WEBVTT - Episode Zero: Welcome to TechStuff Daily

0:00:04.120 --> 0:00:07.360
<v Speaker 1>Hi, I'm Jonathan Strickland, and this is Tech Stuff Daily.

0:00:07.600 --> 0:00:09.559
<v Speaker 1>On this show, we'll take a look at the stories

0:00:09.600 --> 0:00:12.399
<v Speaker 1>behind some of the latest tech headlines to learn why

0:00:12.520 --> 0:00:15.520
<v Speaker 1>they're so important. We're not out to cover the news,

0:00:15.720 --> 0:00:19.400
<v Speaker 1>there are tons of other shows that do that already. Instead,

0:00:19.640 --> 0:00:23.079
<v Speaker 1>we'll dive into what makes those stories interesting. On Tech

0:00:23.120 --> 0:00:26.040
<v Speaker 1>Stuff Daily, we're going to learn about topics ranging from

0:00:26.040 --> 0:00:29.600
<v Speaker 1>the highly technical to the historical. It's my belief that

0:00:29.680 --> 0:00:33.800
<v Speaker 1>you can't really understand or appreciate any particular news story

0:00:33.920 --> 0:00:37.519
<v Speaker 1>without getting some context first. On Tech Stuff Daily we

0:00:37.640 --> 0:00:41.280
<v Speaker 1>seek out that context. So while we won't break any

0:00:41.320 --> 0:00:44.479
<v Speaker 1>stories on this show, we will look further into them

0:00:44.520 --> 0:00:47.440
<v Speaker 1>to understand what exactly is going on. Here are some

0:00:47.520 --> 0:00:51.600
<v Speaker 1>topics you can expect to hear on early episodes cryptocurrency

0:00:51.640 --> 0:00:55.640
<v Speaker 1>like bitcoin, including what makes it special, how does bitcoin work?

0:00:55.720 --> 0:00:58.680
<v Speaker 1>And is it really a currency like dollars or euros.

0:00:58.800 --> 0:01:02.560
<v Speaker 1>Another episode will look elon Musk's statement that the Boring company,

0:01:02.600 --> 0:01:06.720
<v Speaker 1>which operates enormous tunneling machines, received a verbal agreement from

0:01:06.720 --> 0:01:10.160
<v Speaker 1>White House representatives to build a tunnel system between Washington,

0:01:10.240 --> 0:01:12.759
<v Speaker 1>d C. And New York City. Is such a thing

0:01:12.760 --> 0:01:15.840
<v Speaker 1>practical and how would it work. We'll also look at

0:01:15.880 --> 0:01:20.120
<v Speaker 1>stories about Apple's support of augmented reality technology, the failure

0:01:20.160 --> 0:01:22.880
<v Speaker 1>of Equifax to create a reliable tool for people to

0:01:22.959 --> 0:01:25.720
<v Speaker 1>check if they are victims of an information hack, and

0:01:25.800 --> 0:01:29.000
<v Speaker 1>what Uber is doing after receiving a cold shoulder from

0:01:29.040 --> 0:01:32.320
<v Speaker 1>the City of London. In these and future tech stuff
