minus-square_stranger_@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up9·edit-22 days agoThe article quotes the docs which say negative 3 to 30, which is weird but honest. I wonder if the - is a typo, but probably not.

minus-squaredeadcream@sopuli.xyzlinkfedilinkarrow-up15arrow-down2·2 days agoNah, 330% improvement won’t even bring it close to JavaScript. Python is slow.
minus-squareKacarottlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 day agoTo be fair, for what it is it’s got decent speed. Many other interpreted langs are similar or slower. But Javascript is also unreasonably fast for what it is, the optimisations in big JS engines are kinda insane.
