I played around with 6502 assembly back around 1985-86 while in high school and just went “nope, nope, nope!” 😂 I am really glad that there are folks out there that DO want to dig down at that level though and build it into the compilers that we get to use every day so a HUGE thank you to those folks! 🙇🏻‍♂
