This had been spammed across about a half-dozen places in my feed so far. WtF does this have to do with hardware, anyway?

This is open source hardware.

Why do you think it's spam? It has only been posted to relevant communities..

Because it's about software, not hardware.

Please read the article. It's about open-source hardware (design).

I know that's what the software is used for, but it's still about the software itself.
