Talks and videos — fiatjaf, Hodlbod, Pablo, Dilger
Status: pointers only. Videos can't be archived offline meaningfully here; the URLs are what's useful. If you want to grab transcripts, run them through yt-dlp + whisper, but that's outside this workspace's scope.

fiatjaf's YouTube presence
He is not a heavy YouTube poster; the design content is mostly in interviews
and panels (above) plus his blog (docs/sources/fiatjaf-vision.md). Don't
expect a polished channel — expect references on interviews + scattered talks.
Lifting transcripts (optional)
If you want grep-able transcripts on disk:
# in a sandbox, not in this repo
yt-dlp --write-auto-sub --skip-download --sub-format vtt 'https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F57UDu3YPYM'
# convert to plain text:
sed 's/<[^>]*>//g; s/^[0-9].*-->.*$//' *.vtt | awk 'NF' > cd122.txt
Don't commit transcripts here — they're fair-use research artifacts, not part of the workspace definition.
