To add to all the other reasons I love AVRs (cheap, featureful, good development tools, beautiful assembly language), they are now also to be considered almost impossibly resilient: I just made a mistake and reverse biased an ATTiny13 micro (swapped Power and Ground wires), causing it to heat up until it was too hot to touch… I just popped it back in the programmer after it cooled down, and it is completely fine. Win, atmel, win.

…it is also true that in modern times the term “pornography” connotes mediocrity, commercialism, and certain strict rules of narration. Obscenity must be mated with banality because every kind of aesthetic enjoyment has to be replaced by simple sexual stimulation which demands the traditional word for direct action on the patient.
