Hi HN! Joe and Paul here to share PBJ Live. We're releasing an SDK which adds end-to-end live streaming capabilities to any app or website in minutes.

Once the SDK is installed, PBJ Live allows you to create, manage and schedule live broadcasts, categorize past streams or recorded content (coming soon), issue permissions to streamers and even simulcast (soon) to other platforms all through your pbj.live account. To avoid hardware and RTMP headaches, we've paired the platform with a live stream app for a convenient way to broadcast.

About us: We're two of the three founders behind PBJ Studio, a product studio formed by a close group who have worked together for 6+ years. Outside of client work, we build our own products, the first of which is PBJ Live.

PBJ Live is the result of our painfully repetitive experience building a half dozen custom live stream products for clients. We found there were quite a few common features, outside of the actual stream provider (thanks, Mux!), we needed to build to support streaming. Once COVID hit, we had an increase in requests for custom live stream solutions. Initially, we built the platform and paired it with iOS, Web and Android apps which we'd customize. Today, we're releasing our Live SDK so anyone can easily add live streaming to their own apps and take advantage of the Live platform.

While you can use any RTMP client (obs, etc) we found our customers were constantly messing with settings, struggling with hardware requirements or internet connectivity, and mixing up stream keys. Many attempting to stream are easily overwhelmed by this, so we built an RTMP Broadcast App (iOS) which allows a streamer to log into their provisioned account and stream to whichever destination(s) they've been granted access, all from their phone.

We have some influencers, brands and fitness chains actively using our white label Web, iOS and Android clients, but exposing the functionality via an SDK made a lot of sense.

*Note - the SDK is early, please be gentle*

While we work on exposing additional platform features to the SDK (VoD, simulcasting, live shopping), we would love your feedback. HN is a frequent destination for us, we're excited to share our progress. Feel free to drop us a line by emailing hello@pbj.live.

What gets me is they don't honour whitelisting email addresses when their reasons for blocking can be really spurious.
When you know CompanyA fires a bunch of people, the price goes up because of the perception that the company will have more capital to leverage. Knowing that an event has happened or expect the consequence of an event (CompanyA gets sued for patent violation) to have an effect on the company, changes the stock price through participation. GME is an interesting case where the event is perceived to be a complex situation with an outcome that is believed to be good for participants, increasing participation and driving the price up. I don't see how it's special, other than someone with a lot of money made a plan that motivated participants to believe in that plan, then play against it.
To me, "master" and "slave" are historic terms used throughout electrical, software, even entertainment industries.

Eliminating words from a vocabulary is very 1984-like. Those words have a deep historical meaning, allowing ourselves to just "remove them" is akin to forgetting and ignoring the dark past of slavery, rather than remembering and acknowledging it (with the hopes it will never happen again).

Saying that it helps change habits (in my opinion) is analogous to saying that preventing kids from playing violent video games will reduce mass shootings (there is evidence it does not). I disagree with your premise that this pushes us to change habits and is only a mechanism to be ashamed of our shared (and dark) history. Lest we forget.
Actually it is. 40-50 years ago we hit a point where growth stopped absorbing productivity gains. So all future automation also contributes to under employment, lowering the price of labor, reducing the need for further automation.

To try to bring back growth to pre 1970 leavels alone would cause horrific environmental destruction we cannot afford. In addition to taxing the environmental externalities, we also need to shrink the workweek and disburse UBI to the point where labor is in demand again. Only then will future automation work the way we want it to, and the way it did in the past.
You could likely write the list, billionaire or not, on a Post-It(tm). I mean maybe billionaires keep 10 years of billionaire lifestyle in cold hard, but that would seem to be a poor use of such a huge chunk of cash.
Their website lists their address as a PO box which is probably causing problems. Some automated process added the business to Maps and the only solution might be for the business to take action and claim the listing on maps and update it.
Folks, we have the unsung hero of the thread right here. Remove the chain from blockchain!

I think you accurately describe the misconception many progressives labor under. In reality, however, there is not a single ideology connecting all those things. White abolitionists were evangelical Christians. The confederates attacked them as religious zealots, clinging to morality that was at odds with the emerging "science" regarding the races: https://www.battlefields.org/learn/primary-sources/cornersto.... Woman's suffrage was also a highly religious movement.

There's also lots of progressive ideas that turn out to be ideological dead ends. Prohibition was heavily supported by women's suffragists, and was seen as a progressive social reform. Building highways through the middle of cities was seen as a progressive and futuristic approach. Eugenics was, of course, the nadir in terms of progressive ideological dead ends in the 20th century.

Take the example of same-sex marriage. Academics like Judith Butler have consistently opposed same-sex marriage because they believe it does not go far enough to dismantle, and indeed entrenches, what they see as a repressive, patriarchal institution: https://theconversation.com/why-same-sex-marriage-is-not-the... ("But there is actually a large amount of anti-homophobic academic and everyday writing from thinkers and activists that probes the numerous problems associated with same-sex marriage."). Andrew Sullivan recognized this back in 1989, arguing that same-sex marriage was the conservative option to accommodating gays and lesbians, compared to the radical dismantling of traditional norms that people like Judith Butler espoused: https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2015/06/gay-marriage-vot....

That same Judith Butler is a leading academic in the field where "whiteness" is used as a pejorative and "objectivity" is attacked as "white culture." Maybe that, too, is an intellectual dead end, not real progress?
The definition of "right" within market dynamics isn't simple - prices will increase with the increased flow of capital regardless of whether the underlying ideas are sound. Changing the opinions of money managers can change the flow of capital. Just saying it is possible.

Your anecdote isn't equivalent here. You weren't broadcasting your idea to millions of people managing billions of dollars. If you did have that kind of power, it could have helped javascript/python/Google/startups get adopted faster.
This I highly unlikely.
Hyperscalers like AWS have custom power delivery, rack organization, redundant networking, etc. which make their instances reliable.

Long running jobs often use checkpoints which require high speed networking and storage, which I don't see an option for. Eg, I cam get EC2 instances with 100gbps networking.

Great job starting the service! But, I think you have ways to go before reaching Hyperscalers level reliability.
I think DRF Viewsets may be easy to replicate with the help of class based views from fastapi-utils[0]

But I agree that Admin is still the missing killer feature from the fastapi ecosystem. But it looks like there is an emerging ORM/Admin combo heavily based on Django[1].

I've also considered (if you prefer SQLAlchemy) the possibility of instantiating a Flask/Flask-Admin wsgi app and mounting it on a running fastapi server, but haven't been able to confirm if that works yet. (EDIT: I just confirmed it does indeed work, and is rather painless.)

I have made an in incorrect assertion.

Obviously there is a distinction, auto immune diseases/cancer/congenintal are the overwhelming example.

What I should have said is: that in this instance we are measuring infection. disease is marketing speak.

Hey HN,

Danilo here, Co-Founder of Scena 360 (https://links.scena360.com/ImdC13) and Software Engineering student at the University of Waterloo.

Today, I'm super excited to announce that we just launched some monumental upgrades to the Scena 360 Platform. Now, users can meet up with up to 25 people/space for $0 and up to 100 people/space for only $20/month.

We made these upgrades to give attendees more freedom to "run into" each other and let them hold separate group conversations without managing awkward and inorganic breakout rooms!

We're able do so without relying on any centralized media servers by ensuring that users connect to nearby folks based on proximity via WebRTC (peer-to-peer). Consequently, this makes audio, video, chat, etc. more private than most other offerings out there (that have the ability to record/leak calls).

We know that there are plenty of "spatial" video calling apps out there, and since day 1, we've been working hard to remain special:

- We're 3D-based which lets us provide a more IRL/immersive experience than 2D variants
- We have built-in realistic, professional, and customizable avatars as I personally hate having my camera turned on in video conferences (as many do by now).
- Greater focus on privacy
- No meetup duration limits
- Fastest onboarding experience: No downloads, VR headsets, or accounts necessary

Right now, Scena 360 is perfect for team socials, networking sessions, meetups and many other events that Zoom simply can't accommodate

We'll also roll out some more realistic and professional scenes in the next couple of days!
Since our previous posts on HN, we've also made some major UX enhancements!

Questions, suggestions and feedback are super welcome and appreciated!
Life insurers are the other big "forced" buyers of long bonds. Regulation tends to be stricter on them in terms of requiring a certain portfolio vs pension funds too.
> So it’s a purity test?

Deliberately? No, of course not. But it's a good way to tell where people stand, nonetheless. And I can tell right now that you personally feel much more strongly about opposing woke excesses than you do about opposing genuine racial injustice. So the performative nonsense has done its job.
The single biggest mistake I see new managers make consistently is not training your self awareness and being retrospective.

Everybody makes mistakes. The trouble is if you are not on the lookout to identify, correct and learn from them.

In my opinion, every other advice is secondary as it can only work if you are honest with yourself and wanting to apply it to improve your work.

No advice will help if you think you are better than everybody else and you attribute all your failures to other people letting you down or working against you.
That level of remoteness sort of gives me anxiety.
A lot of technical leads who become managers assume they're doing a good enough job on the management side and that they have to master every technical detail, when the truth is they're only convincing themselves that their split allegiances, attention, and priorities aren't a problem of trying to work two jobs.

An engineering manager who was technical, listens to their staff, and delegates can still be respectable and has the time and focus to help the team in a greater capacity with non-technical things proactively rather than reactively.

An engineering manager who can setup an HA database is as useful as a fireman who can play chess. It's all well-and-good, but it doesn't add value to the management of the team if someone else has that duty. Technical leads yes, but not managers.
On the other hand, no collectible trading card I've ever owned has a dead link where the picture goes.

Nor would I buy such a collectible that is damaged the moment that the producing company goes out of business.
This is seriously cool. I want to mention that on AWS you can reliably get V100's for $0.918/hr (I do this all the time) by using spot instances. The spot price hasn't changed by even 0.01 for at least a year, so you're extremely unlikely to get an unexpected shutdown. Also, how did you manage to get V100s? What was that like?

I think we should consider the version from our mirror universe to put things in perspective.
I used to play a particular game of code golf with my co-workers. Basically write the most awful code you could. We would usually pick some rule for the start of the game that week to have a theme. Something like 'write a loop that finds a string' or 'make a case statement'. There were no real rules other than every language construct and library is on the table to do it and it had to fit on the whiteboard with everyone else. So for example you may be a C++ shop that avoids throw in all cases that you can. In this game you could use them.

It had a really interesting side effect. The code in the office that was checked in went up dramatically in quality. As we learned first hand what was 'bad code' and why.

We basically forced bad things just to have a bit of fun but accidently learned something while doing it.
This is obviously highly subjective, but you might be thinking of CGA's default palette (magenta-cyan-white-black). The device had more than one palette, and many games used the red-green-yellow-black palette, which looks much more pleasing to me.

Here's an example where it's used, and it looks cool to me: https://www.mobygames.com/game/dos/defender-of-the-crown/scr... (the text is hard to read, but that's because of the low resolution).

> I'd take a 1-bit Mac game over CGA.

Those indeed look pretty cool, but that's a matter of higher resolution which allows for cool dithering effects. CGA color modes were pretty low res, so it's likely that's the actual problem you have with them, not just the 4 colors. Or rather, the combination of both factors.
>They successfully got the NFL to ban kneeling

The NFL would have almost certainly done it themself since the NFL was losing viewers massively. Just not watching a show is not canceling in my view. If that is the case then almost everybody is canceling almost everything else.

>you might remember someone saying "Get that son of a bitch off the field".

Last I checked Trump can't cancel any NFL player.

>Liz Cheney, Murkowski, Richard Burr, Bill Cassidy have successfully been censured by the GOP

I agree these are [partial] cancellations, but members of the GOP being censured by the GOP is not really the same as organization you did not choose to be a part of cancelling you.
Uff I think it was actually before 2005. Was a long time ago. I recall it was open source, which was a surprise to me. It was definitely called dot net.

I think it was more towards 2001 or something, with the whole Java dispute between SUN and Microsoft. Visual J++ had some sort of dialect. (loved the IDE though, microsoft has always been good at developer tools).

Before that I was more interested in fahrenheit // openscene graph between Microsoft and SGI.
I'm not sure that the life of a subsistence farmer is necessarily one of privilege, especially if we're imagining there's no gas and presumably the recurrent drought issues in MA aren't getting better. Seems like you might be better off getting in the pod.
Technical leads should be helping ICs. It doesn't always have to be the manager in particular.
it's both my blessing and my curse. I don't know if it's a skill per se, some might say it is - I never hesitated to walk away from money.
The users aren't that stupid. If the police have been quiet for months and suddenly start busting many different gangs by doing raids that would have required information only a few gang members had, it doesn't take a genius to figure out that the common thread is the use of Sky phones.

Once they start exploiting intel like that, it won't take long until the jig is up, so coordination and mass action becomes essential.
I tried watching it, couldn't get past the first season because of the characters. I've dealt with enough asshole Steve Jobs wannabes and the 10x rockstar programmer types in real life that watching them on screen gives me PTSD.
I dunno, I'm in the process of replacing all my Ubiquiti gear, because:

- A firmware upgrade to my switch last year enabled some sort of loop detection that would shut off ports that my Google WiFi mesh was connected to (Ethernet backhaul). Support was nice, but ultimately unable to disable that new feature of the firmware.
- My original camera NVR was flaky, possibly because of camera flakiness, partly also because it just couldn't keep up with 4 cameras.
- Replaced NVR with CloudKey Gen 2, which was fairly nice but then brought the camera flakiness into full view. I would spend DAYS every quarter messing around with rebooting cameras to get them to reassociate with the Unifi Protect server.
- A recent firmware update to the cameras left 4 out of 5 of them totally dead, unable to even be pinged, let alone associating with the Protect server.

On the plus side, the Unifi Protect mobile app is easily best in breed. Light years ahead of ReoLink or Hikvision or Montavue (I've played with all of them recently). The BlueIris mobile app seems to be pretty crappy, but I haven't shelled out the money to actually try it (based on the reviews).

I've replaced the switch with ebayed Enterprise gear, Aruba S2500 for <$100. Harder to set up, but did have enough knobs to disable the loop detection. A great PoE switch, plus it has 10Gb ports.

The cameras I've replace with MontaVue 4K cameras, which are amazing in low light. 10x the sensitivity of most other cameras in low light. I also got their DVR, which is ... meh. The mobile app is basically unusable for anything other than live view. The DVR is probably fine if you use it from a keyboard/monitor, but this is for my house and we really want a good mobile app, not some silly console. The cameras though! <chefs kiss>
Reminds me of Half Life 2's flying saw drones.
Not even a cutscene in a lot of cases: just the standard text on black background like you'd see in a movie (though some of them will do the movie thing and have little "hidden" scenes cut into the credits at points).
What I have read is that it is only changing the default setting for new repositories, and does not affect existing repositories, and that either way you can still change the default branch name. (I looked, and it also looks like you can now rename any branch easily in GitHub, so maybe that can also help with some things.)

I think that the change is unnecessary, but is probably mostly harmless (although, I do not use git; someone who does might know better than I do).

If you want to import from a different version control system, if it uses a different name such as "trunk", you can keep the same name in a mirror with a different version control system, if that is supported by the system that you are using.
All software companies have someone fulfilling this role, it just isn't always a full-time job with that title. Somebody is deciding what the product will do. In tiny companies, it may be the founders. As it grows, that may filter down to other teams. Or, if nobody takes on the role, the engineers will take it by default because they are literally the ones who choose what the product does as they write it.

As your company grows, it easily becomes a full-time job, if not a full team. It has nothing to do with 'Project Managers' from the 90s. It actually is not about project management at all in many cases... the engineering teams run their own processes. But it is about making sure they are solving the right problems, at the right time, in the right way. (Meaning, correct consumer experience... Product Managers should not be telling the engineers what to do on the technical side.)
Actually, I was "forced" to go back, as java only did green threads on bsd, and the market was moving towards Linux.

Super sad to do that, I loved my BSD jails back in '98 or before :-)
I certainly remember rebuilding X to get it to work with a new graphics card. Normally a little investigation to find out the changes I’d need to make to the code for identifying the card and sometimes some other small changes.
“Sufferings in Africa” is a fascinating memoir of some white sailors shipwrecked and enslaved in Africa. The book inspired many white leaders in the US to empathize with the abolition movement.
