Just in case it helps anyone else, tio ( https://github.com/tio/tio ) is a great featureful alternative to picocom.

I don't think your assessment of the DJI Mini thing is very fair. Sounds like they would be more than happy to accept a pull request and indeed there is an open one the maintainers are helping get merged [1]. Shame that the new workflo

Great project! If you want a hardware upgrade it's actually reasonably inexpensive to build something direct drive (which is how the real sub-30kg ones work). This gives you many advantages over the plastic gear type including a much f

This might be a US/EU difference. It's pretty popular in the EU still, although some of the market has been taken by various Simulink to C tools. Every Rolls-Royce gas turbine FADEC runs ADA binaries on a custom processor [1]. It&

I'm sorry you've had a bad experience but I don't agree, I prefer it to the ST, TI and definitely the Microchip tooling. It's CLI first, like the Espressif and Pico tooling which is a big plus for some and not for others

The TinyCurrent or uCurrent can be used for this as well when paired with a scope with scpi. However, the ranges aren't dynamic which is annoying if you're using something a WiFi part where you're going from uA to 200mA. htt

It's obviously way too late now but esphome is a very nice easy mode solution for the whole remote upload/logging/server/mqtt/iot widget thing if you don't want to drag in esp-idf. First time bootstrap is via s

Better if you need to send it to Mars and fly it there, otherwise yes which is why these designs aren't particularly widespread.

Definitely not a new form factor, this has been around for donkeys. I've personally seen them for at least 20 years at various industry shows. This is presumably a totally uncritical lazy press release copy paste. For goodness sake, NA

If MQTT is fundamentally insecure, someone needs to inform the AWS IoT and Azure IoT teams. While they are at it, they need to change their user admin consoles to only allow access via mTLS rather than sending "plain text" passwor

I wasn't aware of any specific vulnerabilities in the basic MQTT design (assuming it's over TLS). I agree that MTLS for embedded m2m/IOT auth against MQTT is pretty standard (see AWS IOT, Azure etc) but do paper printers used
