May I write to you? From time to time I'll send you a SIGAVDI newsletter with a few handpicked links, an update on what I've published lately, and some reflections at the intersection of code and life. Replies go directly to me, and I do my best to respond to every single one.
I learned Assembler in College and I absolutely loved it! I completely agree that everyone should learn Assembler. For me “Magic” was replaced by “Understanding”.
Good times!
