Assembly is awesome! It's the most honest programming language. tbh though it's a lot of trouble, so if someone's coding in assembly when they don't need to then they could have some personality imbalance, which could be grounds for distrust.

From my point of view trust has nothing to do with the programming language an individual uses.

Therefore I'll have to answer this question with a classic "It depends™".

There's basically no reason to nowadays but depends what you're doing. Even if you're doing OS dev, you don't really need to nowadays as on a UEFI-based system the firmware does all the stuff you'd need to do in assembly for you anyway. So unless you're writing an OS for BIOS-based computers, you're probably a bit crazy in which case no. Otherwise, would still probably considerr them trustworthy.

well I certainly don't have to worry about my girl running off with them 🤓

no, I had to do it at uni and it was a traumatic experience

No clue what that means
