"I am acutely aware that one never knows what is going on in the other person's head in a conversation" True. So due to that, different people can have different reactions to the same situation.

I've used the XVI32 hex editor for Windows in the past. Written in Delphi. Split pane. Useful app. Free.

Your long, detailed, somewhat scholarly, well researched comment, leads us to think (after consulting several prestigious, highly intelligent, real and artificial professors), that you maybe a suitable candidate for the first PhD program at

Okay, so now life is imitating art? Never knew ;-) No, you are being rude. To the average internet commenter. Or maybe to GPT. ;-) By bringing down either one of them to the level of the other. Unless you meant "average" in the sa

Developing hardware diagnostic utilities can be another area. The kinds of utilities that come built into ROM, or that you run from a CD or USB drive, where you test memory and disk by writing different bit patterns to them, reading them b

Two older assembly language programming books that I had checked out earlier, and thought were good, are ones by Randal Hyde and Paul Carter. Both were for 32 bit assembly, not 64 bit, IIRC. Paul Carter was a professor or lecturer at a US

The Norton Guides were good in their time, too. IIRC, Turbo C, 8086 assembly(?), Clipper, etc. were supported. It was a TSR too, so you could pop it up from any another app by a hotkey.
