184: Not Likely, Possible, or Safe

Ben Krasnow (@BenKrasnow) spoke with us about prototyping, Patreon, and staying current. And a whole bunch of stuff.

January 28th Hats and Hacks Party RSVP

Ben's YouTube channel is Applied Science. His recent videos have been shot with the high speed Chronos camera (whose creator David Kronstein was on The Amp Hour #325).

Ben has a Patreon page which funds randomness. (Embedded also has a Patreon page, for randomness and mics.)

Ben was previously on the show: 119: Do Your Neighbors Have Any Idea?

For BLE prototyping, Ben mentioned the OSH Chip by Philip Freidin (146: The Loyal Opposition) and using Processing for Android to make quick-n-dirty test applications.

We mentioned the Wazer desktop waterjet.

Chris brought up this video describing impedance with a mechanical model.

One of Ben's favorite videos that he did was the first one with an electron microscope, way back in 2011: DIY Scanning Electron Microscope - Overview.

Ben gets a lot of his news from Hacker News: https://news.ycombinator.com/

Ben's Twitter criteria was that they didn't post updates often too often for his one-a-day check and that they focus on tech:

  • @bunniestudios
  • @vk2zay
  • @elonmusk (for updates on my car's firmware)
  • @LongHairNasaGuy
  • @szczys

  • @mikelectricstuf
  • @johndmcmaster
  • @michaelossmann
  • @macegr
  • @Chris_Gammell
  • @EMSL
  • @mightyohm

And some of his favorite YouTube channels (Ben said it was very difficult to distill as there are many great choices):

  • mikeselectricstuff
  • tesla500
  • Matthias Wandel
  • NightHawkInLight
  • The Signal Path
  • Techmoan

  • Haas Automation
  • Hackaday
