Completely unrelated but https://protohackers.com/ is another one of James’s projects that I love. :)

I’m love content like this. It reminds me of the mid-2000s era of the internet.

Is this “best” project I’ve seen? In terms of tech,quality,etc No. Neither are mine. This guy built a really fun project for his kids.

I love this. As AI slop gets increased, I hope that content like this starts to get filtered up to the world.

I also learned about a web-ring from his website. I think this is an artifact from the early Internet. I hope this gets more popular for website discovery reasons

LiamTronix on Youtube has some videos (ex: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7iEUp5Z1aNw) on converting a popular farm tractor (Massey Ferguson 65) to fulling electric.

Fun stuff!

I haven't seen welds that bad since visiting India, where I ran across some so dire I was compelled to photograph them in case the building fell down later: https://imgur.com/a/16FRlEW

Love the spirit of the build, though, and it's a case where weld cleanliness doesn't really matter, so, more power to him.
