    "Built a mini particle accelerator/fusion reactor" immediately followed by "didn't want it to dilute my portfolio so I removed it" has got to be the most insane thing I've ever heard... can't wait for the DIY quantum computer

      Because it's actually really cliché. And it ain't that hard, you just need the money to do it, so that you can afford a normal vacuum and a turbomolecular pump, a high voltage source and an enclosure with seals that can withstand the vacuum.
      Edit: you can wing it with the enclosure if you have a powerful enough turbomelecular pump. But you definitely ain't going to achieve fusion without a turbomulecular pump.

There's no reason to glorify or envy this guy because you didn't build a car at that age, you're seeing all the upticks without the hidden consequences you most likely would not be aware of until you do go on a path similar to this. Not just engineering but any discipline. It is not a sin to live a normal/average life, remember that.

      ​@@learnerzzzzzzSpeaking for myself but being in a different discipline(Post prod) what I didn't realize until retrospect was that for one I did genuinely enjoy spending my time doing what I did, but I also had the added motivation of being in a very unhealthy family unit(parents). I attribute at least part of my dedication to that if helped me detach from all my other problems and focus on learning nodes or topology or whatever else. From the looks of it this guy was not burdened financially but maybe some other way via parental expectations(Asian sterotype). In reality a minority of high achievers are motivated entirely by the pursuit of their endeavor. Using the carrot and stick analogy, if you have a stick situation and your positively enforced to keep pouring into your "thing", you'll look up eventually and only then realize that you were putting off other issues in your life that need addressing. I caught this on relatively early, a year out of highschool, currently a uni sophomore, and I'm starting to open my heart to enjoying other things life has to offer. Lovers, friends, community, all that shiz.
      All these comments shower this guy with envy and i definetly do not mean to demean this guy for the path he's taking, but when you tunnel vision yourself for so long sometimes you need a real breather to assess where you stand. It's not like I quit doing what I do, I enjoy very much so my discipline of choice and look forward to working in it's given field, but theres more to life than that, and sometimes I have to remind myself to allocate time towards other things that matter.

      A guy I know did rocketry as a hobby in high school and was doing high power rocketry in college as a freshman. He built and designed his own high power rocket and moved into making supersonic rockets. He then proposed a two-stage rocket that he lead our team with and then that worked out amazingly and I got to see it launch. With that he got a propulsion testing internship at Blue Origin with the BE-4 engines after sophomore year in college. He has the passion and the network to make it. Also he is friend of Joe Barnard, not surprisingly.

    • @lambda653
      @lambda653 2 дня назад

      It's true that the reason he became so skilled in engineering is because of his dedication and the amount of time he's spent doing this. However, I think a point that isn't brought up enough is that none of this would be possible if he wasn't properly socialized.
      If you have absent parents, negligent parents, discouraging parents, very selfish parents that constantly fight with each other, a chaotic family arrangement, and/or a traumatic upbringing, you won't have the life skills, mental awareness, and emotional stability to be capable of being this kind of person. The skills and patterns of behavior that your parents raise you with are incredibly crucial to how well you can function early in life, and unfortunately, for most of us who grow up under these broken households, it makes outcomes like this impossible just because our parents were $#1&heads. How are you supposed to maintain the motivation and organization to work on these projects every single day after school and on the weekend, if your father is a raging alcoholic, your mother spends all day either working at her job or watching TV at home, and one of your older siblings passed away from an 0D when you were just 10 years old? The answer is you can't unless you are literally one in fifty million.
      So, obviously, as far as generational wealth goes, clearly that isn't really a significant factor here considering he started with very affordable components anyways. But he is privileged in the sense that he clearly grew up under a very functional household, and he was raised by smart parents who knew to teach him to be ambitious and to work hard. That kind of upbringing is far above the mean and it should be recognized as so.

      On top of that, although he *now* has financial support, that wasn't always the case. He made about 200 projects with as little cost as possible prior to the car... to the point of doing things like making his own power supply to save about $40, which was out of his budget at that point, or making that beginning robot arm made out of practically trash. A whole section of the video was dedicated to finding cheap components or making his own...
      He's unbelievably skilled at what he does and proved that money is definitely not a barrier. If he hypothetically didn't get funding for a whole car, I promise he's capable of making a dozen other impressive builds. Even if you don't buy that, very few people can make a particle accelerator in his garage, no matter how much money they had.

    Hello, Liong.
    I don't usually comment, but this is such a good video. It really puts the message across that you can always do things on your own. Certainly, going to a good school/college helps, but now quality information is available online on the internet. People can learn in their free time and do things the way you have done it. This is one inspiring video. Thanks for sharing it. 😁🤜🏻🤛🏻

    Holy crap, I did not expect such immense knowledge when I clicked on this video, my journey started like yours, at the same age, with the same kit. But I really had no funding, my parents don't give me any money for anything and I'm too young to legally have a job, so I basically wasted a couple years repurposing the same components doing the same basic things. The most complex thing I created was a Raspberry Pi based smartwatch, with gyroscopic gestures, animations, Real-Time clock, and a crappy image rendering algorithm. I've discontinued the project ever since because I could not gather the components I needed. If I had even a small amount of money to support my projects I would've gotten so much farther, probably not building a car like you, but it was my dream to build those awesome things you built like the solid state tesla coil, the toroidal plasma generator, the Jacobs ladder and so on. I'm super happy for you that you were able to get so far, it was my dream and maybe I'll get my redemption soon but I hope you can make the best out of your skills

    I don’t want to try and undermine the importance of grades but projects like these can be far more valuable to gauge the knowledge of an individual than a general letter grade because it is being applied and done so in ways that tests the flexibility of your understandings. The execution of a concept is just as important and in some ways more so than the initial concept itself. I have just gone through the college process and my own brief budget video actually helped me a lot with admission to different colleges.
