Python Overtaking R?

I just read two articles that claim that Python is overtaking R for data science and machine learning. From user comments, I learned that R is still strong in certain tasks. I will survey what these tasks are. The first article by Vincent Granville from DSC uses proxy metrics (as opposed to asking the users). He uses statistics from Google Trends, Indeed job search terms, and Analytic Talent (DSC job database) to conclude that Python has overtaken R. One is led to ask if one group of users (say Python's) is a more active googler.
