> It's a self selecting survey

I feel like I have to point this out every year, and it's one of the most important things to keep in mind about this survey. A true survey would randomly select developers from the global developer population at large.




Indeed. I always wonder if programmers smarter than me don't go on SO as much as I do and therefore don't participate in the survey. Maybe more people are using Haskell than reported. :-P


The age is skewed heavily to younger programmers, so your hunch has merit.
