The async await implementation in python and basic python threading is concurrent under IO. No conflation.

asyncio is meant to be "faster" for IO heavy tasks and low compute. The benchmark tests requests per second which is indeed directly testing what you expect it to test. It's been discussed before but the outcome of that discu

The tests aren't compute bound. They are testing requests per second. It's testing biased towards IO, not compute. Please read the article.

They max out the speed with tests. It does use libuv. Uvicorn is the indicator as it uses libuv underneath. If you heard of Gunicorn, Uvicorn is the version of Gunicorn with libUV, hence the name.

Wasn't there an article about how the async syntax was benchmarked to actually be slower than the traditional way of using threads? What's the current story on python async? reference: http://calpaterson.com/asyn

Containers are pretty good. My current company uses C++ and CMake and they eschewed containers for nix. I can assure you with nix and cmake it's 1000x more complicated than it needs to be.

Any language that can be compiled is by design suited for IDE tooling. Think about it, if a compiler can analyze the code then so can an IDE. An example of a language that can't be analyzed by IDE tooling is the English language. Case

- full remote development suite with source synced onto remote server while IDE utilizes remote libraries and and remote compiler tool chain for code analysis. - learning curve thats significantly smaller despite larger feature set.
