Whether it was rain, or a flurry of meetings, this week just flew by. My weekly reading suffered and as such I made a selection this week from a shallower pool of goodness. But nevertheless here are seven great pieces to read this weekend:

  • An end to parking: How the rise of self driving cars is going to decrease need for car parks and the impact it will have on Urban Landscapes. [Mother Jones]
  • The secret deal to merger Yoox and Net-a-Porter: A great piece of investigative reporting and dissecting the  online luxury commerce’s big merger by editor and founder of Business of Fashion, Imran Ahmd. [BOF]
  • Boredom is far for boring: At least for scientific community. [Nature]
  • What the Gulf of Maine tells us about the future of climate change and future of oceans: A very sobering piece. [Environment 360 Yale]
  • The new daughters of Bollywood: Women are taking control of the female narrative, both off and on screen. [Hazlitt]
  • How the whiskey industry gets hacked: A great piece on how enterprising mavericks are trying to make whisky age faster. [The Daily Beast]
