Yes, there are a lot more people out there who put Java on their resume 
than put Python on their resume.  Most of those so-called Java programmers 
write total crap.  Of course, there's a lot of crap written in Python too.  
But since there're a lot more Java programmers out there, it stands to 
reason that there's a lot more crappy Java programmers too.

It's a lot easier to teach a good programmer Python than it is to teach a 
crappy programmer good software engineering skills.
