Ask HN: Do you use either C# or Java in your professional work?

Full-time .NET developer (doing all sorts of freelance jobs; ASP.NET, Xamarin, etc.). I think you'll find that if you look outside the silicon valley bubble, C# and Java are actually dominating the market and you won't get very far trying to find a Haskell/Rust/Go job.

This is very much true in experience as a developer in Raleigh, NC.

The bigs ones are Java, C#, JavaScript (usually Angular, and a handful of Node.js jobs) in my area. Followed by Ruby. Python is usually listed as a nice to know and there are also a handful of Python jobs around. Go is started get get listed as a "nice to know language" in a handful of jobs. It's extremely rare to see a job mentioning Haskell and I can't say I've ever seen a job looking for somebody who knows Rust.

In RTP, since that's where I am:

I moved from Python to JavaScript a few years ago primarily because the market just isn't there locally.
