So, programmers, tell me which language is glaringly absent, and yet has billions of lines of critical code ...

I don’t think code from many of these languages wouldn’t be posted often on Github — who would post Mathematica, AppleScript, SQL, XML?
Surprised to see VB and FORTRAN so high on the list.

Various cloud platforms critical to success are missing, I guess because they aren’t languages. Heroku, New Relic, Cloud Bees, RightScale. Likewise, Big Data apps aren’t shown — Cloudera, TeraData.

I guess I am out of luck with FORTRAN. However, I did sweat through a class in Java Scripting. It was the most difficult class I have taken since physical chemistry in my undergraduate days. I learned enough to take a Java Script someone else wrote and paste it into a web page. Writing your own scripts I found quite daunting.
