Scott is one of the blue collar builder GOATS. 🐐

No literally... he built his own goat software.

I really enjoyed this conversation.

Scott is a former cinematographer turned land clearing contractor and the founder of Hudson Valley Forestry.

He normally works with massive forestry mulchers, pipeline right of ways, and 50 acre industrial solar sites.

But there's terrain those machines can't be used on. Steep slopes with sensitive ecosystems. Sites where a 30,000 lb mulcher does more damage than good.

So he sends in the goats.. yes like baa goats.

It was my first time learning about targeted grazing, and definitely my first time talking to someone building goat software.

@SansScott is the definition of a blue collar builder and why I'm so excited that AI put the building back in the domain experts hand.

He is the literal GOAT! 🐐

@bprintco Always take a photo of the hour meter before and after

@noisyb0y1 I don’t understand. Is he running local models? Is that why he has the cluster? And if so, then how is he using Claude?

@darekasan_net Bring back the Sony laptops they were so awesome

@bprintco My two cents having owned 5 mulchers… Service in house, even if it’s under warranty it’s usually not worth the transport and wait time unless it’s major.

@FinancialPhys @disclosetv It’s boomer bait
