Those are not separate accounts from Google's perspective. If you signed up from globalrev it would no longer be possible for anyone to sign up as global.rev or g.lobalrev.

But "real" Google's just as good for that: http://www.google.com/search?q=globalrev+site://news.ycombin...

I think it's reasonable to assume on a "Hacker News" site that the clientele will be up to figuring that out.

Ask HN: Best partner language for Java -- Python, Ruby, or X?

In August, globalrev wondered what Ruby has that Python doesn't (http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=283639). I have a related question.

In my day job I am a Java engineer working on enterprise software (I know, I know). I'm considering taking the time to gain expertise in another language that is strong where Java is weak (I currently stumble around in python with decent results).

No offense to language people, but what I care least about is obscure edge cases. I have no pressing plans to do class metaprograming or crazy language-hack magic in general. I do appreciate elegance and simplicity in a language.

I definitely want something stable, widely deployed, with a rich set of functionality/libraries -- thus my initial thoughts of python or ruby.

What language would you recommend? Why?
