I put this on my Facebook, and didn't ahve to wait an hour to get an angry, fact-free reply from one of my Texas T-bagger friends.

I like this as much for the stick-figure aided technique as the actual contnet ... though both seem true and effective as best I can tell.

According to the TIOBE Programming Community Index for April 2010 the C programming language is back on top.
I don't know why this surprises me... I guess with all the advantages to OO programming I am just a little amazed that C is on top. I guess I should be happy since I spend 90% of my time writing in C. Also note that if you add C and C++ together then they totally squash everything else on the list.
After more than 4 years C is back at position number 1 in the TIOBE index. The scores for C have been pretty constant through the years, varying between the 15% and 20% market share for almost 10 years. So the main reason for C's number 1 position is not C's uprise, but the decline of its competitor Java. Java has a long-term downward trend. It is losing ground to other languages running on the JVM. An example of such a language is JavaFX script that is now approaching the top 20.
