I'm curious to know how Toronto got to be the demo city. Facebook has a non-engineering presence there but I was surprised to see it on their engineering blog!

  Both Alex and I are from Toronto (we are the engineers on Hyperlapse). I shot it on a little visit at the start of the summer and it became our go-to demo. That water taxi is particularly windy, bumpy and beautiful.

    Cool, you built Waterloo Course Qualifier! I remember using that. Glad to hear that Instagram has an engineering presence in Toronto.

      (Too late to edit this, but Thomas clarified that the team is from Toronto but based in Menlo Park)

  This tech was originally built by the Midnox[1] team from Waterloo/Toronto (YCW12), and later acquired by Instagram. [1] http://blog.luma.io/ http://blog.luma.io/
