My practice as a scientist is atheistic. That is to say, when I set up an experiment I assume that no god, angel or devil is going to interfere with its course; and this assumption has been justified by such success as I have achieved in my professional career.

Fabric Software has discontinued work on Fabric Engine, its much-praised framework for developing custom tools for VFX and games pipelines, along with its supporting tools for DCC software.
a computational engine, that will enable web developers to tap into a computer’s multi-core power to bring multi-threaded performance in a web browser.
Used for Image/video processing – 3D Interaction (games, storytelling, interactive manuals) – Perceptual/Visual computing – Simulation (physics, crowds, financial, etc) – Visualization for use in medical, engineering, and oil and gas – Raw computation – Data mining – Business intelligence – Semantic analysis – Recommendation engines – Large-scale simulations – Other computationally intensive applications

Tencent just made Hunyuan3D 2.1 open-source.
This is the first fully open-source, production-ready PBR 3D generative model with cinema-grade quality.
https://github.com/Tencent-Hunyuan/Hunyuan3D-2.1
What makes it special?
• Advanced PBR material synthesis brings realistic materials like leather, bronze, and more to life with stunning light interactions.
• Complete access to model weights, training/inference code, data pipelines.
• Optimized to run on accessible hardware.
• Built for real-world applications with professional-grade output quality.
They’re making it accessible to everyone:
• Complete open-source ecosystem with full documentation.
• Ready-to-use model weights and training infrastructure.
• Live demo available for instant testing.
• Comprehensive GitHub repository with implementation details.
