    Office Hours 10: Banyan x Kinode

    This week, we speak with Claudia Richoux, the CEO of Banyan. Our conversation focuses on Banyan's innovative distributed file system, which aims to provide secure, affordable, and decentralized data storage solutions.

    Claudia explains the concept of a "data wallet" and outlines how Banyan's technology integrates with decentralized networks to improve data handling, security, and cost-effectiveness compared to traditional cloud services.

    Office Hours 9: zk-Rollups and the Chess App

    This week, we discuss how Kinode simplifies blockchain application development by abstracting away infrastructure setup, allowing developers to focus on core application logic. We highlight Goldfinger's zk-Rollup template and chess game as an example, noting how Kinode's architecture facilitates better UX and seamless composition of on-chain logic and off-chain interactions in a multi-rollup future.

    Office Hours 8: Barter, and LLM Negotiator App

    This week we discuss Barter, an LLM-powered NFT negotiator app built on Kinode. We discuss the app's functionality, creative "prompt hacking" possibilities, and broader implications. Barter allows users to set up a Telegram bot to automatically negotiate NFT sales based on customizable parameters. The discussion touches on the potential for AI to engage in financial transactions, the need for extensive testing around prompt injection risks, and the power of Kinode's permissionless and iterative development environment.

    Office Hours 7: Trent from Holium

    In this week's Kinode Office Hours, we're joined by Trent from Holium to discuss their new project MemeDeck, a platform for AI-powered meme generation and curation. The conversation explores the nuances of building decentralized applications, and how Kinode's modular architecture allows developers to choose which components should be centralized versus decentralized for optimal user experience and scalability. Trent shares insights into Meme Deck's architecture, which leverages Kinode for user data storage and identity while relying on centralized services for compute-intensive tasks like meme generation and search. The team also dives into Holium's vision for a decentralized AI infrastructure, where users can contribute their GPU power to train models and execute tasks, earning rewards in the process. Basile and Doria emphasize the importance of ergonomics and the "build another app" principle in designing developer-friendly systems that can compete with centralized platforms. Tune in for a fascinating discussion on the future of decentralized AI, the power of memes, and the role of Kinode in enabling a new wave of Web3 applications.

    Office Hours 6: Kinode release 0.6

    In this week's Kinode Office Hours, we dive into the philosophy and rationale behind Kinode's 0.6 release, a major milestone on the path to the highly-anticipated 1.0 version. We discuss the importance of achieving a stable, backwards-compatible API as early as possible in the development process. Drawing parallels to Ethereum's unwavering commitment to backwards compatibility, we highlight how this approach forces the team to build real applications from day one, ensuring that the system can actually support the intended use cases.

Pretty neat stuff

Most of the time I don’t have any idea what these guys are on about but they seem alright. Their names are weird but that’s my favorite part. I’ve listened to every episode and I’ll keep listening (for now).

The essential Urbit podcast

An essential podcast for anyone captivated by the future of technology and its influence on society. The hosts delve into an extensive range of subjects, including decentralized computing, historical trends, cryptocurrency, artificial intelligence, and the burgeoning "web3" landscape. Although the discussions venture into topics that might be on the fringe or cutting edge, they offer valuable insights into emerging trends that will soon become central to public discourse—and sooner than you might think. And the show frequently introduces a variety of niche and lesser-known guests who frankly deserve more attention and consideration.

Even if you don’t know what a rune or a ship is this is still a great podcast. Big recommend.

More than just Urbit

I recommend this podcast to anyone with even a passing interest in the future of technology. They interview a wide variety of guests, which keeps the show from repeating the same themes, and also gives different perspectives for those of us that aren't great at getting out of our narrative bubbles.

While the show is more generally tech focused, the hosts are heavily involved in the Urbit community, so if that’s your thing, you’ll get a healthy does of Urbit along the way too.
