Hard disagree. HN tends to lean toward the browser-programmer crowd, but it's a big world out there, and there are lots of very small computers that don't run a browser. I would go so far as to say that assembly languages in general are a bit like lisps in general: learn one, and even if you never use it, you'll be a better programmer in other languages.
