2:17:44 in with $777.66, a lovely donation amount. Thank you so much, Dame Kim. She says, ITM Adam, jingles, screw your freedom. Oh, that's interesting. We just had that one. Screw your freedom, little girl. Yay, my donation today for 77766 is so I can get my hands on one of the amazing challenge coins. What a beautiful way to remember a man that touched so many lives. Thank you for keeping this ship afloat in these trying seas. Thank you for your courage, Kim, Keeper of the Nutty Fluffers in Hubbard, Oregon. Screw your freedom. Wow! And Sir Grumpy Old Boomer and Dame Zelda of the Turtle Realm come in with $400.91.
2:18:25 That is the challenge coin amount, $388.83 plus fees. In remembrance of John missing his voice and wisdom, Sir Grumpy Old Boomer and Dame Zelda of the Turtle Realm. Jennifer Taylor will be getting a John Challenge coin, as will Jalal Williams. And Sir Andrew Walker will also be receiving a challenge coin. He's saying all hell's going to break loose, and you're going to need a JCD coin. The rotating cast of co-hosts has been fantastic, and I hope the format continues. No jingles, no karma. This donation should bring me to Baronet, Sir Andrew Walker, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. I'm sure it does. Todd Usnik, challenge coin donation. Congratulations to the Dvorak clan on the birth of their granddaughter.
2:19:06 May she be a blessing to all. Jason Summers, 491, the challenge coin plus fees. Thank you. Peter Boyle comes in with the exact amount, 388.83. Eric Kessler says, This is an amazing challenge coin. This also gets me knighted as Sir Eric Kessler. Thank you, Adam. Dvorak family and Noah Generation. I'm loving the guest hosts. That is pretty ancient. Did you see that? Thank you. Did you see that Horowitz wants to have us all on at the same time? I didn't see that. I had thought about that in the past. That would be a nightmare. Yeah, can I interject for a second? Because this show has gone off the rails. I'm reading a comment on
2:19:48 X from Dirk Stefan, who says, listening to Dana Brunetti and Adam Curry on the same podcast at the same time is like eating a cortisol sandwich with Sourpop Candy filling and red peppers cranked to 11 at quadruple speed. Just too much yelling, talking over each other, aggressively digging jokes at each other, arguing at 180 decibels while trying to get the comments in over three clips running in the background. I am shaking. Gummies. Gummies. Gummies help. Sir Eric Didarian, 388.83. Thank you for keeping the show going. Seeing this coin design is bringing back all the emotions from when I first heard the news.
2:20:28 Sir Paul Couture, a tip of my hat to you for a beautiful job. Yes, he designed the coin. Thank you, Sir Paul. Sir Walkman, Duke of Buckeye State, 388.83. The show must go on. We miss you, JCD. Sir Walkman, Duke of Buckeye State. Jonathan Batteus. Oh, yes, Jonathan sent me an email. Let me see. I put it in here. And, you know, he says, hey, it's kind of a long note, but it's kind of interesting. He was working on a program called the Clip Doctor. And it was because I was complaining about, and this is months ago, about the editing software that I had.
2:21:09 And that it's, you know, the one I use on Windows isn't available on Linux. And so he was building me really quite a kick-ass system. And I was beta testing it with him. I think we went through at least 10 or 11 different versions. And then simultaneously, I started teaching my robot how to clip. And I kind of stopped beta testing. You bailed. I did. And I feel bad about it. He has another piece of software that I installed, but I didn't quite understand what it did yet. So I'm going to go and revisit that. But he says, as a software engineer, it's hard hearing someone say, software is dead.
2:21:46 But if I was being, he's a developer. If I was being honest, I know you're right. At least software the way it exists now will be making software for agents to use instead of people. That's probably true. Good news for people like me who've dedicated their life to the craft. I don't think it's going to happen overnight. There are always those who don't have the money, the time, the inclination, or the technical chops to get exactly what they're looking for out of vibe coding. Here's the thing: Dana and I, we are not software developers, but man, we're getting a lot of it, a lot of stuff out of it. We just have time on our hands. It is a big time suck.
2:22:25 And I have thought about that. That if I didn't have the amount of time, but it's indicative of where it's going. We just, as I said earlier, we're on the bleeding edge. Everybody's listening who's like, oh, I don't have any idea what they're talking about. Or it's like me when I used to listen to people. people about DOS or something. I have no idea, but eventually DOS became Windows, and then that's where that was my gateway in. And, you know, back in the day, people were saying there's no evidence anybody wants to use a mouse. I mean, you know, there are people who just get it wrong. Case in point, in episode 1905, J Cal said he wants a podcasting app. You told him, just vibe code it. It's easy. He said, I don't have time for that. I just want to hire somebody who's really good to make one.
2:23:06 There will always be people like that. And for the people like that, I think we're entering into a golden era as an era when small niche applications that would never get made the old way can be crafted by people for people, not by organizations for consumers. Straight up. I agree with that. That's one of the reasons I worked making Clip Doctor with you, a piece of software which honestly began with an audience of one. You. I'm getting ready to launch my company, Nishnak Apps, N-I-C-H-E-K-N-A-C-K, Nichnack. I think the website's already up. He has some very cool spell that again. I want to check that out. Niche Nishnak, N-I-C-H-E. Let me make sure it's here. Nich.
2:23:48 N-N-K-N-N-C. Nichol. I think it's Nishnak.com. Let me see. No. Not a secured connection is what I got. No. No, this is for sale for $34.95. No, no, no. It's, I don't know. You know what? I don't know where it is. Hmm. Well, keep looking. I had it at some point. He'll set me straight, and I'll do it on a Sunday show. Anyway, Nichenak apps, specifically for those kinds of specialized apps that I actually use. And since I do, I figure maybe someone else would like that as well. I'm actually at the point now where I'm looking for beta testers.
2:24:31 So I'd love anyone who might have an interest in anything I'm working on go to, oh, nk.tools. nk.tools. Yes, nk. You found it with your robot, didn't you? No, I'd use Google. NK. So listen to what he has. He's got Pocket Nerd, Ledger Keep, Clip Doctor. There it is. Clip Doctor is a great program. I just don't need any Rabbit Trail. You know what? I got an idea to do with him. Okay, good. I'll give you his email. Jonathan Battez. I think that's how you pronounce it. Brother, thank you so much. And I'm sorry, I didn't mean to fall off the radar. It happens, though. And you know what? In your defense, I've had so many people send me things, and it's just like things just get outdated so fast.
2:25:13 And it's just like, yeah, that was a great idea. Your Curry Caster is going to be outdated in a couple of weeks. It outdated five minutes ago. What are you talking about? Hey, there's Commander Cody. There he is. Sir Doter, Cody Dowd, 38883. ITM legends. I'm planning on making a donation to complete my knighthood for this show for show 1919. My favorite number is 19. But you had to offer this super sweet challenge coin before that. Well, Friday is my birthday, so I figured adding a title and a coin to my collection would be the perfect gift. I'd like to be known as Sir Doter, Commodore and Protector of the Round Down, as a retired landing signals officer, affectionately known in carrier aviation as Paddles.
2:25:56 The round down is the rounded edge of the landing area, the LA, of the aircraft carrier. Our job was to make sure pilots didn't smack the round while trapping, trapping on the catching the rope. Anyways, I'd like to have Blantons and Bouden Boudin at the roundtable. If Dana received JCD's sword with the rest of the care package, Mimi sent to him, I'd like him to break that out for the ceremony in addition to your noble blade. I got to find it. You find it. I got it. Yeah, you find it. It'll be fine. It'll be fun. F-35, Karma, and prayers. Oh, he wants prayers as wear. That's all. Got you. That's your game. Prayers. Yes, I got prayers, karma.
2:26:39 Where did it go? Oh, I see what it is. Prayers. Yes, got it. Okay. Going to try and make the meetup in Fredericksburg next Saturday. Ooh, that'll be good. October 17th. That's right. Very respectfully, future Sir Doter, Commodore and Protector of the Round Down. You've got Karma. You've got prayers. Hey, and that's it. We have no associate executive producers for today, only executive producers. That is wild. That doesn't happen very often. Who wants that title? Well, then what we have to do then is we just have to say, congratulations.
