On this extra special episode, the boys lay it all on the line in a daring new two part format to analyze the problems with community, content, and discovery (on social media, Reddit, etc.) and discuss how it may differ in the near future. Then, in part 2, the boys are joined by Finn Brown (~finnem-pilbes), founder of Vienna Hypertext, a "smart-canvas for ideas" that presents an innovative vision for community and social collaboration in the Network Age. This was a spectacular conversation that offers concrete alternatives to current forms of social media and provides hope for a world in which humans use computers as social and intellectual tool—rather than the reverse.Note: While ~bichul-ritsen is an idiot who used the wrong mic for part 1, stick around for part 2 where everyone sounds squeaky clean!Timestamps:0:00—Intro1:34—Challenges with content, community, and discovery6:08—What is the purpose of discovery?11:50—Is discovery meritocratic?17:52—Tension between consumer discovery and publisher broadcasting19:45—Discovery and Urbit24:47—PART 2: Finn Brown and Vienna Hypertext25:46—Finn's journey, the Western Canon, and Hypertexts at large34:41—Computer interface affects culture37:58—Discovery and Vienna Hypertext47:43—Human-powered connections on Vienna51:08—How texts work on Vienna57:48—Vienna Scribe (transcription app)1:07:29—Machine learning and AI1:13:12—Recap1:15:54—OutroConnect:~bichul-ritsen (@bichulR)~timluc-miptev (@basileSportif)~nilrun-mardux (@AlephDAO)Finn Brown (~finnem-pilbes / @viennahypertext)And, if you liked the episode, don't forget to give us a five star review.
