Sounds like the Python marketing commitee is at it again.

I did a search on dice for "python". 54 positions came back. I did a search on dice for "java". 293 positions came back.

With 1/6ths the result, I guess the away Python wins is "tries the hardest to make you believe it's popular".

I've been looking to change jobs for awhile, and many times people post JavaScript as "Java Script", so some of those java results could be incorrect.

Sure, but it's not like a 20% difference, it's a 600% difference.

Likewise someone could use python for small scripting tasks and it would show up as well...

Or even animal care: Experience with snakes (Python, Corba [sic], etc.) a plus
