Cool, I guess, but "scary" and as always a bit obnoxious to read about for me.

Anyway, it was fun to learn about the "obscure ARC architecture" used by the IoT devices in question. Unpacked to "Argonaut RISC Core", that made me curious enough to look it up since I hadn't heard of it. And sure enough, it was related to Argonaut as in "the UK game developers founded by Jez San" [1]. That's a really interesting development! :)
