Why? (asking as somebody who wrote a lot of asm)
- titzer 5y agoI find that I make a lot of mistakes with asm. When you've written hundreds of asm instructions in one change, because of debugging is superlinearly hard, one can easily spend a lot of time debugging. So now I write and commit in small chunks and test repeatedly. This has made me much more efficient by drastically reducing the time searching for where in the hundreds of instructions I've gone wrong.
