what is the point of this?id have to flash the arduino and risk breaking it just so i can use le bloated slow python.
>>103245279Why do you own an Arduino if you're scared of flashing it
>>103245294one of my favorite tech youtubers said I should get it
>>103245279It's not like most arduino-type people are pushing the boundaries on performance. As long as you don't need the absolute maximum speed, being able to use a scripting language and filesystem is pretty comfy.That said, I've been pleasantly surprised with it. I thought it would be unusably slow and restrictive, but it exposes the entire address space and lets you compile individual functions at runtiime for a huge speedup. Hell, you can even use inline assembly or external C modules if you really want.Pretty neat to be able to write in a high level language, while still being able to drop down to the hardware level whenever you want.
>>103245279>his board can be bricked by a failed flashhaha
>>103245279Anon, Arduino is the Python of microcontrollers
