Done a lot of embedded work as well, but now mostly webstuff. I think I would prefer the embedded again, web is horrible the more you get to users and browsers, wasm isnt really all that, so many caveats.
Embedded is exhausting with its unsafe and slices everywhere. And whoever wanted most of the HAL traits to be fallible had me spinning in embedded-hal.
Why have the errors when you can't really handle most of them?
But Jesus if probe-rs and the gang att ferrous systems aren't revolutionizing the embedded space. It's amazing. And now the official hal from esp32, it's moving places!
Oh yeah, not only inexperienced, but uncaring. Python is for people who truly do not care. They want it to "just work" and once it worked once, it's done.
And then they notice it wasn't done, slap some shifty patchwork on top of it. Prince and repeat for a truly masterful piece of spaghetti al dente
