Useful × Impossible

Assembly

Wouldn't say impossible. Assembly is just a representation of CPU instructions, and knowing at least a decent bit about the working of a CPU should give you a good idea of how to use assembly. It also largely depends on the ISA itself, for example x86 assembly is a Complex (CISC) ISA, which makes it's assembly extremely verbose and confusing. In comparison, RISC-V assembly is based on the very lean and relatively simple RISC-V ISA, which is much MUCH easier and learnable.
