You get the same result from scraping job postings: https://www.devjobsscanner.com/blog/top-8-most-demanded-prog...

    1. JS/TS (note these two are collapsed)
    2. Python
    3. Java
    4. C#
So now you have two data points that align and are completely independent measuring two different things (one self reported, one based on employer job postings).

I'd say it's consistent and reliable?

It's not like people use StackOverflow because it's written in C#; people use StackOverflow because Google points us there.
