It's weird feeling surrounded by web programmers who think Python and Javascript are the lowest you'd ever want to go.
C++ is annoyingly high-level if you are trying to write code to go in a flash chip. The code starts running at a specific address at soon as the CPU starts. There is no OS unless your code implements one. There is no C++ library unless you port one.
