I recommend using precision magnets to manipulate the individual bits in your RAM and write programs in raw machine code. It's really hard to get the hang of, but once you master it, people like >>5 can't be snobs to you.

That or you can ignore them and learn in whichever way helps you stay motivated to keep practicing, which usually isn't low level programming now that there are perfectly good alternatives that are much easier to work with.

C# is also what the Unity game engine uses, which might be worth looking into if you're interested in making games.
