I'm a bit surprised that Rust is really the top language here. I would have expected the top ranked languages to be nowadays-relatively-unpopular languages with dedicated long-time users, like Lisp, Tcl, Perl, and APL.
Is this weighted somehow by overall popularity?
- generic-husky 4y agoWell the second one is a LISP (Clojure), which isn't really popular (relative to more mainstream languages).
- nerdponx 4y agoThere's probably an additional layer of substantial selection bias here. But maybe that explains the effect in the first place, greybeard Tcl users possibly didn't bother to take the survey while Clojure and Rust evangelists did.
