The 2018 Developer Survey Results are Live
Rachel Ferrigno on March 13, 2018

Each year, we ask the developer community about everything from their favorite technologies to their job preferences. This year marks the eighth year we’ve published our Annual Developer Survey results—with the largest number of respondents yet. Over 100,000 developers took the 30-minute survey this past January. This year, we covered a few new topics ranging from artificial intelligence to ethics in coding.

See the Results Here

DevOps and machine learning are important trends in the software industry today. Languages and frameworks associated with these kinds of works are on the rise, and developers working in these areas command the highest salaries. …

@Catija Yes. In some cases this can be something that comes from, or is at least started by the community. I think most technical topic sites will probably want to at least take a stab at designing their own. Once they have, we can either use what they've got, or our designers can help them flesh it out into something that can be put in place.
But for the non-technical sites, we're still happy to let designers handle it all.

A: How to make sure face is not ugly without any mirror/smart phone?

Robert CartainoFind yourself a wristwatch or bracelet with a polished chrome or mirrored surface. A pair of reflective sunglasses will work in a pinch. This will allow you to look at yourself inconspicuously without drawing too much attention to yourself by constantly reaching into your pocket or backpack. ...

@HTTP brilliant! He surely love that site.... :D
@rene oh. But I read they asked people to wash the clothes and clean everything else with baby wipes, our local media (which usually just translates articles from other sources) never mentioned burning of the clothes.

Q: Should we permit undeleting questions against the author’s will?

Evan CarrollI just wrote this comment to my own question Just for the record, I attempted to delete this question twice and a group of fascist elitists punks have resurrected it in a fashion totally adverse to its author's desire.. Obviously, this question will just get downvoted at meta.stackoverfl...

heh, comments on the now-deleted nomination are still available in his actions list‌​.
(and the nomination itself in its full glory)
@HTTP well, at least one of his latest "contributions" is bad, he removed a valid tag from old question in SO, I just rolled back that bad edit.
He probably have tons of those, so I'd say he's causing more harm than good.
Wow, the SE staff hive is buzzing.... 11 rooms and about 40-50 employees active in the last 2 hours. :)

A: Let's disallow nominations from people who've been suspended in the past year

Evan CarrollI recently got a moderator message Going to leave the contents of this message aside for the time being, and reveal some personal facts. I am the top user on DBA.StackExchange in 2017. I have 30k reputation on StackOverflow. I have never been banned or suspended on StackOverflow. Why can't...

Surprisingly enough, @gnat appears to share his idea, though said in better tone.
