GitHut – Programming Languages on GitHub
It's what I call an "AHA" piece of statistics.Lots of data right there, and nicely visualised at that, only what it actually means is unfathomable without knowing any broader context.For instance: C++ has the greatest number of opened issues per repository, then comes Rust, then Scala. All right.Does it indicate that they're more tricky than others and hence more bug reports?Or perhaps that projects written in these languages are under more intense scrutiny?Or that people watching these repositories are just more eager to step up and file an issue instead of sulking in silence (a trait of programming culture surrounding these languages)?And so on, and so on.Or it could be one in case of C++, another in case of Rust - since they differ under so many aspects.Wide field for wildest speculations, but no meaningful correlations identified.
