Streamplace | Decentralized Video Protocol Engineer | US | Full-Time | REMOTE (Anywhere)
Streamplace is building open-source live video for Bluesky's AT Protocol as part of our mission to solve video for everybody forever. We've recently raised ~$500,000 from the Livepeer Treasury and are building our founding team.
We're in need of someone with a background in decentralized protocols and video technology. You'd be responsible for building and documenting the Streamplace segmentation and replication protocol, building out our GStreamer-based multiplatform node software, and facilitating our rollout to global low-latency platform. Our stack is primarily in Go and React Native.

What reason does Bluesky give for not opening up their AppView code?
Another notable component that is closed source is the discovery feed generator, where at least there is some reason.

> We did a backend rewrite from postgres to scylla and it has a bunch of deployment specific stuff, but is functionally identical to the open source postgres version. Its not really a "v2" in terms of new features, we just made it make use of our hardware really well[1]

This is really fun.
I define "trying to market a beer that's commonly drunk by Republicans using a trans influencer" as woke because it's:
A) ineffective at marketing the beer, because it prioritises a social justice objective instead (making it a political stance)
B) ineffective at changing any Bud drinker's mind on trans people, because it prioritises aggressive performance (making it woke)
The problem is not "oh, trans people exist, that's so woke"; it's doing activism in a way that harms both your company, because your brand is now "the gay beer", and trans people, who have to put up with a public debate about the existence of Dylan Mulvaney as well as a damaging boycott that scares marketing departments and moves the Overton window rightward.
What social justice objective is being prioritized? By whom? Go watch the actual video — it's a flat joke about her not knowing what March Madness is but drinking Bud Lights anyway. It's completely unremarkable influencer #spon content. Her being trans isn't even mentioned.

Hate to be that guy, but which model works without fail for any task that ffmpeg can do?
"Writing working commands first try for every single ffmpeg feature that exists" is the highest bar I've ever heard of, I love it. I'm gonna start listing it as a requirement on job postings. Like an ffmpeg speedrun.
And it seems to me that the more frictionless model is the one that looks like something people are used to; just "sign up with a thing."
That does leave the interconnection to the servers and others, but that may be how it has to be?
