What an ambitious and important project! I love the concept, and that it is meant to be a "long, slow project."

It probably should be paced slowly due to the scope and complexity of material. I think a slower pace should also help "smooth" the exponential change rate of technological progress into a narrative listeners can follow, without sacrificing too much detail for the sake of listenability.*

I'm going to sub right now.

*I listen to a lot of podcasts, and this happens more than it should, IMO.

Edit: I haven't seen a podcast with its own git repo before, but it makes a lot of sense, and I imagine it is immensely helpful as a creator. I took a quick glance to satisfy my curiosity, and the notes I looked at (show notes) were comprehensive and really well done. This is inspiring, no joke; I have renewed enthusiasm for my own podcast-to-be. Thank you for that!


It's a tough balance. I guess the right way to is to have UI metaphors that minimize extra controls from scratch (i.e. if you remove 'save as' find a way to remove files as a metaphor; you can just have automatic save, undo, and 'duplicate this'.)
