  • What's up with modern Python programmers rewriting everything in Rust?

    Dude, it's called CPython for a reason.

    IMHO CPython means Core Python, not C Python.

    It is, as I recall, a term for the reference implementation of Python, which was written in C... In contrast to things like Jython -- Python implemented using Java.

    Yes, it is a reference. That's why it is called "Core Python". The "C"
    has nothing to do with the C programming language. It may well be
    written in any language. So far it is "C" language.
