This is an inane comment, there's TONS of new code being written in it, probably more than any other language. Outside the HN bubble of Rust/Draco/OCaml companies tend to stick with the Java/JS/Ruby/C# languages.
- majewsky 6y ago> there's TONS of new code being written in [Java], probably more than any other language Nah, it's a pretty safe bet that the language with the most new code being written is JavaScript. If it weren't JavaScript, I'd actually guess Excel next. (Okay, maybe not in terms of LOC, but certainly in number of applications.)
- krzyk 6y agoJava and Javascript are head to head on that one, if you look at any data on the web. (and Java is nice to work with, mature environment, quite opposite of Javscript). With Python or C++ being next. But they don't count Excel :)
