How do people who do things like this - get the time to do it? Did he do it in his personal time with or without a job? If anyone else does something like this - can you give your insights. I would love to be able to do something like this.

Everyone does something with their time. The neighbor is always taking his motorcycle apart and putting it back together. Aunt Liz paints. I sit on the couch and stare at the TV. I'm sure if your thing is writing assembly tutorials, you can turn those other activities down to make room.

I'm not saying this is not awesome, but it's pretty much what any undergrad computer architecture course will teach you.

It should be pretty standard for CS undergrads to be at least familiar with some ISA.

edit: undergrand -> undergrad

PS: I highly recommend Patterson and Hennessy Computer Organization and Architecture (pick the Arm, RISCV or MIPS edition... any will do) to actually learn about all these things and more.

Back in 2008 I would hang out in the wiihomebrew irc channels and some of the people in there were 15 or 16 year olds just figuring out how this works on their own after/instead of doing homework.

Some of them have gone on to be names you've heard of.

I have time for stuff like this while working... Can not cast some wizardry to magically create more work for myself
