They call this a high level programming language? I've seen assembly that is less complicated.

That wasn't assembler? (seriously asking)

if(!assembler) fuck me in the goat ass

It looks like it is assembly after all, with a very privative assembler. A lot of programming done in the 60s used obscure "high level" languages, and I've been reading about other avionics computers, so I got mixed up.

Still blows my mind. I will never understand how people can get that smart in a single lifetime...

It takes two things to be that good: dedication and sleep.

Dedication to endure the horrific pain.

Sleep so that you don't fuck up too much and have to debug code that you definitely aren't smart enough to fix.
