Nice post. Your comparison is fairly well-balanced. I wasn't expecting that given you began by stating you develop in Python (lead me to assume this would be biased toward Python).

The two languages that I most often use are Java and Python, depending on the project and task. I am a researcher in A.I., and although you are correct that Python currently has wider usage in that domain due to really good ML libraries, I actually utilize Java more for my A.I. research. Although I use Python for data analysis tasks, which I never use Java for.

Thank you for your input Vincent! We definitely agree, it shouldn't be either just Python or just Java, but the one that's better suited for your project!
