News story with video of the dragon moving: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C_RS5alv6QA" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C_RS5alv6QA</a><p>Looks like this isn't the first time it's happened, back in 2014 there was another based on Toothless from <i>How to Train Your Dragon:</i> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yHfJ1gby8_Y" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yHfJ1gby8_Y</a>
That's really cool. A year and a half of effort from different people with different skills. The video from a another comment (<a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27097418" rel="nofollow">https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27097418</a>) does a better job of showing how well done this is.<p>Off-topic: That's perhaps the most annoying paywall I've encountered yet. It first pretends to give you the whole article, then revokes it when you reject the page's attempt to sign you up for notifications. Then there's a separate count-down timer to trigger it too.<p><a href="https://archive.is/yCN1m" rel="nofollow">https://archive.is/yCN1m</a>

What are the challenges in making a website that only scrolls vertically? The content fits nicely in the viewpoint but it really wants to scroll horizontally on my phone.<p>(Not a front end dev, genuinely curious)
I’ve been noticing that 99% of the time when an article mentions the age of an individual, it’s usually a clickbait bullshit appeal to emotion/cocktail of other logical fallacies waiting to be gobbled up by unquestioning ninnies.
Reminds me of a faerie dragon from homm3, I am jealous of this 14 year old, especially because a long term personal dream of mine is flying to downtown fort worth on a mechanical ornithopter dragon.
