I'm not against Python by any means. I like it and I use it fairly often.
However this article is very unconvincing.
The arguments summed up in order are basically:
* Python has generators.
* Python interpreters are getting faster.
* Argument from popularity.
* Holy shit, guys! Did you know that CPython isn't the only Python implementation, and that there's a difference between language specification and implementation? Mind = blown, amirite?
* It's so easy... scientists and mathematicians can use it? (Not to say that Python isn't easy, but to make it out like it'd be so impressive for a hard scientist to pick up programming is silly.)
