    I bought a PC kit and it said “some assembly required” so I always try to link at least one asm file in my projects.

        Remember before .dlls were a thing and you had to write your own config files for every game that you installed on DOS?

    I was taught assembler in my second year at school

    It’s kind of like construction work

    I have. Mostly on embedded devices that have no OS and you need something very specific.

    … Or that one time i was reverse engineering a console kernel. I wrote arm asm then. Was actually fun to do tbh

      ARM assembly is so lovely to work with compared to the old CISC garbage.

        m68k assembly was my favorite back in the day.

          I love ARM assembly so much that I’m looking at it right now.

        Haha ye. It is super interesting to see all those OS principals and seeing how nintendo implemented them. Stuff i will never forget either and some design patterns i have implemented in my actual job too

    I write assembly for test cases and early setup code. I read far more assembly than I write.
