@sellan_s @siggraph During final revisions, we were told explicitly to remove tables from the figures-only pages and either squeeze them into the main pages or include them in a supplemental document. I wish they could be counted as figures though. 🤷

@najeeb55555 @jbhuang0604 Linkedin is good to have when you are applying for (industry) jobs, but you have to remember that linkedin requires you to have an account to view profiles. A personal website on the other hand is an open site where you can show off your research and share papers freely.

@_AlecJacobson Don't forget the occasional Anaheim SIGGRAPHs to spice things up 🤣 I was super excited for the DC location in 2020. Maybe they'll revisit that option in the future.

Inspired me to go back and dig through some files from high school (2010) to find this. My first experience with 3D modeling was with Bryce. The same year Bryce released their last update. Luckily the ideas and theory have been far more valuable than the specific software skills.

When I was a kid, I fell in love with a program called "Bryce" that made beautiful, infinite worlds using procedural graphics: Question: Where's the 21st century version of Bryce? Like, a NeRF-GAN world generator. (If it doesn't exist yet, it's coming…)
