APK Breakdown for the ZWO Seestar, a peek under the hood at the hardware controls and new GPL violations
GPL TL;DR: - The Skymap is still Stellarium Web Engine, AGPL covered code. - The motor controller is an Espresso board of some type, as evidenced by the main_S50_1.4.8.bin that controls it, and the GPL covered code in /etc/zwo that pushes the code to it. (https://github.com/espressif/esptool). If the AM3/AM5 use the same architecture, that code's probably on those units as well. - libgsl was added to the Seestar and the ASIAir in 2.1. That's GPL3 code under GNU/FSF purview. - The Seestar implements opencv and the yolov5s-small model. Yolov5 is AGPL-3.0

Why is python requested in embedded software/firmware engineer jobs?
I'm not the most knowledgable on the topic, as most of what I have done was troubleshooting esptool with weird development boards. But the programmer tool is called esptool and can be found on github. https://github.com/espressif/esptool

ESPTOOL Re-Flashing Bootloader - SecureBoot - Force Option is unavailable
So after I read this - I tried to do exactly that. But the main Problem is that, the --force Option is not available within the ESPTOOL.. I use a Mac with macOS Ventura. I already created an Github-Issue here: Github. But in case anybody from this Subreddit already had this issue and give me a hint to fix that.

A fatal error occurred: Failed to connect to ESP32: Wrong boot mode detected (0x13)! The chip needs to be in download mode. What causes this, and how can I make it go back to how it was before?
I just did some googling and found this thread. It's not clear to me that the people commenting know what they are talking about but there's some discussion about using hubs and modifying the esptool.py sequence. https://github.com/espressif/esptool/issues/790
