I read this blog for years but more recently got tired of its gimmicky contrarianism.

I've lost count of the number of "alternative" energy solutions it has breathlessly presented which, to anyone with a calculator and a basic understanding of physics, can't possibly make sense. e.g. the sister no-tech magazine still has an article up on the GravityLight https://www.notechmagazine.com/2013/01/how-to-design-more-po...

That's not to say it's not occasionally informative about obscure technologies of the past.
