Transcoding is done in the cloud when required (some containers & encoding formats don't require transcoding, some do). There's a 3 concurrent stream limit when the device needs transcoding, so that might put a hamper on your

If you're a former university student, check and see if your school has switched over to google apps for email. I recently realized I've had a free, unlimited google drive for a while now, just waiting to be used...

Can someone with Silicon Valley exp. please confirm or deny that "many" CEOs don't have basic understanding like what a balance sheet is? Because I can't tell whether this comment is comical or if Silicon Valley is comi

I've seen much bigger disasters during conference calls than someone having a kid with them. Usually from people paid a good deal of money.

The main underlying "evil" of censorship is that it obscures the truth and rallies people behind ideas that aren't accurate, ideas that also have some upside to another party. It's weaponized information essentially. Tha

Ever notice how nobody calls their API “RESTpure”? Instead they call it “RESTful” or “RESTish”. That’s because nobody can agree on what all the methods, payloads, and response codes really mean. These reasons have nothing to d

I'm not sure I've personally been able to figure out if it was sarcasm or willful ignorance, but yeah, this article annoyed the pants off me just as much as the first in the series. The fact that it's now worked twice to hit

How these people feel attacked from the left would be a very important question to ask, though. I mean, they're not walking into artisanal coffee shops and facing this every day. From Sam's account, they're living in commun

Why do people have to quote fake news like it's an invented problem? I guess there could be some disagreement on the scope of the problem, but there's inevitably a better-trained person in this world who will be researching and be

I think Microsoft has done a great job of transforming to being very brand-conscious and these stories are both a recognition of that from the press, and a bit of a self-fulfilling prophecy (they talk about how different they are, the press

You'd have to price in the cognitive load for engineering for that setup, and the recruiting costs / turnover costs for anyone that had to be exposed to the colo center. Also, the colo center! Speed & reliability are feature

If I can't get from the search engine to the source page, that's a degraded experience. If I can't copy-paste the url but there's some ridiculous browser-defined JS method for inserting whatever the site host says the l

For a certain definition of "nice", possibly. It's a little bit of a depressing thought that some future culture might find only our online comments and study our culture through that.

I've always asked teams why someone should come work there during the interview process. For one, a lot of employees are not terribly good actors, so you can read the room if you see people stammer through this question. Two, by even

If H1B salary restrictions are a big part of what you're doing as a small startup, there's probably more wrong than that. This move should be hitting large, established firms way, way harder

Not to diminish the Flint Michigan situation, as republicans did when they shuttered the investigative bodies that were looking into it. But how dafuq can the EPA be doing nothing if flint is the rare exception to the rule? If they are to

They probably just googled Murry Salby, found that they had quite the history of dodgy behavior, and moved on with their life. That's what I did at least, and I'm not gonna lose any sleep over it.
