> Today, hand writing assembly is pretty much stupid on modern CPUs Yup. Explains all that neat hand-written AVX asm code in your video decoder, strcmp() implementation, lzma decompressor, utf8 parser, and the base64 decode logic in your browser. A lot of people put in a lot of hard work so that you can have the cute thought that there is no more reason to write assembly. Many of them wrote your compilers, some of them wrote some of the logic I mentioned above. Quite sure that none of them appreciate being called "pretty much stupid". |
