33 Node Beowulf Cluster built with Raspberry Pi | Hackaday
http://hackaday.com/2013/05/21/33-node-beowulf-cluster-built-with-raspberry-pi
August 23, 2016. 33 Node Beowulf Cluster built with Raspberry Pi. May 21, 2013. Not only did [Josh Kiepert] build a 33 Node Beowulf Cluster. But he made sure it looks impressive even if you don’t know what it is. That’s thanks to the power distribution PCBs he designed and etched. In addition to injecting power through each of the RPi GPIO headers they host an RGB LED which is illuminated in blue in the images above. Quite some time ago we saw a 64-node RPi cluster.

August 19, 2016. Arduino v Arduino: Part II. March 12, 2015. Since our last article covering the Arduino v. Arduino case. We’ve received a couple of tips, done some more digging, and learned a lot more about what’s going on. We thought it was time to share the story with you as it develops. And has been directing and releasing the code that makes it all work. Most of these folks had been working together on what would become the Arduino project since as early as 2005. Around the time of the name change [...

Working 3D printed stepper motor | Hackaday
http://hackaday.com/2013/04/13/working-3d-printed-stepper-motor
August 22, 2016. Working 3D printed stepper motor. April 13, 2013. Most 3D printers use stepper motors to control the movement of the extruder head. If you could actually print those motors it would be one more big step toward self-replicating hardware. Now obviously [Chris Hawkins’] working 3d printed stepper motor. Wasn’t built 100% through 3D printing, but the majority of the parts were. All that he had to add was the electronic driver pieces, magnets, wire, and a few nails. Posted in 3d Printer hacks.

August 24, 2016. Have you failed hard enough to be on Hackaday? August 5, 2013. There’s so much more to be discovered when your projects just don’t want to work. Grinding out the bugs, getting past roadblocks, and discovering gotchas is where real hacking know-how comes from. But most people aren’t motivated to document their failures. We want to change that. We want to roll out a new weekly feature that showcases failure… well documented failure. Water damaged kayaking datalogger. Be trashing on your sk...

Cyclone PCB Factory: 3d printable circuit board mill | Hackaday
http://hackaday.com/2013/07/24/cyclone-pcb-factory-3d-printable-circuit-board-mill
August 21, 2016. Cyclone PCB Factory: 3d printable circuit board mill. July 24, 2013. If you can 3D print most of the parts for another 3D printer, why not also for a PCB mill? That’s the question answered by the Cyclone PCB Factory. It will help you kiss those toner transfer or photo resist days goodbye. We remember seeing a snap-together PCB mill. But we’re pretty sure that that one used parts milled from HDPE rather than 3D printed components. Posted in 3d Printer hacks. July 24, 2013 at 3:07 pm.

August 21, 2016. I’ve come to bury Radio Shack, Not praise it. February 5, 2015. This is a post that has been a long time coming. Today, Radio Shack, the store that has been everything from an excellent introduction to electronics and computers to a store that sells cell phones, cell phone accessories, and cell phone plans has declared bankruptcy. Even CEO Can’t Figure Out How RadioShack Still In Business. An article that like most of The Onion’s work, is a sand dune of grains of truth. With specific rev...

August 23, 2016. Hacking high school exams and foiling them with statistics. June 5, 2013. And was able to download the exam records of nearly every student that took the test. Looking even closer at the data, he also found evidence these grades were changed in some way. While scraping data off an unencrypted server isn’t much of a hack, despite what the news will tell you, we’re awfully impressed with [Debraghya]’s analysis of the data and his ability to blow the whistle and put this d...Retrotechtacula...
