Fun #esp32 trick (on the s3 at least) - you can force it into download mode without having access to the GPIO0 wire; there's a RTC_CNTL_FORCE_DOWNLOAD_BOOT bit. In #rustlang with the esp-hal it looks like:
// force download mode after the reboot

Starting to believe that “moving fast” in professional environments is actually just “delay this problem for someone else to deal with in the future”.
Context: I’ve been helping oversee an email service provider (ESP) migration for an enterprise org (1,000 people).
Every other day we find unexpected issues that were caused by someone trying to save time and move quickly in the past. And we have to spend the time those people supposedly saved in the past by fixing their issues now, in their future.
No time was actually saved, folks. It was an illusion.
