In 3,000 years, I'd love to see what archeologists have to say about our code (assuming any of it survives, which IMHO is a long shot):

"Ancient engineers used text editors to write machine language."

"But how did they construct network packets?"

"With Emacs macros. And purification rituals involving Python."

"No way. It had to have been aliens."
