For me as a long-term C# fanboy these modern times are hard.
C# has benefits now because of the community and wide reach. That was always the argument against C# ;)
I see it picking traction. Probably won't happen in Bay Area but smaller shops worldwide are picking it because it has some advantages.
I don't expect it to takeover the world, I just want it to have enough success to keep me earning money and be kept up to date. Which kind of happens. :)
