This article is from 2006. I imagine something has changed in 9 years.

You clearly haven't worked in a large enterprise!

Sure I have. That’s why I said "something" instead of "a lot". They were investigating C++ in 2006 and I've actually talked to a C++ developer from Bloomberg so something has changed. Just search their job listing:

I still feel Fortran gets a bad rap. Fortran has been a work horse and is extremly fast. (Mind you I learned Assembly on a C64 so Fortran looked so much "nicer" back in the 80s and I don't program in it at all but it seems like everyone treats it like it is some mothballed slow poke.

They have a lot of C++, Ruby/Rails, JavaScript, etc.

The information in this article was wrong even back in 2003 when I started there.

Yes, it's even more Fortran now.
