[omaha] 2017 TIOBE index

That would seem like a good answer, yes, except that I know more than a few
programmers who have no formal education but get along just fine.  There
always seems to be the gap between what the employer (or HR dept) throws
out as a requirement and what actually gets a given job.  There's the rub.

I've heard that for large corporations, the requirements are the
requirements.  For small companies, not so much.  But there's where my
knowledge ends.
