Why do you think so? I assume that writing the same piece of code in assembly would take more than twice as long (conservative estimate) if you do the same in high level languages without much benefit. Can you elaborate your opinion a bit more as I am curious. I have been wanting to get into learning assembly but just cant seem to do it as high level languages are so easy to code in and want to know if anyone really uses assembly nowadays. |

Taking more time to code, even duplicate some code paths for major ISAs is saner than to depend on the planned obsolescence of grotesquely and absurdely massive compilers and many computer language syntaxes. See that as short term thinking vs long term thinking.
You would find some kind of middle ground when combining those with high level scripting languages.
Think about a world where many code paths are available in risc-v assembly, with risc-v written python-like interpreters.
