Programming: Python Stigma, Wing Python IDE 7.0 RC1 and the Nonsensical New (Sponsored) 'Study' From RedMonk

Deconstructing xkcd.com/1987/
To me, the point of this xkcd comic is for Randall to be self-deprecating and point out how he let the Python situation on his computer get out of hand. Unfortunately people don't always pick up on this and instead decide to point at this picture and say, "see, Python is messed up!" But if you take the time to really look at the comic you will notice that pretty much none if it is directly Python's own fault (not knowing what pip is pointing at is pretty much the only thing you could point at and say is still the Python community's fault).

Microsoft's TypeScript programming language rising fast, almost makes top 10 [Ed: According to a Microsoft site ("RedMonk uses code repositories hosted on GitHub"), Microsoft is on the rise. Lousy research. Delete GitHub as it helps Microsoft craft propaganda. This kind of thing has been done for years. Anti-GPL FUD, claims that Microsoft is top contributor to FOSS and so on. As if GitHub is the same thing as FOSS. GitHub itself is proprietary. RedMonk itself lists Microsoft as a client. The author of this article habitually bashes Linux (for years) and the site is Microsoft-sponsored (through ads). Fernando Cassia said: "If shell and powershell are "programming languages" I'm an astronaut. It's hard to take any analysis based on raw github categories too seriously. I'm not sure JVM languages with a non-JVM counterpart are counted for instance. Is jruby counted in the same category as Ruby?"]
RedMonk uses code repositories hosted on GitHub and discussions on Stack Overflow to rank programming languages.
