I am not sure how representative the data source is of the global programming community, but I really like his conclusion:
"I’ve been a lifelong Mac and UNIX user, and nearly all of my programming in college and graduate school was centered around Python and R. But I was happy to join a company with a .NET stack, and I’m glad I did- because I loved the team, the product, and the data. I can’t speak for anyone else, but I’m glad I defined myself in terms of what work I wanted to do, and not something I wanted to avoid."

A very good principle.
