They used to open source the code after 5 years, but I think they stopped open sourcing their games after Carmack left. It could just be that they started using other proprietary components in their code though. Would've loved to read

I wonder why they released the source code for this one. Is it purely because of the principles, or did they have a legal requirement since the old one is also GPL licensed? I'm assuming they don't have legal requirements since th

Widely used libraries for python such as SciPy, PyTorch, TensorFlow, Numpy all drop down to lower level languages (C/C++/Fortran). I haven't seen many people doing ML in Python without one of these libraries, so I'd say

It is unlikely people would use Python if it didn't rely on C code. If your ML model takes hours when it can take minutes, or takes days when it can take hours, you will move away. You could move away to another language or a faster in
