My intent was to claim that the industry care about keeping up to date with things, as can be demonstrated by the evolution of adopted languages. Not
that they care about Jigsaw per-se.

According to the evolution of adopted languages, Java, C, C# and ObjC (which BTW has reached the 3rd position according to Tiobe) are the ones adopted by the industry. That is, there has been no evolution of the top languages in fifteen years and clearly Scala, Roby, Python and what else are still irrelevant. ObcJ is a different story, but its percentage is more related to the community use (many small developers) than the industry.

Trends are slowly changing, but at this pace many years will be needed to change the scenario. And I think Tiobe and the available statistics in general are strongly biased on the community trends, while the industry is a different thing.


(Given that I'm spot on with Kevin about the reduction of the technical debt, but it's another story).
