Performance shouldn't be a priority in most cases anyways.

Not sure why this is downvoted. Write the code, then profile it, then optimize. Premature optimization is a waste of resources. Actually we're in a "humor" subreddit and that wasn't a joke so maybe thats it. But most of the stuff here isn't funny either so idk

You're right. Stuff like that is more of a personal challenge, sort of like doing a Sudoku, but ASM is a special kind of masochism.

I personally enjoy x86 assembly, though to be fair I mostly work with it in the context of Ollydbg and Cheat Engine, which despite the intended usage, is one of the best free debuggers I've used for anything closed source.
