Episode 22: GDPRRRRrrrrrrnghh

Shiny Podcast — Mon, 21 May 2018 00:00:00 -0400

This week's Tiny Shiny actually lives up to it's name as we keep it simple with a heavily edited report on net neutrality vote and a look into GDPR, the General Data Protection Regulation, a bill...no, sorry, law slated to go into effect May 25th. We also pathetically attempt to thank some of our German listeners and giggle a lot.

Episode 18: Tiny Shiny 1

Shiny Podcast — Wed, 04 Apr 2018 00:00:00 -0400

We went back to the drawing board on the title of these shorter episodes and like a blinding light bulb smacking us in the face we arrived at Tiny Shiny. Like, duh, guys. This week we spend some time with MyFitness Pal, AMD's recent news of vulnerabilities on their CPU's, Google's continuing battle with Oracle, and more! And then we (mostly) go rapid fire on some other interesting tidbits.
