Python Speed Without the Pain
Key Takeaways
Mojo replaces Python for performance-critical code with Rust-level speed
Full Transcript
This is the cool thing is it's binding free. So think about like so today again sorry I I get excited about this. I forget how tragic the world is without outside of our walls. Um the thing we're competing with is if you have a big blob of Python code which a lot of us do. You build it build it build it build it performance becomes a problem. Okay what do you do? Well you have a couple of different things. You can say I'm going to rewrite my entire application in Rust or something right? Some people do that. The other thing you can do is you can say okay I'm going to use pibind or nanobind or some rust thingy and rewrite a part of my module the the performance critical part and now I have to have this binding logic and this build system goop and all this complexity around I have rust code over here and I have Python code over here oh by the way you now have to hire people who can work on Rust and Python and like that like this is this fragments your team it's very difficult to hire Rust people like I love them but it's there's just too few of them right and so we're doing is we're saying, "Okay, well, let's keep the languages basically the
Original Description
