Where does he even get money from? A quick Google suggests Mathematica is used by approximately no one. Some kinda sweetheart university licensing deal?

- coldtea 5y agoNo, it's just that some people are not as good at quick Google searches as they think.
- projectileboy 5y agoMathematica has been pervasive in the scientific and engineering community for about 30 years (although becoming less so as more people use Jupyter, R, and other solutions).

- frazbin 5y agoalso, on Linkedin: 1500 postings for mathematica, 150,000 postings for MATLAB? Don't get me wrong I use a lot of dead software too, it gets things done. Just saying, Mathematica might be a bit less Apple, and a bit more Amiga, at this point.

- rexpress 5y agoFor context, picking on Clojure because it too is a nice, niche language, https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?date=all&geo=US&q=%2Fm%2F0d2jd,%2Fm%2F03yb8hb https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?date=all&geo=US&q=%... But in fact the long term decline Google Trends gives for Mathematica and Clojure also shows for plenty of other languages, including mainstream ones such as JavaScript and Java. I'm not sure what the explanation is, but I'd be wary of relying on Google Trends to make predictions about the life expectancy of any particular language.
