HandlyWhy we pick things up first
Feel doesn't travel well in words. So we try it ourselves, and write down what we found.
It's in the hand first. The mind follows: a spec sheet can tell you a servo's stall torque, but not whether the arm feels steady when you teleoperate it for an hour. That part you can only get by building and using the thing.
How we label claims
- Sourced: a number or statement copied from a public page we opened. We name the page, link it and give the date we read it. Pages change; the date tells you how old our reading is.
- Tested by us: only used when we built or ran the item ourselves, and we'll say what we did.
- Not tested by us: the default. If a row says nothing else, we haven't touched it.
What we leave out
Prices that we can't trace to a page, benchmark claims we haven't reproduced, and verdicts we can't back. A shorter table that's right beats a longer one that isn't.
Corrections
If a source link is dead or a number has changed, the source page wins. Tell us where to look and we'll update the date and the line.
