I am interested in Mojo but this is not the way of comparing languages. The author seems to be novice Rust user with no practical experience in serious Rust projects.
They are comparing orthogonal components and features. CoW works in Rust as well, you can use impl Into for much greater performance and ease of use. dbg macro being questioned is just farcical, it's use of T is justified cause it returns T back. You can't accept &T and return T in Rust.
Furthermore I am not sure what they are trying to prove with this article. I would use Mojo if it was open source, and even just 10-20x faster than Python rather than 100x if it supported entirety of Python ecosystem.
And I work in Open Source AI Platforms as my day job. Why write this nonsensical post, is this for clicks??
If I see another post like this I might just stop caring about Mojo from now on.
Why pay attention when devs are more interested in flexing than making their work open source? Is this some sort of scam? Will you make it Business Source License? Will and when will it support all of Python ecosystem? Are alot more important questions for me.
Also perhaps improve Python's tooling while at it. Astral.sh folks made ruff and uv, Prefix folks made rip, pixi and rattler-build... Maybe now improve something else?
