At dawn the next day, Key saw the American flag still being flown over Fort McHenry, which meant that the British had not captured it and the Battle of Baltimore had been won by the United States. After negotiations were concluded he was not allowed to leave because the British feared he would compromise their position.įorced to spend the night aboard an enemy ship, Key watched and heard the bombing of Fort McHenry. On September 13, 1814, Key was aboard the British ship HMS Tonnant negotiating a prisoner release. Francis Scott Key, an American lawyer and amateur poet, wrote the poem that would become the anthem after the Battle of Baltimore during the War of 1812. Origin of the Anthemīy now, the story of the song’s origins is widely known. Not everyone was a fan of the song at the time and today many believe it contains racist overtones. On March 3, 1931, President Herbert Hoover signed the law that would officially designate “The Star-Spangled Banner” as America’s National Anthem. Every American is familiar with “The Star-Spangled Banner.” Some may even be able to sing it or at least get through “O say can you see, by the dawn’s early light….” ![]()

See " this discussion" (which was about a full repo backup, not just a bare repo though): Greg Bacon remarked that Dropbox already retains old versions of files, which is a bit redundant with what Git already does.

This limited the freedom of users to mix-and-match third-party hardware and software. Second-generation providers, such as Skype, built closed networks for private user bases, offering the benefit of free calls and convenience while potentially charging for access to other communication networks, such as the PSTN. Popular codecs include the MDCT-based AAC-LD (used in FaceTime), the LPC/MDCT-based Opus (used in WhatsApp), the LPC-based SILK (used in Skype), μ-law and A-law versions of G.711, G.722, and an open source voice codec known as iLBC, a codec that uses only 8 kbit/s each way called G.729.Įarly providers of voice-over-IP services used business models and offered technical solutions that mirrored the architecture of the legacy telephone network. The most widely used speech coding standards in VoIP are based on the linear predictive coding (LPC) and modified discrete cosine transform (MDCT) compression methods. Various codecs exist that optimize the media stream based on application requirements and network bandwidth some implementations rely on narrowband and compressed speech, while others support high-fidelity stereo codecs. They transport media streams using special media delivery protocols that encode audio and video with audio codecs and video codecs. Instead of being transmitted over a circuit-switched network, the digital information is packetized and transmission occurs as IP packets over a packet-switched network. The steps and principles involved in originating VoIP telephone calls are similar to traditional digital telephony and involve signaling, channel setup, digitization of the analog voice signals, and encoding. The terms Internet telephony, broadband telephony, and broadband phone service specifically refer to the provisioning of communications services (voice, fax, SMS, voice-messaging) over the Internet, rather than via the public switched telephone network (PSTN), also known as plain old telephone service (POTS). Voice over Internet Protocol ( VoIP), also called IP telephony, is a method and group of technologies for the delivery of voice communications and multimedia sessions over Internet Protocol (IP) networks, such as the Internet.
