wait, what's wrong with hand soldering and bitwise arithmetic? hand soldering is still of very much practical utility for building prototypes, small production batches, electronics repair... Bitwise arithmetic... seriously? tell that to an embedded developer or anyone who works with low-level stuff.

Nothing is wrong with them if 1) you have a specifically suited, niche problem and you understand the complexities and tradeoffs of the tool OR 2) it's not a critical requirement to solve the problem using modern, efficient tools AND you want to use something else for fun or learning or whatever.

If this isn't the case, stay away.

Either you're just trolling at this point OR you haven't the slightest idea of what you're talking about.
