Python & Java

[hho]

Javascript?

[Fudge]

Kotlin being top 3 does imply the fall of Java

[Ruckus]

@Fudge How so?

[sksk]

the fall of Java started already few years ago

[sksk]

everyone i know moved to Go

[Fudge]

No one I know has ever heard of Go 😉

[sksk]

what is the demographic of your entourage ? junior/senior ?

[Fudge]

Quite senior not accurate, there is quite a bit of Junior people as well

[Fudge]

My 'entourage' is specifically Israeli though which means 2-3 years delay

[Ruckus]

Man, if I had a dollar for every time I heard "Java is dead, everybody switched to <insert language of choice here>".

[sksk]

it is not dead, it is just declining, new gen of developpers won't think about Java to build their stuff

[Ruckus]

They've been saying that for two decades now

[sksk]

yeah but following new tech trends, java just doesn't fit

[sksk]

for machine learning for example, no java

[sksk]

server less projects, no java

[Ruckus]

Neither of those are true

Keep in mind that github data only correlates with open source, a very self-filtering dataset.

[sksk]

yeah, but it is interesting to see the difference with what's being taught at schools, and data we see in the wild

I think Stanford recently switched to JS from Java
