My understanding is that flushing all cache and other state on every thread/process context switch has a big performance impact.

I'm not too clear on how one would implement a state machine without "spreading the transitions everywhere". Can you share a link to some example code showing the format you prefer? Typically, we'd see the code that impl

State machines are known for a predilection to use `goto` extensively, but that does not make them 'spaghetti code'. A state machine is, in fact, a well-understood method of applying structure to spaghetti.

Yes, but PDF doesn't embed the PostScript language (which is basically Forth). Acrobat Reader's Turing completeness comes from weird machines. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weird_machine

Those easily-detached non-locking barrel jacks for power are definitely the weak point of guitar pedal design.
