10x faster sure! https://benchmarksgame-team.pages.debian.net/benchmarksgame/... this is not true in the context of this project because I'm limited to I/O speed, but oh well.

time I spend typing: 10%. time I spend thinking about how to optimize slow convoluted pythonic one liners: 60%.

seriously people need to get over verbosity. its literally not an issue. problems usually arise from fucking condensed one liners that you need 10 minutes of thinking to unpack.

vs oh no.... I need to write 3 additional lines to declare the data's structure..... i'm so slowed down.

10x more type safe as well!

Python actually has generics, though.

So does Go, soon (TM)

But it's not really a big deal in either case, I've never seen generics used in Python and aside from when developing libraries I've never needed them in Go.
