@givdb5513 The answer you're looking for is computer sciences. If you really want to work at low level you need proper knowledge of how memory and CPU work, and this is what computer sciences is. Now of you want my honest answer: Why bother ? You've spent so many years practically wasting your time because there was nothing productive to come out of the other end. Just pick a higher level language and commit to making projects in your free time. The more challenges you'll face, the more you'll have to learn. It's not like time is against you anyway, clearly you're past trying to become employable so don't speedrun the process, have fun and enjoy the ride instead.

@givdb5513 The reason why the languages you listed "assume your code is right" isn't because of OPP, it's because those are high level language. Low level languages mean you communicate with the hardware directly while high level languages mean there is an abstraction which make the communication more verbose and human interpretable. Both achieve the same thing; giving instructions to the computer. The only difference is one let the dev to fine-tune how these instructions will be performed and the other do it by itself. In other words, you can write any code at both low level or high level but should prefer low level languages when performances is an important part of the software (like physics/rendering engines, AI, robotics, IoT, satellites, missiles, etc...).

@givdb5513 Alright when someone pretends to know everything about computer programming and say "C isn't low level" in the same comment it's not even worth entertaining. Low level doesn't mean you code in 1s and 0s, it means there is no memory management and garbage collection so you need to handle memory allocation and dispose of unused objects. I tried to help and anyone reading my replies would see it was a friendly advice. Only you and you immense ego saw an attack in it.
