I'm sorry but loaded questions like these should never make it to the list because THERE IS NO ANSWER only OPINION!

Asking a question such as this is like asking what car is the best one for driving? It's subjective and only causes flame wars.

What's the "best"? Well, the "best" is the "right tool for the right job".

Find a language that suits the job (ie. does it require quick turn around and easy coding, go for a scripting language, if it requires scaling and enterprise level features then pick a language that suits), then if the language has frameworks that do what you need them to do, then select one based on those values rather than a blanket, "what's the best".

Everyone in here stating that one language is better than another should be sent to the naughty corner as they should well know by now that EVERY bloody language has it's pro's and con's.

The reason encryption hasn't taken off is that it's not done by default, and can't be enabled by clicking a checkbox.

Actually that's probably the most likely of scenarios. It's not easily integrated into everywhere you'd send an email from and therefore is inconvenient.

Sound familiar?

McKAY: I should be in that meeting. I am the foremost expert on the defence capabilities of this city.

ZELENKA: You know how it is -- when military steps in, scientists take a back seat.

McKAY: Until they need us.

ZELENKA: I don't think they need us.

McKAY: Yeah, they don't think they need us, right up until the point that they need us, and then, they need us.

ZELENKA: Then they need us.
