• How I installed TrueNAS on my new ASUSTOR NAS
  1 project | news.ycombinator.com | 21 Jun 2023

  I've never seen a dime from TrueNAS, but I can't speak for other content creators. I am explicit about my sponsorship, and will always mark a video and add information in both the video itself and the description disclosing exactly the relationship I have with any sponsoring vendor.

• IIL YouTube series like Linus Tech Tips Scrapyard Wars and Jet Lag: The Game's Connect 4 Across America, WEWIL?

• Ask HN: YouTube Channels for the Intellectually Curious
  3 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 25 Jul 2022

  COFFEE

  James Hoffman: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCMb0O2CdPBNi-QqPk5T3gsQ

  Deep dives into coffee machines, grinders, techniques, beans, roasting, etcetera with a healthy dose of scientific discipline to each.

  Lance Hendrick: https://www.youtube.com/c/LanceHedrick

  As above, only WAY more detail. Sometimes more than you need. I found his reviews of low-priced (yet high quality) coffee grinders to have almost too much detail, but when I slogged through it I eventually worked out the perfect grinder for my needs and only ended up spending around $300-400, which frankly is amazing.

  FOOD

  ThatDudeCanCook: https://www.youtube.com/c/CookingwithSonny

  High end chef techniques that are explained in impressively accessible detail. My only problem with this channel is I now am always disappointed when I order steak out anywhere because I know I can cook it SO MUCH BETTER MYSELF. If you take nothing else from this list, watch his video on cooking filet mignon: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fDrkI9_EEe8 If you follow the technique your mind will be blown.

  How to Cook That: https://www.youtube.com/c/HowToCookThat

  Food scientist esoteric cooking techniques, ingredients, weird stuff, and quite mind-blowing investigations into the Russian content factories that pump out fake "5 minute life-hack" media.

  Chinese Cooking Demystified: https://www.youtube.com/c/ChineseCookingDemystified

  American + Chinese couple living in Guangdong exploring authentic Chinese regional specialties. They do a great job of explaining the techniques and testing realistic alternatives for the more obscure ingredients that are simply unavailable outside of China.

  Blondie in China: https://www.youtube.com/c/BlondieinChina

  Aussie girl fluent in Mandarin, living in and exploring China's regions, cuisines and discovering all the things about day-to-day life that we just don't see from outside. Always entertaining, informative and interesting.

  Tasting History: https://www.youtube.com/c/TastingHistory

  Recreating famous dishes from history and taste-testing them, with detailed backgrounds of the why, where, how, when and who for each.

  Xiao Ying Cuisine: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJJDD-Hy76jvUMRG-dpFkcw/fea...

  New recipes almost every day. Dunno who she is, but they're always interesting dishes and mostly stuff I've never seen elsewhere.

  SCIENCE/NERDY STUFF

  Up and Atom: https://www.youtube.com/c/UpandAtom

  Physics, Quantum theory, Maths.

  Tom Scott: https://www.youtube.com/c/TomScottGo

  Really hard to categorise, but he does a great job exploring all manner of obscure things in detail.

  Julian O'Shea: https://www.youtube.com/c/JulianOShea

  Industrial design, architecture, city planning, Melbourne, obscure stuff.

  HARDWARE

  Jeff Geerling: https://www.youtube.com/c/JeffGeerling

  Great projects in and around the Raspberry Pi, Arduino, maker electronics spaces.

  MUSIC

  Dub Monitor: https://www.youtube.com/c/DubMonitor

  Far too much detail about Dub Techno, minimalist techno.

  VISUAL

  Max Cooper: https://www.youtube.com/c/MaxCoopermax

  Thought-provoking and mind-bending visuals and excellent music.

  Max Hattler: https://www.youtube.com/user/maxhattler

  Not that active any more, regrettably. But similar to above. What is it with people called Max and visuals?

• How to learn
  1 project | /r/homelab | 2 Jul 2022

  I highly recommend https://www.youtube.com/c/JeffGeerling and his book "Ansible for DevOps" and https://www.youtube.com/c/TechnoTimLive among other youtubers. Learn from other people's fails before you invest a dime.

• Making a local MicroK8s environment available externally (Part 5 - Reverse Tunnels)
  4 projects | dev.to | 15 Jun 2022

  Last but not least, before we get started, I used the following guide from the brilliant Jeff Geerling when I was trying this out for the first time on a Raspberry Pi cluster I built (maybe that will be the basis for another guide!). I urge you to check out Jeff's page and YouTube channel, he makes great videos.

• Ask HN: Is there a TV on the market without “Smart TV” features?
  4 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 11 Jun 2022

  Technically, they didn't pay... but they did offer the display as compensation (I'm going to be integrating it into a new studio build—if I can get that to happen!).

  A silly distinction in some ways, but a distinction nonetheless. I explain how I accept different types of sponsorship / review samples in my youtube repo: https://github.com/geerlingguy/youtube#paid-videos--product-...
