Considering they didn't even bother mentioning "synergies", I wouldn't take this firm too seriously.
Edit: Nothing about "disruption" either.

Maybe these are the top 10 languages/tech employers have a need for, but nothing beats pure intelligence, analytical/problem solving skills, and ravenous curiosity/drive to learn.
What an awful article. Good to know putting Verilog on your resume is a Most Wanted thing! You can put it to use by becoming an intern /after/ you graduate with a CS degree.
Time to scrap all our Ruby on Rails apps and rewrite in Perl, folks.
Perl and Matlab? Seriously?
It's fashionable to declare Perl dead, but the truth of the matter is Perl is still everywhere.
Often in places like automation, or gluing disparate systems together.
While I know the TIOBE index has its flaws, Perl is consistently in the top 10 and has maintained that level of popularity for 20+ years.
With a history like that many critical systems are going to have a Perl dependency somewhere which means companies are going to need Perl developers.

It is true that Perl being superseded doesn't make it immediately disappear. Even COBOL hasn't disappeared completely.
That said, Perl openings do seem to be in serious decline. Right now on indeed.com, there are 700 openings mentioning Perl for the BA. There are 4000 Python openings.

Getting 504. I guess it's HN effect.
I almost stopped reading at this opening sentence. We've got "leverage", the double base covering with "artificial intelligence and machines learning", and the coup de grâce, "talent aquisition practitioners."
Slow clap for the buzzword compliance hat trick.
