Notes.
Not a whole lot of reading this week, as I've been working on The Public Radio and trying to take an evening off.
Pathfinding.
- The way that Uber is doing this Carnegie Mellon robotics thing is pretty intense. Business, man.
Building.
- Some of the things that Foxconn is working on. <-- An impressive list.
- Nicola Twilley on how supermarket bread is made.
- Hyperloop Transportation Technologies, Inc. is planning an actual hyperloop test track.
- Adafruit is building Arduino.cc's new PCBs - in lower Manhattan.
Logistics.
- Amazon Prime is doing same-day delivery in a bunch of cities.
- There's a proposal in NYC that would make Uber's turn-by-turn directions illegal to use.
Evaluation.
- Google Consumer Surveys is pretty cool. Basically it's like Amazon Mechanical Turk, but website owners can embed it into their site in order to generate cash. Plus, it presumably doesn't have the selection bias issues (or at least not the same selection bias issues) as AMT does.
- This Chinese wifi credential sharing app seems pretty cool.
Stuff that doesn't fit into my dumb/arbitrary categories.
And.
