Seems like a "haha JS bad" kind of joke, but OP seems to forget that Python is also in a similar boat.

JS at least has Typescript to mitigate most of its problems, but mypy leaves a lot to be desired.

Meme: image of an airliner cockpit, but the thrust levers are replaced with a big button that says "import numpy"

I don’t get it, is python dying?

Nah, just slow.

But it has a ridiculously big library and is easy to write. A lot of libraries are also written in C, so the slowness drawback doesn't even apply in some cases.
