Also apparently is Javascript only, which are the most well served community in terms of recognition, funding and (comparatively) less complex and smaller codebases.
I wonder how a underfunded and complex crypto library, emulator or VM feel about the effort expended vs. the funds that goes to 3000 line of code javascript libraries that are linked everywhere.
Not to understate the work and effort in those libraries, but the guy who creates a engine (lets say in C++) which is wrapper in a popular python library and do the heavy lifting will be underfunded while the guy that wraps it over python will receive all the funding.
My guess is, well organized, hype-based language communities will win in the end, even if the technology is inferior(not the language, but the libraries), giving they will be able to generate more funding.
Other language communities should keep an eye on this and step up, because in the end "it's the economy, stupid".
