Writing Win32 programs in assembly was a niche in the late-90s. This post inspired me to do some googling for a project I was familiar with back then and discovered the author has brought it back to life at https://github.com/ThomasJaeger/VisualMASM.

WorkOS
The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

Sure. You'll see it very often in codec implementations. From rav1e, a fast AV1 encoder mostly written in Rust: https://github.com/xiph/rav1e/tree/master/src/x86
Large portions of the algorithm have been translated into assembly for ARM and x86. Shaving even a couple percent off something like motion compensation search will add up to meaningful gains.
Or the current reference implementation of JPEG: https://github.com/libjpeg-turbo/libjpeg-turbo/tree/main/sim...

Yeah. I'm going to be helping to work on expanding CI for OpenBlas and have been diving into this stuff lately. See the discussion in this closed OpenBlas issue gh-1968 [0] for instance. OpenBlas's Skylake kernels do rely on intrinsics [1] for compilers that support them, but there's a wide range of architectures to support, and when hand-tuned assembly kernels work better, that's what are used. For example, [2].

pgubook-macos-x86-64
Programs from the "Programming from the Ground Up 1.0" book ported to macOS (XNU kernel) and x86_64
https://github.com/lmartinho/pgubook-macos-x86-64
Seems very handy, since most assembly tutorials nowadays are Windows/Linux-specific.

Doing it locally is better, for mine.
