Hosts Minja, Costillo, and Alvaro review their year, highlighting conferences like Supercon and DEFcon, and discussing the rise of edge machine learning on microcontrollers like the Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense. They detail hands-on reverse engineering experiences, including using an X-ray van from True View to inspect PCBs and learning chip decapping with John McMaster and Nanographs. The conversation also covers the implications of deep fakes, the repeal of net neutrality, and future goals involving KiCad PCB design and open-source robotics.
