I think there is nothing more beautiful than assembly code when it comes to programming. It has that alien/sci-fi look, yet you wrote it and it works.
Programming in general is also like detective work because of the amount of research you have to do when it comes to protocols and API's, not to mention debugging. And the satisfaction you get of finally having a correctly working piece of software.
But really, it's all about coding.
