One measurement by which Python is more popular than Ruby, Java, Perl, PHP and .NET

One measurement by which Python is more popular than Ruby, Java, Perl,
PHP and .NET is in the world of Podcasts. At Podcastalley, podcasts are
ranked by popularity in each of several genre's. In the "Technology "
genre there are 1026 podcasts listed and ranked, and of the ones that
are about programming languages and related areas, they show up in the
rankings like this:

32. Python411
44. Perlcast
49. ProPHP
99. DotNetRocks
120. JavaCast

and the Ruby on Rails podcast is not even ranked due to receiving zero
votes ;-)))

Just alight hearted comparison.

The Python411 podcast sereis can be found at <a
href="http://www.awaretek.co m/python/index.html">Pyt hon411</a> and you
can subscribe to it by rss at http://www.awaretek.com/python/index.xml

Python411 is a series of podcasts aimed at those who are learning
Python.

I've been following the group a bit (somewhat loosely; discussions involving other languages or advanced concepts kind of lose me), and I see all this negativity (OMG Python's lambda is borken roflol, use teh othar langauge). I as a relative newcomer to Python pay little heed to the criticism, though. A few things in Python are counterintuitive, yes, but what language doesn't have such things? And I feel that one can master the syntax of...

I read this mailing list fairly often, and I am always amazed at what I learn (even not related to Python). I am relatively new to Python. I make my living developing mostly in Java. Python was a "discovery" I made a couple of years ago, and I love the language, but only get to use it at home for hobbies. With all the recent news: - ESR tells Sun to open Java, or be relegated into obscurity by Python, Ruby, and Perl. - Project mono...

Raise your hand if you think the best technology wins! For those of you with your hands in the air, tell me: if Python is so good,why has PHP achieved such greater adoption and mindshare? Why do web scripters still cling to their Perl, even in corporate environments? Why hasn't Python made inroads against Java? Why is Ruby, and Ruby on Rails, getting such strong play? Are these better programming languages, or is it other factors? ...

Hi. I am interested in learning a new programming language, and have been debating whether to learn Ruby or Python. How do these compare and contrast with one another, and what advantages does one language provide over the other? I would like to consider as many opinions as I can on this matter before I start studying either language in depth. Any help/comments are greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi, I've been thinking about Python vs. Lisp. I've been learning Python the past few months and like it very much. A few years ago I had an AI class where we had to use Lisp, and I absolutely hated it, having learned C++ a few years prior. They didn't teach Lisp at all and instead expected us to learn on our own. I wasn't aware I had to uproot my thought process to "get" it and wound up feeling like a moron. In learning Python I've...

I've been thinking (and blogging) about python evangelism since PyCon, as a result of which I created a squidoo lens: http://www.squidoo.com/pythonlogy Imagine my surprise at discovering that this has gone up in rank (by number of views) from # 442,000 or so to #153! Clearly there's some mileage in marketing Python, and I'd like to keep the buzz going if it means more people will adopt the language.

The definition of a component model I use below is a class which allows properties, methods, and events in a structured way which can be recognized, usually through some form of introspection outside of that class. This structured way allows visual tools to host components, and allows programmers to build applications and libraries visually in a RAD environment. The Java language has JavaBeans as its component model which allows Java...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers. The idea...
