@dalias@hachyderm.io @Kadin2048@mefi.social @henk@waag.social My perspective may be different as my first paying gig (in 1982) was writing radio codecs in 8051 assembler. A lot of my career has been realtime assembler on little CPUs - often battery operated. It seems to me that the little applications appropriate for embedded controllers often don't need much maths or data structures - and subroutines for maths functions is enough. But agreed: if you want to write in Python or Java, a PIC16 is not going to scratch that itch.
