1. Obscure languages. I just talked to an AS/400 programmer that knows RPG, and has had a job for the last decade being "the RPG" programmer, because the Java people don't want to touch it. He even moved away from Seattle, but they didn't want to lose him, so they let him work remotely. 2.

This seems to suggest that C coders are on the rise professionally, which makes them harder to get. Java has only a 0.88% growth rate, which means the market is pretty saturated with them. I moved from C++ to python years ago, and never really looked back. But based upon this, I think it's time to put some C back in my skill set.
