Notes.

None.

Wayfinding.

• Stripe is now allowing people to apply for jobs as a team.
• Chobani is giving a large amount of stock to its employees.
• Makerbot/Stratasys is shutting down its NYC manufacturing operation and outsourcing production.

Building.

• The primary mirror of the James Webb Telescope is completely assembled.
• Just a quick shout-out to the O'Reilly Hardware Podcast, which I've *really* been enjoying recently.
• The last (finally!) of that series of articles on grain flow in forgings.
• In SpaceX news: They're planning an (unmanned) trip to Mars as early as 2018, and they became the first company other than ULA to get a US military space launch contract in over a decade.
• A team in Germany got nanotubes to work as light conductors for integrated optical circuits.

Logistics.

• Via Kane, a story about some 19th century scientists who took helium balloons to something like 37,000 feet.
• Containerized shipping is 60 years old.
• A group from Oxford released a dataset of video footage taken from cars commuting over the same roads over and over - to help self driving cars understand the high degree of variation in road conditions.
• shipmap.org (via Dan).

Evaluation.

• The Airbus A380 project incurred something like $6B in unnecessary costs due to delays caused by the fact that part of Airbus upgraded to CATIA 5, and the rest stayed on CATIA 4.
• A good, comprehensive article on how Uber planned and rolled out its London operation.
• A teardown of a new Macbook.
• A good article from the IMF on the actual impact that technology (e.g. ATMs) has on employment (e.g. bank tellers).

Stuff that doesn't fit into my dumb/arbitrary categories.

• Withings was acquired by Nokia.
• A CV of failures.
• Meshmixer has a pretty good manual - on a dedicated site.

And.

Boeing's work simulating & measuring how ice buildup affects flight.
