treaties with Hesse, Brunswick and Waldeck and the Answer to the Mayor &c. of London; I believe you will be convinced that there is little Probability 2of our ever again coming under the Yoke of British Regulations of Trade. The Cords which connected the two Countries are cutt asunder, and it will not be easy to splice them again, together. I agree with you, in sentiment, that there will be little Difficulty in Trading with France and Spain, a great deal in dealing with Portugal, and some with Holland. Yet by very good Intelligence I am convinced, that there are great Merchants in the United Provinces and even in Amsterdam, who will contract to supply you with any Thing you want, whether Merchandize or military Stores by the Way of Nieuport and Ostend, two Towns which are subject to the Empress of Austria, who has never taken any public Notice of the Dispute between Britain and Us, and has never prohibited her Subjects from supplying us with any Thing. There is a Gentleman, now in this City, a Native of it, and a very worthy Man who has been lately in those Towns as well as Amsterdam, who informs me that he had many Conversations there, with Merchants of figure, and that they assured him they should be glad to contract to furnish us with any Supplies, even upon Credit, for an Interest of four Per Cent.1 Other Intelligence to the same Purpose, with Additions of more Importance, has been sent here. But the Particulars may not be mentioned. Europe seems to be in a great Commotion; altho the Appearance of a perfect Calm is affected, I think this American Contest will light up a general War. What it will end in, God alone knows, to whose wise and righteous Providence I chearfully submit, and am with great Esteem and Respect for the Family, your Friend & servant.

Recorded live at Google Marketing Live 2026, Phillip and eCommerce reporter Nicole Silberstein sit down with Ashish Gupta, VP & GM of Merchant Shopping at Google, who is behind the foundational commerce infrastructure powering the Shopping Graph and Universal Commerce Protocol. Gupta breaks down the GML announcements: UCP's expansion beyond shopping into hotels and food delivery, the multi-item Universal Cart that spans Search, Gemini, YouTube, and Gmail, and why the future of agentic commerce still depends on merchants nailing the fundamentals. A Shopper for Every Shopper Key takeaways: UCP is expanding beyond shopping into hotel bookings and local food delivery, giving every shopper their own personal shopper. The Universal Cart lets shoppers buy multiple items at once across Google surfaces, streamlining the buying experience as shoppers venture from inspiration to discovery and comparison. Merchants remains the seller of record no matter where the transaction is completed, tackling industry concerns about disintermediation. Conversational attributes enrich product feeds so AI can match nuanced shopper intent. Winning in agentic commerce starts with the fundamentals: feeds, first-party data, and UCP readiness.

At Google I/O 2026, Phillip sits down with Suresh Ganapathy, Senior Director of Product Management for Consumer Shopping at Google, to unpack the day's announcements: Universal Commerce Protocol's expansion into new verticals, agentic payments arriving in Gemini Spark, and the debut of Universal Cart. We trace what these foundational pieces mean for how a billion daily shoppers, and the merchants serving them, will operate in an agent-mediated economy. Enter the Delegation Era Key Takeaways: Universal Cart maintains shopper state across Search, Gemini, YouTube, and Gmail. The cart works on your behalf: tracking prices, flagging restocks, and catching product incompatibilities. Agent Payments Protocol's (AP2) tamper-proof contracts make agent purchases verifiable and accountable to shopper intent. Merchants remain seller of record, preserving customer relationships inside agentic flows. Gemini Spark becomes Google's first consumer agent with purchasing authority this fall. Key Quotes: "We're laying the foundational building blocks of agentic commerce." — Suresh Ganapathi "People come to shop at Google over a billion times a day, and we want to make sure that we're delivering the best experience to them when they do." — Suresh Ganapathi "We want to make it really simple for shoppers to enjoy the fun parts of shopping and then delegate some of these more tedious aspects to agents." — Suresh Ganapathi "Spark is the agent. AP2 is the payments protocol. Universal Cart is the ability for consumers to have less friction." — Phillip Further Reading: More on Google's AI play: Insiders: Google Solidifies Its Place in the AI Race More on agent-mediated commerce: Member Brief: Agentic Commerce and the eCommerce Site's New Existential Crisis Our 2026 Predictions: The Age of Autonomy Learn more about Google I/O Google's Universal Cart Announcement Our Links: Check out Future Commerce on YouTube Check out Future Commerce Plus for exclusive content and save on merch and print Subscribe to Insiders and The Senses to read more about what we are witnessing in the commerce world Listen to our other episodes of Future Commerce Have any questions or comments about the show?

For thousands of years, before Europeans crossed the Atlantic or steamships crossed the seas, the Indian Ocean connected the known world. Merchants riding the monsoon winds carried spices, silk, gold, ivory, porcelain, and ideas between Africa, Arabia, India, Southeast Asia, and China.  Along these routes, religions spread, empires rose, and some of the world's richest trading cities emerged. It was a commercial system that shaped history long before the modern global economy existed.

- The Strait reopens, oil drops hard, and the blockade is framed as a clean strategic win that forces Iran to fold without a broader naval clash. - Trump moves to shut down further Israeli strikes in Lebanon, undercutting the claim that he is simply being dragged around by foreign interests.  - The focus snaps back home fast, where Republicans are blasted for helping extend protections for Haitian migrants despite voter anger over crime, welfare dependence, and open-border fallout. - The House is portrayed as squandering a rare window of unified Republican power, failing to deliver on election security, deportation priorities, and the basic promises that drove the last win. - Another far-left Democrat rises in New Jersey, while figures like Ilhan Omar and other urban progressives are used to argue that the radical wing is gaining ground just as the right starts sleepwalking toward the midterms.  Today's podcast is sponsored by : CHAPTER - If you're turning 65 or already on Medicare, call Chapter at 27-MEDICARE for the plan that suits you best.
