On: How we got to LiveView

[Kiro]

Thank you! It was impossible to find anything on Google since any variant of "youtube", "latency" etc showed results for problems with YouTube or actual YouTube videos talking about latency.

The trick was to use HN search: "youtube latency" and select Comments. First result was a comment on https://www.forrestthewoods.com/blog/my_favorite_paradox/ which links the story in the "Bonus!" section.
