If you're interested in seeing a use case of the APIs, there was a really cool talk at Demuxed last year where some folks built a compositor using this plus canvas[0] [0] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zvsF6ZTYl0Y

nebula[0] may be interesting; you can allow list connectivity for specific groups, all burned into the cert used to join the network. It uses some NAT hole punching orchestration to accomplish connectivity between hosts without opening port

That's such a different approach than I've grown used to, but different platforms encourage different flows. I've been using bitbucket (not the shiny nice new bitbucket) at work for years and its PR search is so abysmally bad

Honestly, RTMP is a workhorse that powers most live video ingest today; its not bad, its just mostly frozen in time. Some issues that came immediately to mind are: - It was developed to support flash; if anyone is sending metadata about the

The current state of media ingest protocols is actually getting interesting. For quite some time its been a situation of 'everyone supports RTMP so you support RTMP' plus 'vendor X does not support $FANCY_NEW_PROTOCOL but the

I would be surprised and saddened if `?` as described in the blog was added to go. Error wrapping is critical for operating a service and staying sane; an operator encouraging `if err != nil { return nil, err }` is a step backwards. Conside

Heads up for anyone reading this on chrome, the examples may not render with a `Cannot read property '_gl' of null` exception; firefox worked fine when I tried it.

If you want to avoid the 'this chrome extension has been sold to a malicious actor' fiasco that hit me with the Great Suspender yesterday, you can load this as an unpacked extension. Grab the zip from github, unzip it, and point c

Aye, this is the 'Cryptograph Doom Principle'[0]. To very lossily summarize: always authenticate before looking at the message. Its a handy rule of thumb when you're making choices like how to validate a message. https:/

This labels itself small but, honestly, it feels too small. Why would I introduce a dependency that I can implement in 5 minutes from first principles? The entire implementation essentially lives in atom.ts[0]. Its a class that has an array

If you want to do fun things with ffmpeg as a cli, most roads end at filter_complex[0]. You can get some truly impressive results at the cost of maintaining really intricate commands. There's also added value when onboarding a new team

I am curious how many people mock their SQL queries and how they decide to mock vs not mock at that level. From the perspective of the services I'm knee deep in at the moment, SQL feels like the wrong layer to mock at. Instead, when we

Most good rules always have an exception, Malazan[0] is a fun set of exceptions to these. If you're not familiar, Malazan is a series of high fantasy novels and they're quite good. Well, they're excellent apart from the first

Is the value proposition here the CSS performance benefits of shadow DOM without needing shadow DOM? If so, its surprising there's no direct comparison in the link. I could actually see this being pretty compelling for easy performance

Without looking at the code, it looks like its using a steering algorithm[0] to move a series of 'boids'(each individual stroke) along the path you define. A boid is controlled by a number of forces, as in the physics sense. By va

From diving in, it looks like the contract backing a smart wallet implementation had a vulnerability/bug/design flaw allowing an arbitrary actor to kill it[0]. It looks like these contracts are treated as a shared library so the c
