I guess they had to do something to prevent multicasting from coming back.

#192Earlier quoted context omitted.
Cloudflare already does this ( https://www.cloudflare.com/products/cloudflare-stream/ ) I'd be willing to bet that Cloudflare TV is built on top of their Stream infrastructure.
Stream is for VOD, live TV is an entirely different problem
Most of these sessions seem to be pre-recorded, so not especially.

#193A session on censorship under the guise of "protecting kids" with someone from Common Sense Media and no counter. And it's a pre-record, so no questions.
I guess that's to be expected from the company that just launched the homophobic web filter.

#195Genuinely curious,
My possibly biased perception is that people in Europe are more "internationally aware" (for lack of a better word) than those in the US. e.g. a website that is built in Europe but likely to attract international interest will include a timezone.
The schedule[0] for this just has dates and times. I have no idea when anything is, though some of it looks interesting.
Is there a "default" timezone that Americans assume on an American-centric site that doesn't actually state timezones? California?

#196I'm a generally technical person and I'm simply flat out uninterested in video content - the stuff that will be on this sounds broadly interesting to me but I'd rather read it in article format. I understand video "performs" well in a lot of contexts (and thus is of particular interest to marketing people) but I am always surprised when content targeted broadly towards the technical community is done in a video-first…
> we're in the minority, and there is enough of a technical audience that would prefer to watch this kind of stuff than read it.
Note, you can be in the vast majority and the second half of the sentence can be true. A media channel that only reaches 10% of your customer base can still make sense.

I like both, video content on fields/interests related to stuff I'm interested in is great if it doesn't require really deep focus, often I watch those at 110-150% speed.
If I'm really trying to grok material a quiet room and a book is still the best.
So it's a case of the nature of the content fitting the form of the content.

In my experience it's usually EST timezone (Eastern Time Zone). Currently that's UTC-4.
Re: Cloudflare TV
#200What timezone is this all in? The schedule doesn't say.
This really confused me too. It doesn't seem to say, but it does show the current time as an orange bar on the schedule. With that additional information, I can tell you that it is in NZST. (Okay, no, it's probably just in whatever your browser says your local timezone is, or something like that.)
I think it needs to say so. Things on the internet are very rarely in the correct timezone for me, so I generally just assume times given are incomprehensible hashes. I can count on one hand how many "live streams" I've watched live.
