Exactly, these income comparisons are shallow, for the very reason of wildly contrasting cost of living among each country in the poll. Perhaps this is a video more to the entertainment side of things.

here in my country in Europe, we pay for cars just as much as in USA while my salary is ~6x less than in USA. When I compared utility bills against the monthly salary in IT field in Arkansas and here, they are left with proportionally more money than I am. But true about the healthcare, it sucks a weiner

Honestly the graph needed a capability to sort by blue, red and difference. As it stands, its just sorted by blue and the line indicating difference doesn't mean much. What Fireship said about desired=hyped is one aspect of it. One look at the C# related techs shows C# is like Dota2, the users(devs) of C# heavily admire it because there is far less issues to complain to lower admiration, while other users who never tried are also largely people who either have not heard of C# or thinks it is a Java copycat with worse issues. One can look at Blazor and MAUI mentions too where people barely know about it except C# fellows, who incidentally heavily desires it.

yeah becuase of its subscription pricing.

these surveys are for fun only, they can't check people aren't lying (ya, I earn over $200k a minute doing r34c7 bro, cos state management is my whole day). And they suffer heavily from participation bias (a reason react ++ are at the top of the charts.)

Html wasn’t at the top, that was a subsection of the leaderboard, he was just showing it was higher than php

What? You ever heard of backend?

HTML is not even a programming language!!! How it can be compared to PHP?

@elgoogssie3969 what is a program?

True, it is like measuring your salary by the language you are using the most. English speakers would have much higher salaries than Central Thai speakers (the official language of Thailand).

They should consider normalisign the salaries to PPP (Purchasing Power Parity) and not only absolute values

Qez qaar ujbb

Same, we build on gcp laravel app with millions of requests daily. Frontend is nextjs with react. Of course my salary is not that low to wordpress developers.

@xIcarus227 people getting swayed by statistics imagine HTML CSS being the highest paid programming language

Right now with 8.0+ it's a really nice language. Problem is not php, problem is that is very easy to start with (for beginners) and it leads to lots of bad code. But there is a lot of good code as well xd

PHP is not necessarily bad. It's just that we've been using it for decades and already want something new.

PHP IS DEAD -> Says the community every year, and every year I still see more PHP jobs

you only need is a good self marketing of your expertise on php. gotta convince the people that you can get the job done with php. it's basically marketing.

PHP is great if you use a cool framework. I even see CakePHP doing cool stuff. Laravel is awesome.

@sadik.h119 it was accidental lol. This 3rd rate ass poetry just came out.

One thing this chart doesn't do well is allow you to split the data based on multiple criteria. But you are very right about your point here with Flutter

@@BooleanDev one of my biggest bank in the country use Flutter and even some government app use to as well. It's surprising given that the vast majority of programmer (I live in Thailand) still use JavaScript and jQuery. (You'd think they would use react native but nope. It's either that or Native for some reason.)

yeah i agree developing app with flutter takes less time and you can stills get native like experience

Yeah. That also seemed very odd to me.

Flutter is very popular in China and Africa, two places that have generally lower salaries than the US. The US is very React Native (and platform native) focused.

@@barcode6297 Nothing odd. In Ruby, you can do all sort of thing. In Dart: app for phone> That's all.

And Symfony, Laravel exists thanks to Symfony ;)

@@Glifaus Do you prefer Symfony to Laravel? I've used Slim and Laravel before but never Symfony

@@agesnipes I find Symfony has less magic in it and makes more sense. Have used Lara for years but wanted something that was more traditional. It's down to a matter of taste really, they both accomplish their tasks well.

@@gezenews i do find the market a bit saturated with jr devs (or just fairly unskilled devs, as some jrs are pretty solid). I also think php has always had the issue of a lack of guard rails. there's a LOT of spaghetti code out there.. I'm sure I've contributed over my 20 years haha

@@Glifaus I recall using symphony a VERY long time ago... I remember not liking it. but that was back when I was writing procedural php and "frameworks" were a newfangled distraction

There is more php programmers who did not know how to program, and there is more html/css/javascript developers who someway get their boat on the water, but html/css/javascript is atleast 90% of the UI development, even if you use whatever technology, you will end up making the UI en those technologies, so it is not far why it is better payed html if it is on almost every technology interface used, it is like a hammer, is just the most useful tool because you use it and it do its work almost everywhere.

I think it's more that this is also beginner/amateur language. If you're a self-taught amateur you're more likely to use PHP and learn it to the level you can get a paying job eventually than say C++ or Rust. And this is great, if you can go from "I make $0 on programming" to "I make $x k on writing PHP" it doesn't really matter than you would have made $1.5x k as C++ developer if you got college degree and some professional training - like sure, but the effort needed to get more money would have been significant (and in practice you'd most likely fail to self-teach yourself C++ to the point where you can make meaningful projects so either you're super lucky and you're hired before you gained meaningful skills or you keep making $0, $0 that would not be reflected in these surveys). So long story short - are you well-trained engineer with good degree who has solid foundation and couple years of training already? Pick some modern well-paying language. Are you learning from scratch? Pick language that will get you to your first paying job the fastest (and potentially switch later)

PHP is actually popular at Euro countries. In France, PHP is the most popular programming language

As a part of Laravel learners community, I can say that Laravel was very simple to learn.

SOOO ME BRO LMAO

Been using php since 2008. Currently running a site with 3000/req per second with it. It's a very good language based on C. I don't care what other people think.

Matlab itself has a much better developer experience than octave due to the matlab IDE. They both still suck compared to more computer-science programming languages like Python. The audience for matlab is mostly non-CS professionals that do technical work

what do you mean? Matlab is my favorite programming language 🤓

MatLAB is fantastic for prototyping DSP code and doing heavy number crunching in a pinch. The first time I came across numpy I shouted out “this feels like poor man’s MatLAB!”, except the function library is much smaller. OTOH, MathWorks loves nickel and diming previously standard functions into paid DLC- I mean, Toolboxes…

MATLAB was originally designed for matrix manipulations. For that, it seems to be fine. However, I once had to use its GUI functions, to build a real-time display and processor for multichannel EEG data. Let’s just say, if it’s a choice between that and being covered in honey and tied down in the hot sun next to an anthill ... maybe the ants aren’t so bad ...

@@SegaSaturnSubs fun fact is that after you get used to python's ecosystem, you realize that nearly all of matlab is there, just under different packages, like matplotlib for plots and opencv for most of the img processing stuff

imo you cant defend php, everything can be done with almost everything :D the catch for php is that the wordpress uses it and you might want to stay native when working with wp. i wouldnt say that react is best for SPA (or is it?) since they tend to balloon. react's usecase is for small apps, like shopify plugins. big apps should be written in angular

@@robinspanier7017 I’ve worked with PHP for many years to know it’s not a well designed language so I’m not defending it. The way it borrows from C and Perl while not keeping to a consistent naming convention for libraries, among many other flaws (yes it’s a mess) however one does get used to it. What makes it worse is the amount of people who think as soon as they know some PHP they can build a website, without properly understanding programming constructs, data structures, procedural vs object oriented code, security or UNIX file ownership and permissions. Also Wordpress is completely PHP, only that it uses abstractions for many things, one of them being querying the database (and yes MySQL has flaws too). React may not be the ideal solution for every SPA but definitely a lot easier and more suited for working in a team as opposed to building an SPA in vanilla Javascript. Edit: just adding that sometimes one has control over the technologies used in a website and/or server and other times they don’t. If given the choice then PHP probably shouldn’t be the go to option for most people. The same thing can usually be done in Python.

can we stop this "relative price of living" bullshit? if an indian developer has to buy a laptop it will cost him even more than a fucking US citizen, a brand new car? same or more, we truly need to stop with this bullshit of "cheaper cost of living", if two people are working, one in india and the other in the US, the one in the US gets paid 6k monthly, while the indian one gets paid 800usd monthly then both developers lose their computers, a very basic developer laptop costs around 1.5k... so.... where is the "cheaper" cost of living for the indian?

That's untrue. Any professional wouldn't follow social drama and take it seriously. It tarnishes the organisation and individuals who run it, but not the language itself. The language is a tool, it's for programming and work. Keep the politics away... Is it naïve to think the way that I do?

Sure, CakePHP and other frameworks do still exist but barely anybody uses them now to create a new system. Their sole purpose right now is just so older systems back then can still be secure and somewhat up to date with the current standards.
