@otacon239@lemmy.world wrote “Assembly/Binary”, because an Assembly language is basically just a list of aliases (or mnemonics) for the different combinations of 0s and 1s.
For example, HLT (Halt) may translate to 00000001, which is then already what your CPU understands.
Man people actually code in binary? That’s hardcore
They don’t type out the 0s and 1s, no. 😅

Ah I see. That’s interesting thank you.
My favourite childhood game RCT2 was a masterpiece of assembly: https://youtu.be/ESGHKtrlMzs
It’s crazy to me that someone actually took the time to write a whole game in assembly. The skill required to do that is remarkable
