I guess programming languages don't really encourage using bit wise operations.
On top of it, it doesn't have many advantages. It takes much less memory, but takes more lines to write, while on the hardware, it's the opposite: more memory, not so fast processors.
What always bugged me, is that there are no real programming facilities to take advantages of bits, like encoding many variable in on 32 bit integer variable.
