  Episode #191 – Why The Search Has To Be ExpensiveMay 11, 2026

  P versus NP is the unproven conjecture that finding solutions is genuinely harder than checking them. This episode argues the same cost asymmetry runs through every act of knowledge generation in the universe, from Einstein deriving E equals MC squared to a Bitcoin miner finding a valid nonce, and that Bitcoin is the cleanest engineered case humans have ever built.

• The Shape of Hard-to-VaryMay 11, 2026
  In a recent thread, David Deutsch affirmed a sharp claim: the gold standard genuinely depends on a lack of progress in physics. He is right.… Read more: The Shape of Hard-to-Vary

  Episode #190 – TimeMay 8, 2026

  Somewhere in the world a person has either lost their private keys or has chosen to take them to the grave, and a fixed quantity of Bitcoin will never move again. The surface answer is that the holder gave up purchasing power. This episode argues that what they actually gave up, in a strict physical sense, was time, and that the *chronometric identity* developed across the last several episodes lets us say that without metaphor.

  Episode #189 – Gabriel’s Horn: The Shape of EverythingApril 23, 2026
  In 1641, Evangelista Torricelli, a student of Galileo, rotated the curve y = 1/x around the horizontal axis and obtained a shape whose interior volume converges to π while its surface area diverges to infinity. Mathematicians of the day called the result an abomination. This episode argues that *Gab

  Episode #188 – The Exhaust PrincipleApril 22, 2026

  In 1973, Jacob Bekenstein showed that a black hole’s entropy is proportional to its surface area. The result has been treated as a paradox for fifty years. This episode proposes the resolution: a black hole has the most entropy because it is the biggest engine physics permits, and the second law is the receipt for every act of building since Genesis.

  Episode #187 – The Shannon TrapApril 20, 2026
  In 1948 Claude Shannon formalised information theory by excluding meaning from the math, a move that was correct for his engineering problem and costly once the field adopted his measure as the definition of information itself. This episode walks through the inversion and the proposed repair: K = Ic².
