C, of which Objective-C is a strict superset, has reclaimed the #1 spot from Java, which slides to #2. Tiobe also explains how it determines its rankings."

Where are the C development jobs? I have strong C skills, but everything is Java/C++/PHP/Ruby/worse.
Worse? Fortran? Cobol? Ada?

What can I say about Objective-C programming, I like, Objective-C programming, but Objective-C programming, is not quite as fun as non-Objective-C programming.
Actually, I have never performed Objective-C programming, but I think, Objective-C programming is quite useful for application domains specific to Objective-C programming.
Have you ever tried Objective-C programming, Apple likes to talk about Objective-C programming, but I'm not sure that Objective-C programming is right for me...?
Objective-C programming may well be right for everyone,
God Bless Objective-C programming

But they do count prime-time programming, which is always more popular than the other kinds.
