Bro has so much intimacy with Assembly that he sees C as Python 😭

High-level programmers laugh at vibe coders for AI code slop.. then comes the Assembly programmer to remind them of their own slop.

real 😅

Max respect to this boomer, truly the boss level old man in the young's men world. Even has a repo for managing AI agent swarms for engineering workflow. Top of his game.

realllllllllllllll

He’s just larping. Assembly is already a high level language wrt to what the CPU actually does

pretty much depends on how high above the machine code the language is

pls link the full interview. What is this slop of not giving the source?

this is the full video, at least what i saw.

🙏

Naah, having different outputs for different versions of compiler doesn't make compilers non-deterministic. Also, compiler optimization techniques are defined and deterministic. So you can actually micro-manage that behavior so we can consistently create same output with comp.

I don't trust this guy. And don't believe what he says.

Who is the guy with that assembly knowledge? Does he have a YouTube channel?

I'll check.

This argument is weak for me.. A compiler is and always will be a finite state machine. A LLM is not. Or if you do want to still call it a finite state machine it is a astronomical large set of states.. So complex that it simply could not be in any meaniful way cataloged or indexed. Keep in mind that given sufficient memory LLMs outputs can be as unique as guid generation.

Assembly is good, but hard! Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

tuff

Anything beyond punchcards is slop honestly

It’s so cool seeing old men jus being highly skilled in their craft

Like Assembly is obsolete with C, lol

Bro is so passionate about the machiiine and the assembly language. Love to see it 😂

That is why i want to learn asm

it's easier to start by reading and understanding your C code translated to asm

thanks for the tip. this is exactly why I wanna major in CS

You know what makes me appreciate C. Programming in assembly. Dude never programmed a motorolla 68 series processor or worse asked to add features to a mainframe and it shows.

This is nostalgia for him.. Infact , from assembly to now AI writing code , this is too fast an advancement in ones lifetime. Even internet was a giant leap, now we are talking about AGI. Our older generations saw black&white TV converted to Color and that was a wow moment.

This guy's carrier is made out of bullshit takes

Dude inline assembly is how I started back with it. ASCII hex were the days!

bruh i mostly read my C code equivalent in ASM

Memo: C, and actually most compiled languages, just compile your expressions to assembly you would have written by hand. Likewise control flow blocks. Give it up. (And languages like C, C++, Go, and others still let you use assembly if you want.)

There are levels to this.

then he went all in on oop and ruined an industry

can someone explain to this guy he can just ask claude for that since we are living in the 21st centrury?

So much knowledge packed into a 2-minute video. Rare to see something like this nowadays 🚀

Lol, how is it that his view is completely opposite from Linus, could it be that he doesn’t know what he is talking about?

Imagine how much this guy knows. Such a goldmine.

He didn’t trust C so he wrote a tool to fix the output assembly… how do we apply this to AI written code now?

well, python is nothing more than glue for C

Yes he was horrified, because it was horrifying. And pretending most LLM output is anywhere close to language-to-compiler-throughput is being absolutely delusional..

C turned out to be right for coding (I'm assuming) after all the updates and whatever was needed, does that mean that after enough tweaks to AI, it can definitely be used as a coding tool and we'll never have to learn to code again unless you are to be a specialist in debugging?

Turbo C++ and GCC fully supported embedded assembly. I know, because I used it (GCC) when developing Playstation games. Even the more user-friendly macro-assembler is overkill for many tasks.

@Cufe_Haco thoughts on this video?

No surprises! and to make it worse, those who know about the design of modern hardware (ring -3, unintended instruction sets, the creeping use of AI in design of hardware, ...), openly express their shock that these hardware even work!!

Didn't know C-section could mean something so different!

The goat

Nothing beats hand written assembly
