@jean , this is true that if you are a genius then you can get into Google with any programming language, there is no stopping that. There is also not that they only work with Python, they work with almost every programming language including Haskell. The article is about top programming languages which give you the best chance to get a job on tech giants. So, with Python, you have a lot more opportunities than Java, but yes, you can also get a Job with Java but you need to really good at that and wait your opportunity.

Thanks for clarifying out.
You are 100% right that investing in Python is a great idea, I have no doubt about this.

I guess I was just adding that if you already are skilled, you can also apply to Google immediately. Google has 100.000 employees, and unless you have a very low bar for what it means to be a genius, not all of them are geniuses.

They are good developers and that's enough. So if you are a good developer, you can apply.
