Similar here. IMHO it is called "job trends hype". Look at all the linkedin ads, less than 1% is about Pgsql/DBs, 99% is about app coders. Ok rough numbers, but it reflects reality. One of my past
programmers (a fine kid always looking to learn) now writes IOS and Android apps in another country. Another one who didn't do much well with SQL, but rock-star programmer otherwise, now writes
javascript in another company.
