18 python hatchlings found on house premises in Thrissur

Python hatchlings caught from a house in Punkunnam. | Photo Credit: K.K.NAJEEB Panic gripped residents =Punkunnam after 18 python hatchlings were found in a house compound over two days, raising fears of more snakes in the area. The hatchlings were recovered from the premises of a house on Seetharam Lane. The incident first came to light when house owner Karthik’s brother spotted two snake hatchlings near the canal adjoining the house. More hatchlings were found across the compound later in the day. Around eight were caught on the first day, with two slipping into the water. A fresh search on Thursday morning led to the capture of 10 more hatchlings, including some found inside a scooter parked in front of the house. The hatchlings, each around 50 cm long, were handed over to forest officials. As per the preliminary assessment by the Forest department a python may have entered from the nearby canal, laid eggs in or around the house foundation, and the hatchlings might have emerged recently. Fearing that more snakes could be hiding …

Kotlin, Ruby & Swift Drop in Popularity

Kotlin, Ruby & Swift Drop in Popularity

Popularity consolidated in the top 20 programming languages in April, according to TIOBE Software CEO Paul Jansen. C overtook Java for the number three spot between March and April. Key takeaways from the April TIOBE Index rankings: SQL continues to fall as it has done over the last few months, dropping to the number 10 position. C++ held on to the number two spot, showing a significant year-over-year increase in the proprietary points system. Python’s popularity dipped slightly month-over-month, but it still holds a significant lead over the second-place language, C++.

Why? For Kotlin and Swift, …

Legacy ‘Dinosaur’ Languages Are Making a Comeback

Legacy ‘Dinosaur’ Languages Are Making a Comeback

Legacy programming languages, once thought to be relics of the past, are having a surprising comeback. This month, Fortran, Ada, COBOL, and Delphi all vying for positions in the TIOBE Index top 20. Takeaways from the March TIOBE rankings: Python: Recently named “TIOBE’s programming language of the year 2024” in January by TIOBE CEO Paul Jansen continues its meteoric rise. C++: Maintains its stronghold at second place on the leaderboard. Fortran and Delphi: Both legacy languages, are fighting for a spot in the top 10. COBOL and Ada: Both re-entered the top 20 this month. Ada, notably, was the third highest ranking language back in 1985. “I think that it (comeback) has to do with the many vital legacy systems that keep the world running,” Jansen said in the TIOBE Programming Community Index in March. “Most of them are developed with the aid of these dinosaur languages.” A shift in priorities: February vs. March This marks a noticeable shift from February’s rankings, which were dominated by speed-focused languages like C+ +, Go, and Rust. Jansen attributed that trend to the growing need …
