I'm here brother! Low level for life!!! C/C++/weird bytecodes interpreted by FW. They don't give us the love like they used to, but can't build/optimize/secure/debug systems without us. Employers are leaving a lot of performance on the table and they don't even know why. I feel bad that we are not training the next generation, but at least I will be gainfully employed until I die.

All performance discussions at my employer are at the upper layers of the stack ("hey look I'm using char vs. string in this C# method, 0.15% improvement!"), while nobody is looking at the lower layers where the real improvements can be made and benefit all platforms.
