Making Python faster with Rust
This is a great article but there's still a core problem there - why should developers have to choose between accessibility and performance?<p>So much scientific computing code suffers between core packages being split away from their core language - at what point do we stop and abandon python for languages which actually make sense? Obviously julia is the big example here, but its interest, development and ecosystem doesn't seem to be growing at a serious pace. Given that the syntax is moderately similar and the performance benefits are often 10x what's stopping people from switching???
