>Is there any must know scrum master tips that a newbie should know.

Scrum's primary job is to highlight where your problems are. if things are painful, figure out how to fix them WITHIN the scrum framework. it's trying to teach you and your team things about workflow, process, etc. the things you encounter that make things harder within the framework need to be fixed within the framework.

Your job as a Scrum Master is somewhat fluid. you're part project manager, part process engineer, and part team manager. If work isn't moving, grease the wheels and help it move. if stuff is moving to fast, help people hit the brakes.

> Is there anything about agile you wish you knew when you started with it?

Start practicing Systems level thinking. your team is not in a vacuum. everything they do effects someone else. make sure you aren't making things harder for someone else.

I wish I had started reading sooner. if you don't have a lot of time to read: Audio books. use your commute to improve your skills.

Absorb as much information as you can. Scrum is not a silver bullet. it also doesn't do work for you. it only highlights where you need to focus. the rest is on you, so read and study. Scrum and Agile are about fostering a habit of continuous and relentless improvement. you should put this to practice on yourself as well. it's the one thing I wish I had started sooner.

If your company allows it, attend the local agile conferences. these are GREAT for newbies. they cover a lot of good information. one thing you want to do is start collecting stories about different implementations. there are hundreds of successful ones and the one that works best for your team will likely be a combination of those. the more stories you have to draw from, the greater your options for success. start collecting.

Oh boy, one of my favourite topcis! I'm doing something similar right now, trying to do some feasibility studies for an electric homebuilt! I'll try to answer to the best of my abilities, hopefully others on this forum.

My answer is based almost entirely on this book: General Aviation Aircraft Design: Applied Methods and Procedures and a little more on Simplified Aircraft Design for Homebuilders. The math isn't too tricky, though it helps if you have some background in aerospace or aeronautics. There are some pretty decent courses on EdX if you want to explore those further.

The answer depends significantly on what you want your aircraft to do (slow 4-seater? fast 2-seater?), and some estimates on the shape of your aircraft. I'll summarize just the necessary parts for this question.

The other thing to note is: there isn't much different about how an electric aircraft flies, the only difference comes in when you need to calculate the range. In a typical piston aircraft, the fuel is burned off and weight goes down as the flight continues, which helps increase the overall range. For an electric, sadly, that's not an option (though electrics have other benefits!)

To find the range of an electric aircraft, you need to know the following things:

• The estimated max. gross weight of the aircraft (W)
  
• The estimated empty weight of the aircraft (W_e)
  
• The estimated payload of the aircraft (W_p)
  
• The desired cruise speed
  
• The desired cruise altitude
  
• Estimated wing-loading for the aircraft
  
• Some airplane-specific parameters like parasite drag coefficient and induced drag coefficient.
  
• The specific energy of your battery (how much energy per kilogram does it store?)
  
• The Thrust/Weight ratio for the aircraft (which determines how much thrust is required per kilo of the aircraft total weight)
  
  As you can see, the first several requirements are based on what you want: what are your requirements? The airplane-specific parameters, like drag coefficients, can be estimated using existing aircraft in the same class. Raymer's book has great resources for estimates for several parameters based on many comparable aircraft. The last few are calculated using some basic formula.
  
  Let's do a sample calculation (and you can check the numbers to make sure they're reasonable):
  
  
• I guess the max. gross weight of my aircraft is 3400lbs. This is on the high end for single-engine aircraft, comparable to the very nicely designed Cirrus SR-22. But I want to carry a lot of payload and batteries, so I need the max. gross weight. So, W = 3400
  
• The estimated empty weight of the aircraft, as per Raymer, is W_e = 1.15*pow(W,0.91) = 1880 pounds. However, this is for piston-engine aircraft. A piston engine is much, much heavier than an electric engine for the same HP. For comparison, the SR-22 has a 310hp engine, which weights 475lbs as per the spec sheet. For the same horsepower, an electric engine only weighs about 170lbs. So, the actual empty weight estimate is W_e = 1880 - 475 + 170 = 1575lbs. Not bad!
  
• The estimated payload of the aircraft: W_p = 800lbs. I want 800lbs for 4 160 pound adults, 40lbs of baggage, and 100lbs spare margin in case people are heavier than they claim.
  
• From the above estimates, I can calculate how much space I have left for my battery: W_b = W - W_e - W_p = 3400 - 1575 - 800 = 1025lbs.
  
• I want to cruise at 8000ft. Most aircraft's cruise numbers are stated for altitudes of 5000-8000ft, so this isn't too bad. The air density at this height is 0.001869 slugs/ft^3.
  
• I want to cruise at 120kts. Might seem slow, but for now it'll do. This is equal to 202ft/s.
  
• Estimated wing-loading: Wing-loading refers to how much weight is being supported by each square foot of the wing. So, you need to roughly guess your wing area. We can use a reference here, the SR22 has a wing area of 145 sq. ft. With a weight of 3400lbs, the wing loading is 23.4 lbs/sqft.
  
• Estimated induced drag factor: This represents how much drag your aircraft produces just for being in the air. It depends on the aspect ratio of the aircraft, which, again, for the SR22, is ~10, and the induced drag factor k = 0.042
  
• Estimated parasite drag factor: this represents how much drag your aircraft produces because of its shape. As per Raymer, an estimate for homebuilt aircraft is 0.0265. The RV-7 comes in at 0.0175, so 0.0265 is a "safe" high estimate.
  
• Specific energy: This is how much energy the batteries store per pound of weight. Obviously, the higher the specific energy the better for us! Today, the specific energy for most production batteries is in the range of 220-260Wh/kg. There are some reports of batteries up to 350-400Wh/kg, but let's stick with 250Wh/kg for now. With this specific energy, the battery capacity is E = Specific energy battery_weight_in_kg = 250 (1025/2.2) = 121136Wh = 121.1KWh
  
• Thrust/Weight ratio: This is calculated from a formula that uses air density at cruising altitude, the induced and parasite drag factor, etc. The actual formula is a little difficult to type out here, but for these parameters, the T/W ratio comes out to around 0.069.
  
• Required thrust: this is simply T/W W = 0.069 3400 = approx. 234lbs of thrust for cruise.
  
• Required power: this is the power the engine must put out to provide the required thrust. Assuming propeller efficiency is 0.9, this comes out to about 71KW
  
• Possible endurance: Our battery capacity was 121KWh. For an engine that consumes 71KW, this means about 1.7 hours of endurance.
  
• Range: Simply cruise speed cruise endurance = 120 1.7 = 204 nm.
  
  I have not typed out the formulae here, let me know if you'd like me to, I can do so later today after work. The biggest thing to note (that isn't mentioned here) is that aircraft geometry is extremely important. If you were to increase the wing-loading and the aspect ratio, your range goes up dramatically. For example, if I increase my wing loading to 34lbs/sq ft and the aspect ratio to 16, the endurance goes up to 2.2 hours! Of course, that has other penalties: higher aspect ratios mean longer wings, which can increase weight because they need to be long and strong. A higher wing loading means smaller wings, which means if you lose an engine and aren't able to maintain airspeed, that small wing might have trouble keeping you afloat. I think it also hurts the stall speed.
  
  Other note: this is for a conventional aircraft configuration. Electric aircraft should ideally exploit the properties of electric motors: that they can be extremely small! You don't need to have one massive engine up front, you can have several small ones on the wing. This reduces drag over the fuselage and increases the dynamic pressure over the wings, which in turn increases the lifting capacity dramatically. For reference, check out the X-57 Maxwell NASA is building using this concept (which they call "Distributed Electric Propulsion").

Its hard to sum up on what makes it worth watching, the drivers have a lot of personality, the level of competition is very high, and with 43 cars on the track there is always something going on.

The quality of racing is very good if you like a lot of passing (overtaking for the F1 terms). Depending on what track they are at, it can very close quarters racing with very aggressive driving. Lots of strategy involved on any given week.

A couple of books I would recommend are:
http://www.amazon.com/Driving-Devil-Southern-Moonshine-Detroit/dp/1400082269/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1309974163&sr=8-1

http://www.amazon.com/Cheating-Inside-Things-Winston-Pursuit/dp/1893618226/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1309974122&sr=8-1

Why do I love NASCAR?
Again its kinda hard to answer. Like all the things I've mentioned before and also the access viewers can get. A lot of drivers are on Twitter which gives you insight into their day to day lives you don't normally see. You can get complete access to radio feeds of the teams during races.

What caused me to become hooked?
Probably just growing up watching it with my Dad mostly but what really hooked me was going to see a race live and sitting in the stands watching it first hand. Just like with F1, its a life style or its own culture. If you ever get the chance I highly recommend going to a race.

I might as well start.

Skunk Works -- This is a memoir by Ben Rich of Lockheed's Advanced Development Programs division(AKA Skunk Works). If you're interested in aviation, I'd highly recommend it! Ben Rich lead the Skunk Works during development of the F-117 Nighthawk and the development of stealth technology(including a stealth ship for the Navy that never got the green light). He also worked on the U-2 Dragonlady, and designed the engine inlets for the SR-71 Blackbird.

The Machine that Changed the World -- I'm currently working on this one, so I don't have a fully developed opinion just yet. So far it's pretty neat. This is an expositional work about the Toyota Production System, and similar aspects of industrial engineering(dubbed Lean Production) that were developed in Japan after WW2. The authors have a tendency to proselytize it seems like, but maybe that's for good reason. It's not my area of expertise.

TPS predates Six Sigma and Lean Production. Lean actually came out of TPS. As they show in the video, Lean can be applied to pretty much any process. Toyota uses it for manufacturing, here they apply it in a food bank, and it is also widely used in software development.

Notice how they apply Value Stream Mapping. They start by looking at what is happening, and listing all the steps that add value, and those that do not. Putting food in a box adds value, running around to get the stuff does not add value and is waste. By eliminating waste they can reduce the takt time from 3 minutes to 11 seconds.

Another important aspect of TPS is respect for people. In its entire history, Toyota has never laid off any (salaried) workers during hard times. Instead it uses the free time to invest in kaizen.

In this case, respect for people means giving back to the American people, because the USA helped rebuild Japan after WW2.


If you want to learn more about TPS, go read Toyota Production System: Beyond Large Scale Production, written by Taiichi Ohno, the father of the Toyota Production System.

I can also recommend The Toyota Way and The Toyota Way To Lean Leadership. These are a bit more recent and an excellent insight in the Toyota way of working.

I just cracked open my Joe Sackey GTO book (page 54) and the seats/seat belt (mounting location) are definitely not in line with what I'm seeing as an original. If you see it again and could get better interior pics that would be helpful as usually that's where kits fall way short. There may have been some differences in the production run but the details of the interior still lead me to believe it's a kit (that and the "casual" driving).

EDIT: Also, if you can get a shot of the engine through the cover that will also be pretty obvious. It'll be easy to see if there really is a twin turbo 8 under there.

Very interesting stories, thank you for your post. If you're interested in this kind of thing, i reccommend this book

http://www.amazon.com/The-Yugo-Rise-Worst-History/dp/B0085SJ21M

My mom bought it for me as a joke and i started reading it not knowing what to think. i ended up finishing it and really enjoying it. Very similar story to the Yugo as to this car you posted.

My trip was Port Washington-Cape May, Cape may - Ocean City MD, Ocean City - Norfolk, then inside for a few days.

Then Beaufort NC - Charleston, Charleston - West Palm Beach. West Palm Beach arrival was December 10th.

Since then I've put in at Lauderdale, Miami, Largo, Marathon, Sanibel, Marco, and Key West.

As late as you're going you're going to encounter a VERY high chance of gales. I was lucky with strong wind but not too strong, from behind, but my jumps weren't longer than single overnights until I was well south of Hatteras. I did this because of the high incidence of gales. Even the Carolinas will be rough when you're going and I'd say you probably want to be at least in Charleston before aiming for the Bahamas. I wouldn't do the "proper" route to the Caribbean (nonstop from Norfolk north of the Bahamas) that late; to my knowledge it's certainly a heavy weather passage in the winter.

Conditions, here's the standard:

Hello! Here's a book that is fantastic, and it's cheap!

http://www.amazon.com/Driving-Devil-Southern-Moonshine-Detroit/dp/1400082269/ref=sr_1_4?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1289933281&sr=1-4

It's a great history of NASCAR. Hope this helps!

I think you might like the book Streetfight. It was a huge inspiration for this video. It's by Janette Sadik-Khan and it's about how she transformed Times Square (and many others) in NYC from car-centric to people-centric. It's an amazing story of her battling NIMBYs and state DOTs and taxi companies and the media. And she did it the way I'm proposing: putting up some cones and seeing how people like it.

The origins of Lean are a bit murky, but the most famous example is the Toyota Production System. You can read about it in two books:

The Machine that Changed the World

and

Lean Thinking

Both are easy reads and present the core concepts of Lean in a very easy to understand way. I loan my copies out to my employees on a regular basis. The Japanese are the most famous practitioners of Lean. To them, it's like a religion.

This book Driving With the Devil gives a pretty accurate representation of how NASCAR got it's start and has some great stories. I highly recommend it!

1. Journal of Commerce, but it is behind a pay wall. Worth the subscription fee if you have a need to stay out front of breaking logistics news.
   
   
2. There are several free publications that do annual rankings of freight forwarders. Inbound Logistics has one (here), but they don't actually rank 1-100, they just list them. Armstrong & Associates also puts out a good one (here) that actually ranks them 1-25.
   
   
3. There are a ridiculous number of books about logistics and supply chain management. I would look on Amazon and just search for them. A few that I have read recently are this, this, and this.
   
   
4. This is highly subjective and would depend on what level these people are out. Executive level management will be making around that much in a year, but most people who handle the day to day functions are under $100,000 (£62,000)...and even then the high end of that is not very common.

The Yugo: The Rise and Fall of the Worst Car in History was pretty good. I know there aren't many Yugo fans in here but it's still a pretty interesting read.

Let me know what you think. I especially love the comparison pictures between years. I think I'll definitely be getting the next one when it's in stock on Amazon.

The one I have (and you've ordered) covers the 2011 season, and part of 2012. The new one is out in November.

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Formula-Technical-Analysis-2012-2013/dp/8879115790

edit: apparently the new one is released in 10 days according to here... http://www.bookdepository.co.uk/Formula-1-Technical-Analysis-2012-2013-Giorgio-Piola/9788879115797

Here are some books I was able to dig up myself, are they any good?

How To Become A Successful Freight Broker: My Journey from Fast Food Manager to Freight Broker

• Real NASCAR By Daniel S. Pierce - My go-to NASCAR history book; he covers a lot of the sport's business dealings and gets further into some more recent eras (late 80's/early 90s) than some other "History of NASCAR" books.
  
  
• Driving With the Devil by Neil Thompson - The top of my hypothetical NASCAR 101 reading list. If you want the literal dirt on the sport's formation and NASCAR's organization, this book covers it. Thompson takes care to feature a lot of the big stock car racing players outside of the France family, which is incredibly eye-opening.
  
  
• He Crashed Me So I Crashed Him Back by Mark Bechtel - With the best title out of any NASCAR book, this one just gets deep into the 1979 season, which only got crazier after the groundbreaking national broadcast of the '79 500.
  
  
• NASCAR Generations by Robert Edelstein - Has a lot of firsthand accounts on almost all the famous NASCAR families.

Nascar history and a good read: http://www.amazon.com/Driving-Devil-Southern-Moonshine-Detroit-ebook/dp/B001RLTFMU/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1418389525&sr=8-4&keywords=nascar+books

For F1, the Sid Watkins books are great:

Door to Door is a good book about global supply chains and future trends. If anything, it gives a good perspective on where SCM is going. I'm a supply chain manager at a smaller but growing company. Because it's a small company, I "wear many hats" in supply chain and get a lot of experience. In a larger company in general, you get a more limited scope of responsibilities. I do a lot of cost savings projects that involve a combination of inventory management, commodity procurement, negotiations and strategic sourcing. I'm happy to answer any questions you have.

If any of you are interested reading more on some of the bikes in the photos like the Cabton, Meguro, Rikuo (Japanese Harley), and others you should check out this book:

A very interesting story on the history of Japanese Motorcycles.

Heh, what is a "non-racing fan"? "Whoo-hoo, I'm a fan of these dudes not-racing!" ;)

Pick up Driving with the Devil, amazing book!

That was my assumption.

Amazon link for anyone who's curious. Great read on lean manufacturing.

If you are really keen on driving in the UK think about spending £2.40 on a copy of DVSA Official 2015 Highway Code.

It is what all drivers should of read to pass their driving test in the UK. It will tell you how to handle roundabouts :)

Read the Highway Code book, you can find it on amazon for cheap [here] (https://www.amazon.co.uk/DVSA-Official-2015-Highway-Code/dp/0115533427/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1497345002&sr=8-1&keywords=highway+code) and I used this website which was a huge help to pass my test: http://toptests.co.uk/

This is simply not true. In fact, lean manufacturing, which was developed by Toyota, is one of the most significant advancements the auto industry has ever seen, and is "copied" by all major auto manufacturers today.

A great book to read about the subject is The Machine that Changed the World.

I actually just read a book about it "No One At The Wheel" by Sam Schwartz. https://www.amazon.com/No-One-Wheel-Driverless-Future/dp/1610398653/ref=sr_1_fkmrnull_1?crid=UQ3P8VL1IPM3&keywords=sam+schwartz+no+one+at+the+wheel&qid=1551227405&s=gateway&sprefix=sam+sch%2Caps%2C150&sr=8-1-fkmrnull

It was pretty good and went through some of this stuff.

You bet it did. This book covers it in detail, it's a great read: http://www.amazon.com/Driving-Devil-Southern-Moonshine-Detroit/dp/1400082269/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1411564972&sr=8-1&keywords=racing+with+the+devil

In some ways; bit of a mess in others... Empire of the Clouds is a pretty good account of it all.

Read Autonomy it’s about the upcoming of the self driving car race from an advisor for Waymo and former head of R&D at GM. Very fun and informative read

Many members of my own family were moonshiners back in the day, I have even heard rumors of a still being found on our property and destroyed sometime in the 1920's or 1930's. Driving with the Devil is a fascinating book on this topic, and one I recommend any Nascar fan or history buff should read. The material is interesting as fuck.

https://www.amazon.com/Empire-Clouds-Britains-Aircraft-Ruled/dp/0571247954

Anybody who is more interested in this topic should check out the book "Empire of the Clouds". It really goes into depth about the fall of the British aviation industry post-WW2.

In Autonomy [1], the author seems to suggest that companies such as GM do realize there is a lot at stake.

​

I do think spending 1B+ for GM is substantial, especially since they may have to continue their spending if R&D takes longer than expected, but I don't think it will destroy them if they have to write it down.

​

Tesla explained their business model in their Autonomy Day a few weeks ago. [2, 6] I am not familiar with Mobileye's plan.

​

I personally am worried that Tesla will release their software without it being sufficiently tested (and users not appropriately understanding this). I tend to side with the plaintiff in this case (though my knowledge is limited). [3]

​

At least one founder thinks there will only be a few successful companies, similar to how there are only a few commercial aircraft manufacturers [4].

​

Here are two projections of the economics [5, 6]. I don't remember how I felt about these values.

Here's a summary. Of course, the book that got me interested is here, The Machine that changed the World

The 1st time I saw the pic was in this book.

The caption reads "sumo wrestlers discuss a colleague's motorcycle while on a spring retreat at 99 beach, Chiba prefecture, 5 May 1966"

Based on my extremely limited knowledge of 1960s Japanese motorcycles, it appears to be a Honda C72 or C77 Dream with optional or aftermarket leg shields.

Driving with the Devil is by Neal Thompson

I was also going to recommend it.

Ten years before Elon Musk gave his rant about "the machine that builds the machine" toyota literally wrote the book on manufactering.
They created "The machine that changed the world"
It is the machine that builds the machine.

Tesla is not a leader in the automotive world, they are a lagger.
An overly expensive one at that.

Take a stroll over to Tesla Motors Forums and notice that they all have to wait months for simple repairs.
And Tesla just keeps saying we are young we will get better.... for TEN YEARS NOW.

>Don't you get it? You're demanding what no other company claimed or achieved.

What on earth are you yammering about now?
The chevy bolt is a fine electric vehicle for inner city driving.
And it don't cost 100K

Like getting you to realize they don't know how to produce cars.
