Don't forget the Grand Designer, who gives to each his unique DNA to become Scientists etc. As it is written: "Behold, I have created the blacksmith who blows the coals in the fire, who brings forth an instrument for his work." Says the Lord. (Isaiah 54:16)

We were delighted to welcome Space Minister, Sir Chris Bryant, from Department for Science, Innovation and Technology, to our design, manufacturing, and test facilities in Forres. It was a great opportunity to share what the team is working on, as we prepare for our inaugural launch. #JourneytoLaunch #LaunchUK

I’ve been building a token design tool for founders and protocol teams. Tokenomics should not just live in a spreadsheet or deck. Teams should be able to test how their initial design affects liquidity, price, demand, unlock pressure, staking incentives, and growth. The tool helps reason through: - who gets tokens and when they unlock - whether launch liquidity is enough - whether demand can absorb sell pressure - whether staking rewards are sustainable - whether users will take risk for token yield - how the system behaves across bull/base/bear simulations The key question is not “does this token design look good?” It’s: “If we launch this design, where does it break?” I want this to become an end-to-end workspace for token design before launch. Would love feedback from founders, investors, researchers, and token teams.

This is how a top designer uses Claude as a design partner Every designer should copy this AI workflow to improve their designs Especially solo designers at startups or designers working on small teams because they don't have the luxury of weekly design critiques or colleagues available to give them immediate design feedback 👀 Watch the full interview on Sneak Peek: Hammed shows how the Jump design team uses Claude as a design thought partner to improve Figma designs👇

Less renders, more hardware. Yesterday, we revealed the final design of Haven-1. Today, we’re sharing our latest progress update as we build the team, facilities, and hardware for the launch of the world’s first commercial space station in the second half of next year. Every step brings us closer to redefining space exploration. Stay tuned for more milestones as we make history.

In this video, we take an look at the Unitree G1, exploring its design, capabilities, and key features. Most importantly, this video marks the beginning of our upcoming full Munro & Associates teardown of the Unitree G1. Our engineering team will be disassembling the robot to analyze its actuators, drivetrain, sensors, electronics, manufacturing strategy, and overall design efficiency.
