I'm designing a design tool. Bluring the line between designer/developer, author/consumer and artist/scientist.

Speaking of smart speakers, I'm moving to a new flat and I'm looking for some good old dumb speaker setup. The smartest that I'd let it get would be a Bleutooth dongle.

As a recovering Audiophile, I'm gonna stay away from r/audiophile lest they temp me to sell my kidney to afford that extra 5% in "acoustic fidelity." Seriously, I'm happy with the 95%.

Now, how do I go about putting together that sound system? Or in Audiophile terms, what is the DT 770 Pro of home stereo setups?

Right. Thanks for the correction.

Theatre.js | Fullstack Engineer | Senior | Remote | https://join.theatrejs.com

At Theatre.js [0] we are enabling artists and engineers to create intricate interactive experiences. We are also empowering people to craft their own creative environments. Our mission is to blur the line between designer and developer, author and consumer, artist and scientist.

Our mission is inspired by the work of Ivan Sutherland, Seymour Papert, Bret Victor, and others.

We recently announced $4.5M in seed funding [1] and have two spots left on the core team.

Your main job as a full-stack engineer is to implement the multiplayer collaboration infrastructure. Think real-time editing like Google Docs, and branching/merging like Git (without conflicts), and component-level versioning like SelfLang. This is a big challenge in terms of performance and ergonomics, and we're pretty sure it hasn't been tried before.

If you're up for the challenge, write us a cover letter at [email protected]. We know a good engineer when we see one, so there won't be a lot of interviews to go through.

Theatre.js is an open-source motion graphics editor for the web. It is our first step towards building a collaborative medium for dynamic systems (microsites, apps, generative art, explorable explanations). We aim to blur the line between designer/developer, author/consumer, and artist/scientist.

Our inspiration comes from the work of Ivan Sutherland, Seymour Papert, Bret Victor, and others.

We launched in September [0], and have just started hiring the core team [1] with four positions open. Join us as Founding Engineers (senior-level or higher), Founding HCI Researcher, or Founding Designer (owning design from branding to UX). Your agency and comp will match your Founding X title.

Iranian dev here. I can tell you if a company goes the extra mile to provide services to us, the reason is almost always that they just care. It's not a marketing tactic. You have to care if you go through all that trouble. And there is very little publicity to these acts. No one is going to notice it but us. They only do it out of the goodness of their hearts.

I can do that. Are the auto playing videos intrusive on your device?

> how long did it take to complete this library

The library has been part of a larger project so it's hard to say how much the library itself has taken to develop.
