Can we all stop for a moment to appreciate this fantastic content?
Great writing, with well-picked and carefully crafted examples, with lots of good (and correct) advice. On a web page. That you can just read.
If you don't appreciate this, let's describe what this website is NOT: it is not an ad-ridden cesspool of misinformation with auto-generated text interspersed with ads. It does not smack you in the face with a SUBSCRIBE NOW popup. It does not drag you through the mud of misleading "customize my cookie preferences" dialogs. It has zero trackers. And the information is not posted on Facebook, Tumblr, Blogger, Medium, or any of the other black holes where content goes to be stamped with "SUBSCRIBE NOW LOGIN NOW" popups and eventually disappear and die.
Michał's writing is excellent (his "Guerrilla guide to CNC and resin casting" at https://lcamtuf.coredump.cx/gcnc/ https://lcamtuf.coredump.cx/gcnc/ is a classic already), but it's not just the writing that makes this content so great.
When reading this, I am reminded of the early days of the web and it makes me happy.
