Octoverse 2025 Github survey is out

https://octoverse.github.com/ 2025 survey is out. I was surprised at couple of things
1. Typescript has over taken python as most used language in github.

2. C++ is in top 5 used language in 80% of the NEW repositories.

Many in the industry discourage use of C++ for new projects, still C++ is in the top 5 languages used in the New repositories in 80% of the repositories in 2025.

My guess is this is mostly because of AI/ML anyone has any other theories why is this..
