"human legible"

Have you looked at a punch card? I like some assembly, but the punch card is just dots. They blur together until all you see are holes and more holes and structure has lost all meaning.

So, do you work with minimum spec hardware, or are you just a masochist?

Por que no los DOS? (Pun intended)

But really it's been two things. I've had to adapt algorithms to some extremely ancient hardware that had another twenty years planned service, and I've had to work on robot operating systems where timing of operations is extremely important

DOS? That's ancient technology! Who still uses that relic!? Lol.
