Comment on Ask HN: How do you work in Programming language research?

Comments

How are all the maintainers/developers of the many programming languages around getting paid? Do you really do all this work in your free time, after having another full time job?

I want to correct the assumption that may have led to this question little; programming language _research_ and programming language _implementation_ are generally two separate jobs requiring separate skillsets (that sometimes may overlap). Which one are you interested in doing? (both?)
