Same here. Assembly is a little too high level for me. I don’t like the assembler guessing what I meant. I like telling processors exactly what to do.
Honestly, modern CISC processors are also a little high level if you think about it. I don’t want the processor guessing what I meant to tell it. I like telling them exactly what to do.
Are you seriously trying to equate “I don’t know which instructions this code is using” to “I copied code I don’t understand”? Are you seriously trying to say that someone who doesn’t know how to write x = a + b in assembly doesn’t understand that code?
So you code everything in Assembly from scratch?
No I just read the stack overflow guy’s explanation and the other small comments around and they explain it.

I don’t understand Assembly. Straight up binary only for me.

In what world is assembly more readable or easier to understand?

x = a + bin assembly doesn’t understand that code?No, they’re pointing out that it’s a little silly to expect everyone to understand each and every later of abstraction fully before deploying code.
