"According to The State of Javascript survey, only 6% of responders that have used coffeescript before said that they would consider using it again."

Nit: the calculation seems wrong to me.

- Used it before, would use again: 6%

- Used it before, would not use again: 25%

- Therefore, "responders that have used coffeescript before said that they would consider using it again" shall be: 6% / (6% + 25%) = 19.4%

That chart was kind of weird itself, though. Can we really believe that more people have heard of CoffeeScript than "Plain JavaScript"?
