Everything relevant in "program synthesis" moved to the new buzzword "codegen"

Depends on the extent to which you understand the Silicon Valley venture capitalism era as a permanent evolution, as opposed to an unsustainable trend!

In my nonacademic opinion, codegen is way, way less meaningful and powerful of a perspective to take on the problem than Program Synthesis. That said, I’m curious - are you mostly referencing commercial and OSS work with this comment, or does this also include institutional textbooks and tutorials and such?

FWIW, Program Synthesis is still much more popular in print according to Google Ngram - tho it’s losing ground fast!

Is there a similar tool that would accurately measure usage in blogs, manuals, and github pages, I wonder?
