This was a fantastic read. I would love anything more like this to share with students, but either somewhat simpler or to the same level but including more basic concepts as well. Or something that goes into more detail on the practical tut

There are things I would build many of if they cost $2 instead of $20. Say a medium-resolution 3D volumetric mapping of temperature and humidity in my house becomes reasonable at $2/node, but not at $20/node. I think scale still a

This is super cool to see a quick overview of. I have a few hobby projects ongoing using C on Espressif chips. I wanted to use Rust for some of them instead. While I'm very much looking forward to ESP32 / ESP8266 support for Rust[
