If you are a trainer, then having immediate access to all the attendees is fairly important. I'm in the process of "refactoring" my training approach to a videoconference approach (using Zoom).

HN discussionVideo is seemingly not encrypted, only pure audio streams required the key. See Airplayer ( http://ericasadun.com/ftp/AirPlay/ ) and apparently Airfoil Video Player ( http://www.rogueamoeba.com/airfoil/mac/ ) for example.

HN discussionAirPlayer from Erica Sadun would work: http://ericasadun.com/ftp/AirPlay/ However, she mentions that you can't stream music to AirPlayer due to RAOP: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remote_Audio_Output_Protocol which, I guess is not true anymore due to the parent link :) But it does seem to show that iTunes was indeed checking keys before sending to an Airport Express, but that AirPlay (for video) wasn't affected.

HN discussionCertainly a problem they're aware of, and they're trying to get as many breaking changes done in 3.0 as possible. There may or may not be more in 4.0, but they will definitely be smaller. > What does this mean looking forward? Well, Swift 2 to Swift 3 is going to be an unavoidably disruptive change for code since Cocoa renamification is going to land, and we’re going to be building impressive migration technology ag…

HN discussionPeople are already blogging mostly in Swift rather than Objective C, which was created in the mid 1980's. http://www.h4labs.com/dev/ios/swift.html Apple is doing a good job of updating ObjC but Swift already has the momentum. Apple has made it clear that they want Swift: http://ericasadun.com/2015/04/14/swift-in-case-you-didnt-thi... You can choose to ignore their subtle messages (e.g. use Autolayout, Size Classes)…
