Carl Ciesla of Lakeshore Carbide Inc. Highlights the Essential Role of Carbide Cutting Tools in Manufacturing in HelloNation Magazine
High-performance carbide tools, including end mills and thread mills, are engineered to cut a range of materials—from aerospace-grade aluminum to hardened steel—with precision, durability, and speed. Crafted on CNC grinders with diamond wheels, these tools are built to maintain sharpness and dimensional accuracy under the most demanding conditions. Ciesla emphasizes that their exceptional hardness, second only to diamond, enables manufacturers to reduce waste, meet strict tolerances, and accelerate production timelines.
Though seldom recognized outside the industry, carbide cutting tools are critical to industries such as aerospace, automotive, and consumer electronics. They form the foundation of the supply chain by transforming raw materials into finished products. As Ciesla notes, these tools are more than components—they are the drivers of innovation and efficiency in precision machining.
These manufacturing insights are detailed in the HelloNation Magazine article, How Everything Is Made: The Role of Carbide Cutting Tools in Modern Manufacturing.

Want Google to build the features you need? Just start a tech company
Megan Ellis / Android Authority TL;DR Google Calendar on the web has a new feature. Users can now duplicate events. The feature was added after Stripe co-founder John Collison directly requested it on social media. Google has rolled out a new feature for Calendar on the web. While that new feature should come in handy to a lot of users, the more interesting aspect of this rollout is how it happened. Don't want to miss the best from Android Authority? Set us as a preferred source in Google Search to support us and make sure you never miss our latest exclusive reports, expert analysis, and much more. Earlier this week, Google CEO Sundar Pichai announced in a post on X (formerly Twitter) that a new feature is live for Google Calendar on the web (h/t TechCrunch). That new feature allows users to easily duplicate events. 'This feature is now live for everyone on Google Calendar on the web – thanks for the suggestion,' Pichai wrote. In this social post, Pichai is specifically thanking Stripe co-founder John Collison for his suggestion. Last month, Collison tagged Pichai in an X post and requested that Google Calendar add an option to duplicate events, a feature that exists in many other calendar apps. Collison specifically asked 'Could we get Ctrl-click on Google Calendar to duplicate events, like many native calendar applications have?' It's not often that you see a company as big as Google quickly implement a feature at a single user's request. Nor do you often see the CEO of that company putting on their customer service hat. But I guess being the co-founder of a large fintech company probably buys you some sway. After this announcement, commenters playfully asked if Collison could make more suggestions. Box CEO Aaron Levie joked, 'John, can you ask for Waymo to work on El Camino through the peninsula? Thanks!' Follow

Trump Takes a Wrong Turn on Nvidia's Chips
President Trump entered office with a clear mandate to supercharge American innovation and reorient global trade to benefit the U.S. and our allies. Recent trade deals showcase the potential of this approach. Yet as you note in 'Now Trump Wants an Export Tax' (Review & Outlook, Aug. 12), applying the same logic to our export-control system is troubling. The administration's proposal to allow U.S. companies to sell export-controlled technologies to China, while paying the government a percentage of the sales, is a radical departure from precedent. These technologies are controlled because of their potential to harm national security should they fall into nefarious hands. Tying licenses to revenue generation also creates conflicting incentives for the Commerce Department's Bureau of Industry and Security between safeguarding our technological edge and filling government coffers.
