Interestingly, ADA is the very bottom of the list for popular languages 
in the "jobs" category:

Near the bottom for "spectrum" (popular, I guess?).


That's unfortunate, it has a solid reputation but the usage seems

Here are 747 public repos seemingly using Ada:

And here's a whole bunch more repos on Github found when searching for 
"Ada", although not all of them actually use Ada:

Might be of interest to anyone who want to prep for Ada.
