I'll be interested to see how this trend goes when they FINALLY pull the plug on Python 2.7 and everyone who's been kicking the can down the road for the better part of a decade finally has to figure out which third-party libraries are breaking.
Python is better for some things, Go better for others. Python makes a good first language; Go does not. That affects numbers, too. Go apps are MUCH simpler to deploy than Java or C# or Python apps, but that's going to matter more for enterprise users with a good release process than hobbyists or business users whose deploy is "scp a bunch of files over and reboot", which is more than you'd think, sadly. I don't trust popularity metrics that treat vector quantities as scalars. I'm not going to lose much sleep over this. - Dave > On Jan 15, 2020, at 8:16 PM, Liam <networkimp...@gmail.com> wrote: > > That could affect the level of a term, but wouldn't impact its trend much. > Trends are the important insight of this graph. > > On Wednesday, January 15, 2020 at 2:58:31 PM UTC-8, Robert Engels wrote: > > Please look deeper into how these "trends" are calculated. > > For example, if everyone that uses product Y can't figure out how feature X > works, and they search for it.
