If anyone has some super wacky use cases for MoQ, this conference would be a great place to talk about them. We'll probably close submissions pretty soon to give speakers time to confirm travel plans.

So there’s a new streaming protocol being standardized that can do sub-second latency from OBS to a browser, no proprietary infra required. It’s called Media over QUIC (aka "MoQ"). I work on it, and I started a newsletter about it. Issue #0: buttondown.com/moqmonthly/archive/moq-monthly-0/

discussions are happening on the IETF ATP mailing list about working group scope and high-level goals. if you care about how the existing protocol meshes into the standards process machine, I encourage you to weigh in! "atp@ietf.org", you should subscribe and read current threads first

I regret to inform everyone that my pedantic brain couldn’t let me live until I knew whether or not dodger blue and blue jays blue are the same blue. They are ONE PANTONE NUMBER APART.

Post someone you've been told you look like who you definitely don't look like. In high school, when I worked on the school paper with @johnphudson.bsky.social he used to call me "Rivers." Didn't see it at all then; looking back though, I kinda get it.

But I digress. I'm looking for someone who knows some full-stack stuff and wants to learn things like QUIC and how hardware works and what's up with all that embedded stuff. I fully expect to be training you on the job so a hunger to learn "all the things" is a huge plus.

So I'm hiring for a Test Automation Engineer; anyone want to work for me? The role is in Louisville KY and I don't think we offer much in the way of relocation but I will ask. Not that I recommend moving to a deeply Red state TBH.

I have no complaints at all about how my life turned out but still wonder how things in the biz would be different if artists' consent had been at all interesting to people when filesharing upended the "how you get paid" math and then streaming said "here's how: .003 per play take it or leave it"

I'm surprised to find there's no way to fast forward merge a branch across repos* on GitHub.com or in the mobile apps. With all the other things they allow you to do without involving a git client, I'm surprised that's not one. *e.g. to update a fork's main branch with the latest from upstream
