On: Nobody's just reading your code

[tobr]

Of course! I’m not saying it’s rational. If I had experience hand-writing machine code maybe I would feel the same about that...

[khedoros1 → tobr]

I've done bits of assembly, but I've also studied compilers. They felt less magical to me when I learned some of how they work.

Then again, I'm primarily a C++ developer, so I'm used to the output of my build tools being non-trivial to understand.
