7-post debate with @SebAaltonen + @Nerfoxingaround. NOTimothyLottes:
back in the day wrote DOS extender (32-bit mode), Sound Blaster drivers,
VGA interface, UI + audio synth + sequencer/editor, all in assembly,
dead easy - a lot easier than bringing up a triangle in Vulkan.
Nothing complex about ASM with a good macro preprocessor; easier than
HLLs because you know exactly what you get; interrupts and syscalls
are easy. The mess came later when systems forced C ABI library
interfaces with their stacks and junk - then C++ made it worse.
'Pure ASM is easy, its interfacing with the bloat world that got
hard.' Philosophical backbone of his single-file-C / no-debugger
lifestyle.
