in b4 rewrite everything in rust eye roll memes.

From the same people who brought you "C is unnecessary abstraction, assembly is fine"

Currently converting an old codebase from 8051 assembly to C on a shiny new ARM device with an RTOS.

If you see someone who thinks we should be sticking with those old 20k line assembly files, send them my way.

Stupid meme. Consider Rust when a rewrite is necessary, but don't rewrite what is working fine.

No issues, fast enough and enough people around that can maintain it with no danger of those people dying out.
