Programming is no longer a lucrative career. Salaries keep decreasing every year and some languages now pay less than the average wage for all jobs in America. Garbagemen are making more money than programmers now.
>>106833308It was never supposed to be lucrative, it's just grunt work. There's a reason we call you code monkeys and Pajeets/AI are replacing you so easily.
>ADA>$42kWhat the fuck is the Pentagon doing, lmao
>>106833308> Html/css> PowershellThank you for reminding me this board is for retarded sub 80IQ niggers who have never had a proper software engineering job
Imagine being forced to write in Powershell as a job
>>106833308the chart needs to label how many responses each language had to be interesting
Is this a survey of H1Bs?Who is making less than $100k in 2025?
>>106833308Who tf uses prolog in a job and why are they getting paid $43k?Is it just community college math faculty or what??
>>106833308Salaries are decreasing because they're replacing talented programmers with low skill jeets. It's inevitably all going to come crashing down. Hopefully soon, because the people who could rebuild it are reaching retirement age.
>>106833308>Ruby pays more than CYeah, this is bait. It has to be.
>>106834280>C: embedded monkeys in sweatshops>Ruby: senior latte and IPA drinkers maintaining big $$ legacy codebasesRuby is a new COBOL, in a sense more so than Java.Ruby being just below Elixir and Clojure makes sense.
>>106833308Graph omits how many jobs there are using that language in total. That kinda matters.
>>106833308>bash/shell above most of the boardhuh?what is the source of this graph? doesn't that seem a bit ridiculous?
>>106833308>>106834853 (me)ok, i guess it includes worldwide salarieshttps://www.statista.com/statistics/1483825/top-paying-technologies-among-developers-globally/so op is just straight up baiting
