Comment on LPython: Novel, Fast, Retargetable Python Compiler

This is dope, I think the benchmarks of speed for python marks it way slower than C++, JS.

If this could be used in mainstream web dev with the level of speed detailed, python might eat Javascript's lunch.

*bias - python obsessed

Speed isn't usually high on the list for web development, I create APIs for fintech and we use nestJS for the back end, and nest is definitely slower but you get a lot of benefits that make it completely worth it.

Auto swagger generation, validation pipes and so on.

completely fair, fintech is a beast that requires a lot of blood sweat and tears
