Building Web3 Products on Urbit with Nico Arqueros of dcSpark | The Urbit Series
Nico Arqueros is the CEO of dcSpark, a startup that's recently launched two products built on Urbit. We discuss their unique thesis that the future of Urbit apps is outside of Urbit, with Urbit ID as the universal identity layer for the multi-chain future.

We explore the 19th-century Lyceum movement, a decentralized public lecture circuit where some of America's greatest thinkers earned their livings. In some ways, the burgeoning world of rogue academics and independent creators today feels like the old lyceum network. But in other ways, it pales in comparison. What are the current impasses and what needs to be built to unleash another great lyceum movement?
We'll be joined by Trent Gillham, founder/CEO of the Holium company building a desktop application for communities on Urbit (Realm). https://holium.com/
This open Zoom call was for software devs, crypto devs, creators, and capital allocators interested in what we're doing. Find out about the next one by subscribing to the Other Life newsletter. https://otherlife.co

"In January 2019, YouTube announced that they will be cracking down on conspiracy theories by changing search results and suggested videos to reduce the spread of “borderline content”, that “comes close to — but doesn’t quite cross the line of — violating our Community Guidelines”. This includes suggestions to videos “promoting a phony miracle cure for a serious illness” or “making blatantly false claims about historic events like 9/11”, that could “misinform users in harmful ways”. This came after repeated criticism from the mainstream media that YouTube’s recommendation algorithm is an engine for far-right radicalization and fake news...
The only way to find out what YouTube’s conspiracy crackdown really means is to go straight to the data. By closely monitoring their recommendations, I hope to be able to piece together patterns about how they are influencing politics. Who are the real winners and losers of Youtube’s conspiracy crackdown?"
