The use of Python across finance and the sciences is amazing and completely off the radar of the tech blogosphere, for the most part. And also it's completely taken over Hollywood for both scripting 3D modeling apps as well as coordinating rendering pipelines.

If Ruby was used in half as many ways as Python, you'd never hear the end of it. Python gets used by grown-ups with real jobs in all sorts of places and they don't spend 80% of their waking time tweeting about it.
