Thanks for sharing - that’s actually pretty interesting. I knew about Polars, but I didn’t know it performed better. I know about that in passing from folks that are in the Cloud “Data” space, who use SaaS platforms that are heavily Python based. That includes Pandas and Polars, but also Jupyter. That really threw me for a loop, but the more I think about it, the more sense it makes.

Meanwhile Banks are using… Bank Python.

The collective man-hours this would have saved people, if we had it back in 1999, would be staggering.

Rust is still in the locker room having an argument with their coach (borrow checker).

It’s not stupid if it works. I also love the use of (readily available) automotive fuses.
