I didn't click the link, but while I do agree all languages evolve and/or get replaced (just look at the history of them) and so C# will be included in that eventually too... C/C++ is still around. COBOL is still around. ASM is still around. Sure, it's special use cases and perhaps not the cool new thing, but the world doesn't switch overnight. Even though it will switch eventually.
As a side note, all languages as we know them today are dying. The next wave of tech will thin the lines of desktop and web development even more. Languages will have to handle issues not originally thought of when the desktop and web were considered widely different. We're trying to make OSes subscription based and like a service for instance. Even JavaScript will meet its fate eventually as WASM gets more and more advanced, able to handle DOM manipulations better, etc.
Point is, if you can't embrace change, you're in the wrong industry. AI will change things a lot too. The coders of the future may literally just talk high level to the computer and the computer code itself in the actual language. We already have a rudimentary version of that with ChatGPT.

The rumors of my demise are greatly exaggerated.
C#
But seriously speaking - C# is a great language and with every new feature set it becomes better and better. The major features they add are very well thought out and very much in tune with what many people want to be added to the language. The latest case in point are abstract static methods added to the interfaces - one cannot overestimate the importance of it for improving reuse.
What was hurting C# before - was the fact that it was tied to Windows OS. But there is no longer such restriction.

Not going to click this either  ... this opinion is "unusual"
because, according to TIOBE, for the past 10 years or so C# has always been in the top 5 on the planet, it went up from 12 in 2003 to 8 in 2008 and then it went up again, and it got its steady place there since 2013:
2023: 5
2018: 4
2013: 5
2008: 8
2003: 12
No sign of decline here ...

Tens of millions of people quit work during the pandemic and continue to do so even now. A recently released survey shows they're not unhappy with their choice to leave. We're here, we're there, we're everywhere

This article pretty clearly lays out that this wasn't a "great resignation", but rather a "great job shift". People left jobs they didn't feel met their worldview or needs and went to work where they felt they had a better fit.
Having done this very thing in January 2015 I fully understand. It was the best job change I've ever made and I will probably retire from my current job.

That's the way

There's an urgency for 'thinking about development from the lens of the user experience first, and solution second,' says Cisco CIO Fletcher Previn. And round those corners!
"And of course, DevOps"... "of course"?

As much of an impact as ChatGPT has had since its launch in November, a prominent computer engineer believes we’ve only seen the tip of the iceberg. But nothing can stop Bing!

uhm what.
maybe its the clickbait wording, but Google/Alphabet seem primed to use a chatgpt clone for search.
as for money, my understanding its advertisement, on almost every website that it makes most of its revenue. Sure search results page, but I don't know the split.
Google could use I dont know, chrome address bar, and mix with recent news. because the thing that the internet needs, is continued crawling of the internet, updated pages. all data that google gathers, has some set of algorithms, and could mix with an AI model, which I think they announced last year they already working on.
maybe because its a tweet, and done quickly 🤷

A few days ago, speech AI startup ElevenLabs launched a beta version of its platform that gives users the power to create entirely new synthetic voices for text-to-speech audio or to clone somebody's voice. Well, it only took the internet a few days to start using the latter for vile purposes. I think I first heard George Washington complaining about this

Pfff, I have it since 2006, it's called "wife". And I'm pretty sure many people had the same technology way before me.

And I suppose that what you speak during the meal is going to be ignored and deleted from their servers ipso facto... isn't it?

Wages of sin is freaking great, I understand that some people preferred Johan Liiva but Angela Gossow entered the band with a bang and further defined Arch Enemy's sound for the decades to come.
Oh, not that Wages of Sin.
