- scuff3d 11mo agoJesus, they just ripped it off whole sale and claimed it was their own.
- nobodyandproud 11mo agoThanks. I have no qualms about seeing Arduino getting “ripped off” then.
- ahurmazda 11mo agoReally appreciate the link. I simply had no idea about this history. Just the sheer intellectual dishonesty is mind-boggling.
- rramadass 11mo agoYou should submit Hernando Barragan's story as a top-level post on HN. Many people do not know of this and he certainly deserves all the recognition he can get. I have a special kind of hatred for people who steal other folks work (even if it is freely given) without any acknowledgement. It would be just desserts if Barragan teamed up with some high profile lawyers and went after Qualcomm/Arduino like the Winklewoss twins went after Mark Zuckerberg and Facebook.
