I really love how this article is paced in real time from the first person as a learning adventure. Even down to the search terms used and the inner monologue. This is my absolute favorite kind of tutorial because you're not just being taught to fish, you're being shown how go about sourcing the parts to built your own fishing machinery.



Thank you for sharing this! It is sort of a vulnerable thing to write, because it reveals the shapes and bounds of my own ignorance, and the path I took to learning. I am really grateful to hear that you appreciated the approach.


No, this is great. This is extremely rare for people to do, even rarer for people to do well. You have a gift! Keep going.
