.@tomdale @kellabyte I don't know that I completely agree. Pointer math is still one of those acid tests of good programmers.
@KCombinator beyond that, you can implement constant time primitives using asm! too

@bascule suppose your compiler translate it to an instruction that runs in HW? Hard to trace down that far. -
@KCombinator it's architecture-specific assembly. The compiler can't molest it -
@bascule for example, offloading AES to a crypto accelerator -
@bascule sure, like that, but God knows what Intel and AMD and whoever else are going to put in microcodes
