Facet is harnessing machine intelligence to make photo editing quick, collaborative, and scalable. We understand that pictures are more than just pixels, so we're building a platform that lets creative professionals edit collections of photographs in terms of the people, objects, and colors they contain.

We're looking for engineers who can think deeply about complex systems and empathize with artists, and are also curious and creative. We use Typescript, React, WebGL, GraphQL, Postgres, Node, Python, and Tensorflow, but it's not a big deal if you haven't.

Our team includes folks from Google, Adobe, and Cruise, and we're backed by great VCs, former Dropbox execs, and AI researchers from Google Brain and Salesforce.

If you'd like to talk, I'm the CTO and you can drop me an email at matt at facet.ai.

I would love for Hayabusa to get more attention, but the problem isn't that it's being drowned out by nothing. It's being drowned out by stories that will have real and long-lasting effects on people's everyday lives.

To build this platform, we need engineers (like you?) who can think deeply about complex systems and empathize with artists, and are also curious, respectful, and creative. We use Typescript, React, WebGL, GraphQL, Postgres, Node, Python, Tensorflow, and Terraform, but it's not a big deal if you haven't.

We're seed funded -- backed by great VCs, former Dropbox execs, and AI researchers from Google Brain and Salesforce -- and building out our founding engineering team in SF.

- Is a signal that the driver intends to turn. Drivers should also be using their actual turn signals, of course, but as a cyclist I would much rather have a driver who fails to signal merge early and turn, rather than turn with no warning. - Allows the cyclist to more easily get around to the left.

We’re bringing interactive cinema-quality physics to mobile devices. We need someone to help us build a slick, seamless iOS app to show off our awesome physics. If you want to push the frontiers of computer graphics, work with brilliant researchers, and build a game with the most beautiful interactive 3D liquids the world has ever seen: come talk to us!

Our team is three professors and a Ph.D. student, from CMU and Berkeley. We have a track record of producing great research, with six SIGGRAPH papers among us this year alone. This is a research project, not a company, but we do have a reasonable budget. If all goes well, we'll be presenting this project at SIGGRAPH next year.

If you write fantastic iOS apps, are interested in computer graphics, and (ideally) have some experience with video on iOS, you should get in touch!

Send an email to [email protected] with your resume and tell us a bit about why you’re interested.

There's also another factor at play, which is directability. Physical correctness is not usually a priority except as far as it advances the artistic goals of the people making the movie. If the director says, "can you make the right side of that table look less red?", you need to have some way for the artist to achieve that goal, even if that's not how the scene would "really" look. I expect that the development of new tools and processes to allow precise manipulation of the lighting in globally illuminated scenes was just as much, if not more, of a barrier than the additional cost in rendering time.

* This is on a site for expatriate women in Japan.

* This page belongs to their monthly series of profiles on various women living in Japan.

* A substantial part of her profile discusses how being pregnant and taking maternity leave affected her experiences at work.

* Nobody made you read it.

The pregnancy focus seems entirely relevant to me. And, come on, it's a major life event. Why shouldn't she be allowed to be excited about it?

If you actually want to help, first listen.

I mean, yeah, ideally everyone is infinitely calm and can call these things out in a measured way every time they happen. But you're asking a lot from the victims here in order to spare the feelings of the aggressors. (Perhaps unintentional aggressors, but aggressors just the same.) What you're suggesting isn't easy.

And what's to say that the person he calls out will take it well? Look at what happened at his workplace: they told him that the things he was complaining about were only jokes and that he was too sensitive. Look at what is happening in this thread: people are complaining about his tone, complaining about his word choice, and insinuating that he's making things up. That's not even going into the people who start out ostensibly agreeing before segueing into what sounds like their main point: how racist they think the author was being.

So give the tone argument a rest. It's one of the most reliable distractions that people fall back on to avoid discussing racism, sexism, and all other kinds of oppression, and it's already taken over way too much of this thread.

I'm skeptical about this.

I don't object to all audio. Click-to-play and relevant? Great! But auto-playing, un-mutable, and completely unrelated is a terrible combination.
