Are you using hardware accelerated encoding on iOS?

by ex3ndr 11y ago
iOS always include hardware accelerated components for various tasks, for example voice, video encoding are super fast on iOS and super slow on high end androids. Androids traditionally doesn't have any hardware acceleration modules.

I don't see any complex NSTableView in GitUp, they definitely use something other. When i worked at Telegram, we worked hard to make default lists smooth and it is almost impossible. Eventually main client became Qt-based instead of na

To be honest, html-based scroll lists are usually much faster than native one. Reason: Very obsolete UI framework for Mac.

Some questions: 1) Why you think that java is slower than C++? Server-side JIT compiles much more optimized code as it is really know what and how to optimize. 2) What about security? Almost half of the problems in security in last days cam

20k/sec is a joke performance. Java/Scala with Akka handles millions of packages per sec and this is performance.

Yes, i read it. But i am not talking about browser. What about IoT? What about mobile? Running python in mobile? No one will do this as it is just non-professional for majority of mobile devs. Some niche mobile apps on python is cool, but y

They are our friends and i continuously asking them to make open standard instead of implementing everything on python and python database and make it work with psql or cassandra. I hope they will release something for this as we are wish t

Sad thing is that skype for business/lync is bundled with office products and when we came to some big enterprises they say "we have free lync!". Insane.

Good Point.RSA security depends mostly on how you build your private keys and ECC security depends on what parameters and what curve was chosen. Russians cryptoexperts doesn't fully trust DJB they found that at the last iteration of pi

I always was curious about about one thing with DJB. Even DJB must to admire that focusing almost everything in modern crypto world around DJB is not _secure_. Curve25519 became default in OpenSSH, used in Signal in Axolotl Ratchet (and our

I have have a look after Ricochet it just uses Tor for clearing metadata. We had in the past prototypes with tor enabled messaging on mobile and it is not work as expected. Always too long to start on iOS (that can't execute in backgro

We need to distinguish XMPP as messaging for devices/servers or for people and so GCM is not an example of people friendly protocol. EA doesn't care about quality of their messaging. There are no one large scale messaging that is

Every major non-enterprise vendor abandoned it. Every company that i know and worked with XMPP completely rewrite it's stack .

We have asked for Signal's detailed protocol specs, but we was unable to get them for months from Signal's team. Also i suppose our implementation is slightly different and can be incompatible. Also it is seems that they abandoned

Thank you. We can easily implement new apps for new platforms during our architecture. Will see if someone will ask about this and will be ready to pay for this.

Yes, we need spend a lot of time to clarify everything. We are selling services around actor and enterprise solutions, yes.

Yes, we are always wondering how it is possible. But you need to understand that telegram rolled not only their own crypto, but their own DB, PHP compiler and so on. Everything is written in C++. To solve one of the earliest DDOS attacks te

We are much more powerful team for UX/performance. We build entire platform from scratch. Signal uses simplest existing technologies on top of only pubsub. We are just working very differently. Making correct multidevice/federatio

XMPP have a lot of problems: - Every server support different extensions. Extreemly fragmented. - No reliable file transfer - No reliable cross device sync - Almost all clients are junky - OTR and GPG are not the best crypto, but more trust

So nice to hear it: - We are completely open source under Apache License 2.0 - We are working on the federation. Unfortunately there are no production ready federation protocols at all. XMPP is dead. - We are work on multiple devices - We h
