The diesel system related topic? I heard about it and you guys were railroaded by overzealous petty tyrants, sorry it happened to you guys. The prison system is already too full and walking away was probably the better outcome

Yes this was for diesel engines. And to be clear we never knowingly sold emissions specific tampering equipment, exhaust systems "delete" parts and so on. We were very cautious because we knew others were going to prison for selling them. We were working on vehicles that were old enough not to have standalone emissions equipment.
Tough break—must have been difficult to walk away
glad to know you even through just #nostr
I appreciate it! I don't come here begging for attention or compassion, I speak to bring awareness to anyone who's willing to listen. We made our own choices and had to live with them that's how it works. I loved the work, and the potential. There isn't that much competition for above average engineers in the field, so there was a lot of potential for success. But we learned later on there is only $150m/year in revenue in the entire market according to a group called SEMA, and the post-covid economy decimated small businesses and forced warehoused to sell to market integration companies. It's a mostly dying field. I'm sure some will pivot and have success, but it's a tiny market.
