    Does your platform use REST APIs or SOAP (yuck) APIs?

    Why does that Chinese guy keep prank calling Ehrlich? That egg foo yung needs a beat down.

  4. John Thomas says:

    Such an epic launch from what I’ve heard, but where do I download the client? I’ve looked everywhere, sent emails…googled this issue. Where is the platform downloaded?!?

  5. F says:

    the size of this picture is too big, why not use middle-out algorithm? which brower is required? 🙂

    Can you please find a way to increase the velocity of propagation on our networks to support your incredible speeds?

  20. Dm5000 says:

    I had a chance to check out the beta. Dudes the interface is just overwhelming. There’s too much going on. Need more user friendly.

  21. Tonya Smith says:

  32. glenn9ball says:

    That’s a 16MB image file you’re trying to pull down onto the webpage. Middle-out or not, that’s bad coding.

    1. Jonathan Meyers says:

      Yeah, a 16MB image on a website like this is indeed bad coding… not even Big Head would do that.

    2. Thomas says:

      mayhaps a joke

    3. WHAT THE HAY? says:

      16MB is the compressed size. the actual size is 1GB. Very impressive compression.

  33. sfrinx says:

    Great

  34. Murphy Dailey says:

    Rumor has it the platform was given high praise amongst the engineering community but poorly received by the only non-engineer who tested it out. Do women be trippin’, or is Astroport really not ready for the common consumer?

  35. Deric Lee says:

    Interface is PP.

  36. Yuxuan Wu says:

    I am a Friend of Jian-Yang. Sorry for his wired behavior,but can I get a invite?

  37. HELL YEAH BOIZ CONGRATS

  38. Guy says:

    Awesome.

    1. Hey Dinesh says:

      Can I get an invite?

  39. All you need now is a good public service that could possibly benefit from compression. Imagine data runs free of devices. All I need personally, is something that works and stays the same, I am still searching 😉

    Oh my God, my roommate in college dated the guy on the left! She said he was totally obsessed with her even though they only went on like two dates.

  41. Russ Hannemann says:

    This guy fucks.

  42. Paul says:

    Hello- Have you tried parallelism “middle-out” and “outer-middle” resulting in hybrid compression?

  43. Not Dinesh says:

    Can I please get an invite, I am a friend of Dinesh.

    1. Lucas says:

      Hi, I’m also a friend of Dinesh. Can I get an invite? I want to post my photos of snowboarding.

  44. Trish Noble says:

    Woohoo! Don’t have to ask for an invite anymore! Congrats, gentlemen.
