A URL with specific content is just another thing that now needs to be maintained along with the code and failure modes.

The court's opinion is basically that once the criminal complaint is resolved and the investigation is terminated, the gov't has no reason to hold the property and it must be returned. If it takes them a few days or weeks to get the stuff out of inventory and coordinate the return that's fine, but they can't continue holding it just because they feel like it.
Small uC is almost entirely about peripherals and RP2040 and RP2350 barely have any peripherals worth talking about.
It's always a weird strategy to me. Rasp. Pi foundation makes a bare bones no-frills chip (most models missing even Flash, fortunately RP2354 has Flash finally) in a field where processing power is not the focus.
MPUs like SAMA5D27 are sub $10 and Linux capable and are still a bad Processing Power per $$$ point because Rasp Pi 5 exists which is bad because AMD Epic exists. If we go down the processing power chain, we simply end up in Server Land.
The traditional use of uCs is to simplify circuit design by having one chip do 90% of any given project. Running BLDC motors? STM32 has BLDC motor uC that handles the 250V or 600V needed. (EDIT: STSPIN32F0602)
You don't need much more than a Cortex-M0+ to drive BLDC either, so all the extra processing power of RP2350 is wasted.

RP2350 is very MPU-ish to me. It requires additional components and reviewers who love it praise features like PSRAM compatibility and talk about how Flash is cheap anyway.
But that ignores that your typical uC doesn't need any external anything aside from maybe Xtals for communication.
The flash is QSPI, so its not really on die flash with a real flash controller. There is some QSPI cache but it’s really a band-aid solution to not having the real thing. People around the net don't seem to understand the difference and it can be very misleading.
He mentions Jetbrains let you do this. I do it in vscode using the TODO Highlight extension.

It's the only chip manufacturer "left" in the US. The argument is national security: the US expects China to invade Taiwan and this will kill TSMC in the process.
Whether this will happen or not can be debated, but this is what the government expects.
