In this week’s episode of the Hackaday podcast, Elliot Williams and Tom Nardi discuss a controversial topic of late: potentially radioactive shrimp imported into the US via Walmart, and detectable by the FDA.
Following on from this, the pair discuss two atomic-themed projects in the One Hertz Challenge, and a range of other topics including the latest 3D printing materials, using old Android smartphones as low-power Linux servers, and the challenges of creating good schematics.
The discussion finishes on a philosophical note, weighing the nature of digital ownership and its influence on the hardware landscape, as well as the value of open-source firmware projects such as QMK.
The episode concludes with ‘Quick Hacks’ recommendations, as well as a quiz on a mysterious sound.
