so glad I chose Python way back in 2005. The emergence of Rails with Ruby's horrendous perl-esque syntax (oh, and "convention over configuration", a terrible idea borrowed from PHP) and the showboat personality of DHH at the top (which has gone mostly predictably) only inspired me to improve Python's ecosystem even more. I'd like to say Python has come out on top in terms of remaining relevant.
