ASM > everything else

Am I the only one who hates coding in high level languages? I can write all kinds of games and programs in 68k assembler, but I just choke all over C. It just makes more sense to deal with actual memory spaces than to mess around with pointers and libraries and shit. I don't like having to use any code that I didn't write myself.

One could argue that assembly language is simply high level microcode, and you aren't really any closer to hardware than you are by programming in, say, C. If the distance between the earth and the sun represents how close you are to hardware from C, then the distance between the moon and the sun would be assembly. A rather fitting analogy too, since programming in higher level languages is more down to earth than you ASM astronauts :-)
