Use this hack to disable the toner-monitoring LED on a Brother laser printer. The LED shuts off the printer if it feels the toner is too low (boo). By disabling the LED, you can between 300-500 extra pages from the toner cartridge (yay).
The best hacking is always done with a hacksaw! Microsoft's ergo keyboards are really great, but they extend so far out to the right that my mouse arm sits at an uncomfortable angle. The solution? Remove the guts of the keyboard, re-assemble, saw off everything to the right of the enter key, put everything back in, and fold the dangling circuitry behind the board and tape it there! Keyboard Maestro handles remapping all the keys I lost that I actually use to various combinations of Alt-<Something>.
After I modified my first keyboard this way, the persistent pain in my right shoulder went away within a week. This is my third such hack-job, after the one I use at home came out the worse from an encounter with a glass of water.

The fall 2012 hackNY student hackathon brought in hundreds of students to NYU's Courant Institute for 24 hours of creative collaborative hacking on New York City startups' APIs.
NYC Startups, selected by a student organizing committee, presented their technologies at the beginning of the event, after which students formed groups to work through the night implementing their own ideas for fresh hacks built on top of these APIs.
On Sunday afternoon students presented their projects to an audience including a judging panel featuring members of the NYC startup community, which selected the final winning teams.
Since April 2010, hackNY hosts student hackathons one each semester, as well as the hackNY Fellows program, a structured internship which pairs quantitative and computational students with startups which can demonstrate a strong mentoring environment: a problem for a student to work on, a person to mentor them, and a place for them to work. Startups selected to host a student compensate student Fellows. Students enjoy free housing together and a pedagogical lecture series to introduce them to the ins and outs of joining and founding a startup in NYC.

Long abandoned historic Tie Hacker Camp in the High Uintas. Tie hackers in this area were an important part of the building of the coast to coast railroad. Tie Hackers cut railroad ties from the lodge pole and other pine and fur trees in the Utinas and hauled them to the construction sights where the railroad was being built. Both the Union Pacific and the Central Pacific used ties harvested and shaped from this area.
