Yeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaah no interrupts.
no interrupt HANDLERs. read the wiki page. they have a far more superior way of dealing with interrupts: instead of "oh let's save the context, jump the instructions and oh wait yeah we have to restore it afterwards" resulting in unpredictable latency they dedicate an ENTIRE CORE to handling the event, which waits idle and INSTANTLY responds to the GPIO event.
so it is a far, far superior architecture for dealing with real-time processing because it is quite literally zero latency.
