For any serious program ten years from now, Python isn't going to cut it. Not because it's not scalable enough, but I think the very concept of scalability is going to change. A language should really be agnostic as to how many computers its running on and storing its data on, and it should be agnostic as to where those computers are on the Internet. Any language with a threading model is broken by design. It's like when the Python guys realized they didn't want to care how many bits were in an Integer, so they just made it a big number by default. You shouldn't care about mutex's and locking. It's just silly and backwards.
