# 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.

## Recommended viewing — design-relevant

## 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`](https://npub1d70emggs6jzun5lhvqnfqsd9reqmaarn2qjf6q3r02gryyl4v8sqjn44xe.nsite.lol/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:

```bash
# 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.
