Of course, I think that was true even before this episode

I don't see the down side to this.

Unless you are on the downside of it...

True enough, or the one that has to clean it up.

I think it was seven day old set water ... and you know what people do in the water.

The, ah, 'burning' question is: were the affected people participants in the show, or simply viewers?

Okay let me start by saying how much I love the ESP32. It's a 32-bit dual core SoC with wifi and bluetooth for less than $10, what's not to love?
But... Espressif, come on. You made a great piece of hardware, and I want to unlock all of its fancy features.
I ditched the Arduino framework and started coding directly against the ESP-IDF (the dev framework Espressif made specifically for the ESP32)
All is good, woo! I have access to the full STL, to filesystem mount points, to the humble printf() - all the things I couldn't get under Arduino.
Except...
The SPI bus drivers for the ESP-IDF seem to be absolute *garbage*. I've written ESP32 based drivers for an ILI9341 display adapter for both ESP-IDF and the Arduino framework, and the Arduino one runs at 40MHz and I can only top the other one out at 26MHz! Furthermore, with the ESP32 SPI drivers there seem to be timing issues. Until my good logic analyzer gets here I can't know for sure, but it looks like the SCLK line is lagging behind the data lines by half a tick. For this or some other reason I cannot get the ESP-IDF to talk to e-paper/e-ink displays at all.
Why go through all this effort to make a framework for your hardware, and then botch the SPI implementation for it, all the while making a *good* implementation of it for someone else's (Arduino) framework?!

Ouch! Sounds like trying to cajole the things into doing what you want is like sporting A Blister In The Sun.

That's a bit bizarre - mind you, I see a lot of iOT work at the moment and I shudder when they use a serial port GPS integration rather than I2C or SPI.
I'll be learning 'ROS' soon, I missed a really nice job in Ag-Tech here because I wasn't prepared to lie on my CV - that being said, yes, it's not an O/S, and I do know messaging, so I could have bluffed my way through mqtt etc
Pretty cool that you write drivers for ESP32 - a level way above me

Maybe they found, along the way of completing their own framewwork, that Arduino one imperat (attracts many more people)?

That's not it or they wouldn't still be maintaining the ESP-IDF.

Are they?
I supposed they outsourced it to you.

So Firefox has updated itself - completely hosing all my login cookies such as for CodeProject  , but that's another story - to version 89.0. A disturbing behavior of it is that anytime I make the textbox in the body (i.e., the one that is in the center of the window) the active control (i.e., by clicking in it) and start typing, the active window automatically shifts to the textbox in the menu bar. I have tried looking for a setting that stops this, but I can't find it.
Any ideas?

I have FF 89.0 for Ubuntu.
There are visible differences, like the "New Tab" page (particularly the shortcuts), but I don't see the behaviour you describe.
And my CP login cookie survived unscathed (which is just as well, seeing I don't have a copy of my KeePass db on this machine).
