• Real software engineers like writing their own compilers, preferably in PROLOG (they also like writing them in unimplemented languages, but it turns out to be difficult to actually RUN these).
• If it doesn't have recursive function calls, Real Software Engineers don't program in it.
• Real software engineers don't program in assembler. They become queasy at the very thought.
• Real software engineers don't write in ADA, because the standards bodies have not quite decided on a formal spec yet.
