Another related point is to increase eating raw/uncooked food. I'm noticing how much less I eat as I decrease cooked food portions. It may be easier or better than outright fasting.

Of course, I am only referring to certain veggies or soaking things like peas/beans/lentils in water overnight (instead of cooking). Please don't eat raw meat or anything after you see my message!

Python is not perfect and languages do evolve. Maybe Rust or Go or something new will take over the world. But there's a trade-off between developer time and execution time and you can't focus on just one. There's also the benefit of a large ecosystem of libraries (and talent, if you are a large enterprise) when you embrace Python that may not yet be available in some other newer languages.

Prototyping usually involves working with existing code base and the ecosystem, although if you are building a brand new product or application, your context may be different.

Maybe you have the luxury of rewriting that others don't have. Do you rewrite to assembly? That's going to be really fast you know!

With a proper test framework, people can and are building large scale applications. There are plenty of ways to optimize performance without a complete rewrite. Python is really Python+C to a large extent.

You have to give credit to JupyterCon for inviting him! Most of his issues relate to Jupyter, he has/had not seen JupyterLab. You can trust that many of these issues will get worked out in the long run. I have nothing against VS Code but Jupyter(Lab) didn't win the ACM Software System award (Nobel price for software) for nothing.

The next generation of Jupyter, JupyterLab is turning into a whole IDE/platform, not just a notebook. They are also trying to incorporate the monaco editor which drives VS Code. Wouldn't that be a better solution?
