From what I see, it is based on YouTube. I'm not too familiar with YouTube's ad rules but can Google pre-fix any video with an ad? If so, can someone else put their ad (via YouTube ads) before my Virool video ad?

If I understand it correctly, this is an EDI to JSON API? At 5c/call, it seems like one of the most expensive APIs out there but I'm guessing it does something that is very difficult to setup on your own. Reading the front-page, did not mak

What he should be saying is don't hire pompous pretend-to-know-it-alls. That is something all of us can agree with. But if you've spent the better part of the last two decades learning how to be a good developer and have applied your skills

Sorry, wasn't trying to trace the actual name. I knew Monier's name from some documentary I watched and was confused if it was you to met him or were you sharing someone else's century old anecdote.

I've never had poor cell phone reception change the frequency of the sound, only silence, choppiness, or complete garbage being inserted - all of which should be detectable via typical DSP algos.
