More languages, maybe Assembly

I also study computer security and it would be great if they put a course on a language like Assembly. Who would you like?

x86_64 would be the most useable but since people are here to learn I think RISC would be the better option. Because it has a tiny and quite easy instruction set.

I also think it would be fine like that because in the past and tried with assembly to do some little things and only in the records I get lost

But most people here will not use risc anywhere. Teaching the general low level parts of a cpu and how they interact together would be a better option in my opinion instead of learning how to manipulate a certain one.

Most people in general won't use assembly. But since it a whole new way of programming for most people, it would be better to be introduced to a simple language even if it's useless (at least right now). I agree that there should be some low level courses here though.

Maybe both at the same time? Teaching the components, how they interact, and the instructions that make them interact. I'd totally be in to that course. Ben Eater has a series of videos in youtube teaching just that.

+1, I approve behind x86 and x86_64 assembly.
