Self-driving cars are a growing industry but not a common field of study in traditional colleges. Udacity, which debuted an online education program last year to help fill the jobs demand, is now adding an introductory "nanodegree" on the topic. It will also add a nanodegree next year inspired by the nascent "flying car" industry.

Remember: Today we discuss self-driving cars as a certain future, but "this wasn't the case 3 years ago," Udacity co-founder and president Sebastian Thrun told Axios. Thrun was one of the earliest to work on Google's self-driving technology and a winner of the DARPA Grand Challenge.

Shasta Ventures, known for its early investments in companies like Nest, is debuting a new investment initiative dubbed the Shasta Camera Fund. Principal Jacob Mullins unveiled the fund on Monday at the TechCrunch Disrupt conference in San Francisco.

Through the new fund, the firm is going after the recent boom in apps and tools focused on photos, videos, and augmented reality. Major social media companies like Snap and Facebook have already declared the camera as the next frontier, and with tools like Apple's ARKit and Google's ARCore, among other tools, it's easier than ever for entrepreneurs to build these new media experiences.

Fund details: It will invest at the pre-seed or seed stage, up to $100,000 per startup. It's a carve-out from Shasta Ventures' Fund V.

Apple said that one key feature won't be ready for this week's release of iOS 11. The company confirmed the iPhone software update will come as expected tomorrow, but the feature that allows peer-to-peer Apple Pay transfers within iMessage won't be ready until later this fall.

"Coming this fall with an update to iOS 11 and watchOS 4, Apple Pay users will be able to send and receive money from friends and family quickly, easily and securely.," Apple said in a statement.

History lesson: Apple originally announced the feature as part of iOS 11, though it hasn't been a part of public beta versions of the software. Apple didn't specifically say it would be a part of the initial release, though many assumed it would be.

Activists who share posts documenting the persecution and ethnic cleansing of the Rohingya people by Myanmar's government on Facebook have had their posts deleted and accounts disabled, according to a report from The Daily Beast.

• Who's targeted: The Daily Beast spoke to a number of Rohingya activists — both inside and outside of Myanmar — who reported that Facebook routinely targeted their posts, which ranged from news updates to poetry, for deletion.
• Facebook's response: "In response to the situation in Myanmar, we are carefully reviewing content against our Community Standards."
• Why it matters: Myanmar just opened itself up to both the outside world and the Internet recently. Social media became the preferred form of online communication there instead of email, so cutting citizens off from Facebook by disabling their accounts can have a huge impact.
