In Chinese philosophy and religion there are two principles, one negative, dark, and feminine (yin) and one positive, bright, and masculine (yang) whose interaction influences the destinies of creatures and things. This week we experienced both with the Internet of Things (IoT): The massive distributed denial of service on Friday was definitely ‘yin’ and today’s IoTHackday was definitely a positive and bright ‘yang’.

Hosts: Steve Borsch and Phil Wilson (Tim Elliott is off this week)
