I'm aware, and I've read those posts. This question was in response to recent observations (i.e. the past month or so). I think it's a topic worth revisiting, especially with so many recent attempts to build better tools to teach folks to code.

It depends on what you want to do with it. Python is great if you just want to "learn programming." It's very noob friendly and there are tons of libraries. Rails is great if what you really want is to learn web programming (and Ruby if you're learning Rails). JavaScript is great if you want to learn UI programming for web and light mobile. etc. etc. Languages are just tools.
