Actually back in 2012 Java wasn't that popular. Here's the language stats for the 200 teams 1.5 years ago:
Ruby 28.4%
Python 27.5%
Clojure 10.1%
Java 9.2%
CoffeeScript 8.3%
Haskell 6.4%
JavaScript 5.5%
Scala 1.8%
Go 1.8%
Groovy 0.9%
This year Java rise and Ruby's drop are quite obvious when compared to the old stats.
