Ep 234: Machines on Fire, Old Kinect New Kinect, and Birth of the Breadboard


Listen Later

It might sound like a joke, but this week, Elliot Williams and Tom Nardi start things off by asking how you keep a Polish train from running. Like always, the answer appears to be a properly modulated radio signal. After a fiery tale about Elliot's burned beans, the discussion moves over to the adventure that is home CNC ownership, the final chapter in the saga of the Arecibo Telescope, and the unexpected longevity of Microsoft's Kinect. Then it's on to the proper way to cook a PCB, FFmpeg in the browser, and a wooden cyberdeck that's worth carrying around. Finally, they'll go over the next generation of diode laser engravers, and take a look back at the origins of the lowly breadboard.
