Ok I just went down the rabbit hole of this guys projects over the last decade and I am now thoroughly impressed and utterly depressed that I'll never have as much free time as he does.
- djmips 3y agoFree time is an excuse for most people - I'm not calling you out because I don't know you but most people spend a lot of time on YouTube - Hn - Watching TV etc and they could be working on a cool project instead.
- Solvency 3y agoWatching TV? YouTube? Sounds like your peer group is biasing you. How about struggling to work from home for 8 hours a day with two kids with zero familial support, an endless array of bills, and every possible life obstacle coming your way 24/7?
- djmips 3y agoI wasn't calling you out. I don't know you. (look what I wrote) - best of luck in your situation!

- julianpye 3y agoHis work is even more inspirational after reading this rant, as he describes the therapeutic aspect of his projects and his base emotions. Still, I can't help but excuse my inferior output by admiring his incredible fine motor skills and pre-existing expertise in electronics.
