One of the better articles I've read on the 1201 and 1202 alarms.

Some fascinating detail there.
And still amazes me what they could write in terms of code given the
hardware.

Though, as the article points out, since it was dedicated it could be
optimized for just what it needed to be.

Still, pretty amazing.

Led me to the IEEE articles on Apollo 13.

future guitar god of the human genome: an allele with undiscovered
virtuosity, currently soloing in obscurity in Mom's garage.
