I would say, no need, its a cool article that can stand on its own! One thing that was nit clear in the end was how the wifi pwd was generated

Love that people are still in it for the love of the game. Not just collecting credits for the work your agent did. Please keep writing.

Sorry to hear the author is disillusioned with writing for human audiences. FWIW I continue to enjoy human writing and rather enjoyed this article.

> My brother-in-law (Óscar Lestón) was the brave soul that desoldered the flash memory (I was too scared to even try it):

I always find quotes like these fascinating as I am the only one of my extended family (20+ cousins) that works in technology (SRE).

It's like the couples where both partners are SWEs: do you read each other's code and have opinions on them as developers??

The introduction gives me strong PoCorGTFO vibes. I miss writing with personality, regardless of how I care for it.

I love the jank present. It validates me.
