Unlikely, since it is illegal.

I don't catch main message of your list. It's the same FUN LIST. Moreover - your list is total cr@p.
C# - industrial language, handy for desktop and server development.
C - mostly for gaming and embedded worlds.
D - perspective language to replace old sh%%t like C.
Period. There is no other languages which reward to live.

lol, you say to stop making fun
and then you call that horrible python crap BEAUTY...
and all the junky useless javascript as AWESOME...
and keep the most actual awesome language (C)... with a title of just 'fast'
yeah thats not something that sane programmers can go with

My favorite programming language is English.
Or did I miss not only the joke but the message?
Actually I'm just a carpenter and I have many hammers.
( except that stupid language Cobol. I saw an article that says it becoming popular again,,,,, sure it is)
Actually I laughed at most of the responses posted on this one.
When did programmers develop such a great sense of humor?

Nah 
Mind you I do know a little of each and respect some others outside the holy trinity (ASM/C/C++) but there are some really rotten tomatoes out there (cough* COBOL cough*), but this goes along the lines of that joke: "...oh we should respect Python programmers in the Linux Kernel community to be more inclusive..."

Sun workstations used to have a desktop background that did this. I don't recall how often it updated. They also had an xphoon background, which showed the moon, in its current phase, complete with earthlight. Also very cool.

You should have:
- a houseplant
- an ex you're not over
- the overwhelming feeling that you're not making as much progress in life as you would have liked
- debt

No comments on #1 and #2 other than amusement, but #4 can be a big contributor to #3.
Debt for anything non-essential is a mistake. Essential is very limited and would include
- moving expenses when a job takes you elsewhere (although some companies will pay for this, especially as new grads have yet to accumulate basements full of junk)
- a serviceable used car for getting to work
- student loans for a degree that is required to help you earn a decent living
Most everything else is non-essential. The more you save, the less you'll be overwhelmed. Unexpected things like your employer going under, or even this coronavirus thing, won't faze you. And if an employer mistreats you, you can give them the finger knowing that you don't have to find something else tomorrow.

A house/mortgage?
And when you want to get a mortgage, a phone subscription and credit card are considered debt too, at least in the Netherlands
Having the possibility to go negative on your bank account as well (even when your balance isn't and has never been negative).
Needless to say not many people are without debt

I haven't given anyone the finger (never burn bridges), but I did quit a job without having a new one and took a week of unpaid leave to boot.
I really didn't want to work there anymore and I think I got that message across

I'm sure this will find disfavor, but a house is just a consumer good, especially when so many housing markets are overvalued, even insanely so. If you like the house and are planning to stay for, say, at least 5 years, then buying it is a consideration. If not, the transaction costs could easily wipe out any gains and more. Having all your net worth tied up in a house is putting all your eggs in one basket. Houses also have maintenance costs, and property taxes in some cities are increasing at loanshark rates because, let's face it, you can't move your house to another jurisdiction.
The experience of many people is that houses always go up in value. With interest rates at historic lows, and with the possibility of economic upheaval continuing, I hope they don't get hurt. Coronavirus was just the pin; various bubbles, inflated by ten years of central bank arseholery, were already waiting to run into one.

And the ignore that it's at best irrelevant (where are you going to live if you sell it for a profit?) and at worse a disaster (when you sell because the family needs more space and find all the bigger ones have increased in "value" at a proportionate rate and your are suddenly miles behind teh curve and way out of your financial depth).
High and rising house prices help only real estate agents, solicitors, and government tax departments ...

So what's the alternative? Rent?
Rent is often more expensive than mortgage except when you pay rent your money is gone forever.
Depends on how long you're going to live in a house, of course, but five years of rent is easily €50,000 down the drain.
If I currently bought a €300,000 house and got that money from the bank and paid that back over 30 years, I'd "only" pay €40,000 in the next five years.
That's a €10,000 difference on the highest interest I can get.
Meanwhile, rent is rising while my interest is not.
Then when I sell my house after five years I probably get €300,000 or more back for it.
This is all very dependent on where you live though.
When you live in a city renting is probably your only option unless you're a millionaire or very lucky.
And rent or buying may be cheaper or more expensive in different countries or even different areas (€300,000 will buy you a box in Amsterdam, but it'll buy you a huge estate in Gelderland, so to speak).
