- The text claims to be geared towards beginners, but doesn’t explain what a register is.

- “you are left with an Executable and Linkable Format file (Elf) which is the Linux equivalent of a .exe file” indicates the text is geared towards people who know about execution formats, possibly even Windows users who are.

- “.section .text is where our code will live”, for beginners, needs to explain what sections are and needs a remark that it’s weird that the section named “text” doesn’t contain text, but code. At a very minimum, it should say the reader will have to accept that that magic incantation is needed for now, and that more info will follow.

- the text doesn’t say why you need both ”global _start” and ”_start:”. It does introduce labels, but that’s many lines after using the first one.
