Looks like it would!
DIY Video Hosting 6 years ago
I’d like to point out that this still has deficiencies compared to Vimeo or YouTube, who transcode the source file into multiple bitrates and adaptively serve an appropriate quality based on the viewer’s available bandwidth and screen size.
This manifests as buffering on slower connections, where YouTube or Vimeo would just downgrade the user to a lower bitrate transparently (or nearly transparently).
An end user today will expect that behavior and have very little tolerance for buffering if their connection is unable to smoothly play the one bitrate the creator published (no matter how fast the CDN is).
Edit: I’m aware that it’s possible to do adaptive bitrate streaming outside of using Vimeo or YouTube (as several commenters have explained below) however this isn’t what TFA describes and I think it’s important to note this deficiency in the author’s described approach to serving their own video.
My dad got scammed for $3k worth of gift cards 6 years ago
My understanding is that the father was paying off a corrupt individual agent, not making payment to any government agency.
My dad got scammed for $3k worth of gift cards 6 years ago
thinking the government would want payment immediately in gift cards
But this is not what happened.

Have you tried looking "performant" up in a dictionary?
SEEKING WORK - SF Bay Area on-site (remote is fine too)

Their complaint is that the Canadian government subsidized development costs (which it arguably did), so it's unfair competition.

However Boeing is also quite subsidized, just more indirectly through defense contracts. And what's more, Boeing doesn't even offer a competitive product. They don't sell any aircraft in this size range.

LG admits premium display fails near wi-fi 9 years ago
This is the biggest bummer with Apple existing the display business. Say what you will about them but at least the engineering is competent.
