I was surprised to see a technology on the list on the up and up which I could not identify, kafka. There aren't that many posts submitted to HN on it and the few that are have almost no comments. Who's using it in production besides LinkedIn?
I was also very surprised to see that NLP had declined and that machine learning was not on the list (but Statistics was).
What were the criteria used for those included on the top ten lists?
Were the named tokens measured automatically collected or did you manually enter the tokens?
I manually created the tokens. Machine learning fell through the cracks on this first version, I'm adding multi word concepts. The top ten were those that had mentions both this year and last and saw the biggest change in either direction. I need to add some minimums though so going from 3 mentions to 2 doesn't register as "falling"
