Ep 263: Better DCMA, AI Spreadsheet Play, and Home Assistants Your Way
Manage episode 408304459 series 3329514
No need to wonder what stories Hackaday Editors Elliot Williams and Al Williams were reading this week. They'll tell you about them in this week's podcast. The guys revisit the McDonald's ice cream machine issue to start. This week, DIY voice assistants and home automation took center stage. But you'll also hear about AI chat models implemented as a spreadsheet, an old-school RC controller, and more.
How many parts does it take to make a radio? Not a crystal radio, a software-defined one. Less than you might think. Of course, you'll also need an antenna, and you can make one from lawn chair webbing.
In the can't miss articles, you'll hear about the problems with the x86 architecture and how they tried to find Martian radio broadcasts in the 1920s.
