TIOBE gets its data by searching for "$LANGUAGE programming" in various search engines, and applying some magical scaling factors.
It's complete nonsense and has no relationship to actual real world usage.
"They take much better photos but since there's no option for a cloud backup even if manually triggered, I'm left with finding a local solution that is always going to be more cumbersome."
Wifi SD cards exist and will let you transfer photos from camera to computer.
Let's compare, shall we?

Personally, I'm on Team Tables here. Maybe in a decade or three this will be practical.
Tell me one thing you do now that you couldn't do on a 32-bit system.
The Apollo moon lander only had 8-12 bit memory.
If you need a 64-bit system to do what we did on far less in the 70s, well, that's a skill issue.
"Preventing police from having lethal force available isn't a real alternative"
Yes it is and you'd better re-read our constitution to show where it in fact is proscribed as a remedy - that removal of one's life without DUE PROCESS is a violation of the constitution.
So disarm the fuckers until they can show they're worthy enough to hold a gun.
Andrew Ferguson is probably sitting in the Epstein files.
I heard FAT12 had it beat for raw performance.
"The issue is that gmail ONLY filters republican political spam"
No it doesn't, I have it filter out ALL political spam.
"Anyone who can't see the blatant hypocrisy is either ignorant, an idiot or is duplicitous."
No, you're just fucking stupid.
As a chronic imgur user from day one, yes imgur will transcode certain formats straight to webp.
"Why the fuck would mileage matter much for the calculations?"
Emitted particulate caused by vehicle degradation over time, more specifically tires, bushings, hoses and wiring, etc.
I drive like a full fucking bat out of hell on some of the hardest mountain desert terrain out there, often with a full load of said mountain both inside and attached to my vehicle (trailer.) I do not go through tires nearly as fast as an EV.
Oh, and most EV drivers do drive like idiots. Bolts, Teslas, i-drives, etc. Almost all of them appear clueless as to even the location of their turn signals.
Bet some of those rankings change
"Hello, Ecuadorian embassy? Yes, I heard about the weird shit with the cat, but listen..."
I'm perpetually mystified how TIOBE is considered to be in any way reputable.
It's just searching for "$LANGUAGE programming" in various engines and applying magic fudge factors.
It's not an indicator of jobs, or activity, or much of anything else really. This is especially obvious with things like Visual Basic showing up weirdly close to the top, and having large spikes, as if there were times when VB suddenly got a huge influx in demand.
VB never even transitioned to 64 bits, it's that old. VB.NET i suppose exists but seems mostly pointless since it all compiles down to CIL anyway. Might as well use C#.
Also possible. OpenAI's models do love their bullet points, and especially having exactly three examples in a list. The catchphrase "math magic" at the end also reeks of GPT-4's didactic blandishment.
It's not so hard to lift yourself by your bootstraps once you're off the ground. -- Daniel B. Luten
