It depends entirely on your power supply and layout. As evidenced by the fact that there are literally millions of working ESP32s out there in the wild with far less than 220uF capacitance on 3V3.

The annoying thing is this is only due to "calibration" which can, with some highly esoteric optimisations, be skipped. Depending on the application , this can realise massive gains in peak power, wakeup latency, and even average power. The whole process is hidden in a binary blob though and espressif will not elaborate on it, so it's very challenging to alter.

No. All you would need is a SPI interface or whatever the Lora module speaks. The most basic microcontroller can do that. Any ESP32 is overkill for this.

You'll be one of the first harrassing them to "fix" their algorithm when it starts noticing unflattering facts about the frequency of black faces in mugshot data.

Fwiw there are umpteen anecdotes from men on the opposite side of this situation. You can imagine, even in a situation where the woman is the aggressor, the instinct and unofficial practice is to always arrest the man.

I'm a little puzzled, to be frank, to see one being handled this way. There are definitely two sides to this story.

Why is it not routine to "compile" Python? I understand that the interpreter is great for rapid iteration, cross compatibility, etc. But why is it accepted practice in the Python world to eschew all of the benefits of compilation by just dumping the "source" file in production?
