I’d like to suggest linking directly to the video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gdXOS-B0Bus https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gdXOS-B0Bus) instead of the hackaday page, which doesn’t even pretend to add anything and is largely incoherent besides.

Hackaday is just blogspam. They happily rip off your work.

  On the other hand, I would never have heard of any of the cool projects they feature if not for Hackaday. Do you know of better aggregators for such content?

  You're not accounting for all the high quality content they produce. Like Creating a PCB in Everything, or Logic Noise. https://hackaday.com/tag/logic-noise/ https://hackaday.com/tag/logic-noise/ https://hackaday.com/tag/creating-a-pcb-in-everything/ https://hackaday.com/tag/creating-a-pcb-in-everything/

    they also have a kind of community website full of maniacs (in the good hacker sense) people making discrete custom CPUs for instance I admit I don't like hackaday a lot but they have some value

      They've been bought out some years ago, before that it was mostly just interesting articles at a much lower rate.

I agree this is a bad textual article, but am I one of the few people who prefer text and images over video? I literally never watch a video link here but I'll read almost any textual content. Not judging others, but I'm sad that technical videos are so prevalent and most don't have any textual counterpart.

  I absolutely prefer text to video for tutorials or documentation. I don‘t think this preference is unusual. But the linked article is not a text version of the video. It has, in fact, no content. Everything is in the video. And the final bit, where you hear the snap of the sonic boom, is worth watching the whole thing.

    Agreed, thanks for responding. I guess it was more bitching than I should have done and off topic here; I agree with your assessment of this "article".

  The video is very good, actually, for once.

  I hope the paper that was explained in the video is available published somewhere.

  The text was sufficient to prompt me to watch the video, which I wouldn't otherwise have done.
