Is there missing punctuation in that headline or am I an idiot?
No, there is no punctuation missing, the headline writing style is just hurting comprehensibility. I'll expand it a bit.
"A startup, which is set to brick an $800 kids' robot, is trying to open-source it first"
Cheers, I can read and comprehend the original headline now. I'm Australian so English isn't my first language, at least that's my excuse.
Here you go then
"Oi, this startup’s about to turn an $800 kids’ robot into a bloody paperweight, but they’re havin’ a crack at open-sourcing it before it carks it."
I was able to read that with the accent. Goodonya
Yes, it should at least be kids'. Kids robot doesn't make sense.
