I know this isn’t written as a typical obituary but I can’t imagine a better way to say goodbye and thank you a true scientist. The entire blog post is beautiful- not just the presentation but also the content and sentiment.

I agree. But now there is motivation for the CDNs to solve these problems in a clever way so that users can get better performance and lower latency.

The major criticism the author has is the requirement for HTTP2 push for ALHLS, which many CDNs don't support. While I agree it is a valid criticism, I am glad Apple is forcing the CDNs to support push. Without the 800lb gorilla pushin

At $793/KW, a 10KW system means no electric bill after 3 years. If the lifetime of the system is 20 years, that's at least 15 years of free electricity.

Not sure what I would recommend for non-technical people but if you are a bit tech savvy, rolling your own is very robust nowadays. Buy cameras that don't need to be setup using an app (I prefer DHCP/Ethernet with web console), bl

The Oculus iOS app connects to your headset and handles casting. Then you can just mirror the iPhone to Apple TV. Needs good wifi though or else it keeps disconnecting.

Played for 3 hours with my 60+ year old parents today. They absolutely loved Shadow Point and Beat Saber. For Shadow Point, I was wearing the headset, casting to my iPhone which was AirPlaying to Apple TV and they were following my every mo

I was wondering why they used EM instead of HF audio for positioning. Sub-nano must require expensive clocks and very tight tolerances. They need centimeter level precision not sub-mm. Maybe the speed of sound varies over 100m ranges? Why n

Oculus Quest is coming soon too. Unlike all other VR offerings, this one might actually breakthrough into the living rooms across the world because of the balance between performance and ease of use.

It's related to Purchasing Power Parity [1] and a good example of that is the Big Mac Index [2]. Basically, even if you adjust for exchange rate, the same amount of currency can buy 2 apples in one country and 4 in another. This should

Yeah, it's not by choice though. It can really mess people up if they're not aware of it. This NASA TED talk about time on Mars discusses how a different cycle can affect others too: https://www.ted.com/talks/
