Imagine how much less compute capacity we would need if Ruby and Python were as fast as .net core.
We're talking a lot about doing something for the environment, it could start with using "fast enough" languages.
Of course we need to find a compromise between performances and ease of use. So I wouldn't abandon .net core for Ruby or Python, but I would for something as performant (or better ofc) but friendlier to use.
