This week, Editor-in-Chief Elliot Williams and Al Williams shoot the breeze about all things Hackaday. We start off with some fond remembrances of Don Lancaster, a legendary hardware hacker who passed away last month. There's also news about the Hackaday Prize (the tool competition) and a rant about fast computers and slow software, a topic that drew many comments this week.

In the What's That Sound event, Al proves he's more of a Star Trek fan than a videogamer. But there were plenty of correct answers, but only one winner: []. There's always next week, so keep playing!

Elliot may be dreaming of cooler weather since he talks about ice sculptures, snow measurements, and a paint that can make things cooler. We don't know what Al is dreaming about, but he is worried about his fuses, and the ins and out of open source licensing.

Along the way, you'll hear about personal vehicles, sky cameras, and zapping weeds with extreme solar power. As usual, there is an eclectic mix of other posts. What has the Hackaday crew been up to? Field trips! Hear about Dan Maloney's visit to the SNOTEL network to measure snowfall and a report from Al and Bil Herd's trip to the Vintage Computer Festival Southwest.

What to read along? The links are over at Hackaday. Don't forget to tell us what you think in the comments!
