[@g33xzi11a]

I dunno. As a subpar programmer, I definitely gravitated toward assembly when I used it and away from Python which I actually learned after C and Java. Assembly was so specific. The rules were clear. You just had to figure out how to configure the small number of pieces to build what you wanted. Python feels so ambiguous and there’s always this nagging concern that you’re doing something the wrong way or that there’s a function out there that you just haven’t been exposed to an it makes everything you made look ridiculous. I’ve used Python more than any other language and I feel like i know basically nothing about it. It doesn’t help that staying up to date on new and updated libraries and modules is incredibly boring, especially if you ever have to get into implementation details. Granted assembly is obviously too low level to do anything really interesting by actually writing in it, but I always felt really comfortable in assembly. It was just a chill puzzle game.
