too bad python is the least energy efficient programming language, by a lot. It's like rolling coal of programming.

  It's energy inefficient like a school bus, not inefficient for the sake of it, but because it's a decent way to shuttle passengers of all experience levels through all weather.

    Do you seriously think that 20 cars are more economic than a single bus? Python performance problems are exaggerated for many use-cases (hot paths are not written in Python e.g., matching regexes happens in C code(re,regex), parsing xml too (elementtree, lxml), sqlite, numpy,scipy (C, Fortran), etc. Cython makes it trivial to drop to C level where necessary)

  Python might not be energy efficient in the hardware it is definitely efficient in the wetware.
