  I would not trust any software in a thing like a car. Custom software not inherently more likely to suck than manufacturer software, which is undoubtedly garbage. (I say this as a former firmware engineer.)

    Don't all recent cars have software of some kind, for things like setting the fuel mixture or adjusting the braking in slick conditions?

      Alas, they do.

    I hate to be the bearer of bad news but cars have been running software for over 40 years now: https://www.gmheritagecenter.com/docs/gm-heritage-archive/historical-brochures/Innovation_and_Technology/GM-Introduces-CCC.pdf https://www.gmheritagecenter.com/docs/gm-heritage-archive/hi...
