I got a fully open wifi stack for esp32 c3 working, no blobs, no rom calls, allregisters figured out, everything readable pure C, all calibration flows working. I need help to figure out how release this without having any legal issues.

We are all AI pilots, do not complain nor look back, just focus. Distrubution is the moat, rather you create one or mine the idea that will become no brainer to an existing one.

Modern commercial airline pilots manually fly less than 10 percent of a typical flight, using automated systems for the vast majority of the journey.

(Tree was full of apples before, easy to grab, and no one even knew it. Later we started to jump, climb and find new ways that was progressive and very exciting. All a sudden they figure out the tree that was already running out of apples, so what. Find a new one that requires tools/skills not much people has and still valuable, it is much harder to say but you are already one of the people who can and should. Your 12 year old of your self used curiosity, passion, what ever the motive is still there, just kick start it again, find your new AOL, do your first new Geocities level project that matches today's tech.That means imo it is time for you to train your first llm, dig into how inference works. Or write your first arduboy game for fun. The new challenging stuff that they can not touch any time soon hopefully that will trigger back your curiosity and passion. Best of luck! My 2 cents.)

Self promotion posts are one thing, not sure if it applies to the examples you gave, good luck if your hn user name and your github user name is same when you have low karma.

YC's jobs page is pretty good indicator of understanding who is not really hiring but advertising.

you shall use CC, serve it via ollama, you need to patch it as CC's timestamp ruins prefill cache.

Also do not forget about not well tested mRNA shots. SW update/patch without testing enough, on some humans it caused life long issues!!!

soon AI agents will require driving license like special licenses to get on to certain apis or networks. I am waiting the day AI agents will need enough karma to do anything useful for humans.

not career altering but worth to mention "Head First Series" when it comes to tech books.

The model and the harness go hand in hand, in my opinion; other models aren't interchangeable here for quality results.
