There are tens of thousands of programming languages, probably millions if you consider cs students personal hobby languages but 99.9% of us are compiling for either ARM or x86 and no matter how smart the higher level is you're still going to get problems like spectre and meltdown ruining your perfect code, then there are problems in the silicon itself like cosmic rays and quantum tunnelling.
