Episode description

Hackaday editors Mike Szczys and Elliot Williams sort through the hardware hacking gems of the week. There was a kerfuffle about whether a ventilator data dump from Medtronics was open source or not, and cool hacks from machine-learning soldering iron controllers to 3D-printing your own solder paste stencils. A motion light teardown shows it's not being done with passive-infrared, we ask what's the deal with Tim Berners-Lee's decentralized internet, and we geek out about keyboards that aren't QWERTY.
