Assembly gang unite against C-wannabees ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ

Unless you're analyzing what microcode is doing with it, assembly is just hiding how things really work, too. Good engineers use early 1990s computers so that they can fully understand what's going on, and never have to trust anyone else to correctly do anything.

If by "real engineers" you mean the posers who do not work directly with the underlying analog waveforms that approximate digital logic, then I suppose you have a point.
