A study of the strategic architecture of the RAND Corporation in Santa Monica, California, designed in 1951 and demolished in 2005. A detailed archival history tracks the reciprocal relation between the unique research culture at RANDÑthe epicenter of strategic military thought during the Cold War and the first truly interdisciplinary research modelÑand its physical architecture, designed (based on a memorandum written by a RAND mathematician) as a redundant matrix of corridors to maximize chance interactions among researchers and promote creative thinking. What lessons does the abstract, analytical process of RAND's design hold for contemporary practice? What does the story of the RAND headquarters tell us about the climate of strategic thought in the postwar period? The book addresses these questions in the conviction that the RAND headquarters hold an important and unrecognized place in the history of architecture in the second half of the 20th century.

Works great with Switch 2’s dock
I specifically bought this for the Nintendo Switch 2’s dock. I was worried about if it had the right amount of clearance to fit but it fits perfect! Note though that only the usb 3 (blue one) one will work, the usb 2 one (black) plugs in flipped.

They work as they should
But they wouldn't work for what I needed. I purchased these but the Steam Deck to take stress off the top USB C port when charging, but they're a bit too small to fit. I can find other uses for them. They feel really well abs built to last. Cables and ports seem very secure when connected.
