Thanks; I should clarify. I agree Python is, in my subjective opinion, the best language spec and community in programming. It's simply the most fun, productive environment. But people are leaving; important people and newcomers and loyal stalwarts. Im on the go right now so can't access links, but there have been a handful of posts here in the past 6mo or so of prominent members leaving, or sharing their disenchantment. Many other "I'm moving to go" posts. And the velocity of npm/go are undeniable (look at the stats). Remember, npm is largely for the server, where js shouldn't have an advantage. I love Python. I want it to win. Maybe "lose" is too strong of a word, but it's certainly slipping.
