Hey, I've worked in streaming video for 10 years now, and I co-organise the biggest video streaming conference in the world. Here's my insights. If you want to build a video platform from scratch, your cost models are going to be

As JB said, this is a pretty poorly cut together video and article. We had JB on the Demuxed Podcast last year, and he told a lot of the early stories around VLC, it's much less edited than the version in this article. Here it is, with

TikTok is a strange one - It has some great content, but if you scroll through the home feed, you still stumble on pictures of kids dancing and lipsyncing in... inappropriate ways. I think this is a pretty limiting barrier to entry for a lo

Wow what a terrible website. The GDPR advertising opt-out: 1) Renders at the top of the page when the page is loaded, then because this link contains an anchor scrolls you to that anchor, while the entire screen is greyed out 2) Your behavi

Unrelated to the content, but the stock photos throughout this article felt completely needless to me. We're not 5 year olds, we don't need pictures unless they add to the content.

Anecdotally, 3M seem to suffer more than I'd expect from fake products flooding the market place. I've lost count of the number of reviews of products I've read which advertise "3M tape / adhesive" or alike, wh

Interesting, thanks for sharing! Some questions: Where is the data sourced from? Is there an offline DB? How often is the BD updated? How is reputation calculated?

It's interesting that no-one mentioned Formula 1 in here. F1 was one of the biggest industries to embrace tobacco advertising, and indeed was exempt from several tobacco advertising laws in the UK. The Ferrari F1 team still takes spons

Author here! We've been playing with representing our APIs using tools like Swagger for a while and finally built a toolchain around OpenAPI V3. It wasn't all smooth sailing though, the tools aren't perfect yet. Let me know i

I've always found the HFT space interesting, but don't really have any desire to move into the financial sector. How large are the payloads in general for HFT?

I disagree. I've seen P2P outperform traditional CDNs many times, take a look at some of the data from Peer5 I linked below around improving the user experience. P2P doesn't need "always on" boxes in large scale live str

Peer5 is actually a really interesting example of how the user experience can be improved using peer-to-peer, particularly in areas with less capable internet infrastructures - their technology _only_ kicks in if the user experience can be

Great point! The BBC actually did some really interesting work last year on using MPEG-DASH with Multicast with a demo at IBC, the research can be found here: https://www.bbc.co.uk/rd/projects/dynamic-adaptive-stre

As far as I'm aware there aren't any public CDNs that support the sub-200ms approaches which don't involve buying a full solution from that vendor. * Limelight's solution is only really accessible through their low laten

My gut instinct is there's both technical and business reasons. From a technical perspective, traditional CDNs are struggling to grasp what it means to be a CDN in the peer-to-peer space, their networks have been built to support tradi

Hey, your website seems to be down and there isn't really any documentation on your project - what sort of codecs, packaging and delivery formats will you be supporting? Thanks!

That's not really innovative - other CDNs are already doing the fast first few segments and then slower/cheaper CDN once the buffer is built up. Hola CDN for example. https://holacdn.com/multicdn Dynamic Manifest

Looks like this is a Bitmovin resell - Player is Bitmovin and the DASH manifests are clearly created by them too. Storage appears to be Google Cloud storage with Cloudflare's CDN tacked on in front. Doesn't look like any radical i
