Steven Hugg, known as @8bitworkshop, is probably a familiar name to anyone who deals more or less seriously with 8-bit systems and knows how to use Google's search bar.
Sooner or later, one inevitably comes across Steven's 8bitworkshop. Occasionally, Steven surprises with a fresh and interesting article on a topic that might not have been on your radar. This was the case recently with the subject of C compilers and 8-bit systems.
Does it even make sense? The limited address space and thus memory, the minimalistic stack, and all the other limitations of 8-bit processors make the use of a C compiler at least initially questionable.
In Problems with C and 8bits, Steven delves into these very challenges and comes to some surprising conclusions.
A great read for a few quiet minutes.
