I’d love to see more open source hardware as the next wave. The ardiuno seems like it’s a success.

- m463 7y agoI don't care as much about open source hardware as open interfaces or drivers. I hate that every single thing you buy requires an app and a login and a shitty proprietary driver. (why does my mouse need a cloud account?) In general hardware folks don't do software well. Software is just a checkbox. Meanwhile there's a world of great folks out there that will make their hardware get up and dance given the chance. Honestly they should commoditize software to increase sales of their hardware.
- neltnerb 7y agoI think this wave may have been started by Arduino, but I mean... Raspberry Pi? Teensy? MBED? Any microcontroller manufacturers' dozens of reference designs? How much more open hardware do you want? I'll be thrilled once reasonably sized phones and laptops are reasonably straightforward to get with open hardware of course, but there is lots and lots of open source hardware.
