Java is still a mainstay language, despite its popularity slowly dropping for more than a decade. Python will be around for many years; however, now we have hit the end of Moore's law, the easiest way to speed up code is to multi-thread. I code exclusively in Python, so I can't judge if languages like Julia are serious contenders. I also agree that building up the same ecosystem as in Python will take some time, and therefore I do not predict a rapid decline. However, many of the things I use Python for can be easily done in another scripting language.
