Really? It was required when I was in college. We did MIPS, x86, and PIC.
I like it because there’s no mysterious things happening to your bits. Every line is an instruction executed. You control the machine. It’s power. It gives you power over the machines.
I went to college for Microbiology and became a programmer on my own after, so nope, never written a single line in assembly and never thought of checking it out either. Just never really crossed my mind. I might start messing with it soon.
I’ve never written a single line of code in assembly, and I’m now curious

I… Don’t recommend it. Rust if anything.
It’s a neat party trick? Helps you understand how a processor works? But for anything modern, it’s way more work than it’s worth.
