I remember sitting in my garage back in my hometown, surrounded by the hum of salvaged motherboards and the smell of solder, trying to explain to a neighbor why his old, clunky dryer was basically a giant heater venting money out of his house. It’s a classic case of “brute force” engineering—just blasting hot air …
I remember sitting on the floor of my old garage lab, surrounded by the scent of ozone and solder, trying to figure out why a piece of salvaged hardware wouldn’t boot. It was a mess of wires and frustration, much like the first time I tried to dive into gardening. I used to think that …
I remember sitting in my garage last summer, squinting through a magnifying glass at a fragment of cobalt blue glass that looked more like a piece of junk than a masterpiece.
