I am considered an "an epic low-level hacker"...

[Sebbyastian]

... yet I have never worked with anything considered "low-level". I've never programmed any embedded devices, nor have I written code or committed to projects that distinguish between real and protected mode, etc.

It may be a note of nit-pickery, but C is not a low-level programming language. It may not be as high level as Python, but it's a machine-independent third generation programming language, grouped along-side C++, C# and Java just to name a few.

Perhaps you could come up with a more accurate description for a C programmer?

Please make a suggestion and I'd be happy to incorporate it!

[Sebbyastian]

I'd like to throw C-literate on the table.

[Sebbyastian]

C-man, perhaps? I guess that's a bit too gender charged.

Maybe "system hacker" since C is a system programming language.
