It would be interesting to see you actually try the project and compare what your instinct told you with what Bit Pirate can really do

You can’t submit the same link twice. I’d already shared the firmware repository before, so this time I posted the website, mainly for the new web tools

Then GitHub will have to flag everyone. Take 100 professional developers today, and you can be sure all 100 use AI somewhere in their workflow.

Take a look at the codebase or just try it out, and make up your own mind

LOL ... Accurate ;)

A lot of time accessibility is about that extra effort one can't get with tight development budgets. I apply generous amounts of butter while I keep the thing dry and let it be otherwise accessible at the same time.

Is this a professional project you created on behalf of your employer or your own business for monetary gain?

Just because you are forced to use AI on the clock doesn't mean you have to for personal projects.

That’s like asking a lumberjack not to use his chainsaw to cut down a tree at home

Ok, stats to back up all 100% using AI please

A casual look around the office. Not a good representative selection for the entire population but counting to 10 and asking, everyone used ai in some fashion, extrapolate the data and you get 100%. (Not a ai first office even)

a dataset of 10 is merely anecdata

Are you challenging the op to run a massive poll just to satisfy the demands of a stranger in the comments?

Their claim doesn’t warrant proof. It’s pretty damn obvious that almost every one is tinkering with this at some level. Even simply using Google at this point is using AI.

Read the github then

You lost audience long before it could become contributors.

That was sarcasm. The people who criticize and make demands are rarely the ones who actually do the work

Read the github readme

https://github.com/geo-tp/ESP32-Bit-Pirate

the firmware is in a very different state from the website. The codebase has a test suite, and hundreds of people are already using it, so it’s had a lot more work and real world testing

ESP32 Bit Pirate is open-source firmware that turns your device into a multi-protocol development and analysis tool, inspired by the legendary Bus Pirate.

It supports sniffing, sending, scripting, and interacting with various digital protocols (I2C, UART, 1-Wire, SPI, etc.) via a serial terminal or web-based CLI. It also communicates with radio protocols like Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, Sub-GHz and RFID.

Turn a $5 ESP32-S3 into a browser-based hardware workbench.The Bit Pirate firmware is complemented by scripting, hardware dock, extension, adapters, browser tools, documentation and practical embedded workflows to enable comprehensive hardware debugging and development with serial interfaces or Wi-Fi connectivity.

> Install ESP32 Bit Pirate firmware on supported ESP32-S3 boards

Ok but is there a list of supported boards? Couldn't find it.

Edit: I couldn't find the list on the site, but it's on Github.
