Talking the Future of Tech
This episode is one of our book club episodes starring John Walpole, who wrote the Two But Rule, which is very tongue in cheek while also very serious about momentum thinking and using a negative bouncy discussion pattern.
I like to think of it as a bouncy discussion pattern to really explore ideas and drive ideation in a positive way by asking and challenging people’s ideas in a constructive way.

We revisit where we are with Crypto – more specifically where we are with distributed ledger technology or DLT. We give pertinent and real examples of places where the core technology behind Crypto is thriving and making a big difference, as well as has regained its value. We discuss the human impacts of that and what went wrong.

There’s a lot to the evolving world of web three, crypto, and distributed infrastructure blockchain, jump and distributed ledger.
That environment has changed dramatically in the last several weeks with the crypto winter followed by the ft x implosion. It has really changed people’s perception of the market, which is much broader than just crypto but yet they are very closely coupled.
In this podcast, we’re going to discuss what happened and what the ramifications are, why things like this do happen and how the industry around web three and smart contracts and various applications for this technology can or should pick up the pieces and continue.

Can we use DLT and cryptocurrencies for microtransactions? Today we break this down into component parts like what is a microtransaction? How does crypto help us? Does crypto help us?
In Cloud2030 discussions, we break things down. We explore how it helps, what it helps, what problems it does or doesn’t solve, and what problems does it create?
In this conversation we find some intriguing questions, and a few answers too towards the end. It’s a very enlightening conversation about microtransactions, DLT and crypto.

What is the intersection between augmented and virtual reality?
In today’s episode, we discuss changes in payment systems, Metaverse, NFTs and micro payments. All of which have to do with PCI and how we handle process payments.
We had a fascinating conversation about how all of these technologies intersect, and how one can drive another.

Rob’s Hot Take:
In the May 17th DevOps Lunch and Learn, Rob Hirschfeld discusses the use of Jenkins and other CI/CD pipeline tools in day two operations, emphasizing the missing discussions around operational requirements, tooling, and integrations in common day two patterns. The conversation reveals the tendency in operations to avoid discussing or sharing common practices, even when widely used, due to embarrassment or perception of it being the wrong approach. The episode explores how acknowledging and addressing these patterns is crucial for building effective day two operations, offering valuable insights for those interested in DevOps, infrastructure, and automation. Join the ongoing discussions at the2030.cloud to delve deeper into these critical topics.
Today’s episode is about Web3. By now hopefully you’ve heard of Web3, but… what is Web3 really!?!
That’s exactly what this conversation is about! We really talked about how Web3 is more than tech bros marketing Bitcoin. There actually are real legitimate business interests around Web3. Uses like breaking transaction log jams when a small number of providers are actually controlling and running the internet. Or looking at ways to decentralize infrastructure and remove bottlenecks within transactions flows.
You will be surprised at how much of the evolution of the Internet is captured in what Web3 could be.

Rob’s Hot Take:
In the February 10th episode of the Cloud 2030 Podcast, Rob Hirschfeld explores the concept of web3, initially skeptical but finding it to be a potential evolution of the Internet toward its decentralized roots. Acknowledging the current dominance of a few major players in shaping the Internet, web3 aims to reclaim control and decentralize influence. Hirschfeld emphasizes the importance of shifting the balance of power back to consumers, fostering discussions beyond cryptocurrency investments, and invites engagement at the2030.cloud to delve deeper into these transformative conversations.
