Had coffee with Sofia from @Lovable yesterday. Got so many great insights on what worked and what didn't when she was growing the community. It was also cool to hear that they are now leaning towards B2B. Is B2B the only way to survive for startups now?🥲

TIL that USB traces on DeskHop are different lengths on purpose, to make up for the unequal traces on the Pico boards.

Swapping a part on someone else's open-source board is quick in the schematic. The layout is the real job We took DeskHop from @ChihYang04's @boardrepo, swapped USB-A for USB-C. @DeepPCB routed only what changed in 6mins

Every tech company is making its own PCB badge, so I asked Opus 5.5 to make me one and open-sourced everything. I'll be ordering it from JLC soon.

@boardrepo is now partnering with Simantic (YC F26) to bring simulation into every circuit boards in BoardRepo. simantic.com is the simulation layer in embedded systems. Test and validate firmware before the hardware exists, and let your AI agents make decisions based on data, not assumptions. All in simulation. BoardRepo users will soon be able to test firmware on circuit boards before any boards get manufactured. So excited to work with @shong0504 & @enough_ahnaf !

Excited to announce that Simantic is partnering with @boardrepo to bring simulation into PCB design workflows. BoardRepo users will be able to test firmware on simulated boards using the Simantic engine before any physical hardware exists. BoardRepo is where the world builds circuit boards: one place for engineers and AI agents to version every iteration, review and simulate the design, check it's manufacturable, and get the finished board made. More details to follow soon. simantic.com/

we promised we'd open source it. here it is! we gave @copperheadhq the twitter post by @paraschopra and let it build the entire thing from scratch: schematics, pcb, firmware, test plans, pcb art and the outputs. hardware should be as reproducible and open as software.

Google Japan open-sources a joke keyboard every year. You can now open 18 of their PCBs in the browser, no KiCad install. This is last year's dial keyboard xitter.cf/GoogleOSS/status/21057…
Google Open Source@GoogleOSSOct 1
Every Oct 1 (10/1 = 101-key keyboard), @googlejapan's Gboard team open-sources a physical keyboard. 2026's Gboard Conveyor Belt Version rotates 116 keys on 4 motorized belts—with KiCad PCBs, STLs & firmware. 👇 Repo & blog in first reply
Slide 1 of 4: Google Open Source card with a blue pill badge reading "OCTOBER 1 • 101 KEYBOARD DAY". Headline: "Looks Like a 10/1 Joke. Built as Real Open-Source Hardware." Subtitle: "Every October 1st (10/1 = 101-key keyboard), Google Japan's Gboard team unveils a satirical physical keyboard—and open-sources the complete CAD, PCB, and firmware files so anyone can actually build it." Below is a photo of a person pressing a single key at the end of a motorized four-lane desktop conveyor belt keyboard while 3D-printed key tiles circulate like a conveyor-belt sushi restaurant. Footer: Google Open Source logo, opensource.googleblog.com, and "Swipe -> 1 / 4".

Slide 2 of 4: Dark-mode hardware specification card with a green badge reading "MOZC-CONVEYORBELT • APACHE-2.0". Headline: "Rotating Keys. Real Schematics." Three stacked specification cards read: 1) "116 Choc V1 Switches (29 / Belt)" — "Four motorized conveyor belts rotate keys to a single pressing zone at the right edge—reducing left-right finger travel to zero." 2) "18 STL Files (157 Printed Parts)" — "3D-printable gears, belt links, frames, and magnetic key tiles alongside 3 custom KiCad PCB schematics (main, reflection, and sensor boards)." 3) "ATOMS3 Lite + DRV8833 + 150RPM Motor" — "Powered by an ESP32-S3 controller, dual H-bridge motor driver, N20 worm gear motor, and 568 miniature bearings." Footer: "2 / 4".

An exploded technical diagram shows the 3D-printed conveyor belt links, gears, N20 motor mount, and PCB assembly.
