In @letsdatascience, @askflux_ai Founder @eajulian and CTO @abeals explain why faster code delivery needs to be assessed alongside review, rework and useful outcomes - featuring an anonymized customer case, an illustrative cost calculation, and five measures teams can track without buying another tool. letsdatascience.com/news/flu…

.@WaldenRobotics Co-Founder and CEO @RussTedrake is one of @masslivenews' most influential innovators of 2026. "Walden is taking a deliberately pragmatic approach in a field often defined by hype. Rather than developing fully humanoid robots, the company combines a two-armed humanoid torso with a wheeled base, a design Tedrake says can perform a wide range of factory tasks while being far easier to certify for safety," writes Scott Kirsner. "Notably, the company was already running a robot pilot test at a North American Toyota plant within a few months of forming."

At @EON_events 2026, leaders across AI and robotics will explore “Deploying the Autonomous Future” and what it takes to move breakthrough technology from research and experimentation into the real world. Kicking off the keynote lineup are @RussTedrake, Co-Founder & CEO of @WaldenRobotics, and @samanfarid, Founder & CEO of @goformic. Russ has spent his career advancing robotic learning, dexterous manipulation, and autonomous systems, most recently co-founding Walden Robotics after leading robotics research at Toyota Research Institute. Saman is building Formic to help U.S. manufacturers deploy automation at scale, bringing experience as both a robotics entrepreneur and investor. #EON2026 takes place November 11–12 in Santa Monica.

Calibrate portfolio company Rangeview is making critical parts for data centers and drone interceptors with both humans + robotics. But for founder @cameron62s, it's not just about rebuilding American manufacturing. It's about the world he wants to build for his future kids. “If all you do is shuffle papers and change numbers in an excel sheet, what connection do you feel to your neighbor? What responsibility do you feel to your country? People that can feel the product of their labor have a different sense of pride. Steve Jobs talked about this a lot, but everyone prioritized serving a few more ads," he says. "I think we can be a nation of builders." Take a deep dive into Cameron's vision for an America that remembers how to build things, and Rangeview's place at the center of it all: piratewires.com/p/cameron-sc… @PirateWires @richdewey Photo by Chris Laszlo
