Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Eclipse and Visual Studio run neck-and-neck in the PyPL popularity index of desktop IDEs, with Android Studio a distant third Because it wasn't silly enough to rank programming languages by web searches?

Ok, I'll launch the first sortie in this IDE war. 
Eclipse is the worst of the three.
Yes, I have used all three and Eclipse is the worst.
It is far easier in Visual Studio or Android Studio to manage a project.
Of course, I'm quite biased because I've used Visual Studio since Visual C++ 1.5 or something.
Have you ever tried to move the source from an Eclipse project (whatever they call it) onto another machine? It's quite terrible and failure-prone. Just for a simple thing like opening a project.
Eclipse, blech! 
I could not believe how much easier Android Studio was to use when it came out -- that's after a year of using Eclipse for Android dev.
yes, yes, Eclispe is used for other things (Java) but I'm guessing it is terrible there too.
Just because people use it doesn't mean that they like it.
So, I guess we've settled this then. The result is that Eclipse is the worst and I'm glad we all agree.

Quote: Top IDE index is based on how often IDEs are searched on in Google
Wouldn't that statistic be biased towards confusing IDEs?

Ignoring that the core concept of the index is somewhat dubious, like almost all articles about the latest iteration of a bogo-index it's also missing the real story that the index has to tell in favor of month to month noise. 
For their IDE one, the big one is that Eclipse has lost ~half of its share since 2010 while VS has been holding steady for the entire 14 years the index has been running. It hasn't been any one big thing that's gobbled Eclipse's share either, Android Studio took about 40% of its share; most of the attrition has been at the expense of assorted minnows each taking a much smaller share.

Wrong article!
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

The core findings of the report show a significant gap between the top 25% of enterprises, referred to as the “Masters of the Modern Software Factory,” and everyone else across a range of measures including revenue, profit, executive leadership, risk-taking and adoption of modern software tools. I wonder where I could go to learn more about these modern software tools?

These laws were drawn up with the best of intentions. They were supposed to protect us. But, sadly, they're being used for nefarious purposes. "The first thing we do, let's kill all the lawyers."

No. Cryptocurrency is a chaos of participants. And as that post (or something similar to it) points out, governments should definitely fear the idea of losing control over "legal tender." Cryptocurrency will continue to live on the dark web, but anyone publicly announcing their virtual coin wallet will soon enough discover that they are going to jail as laws to regulate virtual currencies go into affect (see my post lower down.) ICO's are the new Ponzi scheme and I think the Chase CEO is right on the money, haha.
What will probably survive though, and have some interesting uses, is the underlying blockchain technology. But if people were dreaming of creating an untaxable monetary unit, well, those were just dreams.
