      Go might be a close 2nd language wise but not the others. All of the above have a pretty narrow application range too. Even with a good lamguage, you would have to have the libraries too and pypi is pretty big.

        All three of those languages have library ecosystems at least as good as Python’s. Typescript is just as easy to learn and as fast to write as Python. I don’t see why you’d think Python is faster. If I add up all the time I’ve lost to Python’s terrible tooling it’s quite a lot slower!

        Rust is definitely harder to learn - I’ll give you that. But once you have learnt it it’s just as fast as Typescript and Python. Especially if your “fast to write” metric measures to when you program is correct.
