I have noticed that in most circles I have communicate with (I started around 2000), abstractions are welcomed (within limits), while in the embedded domain, the feel with the hardware is appreciated more. There seems to be a scale ranging from bare metal to functional programming.

It would be an interesting exercise to see which concepts make code more expressive for you, and which for me, and if there are certain 'clusters' of developers that benefit from the same kind of style. Probably there are some studies about it already - I'll have to look around.
