No, I can't resist.

vi vs emacs
Easy - vi. (Or, more specifically, Vim, these days.)

C++ (though strictly the correct answer here is 'it depends').

(There is no Vb.net, that's a wrapper on c#)
Not sure I agree with that - while VB.NET and C# are functionally almost identical, they're syntactically very different. Yes, they both compile to the same Common Intermediate Language, for running on the same Common Language Runtime, but that doesn't make either a wrapper of the other. Would you describe all the languages that can be compiled to Java bytecode (e.g. Kotlin, Scala) as just wrappers around Java?
