First off there is no ratio of Jobs to Salary being calculated so the numbers are bullshit. If there is 1 job for language A @ $90,000 avg and 40 jobs for langauge B @ 70,000 avg it just states that A makes more than B, which is pure bull. You need to add weight to each Salary avg based on the ratio of jobs otherwise the number mean nothing.

The numbers are bogus; I could not reproduce them and the sample size is way too small.
