In the 7.5 years I’ve served as TechCrunch’s hardware editor, I’ve been struck by just how profoundly deep and wide this category can be. Scope is one of the most fulfilling and frustrating parts of the gig — all at the same time. So when the powers that be told me that we were doing a full day of hardware programming at Disrupt, I was simultaneously excited and overwhelmed.

I love that we’re finally giving hardware its time to shine on its very own stage. When the time came to start proposing panels, however, it was suddenly less a question of what to include and more about what we’d have to leave out. Hardware is such an embarrassment of riches. On any given day, you’ll find me writing about phones, 3D printing and manufacturing, to name a few.
