Python still undefated in 2017

Python remains undefeated in 2017, just edging out React. The margin of victory was just 2 posts, 184 - 182 and React was winning as of last week. Perhaps June will bring a new champion.

Overall, postings were up, with the 2nd highest total ever and up 21% from April. The tech job industry appears healthy given this window into hiring.

Elsewhere in the top 10, Machine Learning is making a move towards the top 5, coming in at 6, its highest ranking ever. Postgresql made a big move from 13 to 7 as well as it continues to pull away from MySQL as the dominant application RDBMS.
