I encourage you to perform your own research. Citing hipster surveys on a beginners' help site has not earned you a passing grade.

Atleast I cited data (there is no reason to sling insults towards the data either). If I'm so wrong, it should be easy to disprove with less biased data from a "professional non-hipster website".

It is not my task in life to disprove my own opinions formed from available data either. If you want to change minds, don't ask others to "do the research yourself", that's just rude.

You personally demonstrate the need to discount actively-misleading data. What's next, Tiobe? If you don't check your own fond biases, who do you expect to perform the service for you? "Strangers on HN, for free", really?

Minds are responsible for their own evolution. Clues are taken or ignored according to personal preference.

You wrote it yourself, Clues taken.

You haven't delivered clues, only anecdotes.

And in terms of my own biases, I only want a solid study with a decent sample size (~5000 shouldn't be an issue on this topic)
