This argument of LLMs vs manual coding being compared to higher level languages vs assembly really never holds well. To be honest people who know assembly are still definitely in demand for various open source projects as well as proprietary codebases in companies like within embedded systems, linux development, compiler engineering, etc. Whereas LLMs are a whole new class of problems and discussions with very little to almost no similarities

Is this for technical books/textbooks?

I don't think its just, there's also the fact that if you're working with c or cpp or any systems level language, you typically do know how to read assembly because you've stumbled upon it for some reason, and if you're writing low level programs (which is typically what these languages are used for) you will definitely at some point need to know to read assembly and maybe even write some. But with LLMs the entire field has shifted. You don't need to know anything to write any language and you don't even need to have high level computer science knowledge nowadays to get something that works and the world increasingly just seems to want something that works.

well neither does C or zig right? but zig and odin do offer defer, which should be good enough while maintaining simplicity right?

Any reasons for not using odin? It seems great for gamedev

I'm a programmer, currently pursuing a bachelor's in computer science and I'd like to start blogging to share my thoughts and experiences about various topics, not just programming. But in case of technical topics, how do I get over the fact that I'm not good enough or experienced enough to write about that particular topic? In general how do I get started writing blogs (not asking about the...

This project was inspired by a course offered by my university about the theory of computation. This got me interested in automata and other such machines and I wanted to play around and prototype with them. Although the project is still in a very immature state, I'd like to get suggestions about possible improvements and other ideas.
Thank you.

I'm working on a pixel art editor written in C++ with SDL2 and I'm looking for people who can contribute to this project. Please do keep in mind that, the project is very immature and doesn't have a proper name yet and things like that but the main focus for now is getting the first functional version out. Those who are interested can join the discord: https://discord.gg/2ZZPjT2R
