    The “fun” thing about it is that it’s higher level than you think, because the actual chip may do things with branch prediction and pipelining that you can only barely control.

    I remember a university course where we competed on who could have the most performant assembly program for a specific task; everyone tried various variants of loop unrolling to eke out the best performance and guide the processor away from bad branch predictions. I may or may not have hit Ballmer Peak the night before the due date and tried a setup that most others missed, and won the competition by a hair!

    There’s also the incredible joy of seeing https://github.com/chrislgarry/Apollo-11 and quipping “this is a Unix system; I know this!” Knowing how to read the language of how we made it to the moon will never fade in wonder.

    Short answer: yes!
