This feels like the time I was a Mercurial user before I moved to Git.

Everyone was using git for reasons to me that seemed bandwagon-y, when Mercurial just had such a better UX and mental model to me.

Now, everyone is writing agent `exec`s in Python, when I think TypeScript/JS is far better suited for the job (it was always fast + secure, not to mention more reliable and information dense b/c of typing).

But I think I'm gonna lose this one too.

Agreed, however AI adoption is finally putting pressure on CPython to have a JIT in the box, so there is that.

And on GPU side, the existing libraries provide DSL based JITs, thus for many scenarios the performance is not much different from C++.

Now NVidia is also on the game with the new tile based architecture, with first party support to write kernels in Python even.
