I don't think any single language will be the "next Python" for everybody.

Many seem to be happy replacing Python with Go, to get better performance, parallelism and packaging support. However, for my uses I'd much rather replace it with another high-level scripting language, even if it's still slow and single-threaded.

This is what I’ve done and it’s way easier from a packaging perspective but the thing that stings is Go misses out on all the data science stuff like pandas, numpy etc
