Python might take over JavaScript as the most used language after all

uv from @astral_sh is one of the biggest upticks in Python developer experience in the last 10 years

I've seen so many people struggle with Python distributions, virtual environments, Anaconda, etc. over the years

Most newbies don't care about where their Python executables are, why they have to edit PATH, or why they have to activate a virtual environment

It seems like uv has fixed this: https://github.com/astral-sh/uv
