Hi, Habr.
2019 is coming to an end, and it is time to take stock and collect statistics and a rating of the most interesting Habr's articles for this period. You can read the previous rating
here , I hope the new one will be even more interesting.

Parsing and data processing have been improved this year (by the way, the image on the KDPV is generated based on the article headings), so I hope the results will be more interesting. I also added two new categories in the rating - now the hubs “IT emigration” and “Health” will be separately considered, I think for many this and that may be relevant.
Continuation and results under the cut.
For those who have not read the previous part, let me remind you of the idea - with the help of a program in Python, articles of this site are downloaded and analyzed. For those interested in the technical part of parsing, a description and examples of source codes can be found
here and
here . The rating is not official, so if I missed something - write, I will correct it.
Separately, in addition to the rating of articles, the
rating of authors is laid out. So this part will probably be more interesting to the "readers", the second part will be more relevant to the "writers".
Statistically, of course, it would be more correct to publish the article on January 1, but the inner voice suggests that everyone at this time will not be up to Habr ... So the publication comes out a little earlier, but in the beginning of 2020 I will update the graphics.
So let's get started.
general information
For this year, about 19 thousand articles were posted on the site, or an average of about 50 per day. For clarity, you can break the data into 4 categories: articles, corporate blogs, news and the English section.

The weekly frequency is clearly visible on the chart - most articles are published on weekdays, holiday periods in January, March and May are also visible (for some reason, the autumn holiday is not visible). Of the most notable innovations on Habré - the appearance of the News section, as you can see, somewhere in March the number of published news began to grow (it seems that everyone was allowed to publish the news then, but this is not accurate). It is also clearly visible on the graph that corporate blogs occupy about half of published materials (which is quite a lot, I thought this figure was less). Well, the English section, it seems, never "took off."
It is interesting to see the “cloud” of words - which terms are most often found in the headings. The picture was already in the title, here is a larger and more readable version:

The similar result of 2018 As you can see, Google, Python, Android and Windows have not changed their positions, but Java has left the top 10. The words Linux and Microsoft have become more popular. Sign of time - the word VPN first appeared in the word cloud.
Well, now let's move on to the promised rating. Once again, I recall that the rating is unofficial, if I missed someone, write, I will add it manually.

Bonus
Below is the promised bonus. This year I decided to separate into a separate rating two categories that are quite relevant for many - “IT emigration” and “Health”. Why it’s relevant, I think it’s not necessary to explain. I did not break this part into sub-categories, so the block will be a single list.

Conclusion
As you can see, using different requests, you can get quite a variety of information. I hope that readers will have something to read on long Christmas and New Year holidays. I congratulate all those who are in the rating, if someone missed, write, I will add it manually.
In the second part, a
rating of authors is available, I hope it will also be interesting.
