No, it's 25% tariff on runtime resources. Time to switch to Musk-flavored lisp, and Make America Functional Again! Or C+Trump, if unsafe efficiency is what you're after.

The problem with MuskLISP is that the only way to check the value of a variable is to delete it and see what breaks.

Yeah, but the capitalist machine is already hooked on it. They're hooked on the free efficiency gainz.

And don't forget Canadian oil and auto parts - those ones are pretty much sector-killing if they died suddenly. Mexico controls the supply of vegetables.

Really, any idea that the (US) government only cares about money should be dead now, unless you're willing to introduce massive amounts of conspiracy theory to explain the disconnect.

Numpy is good for that. But, I gravitate toward naturally faster langs where I don't need to import a library for speed. I use Python for simple, dumb scripts.

You just perform all matrix operations in assembly?

Not what I'm saying. Just saying if I need speed, I'd use a naturally faster language.

I like lower languages as well well, but everything doesn’t need to be built in C/C++/Rust and so on.
