One Year of Data Shows the Hacker Community Is Tight-knit and Welcoming

szczys writes: The Hacker (sometimes called maker) movement holds sharing of ideas at its core. We at Hackaday are in the unique position to look at a huge data set from the last 365 days showing how people share their own work, and how they discover and interact with others. We've made some data visualizations which cover project topic distribution, views throughout year and by hour in the day, interactions between members of this community, and more.

    Use the term "maker space" when looking, otherwise you might end up in a very different kind of place than you were expecting (and end up on an FBI watchlist to boot).

    The OP is one of those pedantic pricks who just CANNOT accept that "hacker" has a different meaning today than it did in the 1950's.
