You had me worried for a minute there. I thought Verizon had acquired Particle and renamed it to Electron.
sorry! This was a tricky title because I know the HN moderators like it to match the title in the link. However, the Forum title only makes sense in the context of the forum (where Particle is implied).
When the title isn't enough we sometimes use a heading or a bit of the leading paragraph. (I've done that here. Let me know if I got it wrong.) The main thing is to use language from the article itself, not make up one's own.
I like your title. Appreciate the explanation for future HN posting.
I was thinking it had to do with Sprint's Spark network and was also very confused!
Atom Editor's runtime is also called Electron.
i thought of Apache Spark :o
I don't understand why they can't just use SMT 0.1" headers.

That would let them do both. Sure, SMT headers are a bit less mechanically robust, but unless you're unplugging/replugging the thing continuously, it probably wouldn't be an issue.
