> I blame mostly the language rather then the level. C++ is just a pain in the ass... With C++ you can hit crashes and not know where it even came from, this is much more rare in higher level languages.

Yep, it's definitely the language. You can do low-level programming with Rust and pretty much never have this problem (never say never, but it's certainly not a common issue).

Unfortunate that as of right now, most low level stuff is basically C++.
