This just means you haven&#x27;t met enough people. You probably met some people who worked on embedded systems where they only need to use a simple set of instructions predefined by the device. But imagine doing that for your laptop. Personally I learned assembly when I was into hacking operating systems (not as in the diluted &#x27;hacker&#x27; notion people throw around nowadays for merely being able to write a simple html code, but as in actual &#x27;hacking&#x27; to make the OS work in ways its designer had not intended) and from my experience it is the farthest thing possible from being simple. Teaching 14 year olds to write assembly code? Read up on my analogy above.
