I have always liked the idea of assembly languages being able to program so close to machine speed.
But working with assembly has always felt like trying to build a mansion with what was left over after several Category 5 hurricanes flattened an area… and with zero power tools and machinery, to boot. Just hand tools and no supplies except that which you can salvage.
I get the frustration. However, the satisfaction to build something this way weighed always bigger when the project was completed and working. At least for me.
