For today’s podcast Elliot Williams is joined by Jenny List, and we’re pushing the limits of mobile connectivity as Jenny’s coming to us from a North Sea ferry. We start by looking forward to the upcoming Hackaday Europe, with a new location in Lecco, Italy. We hope you can join us there!
There’s a bumper collection of hacks to talk about, with a novel soft pneumatic display, a CRT-based VR headset, an LCD photographic aperture, and a novel time-of-flight sensor array in the line-up.Then there are 3D printed PCBs, Scotch tape for a lens, and a project to map farts. We kid you not. Finally we wrap up with mind controlled toys, and a a treatise on requirements and specifications in an age of AI.

from 40:00 to about 42:00 your audio overlaps. only people from california say “hella”, just sayin…
Oh that’s hella strange. I’ll go see if I can redo that part…
(Or people who spent enough time there to have picked it up, apparently.)
And fixed. Again, thanks for the heads up!
Am I the only one who can’t download it now?
“Podcast host’s server doesn’t know where to find the file”
Maybe my client just won’t let go of the reference to the original file (using AntennaPod)
Ugh! Has it cleared up yet, or is it still messed up. You might have to re-download the RSS file or whatever — they insist on us changing the filename.
Player here works, and I uploaded the download link, at least.
Sorry about that!
Or people from Finland, for a hot take….
Benjamin Franklin? You’ve been in Deutschland too long, expat Williams.
Yeah, right?! I noticed that I said that when I was editing the audio, and there was nothing really I could do about it except overdub, which always just sounds wrong.
But yeah. Everyone knows that it’s Abraham Lincoln on the quarter. :)
