From that article:

"It might surprise some to know there are more Python developers than
Java developers."

That surprises me, and I'm... sort of a Python developer. I wonder
what the context of that statement is. Are they talking just on IBM i?
Are they including anyone who noodles around in one of those
languages, or do they only mean people whose primary language at their
day job is one of those? Or do they include open source projects?

Python is a great language for noodling around in, and tons of people
do just that and no more. Or they do automation scripts with it but
not "proper applications". Java isn't as well suited to casual use or
scripting, though of course that doesn't stop some people.
