@jmw150 In the case of Julia, isn't Apple big tech?
@jmw150 then it's four, only Facebook is absent.
Good point. Julia is Rust grade hyped.
Go at has Google for now.
Java was Oracle's, when it was a big company. They where probably the first to come up with big-tech money == popularity, formula.
Javascript (2 of 5 big tech)

PHP I am finding only has small tech supporters for its foundation. They also have an open budget and spending model for their foundation.
