It's lightning talks week here on Merge Conflict. We cover six topics in under thirty minutes! We take a look at topics that have been on our minds for a while and from our listeners. On this week's lightning talks episode we take a look at iMessage Apps, GPU Programming, Tensorflow, how to advertise an application, and ask the age old question... "Do I really need ALL the mobile platforms?".
