Check out our #Siggraph2021 paper!
We compute linking numbers between loopy structures (such as yarn-level cloth and chainmail) to verify that the topology is preserved through operations such as animation and simulation.

This is a huge milestone --- Waymo One is now open to all riders in San Francisco!

[Waymo @Waymo]

We’re excited to announce that Waymo One is now open to SF riders — no more waitlist or invite codes! This is a key milestone in our mission to be the world’s most trusted driver, & we're thrilled to get more of you where you’re going safely. Ride today. https://t.co/qDv35gD3MI

[Waymo @Waymo]

We’ve been waiting for this moment and now we can share it with you: Today, we received our paid driverless permit from the CPUC! In the coming weeks, we’ll begin charging fares for rider-only trips and welcoming new riders into Waymo One in San Francisco. https://t.co/xxNiKuLevG

Rest in peace. Thank you for being a beacon for Christ.

Timothy J. Keller, husband, father, grandfather, mentor, friend, pastor, and scholar died this morning at home. Dad waited until he was alone with Mom. She kissed him on the forehead and he breathed his last breath. We take comfort in some of his last words...

🚨Attention faculty, researchers, and grad students in geometry and adjacent fields (broadly considered): The Summer Geometry Initiative needs your help!🚨

For fun (and because I couldn't find any!) I wrote down some closed-form parametric equations for plain-knit yarns and the twisted fibers running around them:

Also includes C code to generate curves, and displacement/alpha maps for making tiled patterns.

@JDHamkins Can you explain this a bit more? Why does CH imply there are countable many predecessors for every x?

[Waymo @Waymo]

Making history: our first 1M miles with no human driver on public roads ✅. Here’s to millions more!

@_AlecJacobson (Just trying to make a pun —- I guess “particle physics” is the more common term.)

[Ante Qu @ante_qu]

@_AlecJacobson High *energy* physics? Some of their publications have thousands of authors and very long experiments.

@amandaghassaei Very nice!

@adamnash My understanding/guess is that the dollar appreciated against the pound, maybe 20% in response to this interest-rate differential. Over the next 30 years, if there are no other changes, the pound will appreciate ~0.7% per year back against the dollar, to make the bonds equal.

@Yifei_omegaiota @SIGGRAPHAsia Nice work!

[Ante Qu @ante_qu]

Really exciting technology and ride-hailing service. :)

[Waymo @Waymo]

Fact: We’re building our autonomous driving technology to navigate safely and responsibly.
