A content item may be associated with criteria that are to be performed to unlock the content items. In response to a user action, a determination as to whether the user action satisfies the criteria may be made. In response to determining that a user satisfied the criteria, the content item may be unlocked with respect to that user, meaning that the content item may become available to that user, such as via a corresponding user device. If it is determined that the criteria is not satisfied, the content item will remain unavailable to the user. Either a service provider or a user may associate the criteria with the content item, which may include video content, audio content, textual content, or image content.

Criteria-associated media content

Described herein are systems, devices and methods for decrypting content based on location. A media device may decrypt content based on determination of a location-based decryption event. The location-based decryption event may include the media device being located within a location previously defined as authorized to decrypt the content. The location-based decryption event may also include the media device being located within a predetermined distance of a designated reference object.

Location based decryption

Techniques are described for updating resources provided to a user device, using subscription based polling. A user device may send initial requests for resource to a server, each initial request including a resource identifier and a subscriber identifier. In some cases, the subscriber identifier may uniquely identify the communication session. The server maintains subscription information correlated with the subscriber identifier, the subscription information listing which resources the user device has requested and which versions of the resources are currently available on the user device. Updates to the subscribed resources may then be provided to the user device in response to a request for updates that specifies the session identifier but that may not specify the particular subscribed resources.

Subscription based polling for resource updates

Techniques are described for generating text in a structured language, such as source code in a programming language, based on audio input. Audible tokens may be associated with higher-level constructs, including design elements such as methods, classes, design patterns, and so forth. Additionally, audible tokens may be associated with lower-level syntactic constructs of a programming language, such as programming language keywords, tokens, and so forth. Techniques may receive and parse the audio input including the audible tokens, and generate source code output. Techniques may also provide audio information indicating a development context that may otherwise be indicated visually in a development environment.
