How The Cardinals Nearly Lost The War For St. Louis | Defector

One city wasn’t big enough for two teams, and it feels, with the benefit of hindsight, like it was destined to turn out the way it did. The Cardinals became the class of the National League, as much a part of St. Louis as toasted ravioli and the Gateway Arch, playing before the self-appointed Best […]

@wmd @SwiftOnSecurity Wasn't that long ago. Also worth remembering that a carburetor is just a very particular implementation of an analog computer that's just as finicky and annoying to debug as a digital one. 😂
@brooks Oh, this was excluding microcontrollers (which aren't typically ARM from what I understand) that run various sub-functions around the car. This was general purpose ARM operating ancillary systems like radars for adaptive cruise control, inside cameras, etc.

@philip @SwiftOnSecurity I guess it depends on what you consider "necessary". What's the core functionality? What's the market differentiator? What are the alternatives that wouldn't increase the cost of the vehicle itself, or its R&D significantly?

There are well-established benefits to be had re-using exiting tooling at manufacturing scale.

@jab01701mid @SwiftOnSecurity Remember ARM is an architecture not an implementation. There are a lot of ARM devices out there can do useful things for a fraction of a watt on a sliver of silicon. Not all of them have to be multicore big+LITTLE monsters that power phones, tablets, etc.
