Photon Rich, Cash Poor
- Dave has been testing U1272A's again after learning about a possible EMC issue. Dave had previously tested Fluke 87s with GSM.
- A new open source radio project (FaradayRF) has Chris wondering if there are possible.
- Dave is back to working on his Supercomputer idea (with BOINC).
- A new board might use a Microchip SPI -> Ethernet part, the ENC28J60
- NextThingCo (makers of the CHiP) announced the ChipPro and the GR8 SOM.
- They include a non-NDA datasheet for the AllWinner R8.
- Chris got to see the Chipsetter up close and personal at MFNY.
- The Open Hardware Summit went ok! Interesting discussions about the new license.
- The "Got Milk" campaign was used as PR for drinking more milk
- Taking 11 hours to get a Wifi kettle working
- Chris and Dave may start licensing "DC-Ether™" for products.
- Randall from XKCD discusses design decisions
- Solar roadways installs are a disaster
- You can watch MegaBots discuss their design decisions.
- 3D Robotics seems to be in trouble. It seems like they are pivoting to a "software only" model. We had Chris Anderson on the show back in 2012. Contrast this with bootstrapping a business like MailChimp.
- The reddit thread about SpaceX was actually about "why" we're trying to colonize mars, not the space race between boeing and them, but is interesting nonetheless.
- Dave has been watching an LHC documentary. It has not destroyed the world (yet), keep an eye on that here.
