I hope some major company takes notice of John

Companies snap up such talented people quickly

So it turns out he named the robot after himself?

That's his right, maybe it's just more convenient for him that way

its real banger bro

In my opinion, he has a hidden talent

It turns out he's not such a hidden talent after all

love that setup

you read my mind

Lean robotics has never looked more disruptive.

and the most amazing thing is that it only took $150, not millions of dollars

I can't wrap my head around the fact that he did all this and spent $150

He's just like Tony Stark

Why does this hit so close to home at this time of day...

He ended up with a really cool robot

I think so, too

You don’t need millions to test a robotics idea anymore

describe this video using only 3 emojis. i'll go first: 🔥🤯✨

honestly the indie hacker energy is unmatched

gamble news bro

solo devs on rugs beat funded labs on stages every time

This shows how accessible tech has become. High performance doesn't always need high budgets.
