Welcome to new (new) TechCrunch. It's The Daily Crunch.

THE DAILY CRUNCH WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 28 2018 By Darrell Etherington New TechCrunch design! New funding for a new self-driving startup! New Fitbit smartwatches! Two of those things are exciting, one is not. It's the Daily Crunch for February 28, 2018. 1. There's a new TechCrunch (for some of you) TechCrunch has a new redesign ready to roll. Or nearly ready to roll at least. It's a big change, and so we're setting it live for a select bucket of users first. 10 percent of you will see the new site right now, selected at random. Don't worry if you don't have it yet, we're going to roll this out gradually to everyone else, too, incorporating feedback along the way. 2. Aurora raises $90 million for self-driving platform The self-driving startup from a key member of Google's self-driving car team is doing great, raising a big new round and adding two high-profile board members including Reid Hoffman and Mike Volpi. Sponsored By: Neulion The 7 Pillars of a Successful, Interactive OTT Service Join NeuLion, the leader in OTT delivery for the world's largest brands ((NBA, UFC, EFL, Univision and others)) TOMORROW as they discuss the seven pillars needed to quickly and easily get your content into consumers hands and grow your OTT service. Learn More… 3. Fitbit is planning another version of its smartwatch Fitbit is building another smartwatch to follow up its Ionic, even though that one basically did shit. But this one looks nicer? I guess? 4. Baidu's video business is doing a big U.S. IPO Baidu has a big streaming video business that it's spinning out with its own IPO, set for a U.S. launch. 5. Waymo has done 5 million miles driven on city streets Waymo has racked up over 5 million miles driven autonomously on public roads, and it's got a new 360-degree immersive experience to show you just what it's like to use an AV. 6. Facebook is looking to be LinkedIn but for everyone I guess Facebook wants to be a blue-collar job board. I still think FB is basically doing all the wrong things all the time these days. 7. Porsche is talking trash to Tesla Can Porsche steal Tesla's performance crown for EVs with its 2019 Mission E? Who knows, but they sure do talk some serious shit.

Vivian Wagner Feb 27, 2018 12:09 PM PT
	FutureProof Retail aims to redefine the in-store checkout experience. "From the consumer point of view, when you go shopping you have people who help you and service you, and you walk away happy," said President Di Di Chan. "What we're doing is bringing the online offline, to centralize that service. It's not just the top VIP shopper who can enjoy that experience -- everyone can." [More...]

A big step for self-driving cars. It's The Daily Crunch.

THE DAILY CRUNCH TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 27 2018 By Anthony Ha California takes another step towards our self-driving future, Rakuten embraces crypto and we round up the big announcements from Mobile World Congress. All that and more in The Daily Crunch for February 27, 2018. 1. California to allow testing of self-driving cars without a driver present Until now, California's DMV only allowed companies to test autonomous vehicles if there was a trained safety driver behind the wheel.

Google's Flutter app SDK for iOS and Android is now in beta Flutter is Google's open source toolkit for helping developers build iOS and Android apps. It's not necessarily a household name yet, but it's also less than a year old. (Also, do open source toolkits generally become household names? I'm just asking.) 5. Industrious picks up $80M to outclass WeWork for the enterprise Industrious pitches itself as a more premium version of WeWork, offering coworking space and workplace services to some 35 locations across 25 cities nationwide. 6. Cellebrite may have found a way to unlock iPhones running iOS 11 This is a cat-and-mouse game, and Apple engineers are presumably working hard to fix all the vulnerabilities they can find.
