This was a novel idea once. But nowadays I would stay away from plugging in a usb device of someone I just met.

  exactly. I was going to say the same thing, then I realised I'm in hacker-news and then afraid of getting down-voted.

    They’re fake internet points, why does it matter?
    • m00dy 3y ago
      yes, you are right. The ultimate truth is Bitcoin. (I know downvotes are on their way)

        When's the last time bitcoin got your rocks off? It can be exchanged for goods and services.

          It was around January this year

  This is from a professional embedded systems engineer who is presumably only giving these to prospective clients because, obviously, they’re more expensive than regular business cards. If you can’t bring yourself to connect a USB device from your embedded systems engineer then you shouldn’t be working with that person. You’re also going to have a difficult time working with them on just about any product. Maybe just appreciate this for what it is: A novel business card.

    I had a run of Moo business cards made at one point, costing over $1/ea. As a gimmick for highly likely prospectives (or, alternately, a thank you for current clients) this is absolutely at a price point of "have 50 spun via pick and place" to have on hand.
