Do you think this will start to change? I often see posts on this site bemoaning the performance of Python (often referencing the order of magnitude performance differences of similarly dynamic languages like JavaScript).

I'm hopeful that honest efforts to port over useful bits of the scientific/mathematical ecosystem to JS will start to take off someday soon.



I'm betting on julia as the replacement personally, it seems to be attracting a growing fraction of the scientific community.


Have you considered why CS101 and data scientists may be adopting Python over JS?

And have a look at, say, Julia.
