Personal bests

gollark: e.g. you probably wouldn't just go for C, if you wanted to avoid being caught.
gollark: You can't infer much from language choice as people will obviously try and spoof that.
gollark: Often you can *write* a thing in a basic obvious way, but *read* code doing it in a fancy exotic way.
gollark: Sometimes, yes.
gollark: Perhaps. This would be somewhat problematic though, given that you'd have to know all the languages in use to do it well.
