I’ve been doing async non-blocking code for decades, but this is the first time I e seen that word used? I’m assume you’re meaning something like one big ass select!() or is this something else?

> IMO one of the big reasons Arduino stayed firmly hobbyist tier is because it was almost entirely stuck in a single-threaded blocking mindset and everything kind of fell apart as soon as you had to do two things at once.

This. Having to do something like this recently, in C, was not fun and end up writing your own event management layer (and if you’re me, poorly).
